Water Heater Removal
In Lombard
A dead water heater is well over a hundred pounds and still holding water. We drain it, disconnect it and carry it out, then recycle the metal.
Past a hundred pounds, and we carry it
A water heater at the end of the road is a genuine two-person lift. Loaded with water and sediment, a typical tank runs well over a hundred pounds, and it is plumbed into a spot that leaves no easy angle to carry it out. We take care of every part. We close the supply, drain the tank to empty, disconnect at the gas valve or the breaker, and bring the unit out of the house whole.
Lombard contracts with the town's hauler, and the sticker rules draw a clear line: a large item one worker can handle takes a sticker, but anything over 100 pounds or needing two workers has to be arranged with the town's hauler in advance. A full water heater sits squarely past that 100-pound mark. Rather than schedule a special pickup and still haul it up yourself, text us and we remove it. We reach Lombard from Plainfield by I-355 and I-88, same-day when the schedule allows.
Water heaters we take
Gas tank heaters
We shut the gas, break the vent and connector, drain the tank and carry it out dry.
Electric water heaters
Breaker off, top wiring freed, tank drained, then lifted out without a drag mark.
Tankless units
On-demand wall heaters come off with their bracket and lines and leave with us.
Over-100-pound tanks
The heavy tanks that would need a scheduled special pickup at the curb are simply ours to carry.
Heater and softener
Taking the softener out too keeps it to one visit and one flat price.
Pan, straps and lines
The drip pan, mounting straps and corroded flex lines ride out with the heater.
How it works in Lombard
Send a photo of the heater and the path out, and we quote one flat price by the space it takes in the trailer. No hourly clock, nothing added when we show up. Our crew drains the tank so it comes out dry, carries it up the stairs, and sweeps the area. The steel body is recycled through a scrap yard.

What Customers Are Saying
"Highly recommend On It Junk Removal. They showed up right on time, worked quickly, and handled everything with care. Communication was easy from start to finish, and the pricing was very reasonable."
"ONIT took our hot tub, waterlogged cover, AND disconnected the electricity. Nowhere else that I called would disconnect it… They were in and out within the hour with no debris or signs that they had even been there."

Questions
The town's hauler makes you arrange anything over 100 pounds or needing two workers in advance, and a full water heater is past that line. We come on your schedule and carry it out the same day when we can. Call (815) 240-0735.
Yes. We empty the tank to a hose on site so it leaves dry, since the water is the heavy, messy part.
No problem. Leakers are routine for us. We drain what is left, contain the base, and keep the floor dry on the way out.
We handle water heater removal from Plainfield across Lombard, Glen Ellyn, Villa Park, Wheaton and Downers Grove. Reach us at (815) 240-0735.
