Refrigerator removal in Winters.

A collection calendar is not a refrigerator appointment

Winters publishes separate Waste Management calendars north and south of Grant Avenue and links to bulky-waste information. Those regular collection routes do not by themselves confirm a refrigerator pickup. Check appliance eligibility and arrangements directly with the provider before setting a unit outside. If you need removal from inside the home, tell us about the carrying work when requesting an estimate.

Describe where the appliance actually sits

Give us the full Winters address and tell us whether the refrigerator is in the kitchen, garage or another building on the property. Include gate openings, steps and the route to the truck. A photograph of the refrigerator alone cannot show a narrow passage or an indirect exit route, so add pictures of the exit path as well.

Preserve the chance of another useful life

If the refrigerator still cools properly, share its known condition rather than assuming age alone makes it waste. Working appliances may enter our free community giveaways and do not carry the recycling fee, while the pickup service is still paid. Disclose intermittent cooling or other faults so we can assess reuse honestly instead of passing a problem to another household.

Confirm a destination before choosing self-haul

The City of Winters provides a Yolo County Central Landfill contact alongside local recycling resources. Ask the receiving facility specifically about a refrigerator, current acceptance and charges before loading one. A general recycling listing is not confirmation that a particular site can receive your appliance; checking first can prevent an unnecessary return trip.

Prepare the contents and connections

Remove retained food and personal belongings, and tell us about any water connection, leaks or fitted cabinetry before the visit. We need to agree on what is ready for hauling and what needs separate preparation. Include any additional appliances in the original request so the truck-space assessment covers the complete pickup.

A clear price before we start.

Our value of excellence starts with an accurate onsite estimate. We do not raise the price for the agreed work because we underestimated the space it would take. If the items fill less space than expected, we bring the price down. Additional items or a changed scope are discussed before they are added.

Arrange your pickup.

Call, text or book online. Share the city, full service address, complete item list and access details. We review the route, work time and truck space before confirming a one-hour arrival window. Field appointments are Monday through Saturday; you can contact us seven days a week.
