A city bulk appointment you get four times a year, HOAs that write letters in Gilbert and Chandler, and an ASU calendar that flips Tempe every May — the Valley's junk rulebook, one guide at a time.
The useful comparison is not brand against brand. It is priced-in-advance against priced-on-arrival — and in a metro this hot, that difference matters more…

A standard fridge is $164 and a side-by-side or French door is $183, including the carry-out and the handling. The garage fridge is $164 too, and in this…

The Valley has two furniture seasons and one furniture destroyer. Work with the first two and you will spend less. A sofa carried out is $126.
