Appliance Sales questions, answered by experts

While many junk haulers have restrictions on taking hazardous materials, most will be able to take appliances that use refrigerants, like refrigerators and air conditioners. Always check with the junk removal company first to find out if there are extra fees or preparation steps for removing appliances that use refrigerants.

Disconnect the appliance, clear pathways, and empty contents to facilitate safe and efficient removal.

While they’re historically different, the two terms are interchangeable in the contemporary world. Nowadays, both stoves and ranges refer to the combination of a cooktop and an oven. The cooktop is sometimes referred to as the “stovetop.” Modern stoves and ranges are powered by either gas or electricity and last 13 to 15 years on average.

The most obvious sign that it’s time to repair or replace your microwave is that it is no longer heating food. If you notice your food coming out cold or not as warm as it used to, call a small appliance repair technician for help.

Some other signs your microwave is in need of service include:

It’s making strange noises during operation.
The interior plate no longer spins.
You notice strange smells or see smoke.
It’s close to or more than eight years old.

Some of the most common microwave repair problems include magnetron failure and a plate that won’t spin. When a magnetron fails, the microwave won’t efficiently heat your food—a frustrating albeit common experience. Meanwhile, a plate that doesn’t spin won’t thoroughly heat food, even if the magnetron works.
