Old Furnace Removal Services for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
Do you have an old furnace in your basement taking up valuable space? Many times when people in Scranton have a new furnace installed, the plumber does not remove the old one!
The reason for this is because old cast iron furnaces can weigh over 6,000 pounds! They are extremely heavy and cumbersome, so many plumbers decide to leave them behind.
If you have a furnace that you want to disappear, have no fear – A+ Enterprises is here! We are the furnace removal professionals in Scranton and Wilkes-Barre.
How much does old furnace removal cost?
The average price to dismantle and remove an old cast iron furnace is around $1,200. That includes the disassembly, breaking down, hauling out, and recycling the pieces of the furnace.
While there is some scrap value in furnace removal, it does not nearly offset the labor cost to dismantle an old furnace.
Factors that can affect the pricing of an old furnace include the type, size, and location. For example, a small gas hot air furnace removal may only cost $300. Whereas removing a large gas steam furnace tucked away in a basement can cost over $2,000!
Scrap value of an old furnace
Many customers ask us what type of scrap value their old furnace will bring in. The scrap value of a furnace depends on the weight of it as well as the material it is made out of.
For example’s sake, let’s figure an average cast iron furnace weighs 4,000 pounds. Since it is in large pieces and not clean, the furnace will be considered tin and will be paid as such.
At Ben Weitsman of Scranton, tin is selling for $130 per gross ton. Therefore, this 4,000 pound furnace brings in a total of $236 in scrap value. While that may sound like a good amount of money, the amount of time and labor to remove the furnace was much higher than the scrap value.
