  • How to disconnect and remove a Washing Machine. First Unplug before starting anything, then unscrew hot and cold water hoses. If you want you can disconnect the outflow hose too and Bob's your uncle not too hard to do.

    Before you do this next time: After cutting the water via shutoff valves, run the washer on a rinse and drain cycle to draw most of that water out of those hoses. Then unplug it and undo all of your hoses. Way less of a mess.

      thats what i did with mineon "drain and spin" but didnt shut the valves off, does it make a difference? i have to shut off my main water valve and im worried about it pulling air through the lines or pushing air if thats even possible.

    We just get the conventional ones usually it’s a shame because the old ones last much longer than the new ones. They just don’t make stuff like they used to. I heard about a refrigerator somebody found from the 1920s plugged in it worked.

    • @TomLeeman

      Well, there’s definitely something going to your drain or sewer line. I would leave that because you don’t want to remove in case in the future someone wants to use it.

      An old ones that I’ve been there for a long time sometimes you have a broken valve that won’t turn your on and off for your water. What you can do is bend the hose just like we did when we were kids to keep the water from coming out but you’ll have to use the same hose, you could wrap a tie around it to hold it like that until you reconnected to the new washer or you could to turn off the water to the house
