About Our Dishwasher Removal Service
A dead dishwasher is a small appliance with an annoying removal: it's hardwired or plugged behind the cabinet, connected to a water supply line and a drain hose looped into the sink plumbing, and screwed into the countertop. We uninstall built-in dishwashers properly — power isolated, water line shut and capped, drain hose disconnected at the sink, mounting brackets unscrewed — then slide the unit out over floor protection so your kitchen floor doesn't get gouged. Portable and countertop units are a simple carry. Either way, the stainless tub, steel frame, motor and copper wiring go to a metal recycler.
How Dishwasher Works in Scarborough
- Shut off the water supply valve under the sink (we'll locate it if needed)
- Disconnect power, water line and the drain hose at the sink connection
- Unscrew the mounting brackets from the countertop or cabinets
- Slide the unit out over floor protection and dolly it to the truck
- Recycle the stainless tub, frame, motor and wiring

Most dishwasher pickups are quick single-item jobs, but the uninstall details vary — hardwired vs plugged, tight cabinetry, upstairs kitchens. Text a photo of the unit (open the bottom kick plate if you can) and we'll confirm an exact quote before we come.

The main risks with a dishwasher are water and floors: residual water in the sump can dribble during the pull, so we bring towels and trays, and we always slide the unit over protection rather than dragging it across tile or hardwood.
Dishwashers are mostly recoverable metal — the stainless or polymer tub, steel frame, motor and copper wiring are separated at a metal recycler rather than landfilled.

Which Scarborough neighbourhoods do you cover for dishwasher removal?
We provide dishwasher removal throughout Scarborough, including Birch Cliff, Cliffside, Guildwood and Highland Creek. Most jobs are scheduled within 24-48 hours, and same-day service is available across Scarborough.
Do you uninstall the dishwasher or just haul it?
Both. We do the full uninstall — power, water, drain and mounting brackets — as part of the pickup. If yours is already pulled out and sitting in the garage, that works too.
My dishwasher is hardwired. Is that a problem?
Usually not — we isolate the circuit and disconnect at the junction box. If the wiring situation is unusual we'll tell you before touching anything.
Will there be water everywhere when it comes out?
There's often a cup or two of residual water in the sump. We tip the unit to drain it into a tray and protect the floor along the exit path, so your kitchen stays dry.
