Washer & Dryer Removal in Dothan, AL

Getting a new washer and dryer is exciting until you realize the delivery crew won't always take the old ones. Or they'll take them for a fee that seems high for what they're actually doing. Dothan Junk Removal Co. picks up old washers, dryers, and laundry appliances - same-day in most cases.

What We Remove

• Top-load and front-load washing machines
• Electric and gas dryers
• Combo washer/dryer units

Gas vs. Electric Dryers - What You Need to Know

If you have a gas dryer, the gas line needs to be disconnected and capped before we arrive. This is a quick job for a plumber or appliance technician - often a 15-minute service call. We don't disconnect gas lines; that's licensed work. If your new dryer installer capped it, you're already set.

Electric dryers: unplug from the 240V outlet and we handle the rest.

Do I Need to Drain the Washing Machine?

Run a spin cycle to remove as much water as possible. Disconnect the water supply hoses (there are two - hot and cold). Most washing machines have a small residual amount of water in the drum and hoses that will drain out during loading. We're used to it - just make sure the supply lines are disconnected before we load it.

Can Old Washers Be Donated?

A working washing machine in decent condition can find a home. Local nonprofits, transitional housing programs, and individuals in need often want working laundry appliances. Post on Facebook Marketplace with 'free to whoever can pick up.' A working washer rarely sits unclaimed for more than a day.

A non-working washer (our more common pickup) goes to appliance recycling for the steel - washers are mostly steel and have good scrap value.

Timing With New Appliance Delivery

The ideal sequence: call us 1–2 days before your new appliance delivery. We haul the old ones, the delivery crew installs the new ones into a clear space. Delivery crews work faster and are less likely to have 'can't take the old ones' situations when the appliance is staged for easy pickup vs. buried in a laundry room corner.

Commercial Laundry Equipment

Managing a laundromat or an apartment complex with shared laundry? Commercial washers and dryers are heavier and require a larger crew. Call us first and describe the equipment so we send the right crew size.
