The Old Tank Out Without a Separate Pickup

A failed water heater turns into a chore fast: it is heavy, it is full of sediment, and it usually sits in the one corner of the basement that is hardest to reach. Draining and disconnecting it safely takes a few steps most people would rather skip. We do all of it, close the valve, empty the tank, break the gas or electric connection, and carry the unit out. The tank is recycled for scrap. The price is by the load and fixed before we lift a thing.

Oswego's curbside service under state recycling law appliances and white goods like a water heater have to be scheduled as a separate paid pickup, not left with the weekly bulk item. That still leaves you dragging a drained tank out to the curb. We serve Oswego from Plainfield across Route 34 near the Fox River, handle the drain and disconnect inside, and carry the old heater out so it never touches your driveway.

Water Heaters We Remove

Gas-fired tanks

We cap and disconnect the gas before the tank leaves its spot.

Electric tanks

Breaker off, wiring disconnected, then carried out whole.

Tankless on-demand units

Wall heaters unmounted with vent and water lines left neat.

Sediment-heavy old tanks

Years of buildup make these extra heavy; the carry is still ours.

Basement and crawl-space units

We get tanks out of low, tight mechanical spaces.

Recycled for metal

The drained tank goes to a scrapper, not the trash.

Our Process

A photo of the unit and the way out is all we need to quote a flat load price. On site we drain the tank, disconnect the gas line or wiring, and carry the heater out in one go. You never touch it. Its steel shell is recycled instead of buried.

  • No separate appliance pickup to book
  • We drain the tank on site
  • Gas or electric disconnected for you
  • Carried out of basements and crawl spaces
  • Steel recycled after haul-off
  • Flat load price up front

"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."

FAQ

Water Heater Removal in Oswego
Questions

Yes. We come to you, drain and disconnect the heater, and haul it out without you booking a separate white-goods pickup or getting it to the curb.

We close the supply valve, drain the tank, and disconnect the gas or electric ourselves. If a plumber already capped it for the new unit, we simply carry the old one out.

You pay for the space the tank takes in the trailer, which for one heater is small. Text a photo to (815) 240-0735 for a flat number.

We cover Oswego along with Montgomery, Aurora, Yorkville, Plainfield and Naperville, all close to the Route 34 corridor.

Yes. If a water softener, expansion tank or old laundry tub is coming out with the heater, we load it in the same trip and price it all as one load.
