Appliance removal in Los Ranchos de Albuquerque, NM
Los Ranchos sits inside Albuquerque on the map, but it has its own trash contract, so the City's free large-item pickup may not reach your driveway.
Who takes what in Los Ranchos de Albuquerque
Bernalillo County, about 6 road miles from downtown Albuquerque. Rules change, so call the office named here before you load up.
| Trash hauler | Waste Management, under a Village contract (Village services page). |

When a hauler makes sense here
Village code sets large minimum lots in some districts and long setbacks along Rio Grande Blvd (Village code). A long lot can mean a long walk from the laundry room to the street, so tell us where the truck can park and how far the appliance has to travel.
If you have a gate, measure it. A refrigerator on a dolly needs a little more width than the fridge itself.
