Appliance Removal Guide: Refrigerators, Washers, and Dryers
By Fred Siegel, Fred’s Junk Removal · La Jolla 92037
Appliance Removal Guide: Refrigerators, Washers, and Dryers is a question San Diego households ask every week — especially in La Jolla (92037) and along Prospect Street. Fred Siegel started Fred’s Junk Removal as a locally owned, veteran-owned crew. Twenty-one years and more than 50,000 jobs later, we still quote before we lift. This guide is written from the truck, not from a national call center.
Jobs near La Jolla Cove look different from a canyon lot in Ocean Beach (92107) or a condo dock in San Ysidro (92173). We run Prospect Street, Newport Avenue, and San Ysidro Boulevard on ordinary weekdays. Landmarks we pass on those routes include La Jolla Cove, OB Pier, and San Ysidro Port of Entry. If your pile sits on a driveway, in a residential garage, or in an alley, curbside is usually the better value. If the item is inside, upstairs, or in the backyard, book full-service and we carry it.
San Diego trash routes will not take a mattress or box spring. Tying one to a sedan roof is how people get cited on I-8 or leave a soggy mattress in an alley off University Avenue. We haul singles, queens, kings, and matching box springs daily. Crews fold, strap, and stack them so they stay on the truck. Fred’s is the most reviewed mattress hauling service in town after 50,000-plus jobs.
Before you guess at a dumpster, open the price list for single items and the Junk Removal Cost Calculator for mixed piles. Tiers run from a small load under 200 lbs at $69 curbside up through a full dump bed. The same calculator is the junk removal cost calculator app on this site — tap categories, add pieces, and get a tier with Book now.
See services for furniture, mattresses, appliances, e-waste, fitness equipment, garage cleanouts, yard waste, and light remodel debris. What we haul lists couches, grills, lawn mowers, bags of household junk, and custom-quote items like hot tubs and pianos. We do not take hazardous paint, fuel, or chemicals. Text (619) 245-9957 a photo from La Jolla, Ocean Beach, or anywhere in San Diego County and we will tell you if it rides.
Fred’s remains San Diego’s most reviewed junk hauling service because the total is posted before the truck moves. No purple mystery fees. No day-of add-ons for stairs you already photographed. If the load is bigger than tier 10, text Fred. If it is a sofa on Prospect Street near La Jolla Cove, you already know the drill: quote, window, sweep, gone.
