That old refrigerator humming away in your Alpine garage has finally given up the ghost. Or maybe the washer in the laundry room sprung a leak, the dryer is making sounds that no dryer should make, or you just upgraded the kitchen and now there’s a perfectly good (but very heavy) dishwasher sitting on the patio. Whatever the situation, getting rid of large appliances out here in the foothills isn’t exactly a quick errand. Between the steep driveways off Tavern Road, the winding drives through Harbison Canyon, and the fact that most appliances weigh more than your average linebacker, this is one job worth handing off to the pros.
At Cornerstone Cleanouts, we’ve been helping Alpine homeowners and property managers haul away unwanted appliances safely, legally, and without anyone throwing out their back. Here’s how we make it easy.
Appliances We Remove in Alpine
If it plugs in, runs on gas, or used to keep something cold, hot, or clean, there’s a good chance we’ll take it off your hands. Our team handles appliance removal for single-family homes, rental properties, and small businesses throughout Alpine and the surrounding San Diego County backcountry.
- Refrigerators and freezers — including chest freezers, mini fridges, and wine coolers
- Washers and dryers — front-load, top-load, stacked units, and gas dryers
- Stoves, ovens, and ranges — electric, gas, and built-in models
- Dishwashers and trash compactors
- Microwaves — countertop and over-the-range
- Water heaters — tank and tankless
- HVAC units, window AC units, and dehumidifiers
- Small appliances — toaster ovens, coffee makers, vacuums, and more
We’ve cleared out everything from a single broken fridge in Boulder Creek to full appliance swaps for property managers turning over rentals near Viejas. No job is too small, and the bigger ones don’t scare us either.
Safe Disposal of Refrigerants and Hazardous Materials
Here’s where things get serious for a second. Refrigerators, freezers, AC units, and dehumidifiers contain refrigerants like Freon that are regulated under federal EPA rules. You can’t just toss these at the curb or drop them at the dump — improper disposal harms the environment and can result in real fines for the homeowner.
When we remove a refrigerant-containing appliance from your Alpine home, we transport it to a certified processing facility where the refrigerant is safely recovered by licensed technicians before the unit is dismantled. The same goes for water heaters with potential gas line considerations and older appliances that may contain mercury switches or PCBs. You don’t have to figure any of this out — we handle the paperwork and the proper handoff so you can rest easy.
Recycling and Keeping Stuff Out of Landfills
Appliances are roughly 75% metal by weight, which means they’re prime candidates for recycling rather than landfilling. We partner with local San Diego County recycling facilities to make sure as much of your old appliance as possible gets a second life as raw material.
- Steel, copper, and aluminum components are recovered and recycled
- Working appliances in good condition are often donated to local nonprofits
- Hazardous components are separated and processed by certified facilities
- Only what truly can’t be reused or recycled goes to the landfill
It’s a small thing, but for folks who care about keeping the Alpine community and surrounding wild spaces clean, it matters.
How Appliance Removal Works — and Same-Day Service
We’ve kept the process about as simple as we can make it:
- Call or text us with a quick description of what you need hauled and your Alpine address
- Get an upfront quote — no hidden fees, no surprise add-ons
- Pick a time — often same-day or next-day, including weekends

- You pay only when the job is done and you’re happy with the result
You don’t need to drag the old washer to the curb or unhook the fridge yourself. Our crew brings the dollies, the straps, the truck, and the muscle. Whether you’re in a tucked-away cabin off Tavern Road or managing a rental property in Harbison Canyon, we’ll come to you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to disconnect my appliance before you arrive?
Nope, you don’t have to lift a finger. Our crew will safely disconnect your refrigerator, washer, dryer, dishwasher, or other appliance as part of the service. We do ask that gas appliances have their gas lines shut off at the valve for safety, but if you’re not sure how to do that, just let us know when you call and we’ll walk you through it.
How much does appliance removal cost in Alpine?
Pricing depends on the size and number of appliances, plus access at your property. Single appliances typically start at a flat rate, and we offer better per-item pricing when you have multiple units to remove. We’ll give you a firm, upfront quote before any work begins — no surprises, no hidden fees, and no obligation if you decide it’s not the right fit.
Can you really come the same day?
In most cases, yes. We keep our schedule flexible specifically because junk removal needs tend to be urgent — a leaking water heater or a broken fridge isn’t something most folks want to live with for a week. Call or text us in the morning and there’s a strong chance we can have a crew at your Alpine home that same afternoon, including weekends.
What happens to my old appliance after you haul it away?
We take recycling and proper disposal seriously. Refrigerants are recovered by certified facilities, metal components are recycled, and appliances still in working order are often donated to local San Diego nonprofits. Only the small percentage that truly can’t be reused or recycled ends up in the landfill, which keeps your old appliance out of the environment as much as possible.
