Old tenements and new towers, one flat price

The Lower East Side is two neighborhoods in one — century-old tenement walk-ups on the side streets and glassy new luxury towers along Delancey and Essex. We handle both. In a walk-up, our two-person crew straps a 200-pound fridge to a dolly and walks it down the stairs; in a tower, we email a $1M COI to management within the hour and book the freight-elevator window. Either way it's a flat per-item price with no walk-up, elevator, or high-rise surcharge — a fridge is $221 anywhere.

Old fridges, freezers, and window ACs contain refrigerant, and EPA Section 608 requires a certified handler recover it before disposal — the reason DSNY won't take a fridge from the curb without a certified tag. We handle the recovery and the certification, included in your quote. You disconnect it; we do the heavy carry.

Metal appliances go to a scrap recycler. Upload a photo for an exact price and we'll text a window or book the freight slot.

How it works

1. Snap a photo

Photograph the appliance. We price the exact piece in seconds and send a COI if your tower needs one.

2. Pick a window

We text an arrival window for walk-ups, or reserve the freight-elevator slot for the towers — often same-day.

3. We haul it out

Vetted two-person crew carries it down or rides the freight elevator, recovers refrigerant where required, and scraps it.

I'm in a tenement walk-up — can you carry a fridge down?

Yes. A refrigerator is 200+ pounds and most LES side-street buildings are walk-ups, so it's a two-person dolly-and-strap carry down the stairs — included, no walk-up surcharge. A standard fridge is $221 from any floor.

My new LES tower needs a COI and freight elevator. Can you handle that?

Yes. The new towers off Delancey and Essex require a Certificate of Insurance and a reserved freight-elevator slot. We email a $1M COI to management within the hour and book the freight window.

Is the EPA refrigerant fee extra for a fridge or AC?

No — it's already in the price. EPA Section 608 requires refrigerant from fridges, freezers, and ACs be recovered by a certified handler before disposal, which is why DSNY won't take a fridge from the curb without a tag. We handle it; it's included.

Can you take it the same day?

Often yes, with no same-day surcharge — once any building freight window allows. Upload a photo, get an exact price, and we'll coordinate the slot.
