Refrigerators & Freezers:
Have you ever looked at your electric bill and wondered why the bill is so high? Have you only been at the house to sleep and then go back to work, but the electric bill keeps climbing at a steady pace? The answer to those common issues could be that your refrigerator or freezer needs to be replaced.
Refrigerators and freezers have an average lifespan of around 7-10 years. These items could be using electricity without you knowing about it. An old refrigerator could use over 1000 kilowatts of energy while the new energy-saving refrigerators can use as low as 600-800 kilowatts per year. With the way inflation is in the United States, the kilowatt difference in refrigerators and freezers could put money back in your pocket overall.
Appliance Weights
Refrigerators and Freezers are known to be one of the heaviest types of appliances. A side-by-side refrigerator can weigh an average of 300-325 pounds. If you think that is heavy, refrigerators used to weigh twice as much in the 1950s. They weigh so much because of the components that lie within them such as an evaporator, condenser, hermetic compressor (very heavy component), electric motor, and much more. So, once you decide it is time to replace the heavy refrigerator or freezer, you might ask yourself “How do I get rid of it?”.
You are in Luck!
VOTS Junk Removal has the workforce and availability to take away that old refrigerator. What will happen to the appliance once it is taken? Refrigerators & Freezers have a harmful environmental hazard called CFC. This element can be a real Eco problem if the items are not taken to the proper recycling facilities. Our appliance removal team will not only provide the removal service, but they will make sure to dispose of the refrigerator/freezer in an Eco-friendly matter. Not only will you get a fast and friendly service, but your mind can stay at ease knowing that no harm to the environment will come from it as well.
Stoves & Ovens & Microwaves:
While you are putting in a new refrigerator or freezer to help with the electric bill, replacing other appliances might be able to help with energy saving as well. An old stove and oven can vampire your electricity as well. Sometimes a person can fix this problem by replacing the bake/boil element in the oven, but it would be easier to replace the whole unit.
Microwaves can become an energy problem and a safety problem after a certain amount of time. The average microwave needs to be replaced every 4-6 years. There are many ways a person can tell if your microwave should be replaced. A couple of examples of a bad microwave would be if the keypad buttons stopped working or had issues, the food does not cook the way it is supposed to, and some old microwaves can even break down and create sparks (which could become a house fire).
You are in Luck!
Give VOTS Junk Removal a call to take away those items and properly dispose of them. It does not matter if it is just the microwave or just the stove, we will make sure they get to the proper recycling station to be disassembled properly.
Dishwashers:
Do you have to wash your dishes before putting them in the dishwasher? Are you tired of your spouse/significant other thinking you are the dishwasher? Do you want to get brownie points with your wife to live a better life? Then it is time to upgrade or replace that old dishwasher (the appliance).
The average lifespan of a dishwasher can range anywhere from 7-10 years. When the dishwasher is not working correctly, there is the option of ordering replacement parts or hiring a service agent to come and fix it. Sometimes, the repair costs to fix the dishwasher are almost the same price it would be to replace it. You can always try and sell the dishwasher or donate it to a thrift store. What if you do not have enough time or space to store it until you sell it or haul it to the donation center? What would you do with the old dishwasher?
You are in Luck!
VOTS Junk Removal would be happy to take away those items and help you to get the brownie points you might need for a rainy day. No one enjoys washing the dishes. A good option for this problem is to give us a call to get rid of the old one. Just remember that “A Happy Wife Is a Happy Life”.
Water Heaters:
Water heaters can be a very painful job to do when it comes to replacing a broken or unwanted water heater. They are usually in a space that is not easy to get to, they are very heavy, and you could be dealing with a safety issue if the water heater were leaking onto the floorboard. In addition, you must drain the water out of the tank; which, can make the job last much longer than you thought it should.
With technology on the uprising, water heaters have changed in many different ways. There are still conventional storage water heaters, but they also have water heaters that are tankless solar power and tank-less water heaters. Even though they have the technology for a tankless water heater, not everyone can afford the price and they continue to stick with conventional tank water heaters. “What will I do with the old tank when I replace it?” you might ask.
You are in Luck!
The best decision that you could make is to give VOTS Junk Removal a call to haul it away. Even if you manage to drain the water, disconnect all the lines, and haul it outside the house, you are still going to need a decent size truck to be able to manage that bulky item. VOTS Junk Removal has the proper equipment to haul away heavy and bulky items.
Air Conditioners & Heaters:
Air conditioners and Heaters are particularly important to a household. Depending on your location, you may rely on one more than the other. You would rely more on heaters the farther north that you live, and you would rely on air conditioners the farther south that you live. Either way, you would want the unit to do its job and to make it provides you and your family with a level that is comfortable to you in your own house. With air conditioners and heater appliances being such an important appliances in everyone’s household, there are many different options that a person can go with.
Heater
Heater options have made it so that you can heat the whole house or just heat one particular room. They still have the old-fashioned wood heaters, but not too many people like to go outside and chop wood all day for it. Many people have a central heating system that runs through vents through the floor or the attic. There are also energy-saving space heaters that can help keep that specific area at a certain temperature.
Air conditioners has more options than heaters, but you have to decide which air conditioner option works the best for you and your family. Many people that have a small living space buy air conditioners that you put together in one of the windows. They have the same concept as a space heater but instead of putting out heat, it puts out cold air. There is the traditional central air system that pushes cold air through the vents that run under the floor or through the ceiling depending on how the house was built. The third option for air conditioners is to install a ductless split unit system. It is a system that combines the window unit with a space unit, and it is ductless.
