For junk haulers
Add appliance pickups to routes you already run.
Junk haulers already have the truck, straps, labor, and local driving pattern. Appliance leads can add value to routes you are already running, especially when a pickup creates scrap money, a resale unit, or a paid cleanout upsell.

Upsell
cleanouts, extra items, haul-away work
Why it fits
You are already moving heavy things. A washer, dryer, fridge, or range is not a new business model for you. It is another stop that can fill space on the truck and create money after the route.
How to use the leads
Stack appliance pickups near paid jobs when possible. Confirm curbside or garage access before you drive. If the homeowner has extra junk, quote it separately. The appliance may be free, but the relationship can turn into a larger job.
Money paths
Some units go straight to scrap. Some can be cleaned and resold. Some are not worth touching unless they fit your route. Even a $15-$30 scrap unit makes more sense when you are already nearby.
What to avoid
Do not chase every appliance across town. Set a radius, ask for photos, and build a route. The goal is not random driving. The goal is more value from miles you were already going to drive.
