Washer & Dryer Removal

Washer & Dryer Removal questions
Clear answers before you choose a route and timing.
Can a washer and dryer be removed together?
Yes, but describe whether they are side by side, stacked, or installed under a counter.
What if the washer still has water in it?
Tell the scheduler. A wet machine is heavier and can leak along the route.
Who disconnects a gas dryer?
Arrange qualified gas disconnection before removal. A hauling crew should not be assumed to perform gas work.