You are in Luck!
It does not matter if you have a small window unit or a large and bulky central air unit, VOTS Junk Removal’s appliance removal team has the experience and the equipment to be able to remove those items away for good. “What about the chemicals inside those units?” you might ask. VOTS Junk Removal takes all appliances to the proper recycling facility so that it does not hurt the environment.
Electronics Removal:
Many different types of electronics are circulating through this world of technology. Many electronics were bulky such as old-style televisions. The old style of televisions had Cathode Ray Tubes (CRTs) in them. They were very heavy because the material that the CRTs were made of was a very thick type of glass that needed to be able to withstand the high atmospheric type of pressure. The CRT types of television lifespan could easily reach anywhere from 20-30 years. Because of the longevity and the pure size of the older style of televisions, many people do not want to bother with the struggle to get them removed.
Even if you build up the courage and strength to want to get rid of your electronics, the problem still arises of where to take it. There are many elements in old-style televisions, flat screens, keyboards, and even computer monitors that can be hazardous to the environment if they are not disposed of properly. You cannot just take it to a regular landfill to dispose of it. “Then what am I supposed to do to get rid of it then?” you might ask.
You are in Luck!
VOTS Junk Removal takes any type of electronics to the proper facility to be recycled. It does not matter if it is a small piece or an old giant television. We have the proper equipment and professional staff that can handle huge electronic items. Our fast and Eco-friendly staff will provide you with a service that will have you feeling like you are watching a great television show and we will have you wanting a sequel.

Low Country Shrimper Restaurant
Have you ever wandered what happens to athletes after they are done playing their sport? Dontrelle Willis used to be a all-time pitcher in baseball and now he is a owner of Low Country Shrimper Restaurant in Maudlin SC (Click Here).
“I gave up too many home runs, so I fry fish now,” said Deas, who owns the Low Country Shrimper in Mauldin.
The restaurant is a the staple in the Golden Strip city’s food scene and Deas is building on his success there with the addition of a second business, an ice cream shop called Pop’s Cabin Creamery next to the Mauldin Cultural Center.
Gosnell Cabin
Not only does Dontrelle Willis own the Low Country Shrimper Restaurant, he also opened up an ice cream parlor in 2021 called Pop’s Cabin Creamery. Next to it is the Gosnell Cabin that has a huge historical story of its own. On the cabin itself, it is inscribed:
The history of the Gosnell cabin originates 200 years ago. The cabin, with original dimensions of twenty-five by eighteen feet, was built out of twelve-inch thick by eight-inch wide beams of heart pine, and it was built to last.
Gresham Callahan is the first attributed inhabitants of the Gosnell log cabin. According to a log cabin historian, the cabin initially started in the Cherokee Indian style of construction and was finished using the English method. In other words, the cabin was begun by an Indian and finished by a white man. Also, the cabin originally had a dirt floor that was later jacked up and a wooden floor added.
Gresham Callahan first appeared in the record books on the 1810 census. This indicates that he was a resident of Greenville County after 1800, but before 1810. Apparently, Mr. Callahan had a number of different monikers, one of which was “Old Indian.”
Origin
The cabin was originally located in northern Greenville County, within a short distance of historic Poinsett Bridge. Poinsett Bridge was completed in 1819, and the cabin was used as the construction headquarters while the bridge was under construction. Poinsett Bridge is the oldest bridge still standing in South Carolina.
At some point the ownership of the cabin passed to John H. Goodwin. In 1875 John Goodwin sold the cabin and 300 acres to Rev. John Jack Gosnell for $351.00. Three generations of Gosnells lived in the cabin until 1941.
The Boy Scouts bought the property for a camp in 1927. The last member of the Gosnell family to live in the cabin, Luther Gosnell, served as the caretaker of the property until his death in 1941. The name the Boy Scouts used for their new camp was derived from Gresham Callahan. The name chosen was “Camp Old Indian.”
The dry accounting of dates and numbers do little to reflect the colorful history of the Gosnell log cabin. At a meeting on Aug. 10, 2008 with several granddaughters of Luther Gosnell (Carol Gosnell Long, Tammy Poore Mason and Kathy Gosnell Janson) the ancient walls of pine echoed again the joys and sadness of life as it will never be known again in Greenville County.
Perhaps as many as ten babies were born in the cabin. Luther’s wife, Lizzie Dill Gosnell, died of measles in 1928 while sitting in a chair in front of the fire. An uncle had his leg amputated on the kitchen table (the table was carried out first).
The Life
In 1941 Luther has an epileptic seizure in front of the fireplace. The attacked prevented control of his body and his spasms drove his legs into the hot fire. It was three days before anyone found him and he died of gangrene in the old Greenville General Hospital.
Life was tough in the foothills of Greenville County. Bears in search of food frightened little girls who peeped out at them through the chinks in the logs while remaining deathly still. Panthers, rattlesnakes and copperheads added to the danger.
Luther made his living as a farmer and a rock mason. There are rumors that he was a moonshiner and a bootlegger. The main meal for his family was corn meal and water, which also happen to be the main ingredients for corn liquor.
After 1941 the cabin remained on the Camp Old Indian property. It fell into disrepair and the camp did not have the resources to keep it up. Sam Phillips, Dave Chesson and Tim Brett were instrumental to having the cabin removed and restored at the Mauldin Cultural Center grounds. The cabin is undoubtedly one of the oldest remaining structures in Greenville County.
