Why LoadUp

The easier way to get rid of an old AC

Hauling an air conditioner out yourself means strain, sweat, and finding someone to help. LoadUp sends experienced Loaders to handle it so you don't have to.

  • Price locked before you commit

    See your exact price before you book. No surprise fees after pickup, no charges added for stairs or tight spaces.

  • Same-day availability

    Need it gone fast? Same-day pickup is available when you book before noon, no waiting on a city bulk pickup schedule.

  • In-home, not just curbside

    Your Loaders come to wherever the unit sits, a bedroom, garage, hallway, or back room, and carry it out for you.

  • Donation & recycling first

    Old AC units are disposed of responsibly where local options allow, keeping them out of landfills when recycling is available.

What to Expect

Full-service removal breakdown

AC Unit disposal service details

Pricing for AC unit removal is based on the type and size of the unit, the number of units being picked up, and where the unit is located on your property. A window unit in a first-floor bedroom is priced differently than a heavy central AC condenser on an outdoor pad or a portable unit stored in a second-floor closet. Your upfront price reflects the specifics of your job before you book.

The unit should be detached and free to lift before your Loaders arrive. Your Loaders do not disconnect wiring, perform electrical work, or handle refrigerant removal, so any disconnection steps should be completed in advance.

AC unit types accepted for removal

LoadUp picks up all common residential air conditioning unit types, including the following.

  • Window AC unit
  • Portable air conditioner
  • Central AC condenser
  • Mini-split outdoor unit
  • Through-the-wall AC unit
  • Whole-house AC unit
  • Ductless AC unit

Options & add-ons (clearly priced)

Your booking total is transparent from the start. Optional adjustments like additional units, stairs, or extended carry distance are clearly shown during checkout so your final price is accurate and surprise-free at pickup.

Volume discounts

The more you remove, the more you save. Discounts apply in real time as items are added.

Flights of stairs

Stairs add time and labor, which is factored in upfront to keep pricing fair for everyone.

Item disassembly

For items that need to be taken apart, add disassembly to your booking during checkout.

Donation drop-off

Choose whether eligible items should be donated when possible during checkout.

Sustainability efforts

For AC units, your Loaders prioritize recycling and responsible disposal through local facilities whenever possible, since these units contain components that require special handling. Disposal outcomes vary based on unit condition and what recycling options are available in your area.

AC unit pickup typically starts around $80, though your final price depends on the type of unit, how many you're having removed, and whether you choose curbside or in-home pickup. A window unit on the ground floor will be priced differently than a central AC condenser on an outdoor pad or a portable unit stored upstairs. You'll see your exact price before you book, with no fees added at pickup.

Yes, the unit should be detached and free to lift before your Loaders arrive. Your Loaders carry, move, and haul the unit away, but they do not disconnect wiring, perform electrical work, or handle refrigerant removal. If your window unit is still mounted in the frame or your condenser is still hardwired, those steps need to be completed in advance by you or a qualified technician.

LoadUp picks up all common residential AC unit types, including window units, portable air conditioners, central AC condensers, mini-split outdoor units, through-the-wall units, and ductless units. If you have more than one unit to remove, you can add them during booking. Commercial or industrial HVAC equipment is outside the scope of this service.

That depends on the pickup type you choose at booking. If you book curbside pickup, the unit needs to be in an accessible outdoor location before your Loaders arrive. If you book in-home pickup, your Loaders will come inside and carry the unit out from wherever it sits, whether that's a bedroom, hallway, garage, or back room. You do not need to move it to the door yourself.

Your Loaders dispose of the unit responsibly, prioritizing recycling through local facilities where that option is available. AC units contain components that require special handling, so disposal is not treated the same as regular bulk trash. Outcomes vary based on unit condition and what recycling options exist in your area, so recycling cannot be guaranteed in every case.

It depends on the pickup type you booked. If you chose curbside pickup, you do not need to be home as long as the unit is placed in an accessible outdoor location before your Loaders arrive. If you chose in-home pickup, someone must be present to provide access since your Loaders need to enter your home to carry the unit out.
