Efficient Delivery & Installation Process
We pride ourselves on our expert delivery and installation services. Our professional team ensures your purchase is given the best on every step of the journey to your home for an easy and stress-free experience.
Post Product Purchase
1. You purchase an appliance or appliance package. Depending on factors like product backorders, whether your home is being renovated, etc., we may schedule delivery right away or call you days or weeks from the time of the sale to do so.
- At this point, your salesperson should discuss the delivery charges you can expect and anything you should do before delivery day arrives.
We highly recommend measuring all doorways the appliance needs to fit through as well as the final installation location ASAP. Many appliances are larger than they used to be, and we want to avoid the disappointment of being unable to fit an appliance into the space where it needs to be.
Delivery Scheduling
2. Scheduling the delivery: We deliver every day of the week except Sundays. Wednesday deliveries may be available on a limited basis and will only be offered when scheduling allows.
Delivery Day
3. On the day of the delivery: While we do not provide exact delivery times in advance, our team will contact you shortly before arrival.
- The drivers will call from cellphones. Please do not ignore calls the day of the delivery.
- Delays may occur due to factors that we cannot predict, so unfortunately, we can’t give an exact time for delivery.
- Depending on the type of appliance and your installation needs, the appliance will be delivered either by our delivery team or by a trusted independent installer. For example, we recommend independent installers to handle dishwashers, gas ranges, and gas dryers, as well as built-in appliances like cooktops and wall ovens.
Our Delivery Service Includes...
- Bringing in and setting up the new appliance (if it is a “plug and play” appliance like a washing machine or refrigerator)
- Removing packaging materials
- Removing one old appliance (we charge $15 for each removal beyond the first appliance)
- All required standard connection parts at no additional cost, including: power cords, washer hoses, dryer venting (standard configurations). We aim to make your delivery as seamless as possible. Many essential connection parts are included at no extra charge.
We utilize trusted independent installers for the following appliances:
- Dishwashers
- Gas ranges and gas dryers
- Built-in appliances like cooktops and wall ovens
- Any instances where plumbing or electrical work needs to be modified in order to install the appliance
In these cases, you are welcome to use your own installer as well. You can pick up the item(s) from the store or have Bellingham Electric deliver to your home.
How Much Does It Cost?
Local delivery to most surrounding communities by Bellingham Electric is $99 (includes Central Mass, Southern 495 Belt, most of Rhode Island). For longer distances, delivery rates may be $129 or $149 depending on location.
The cost of delivery and installation varies when an independent installer is involved, mainly because these are more complicated installation processes. For example, delivery and installation of a dishwasher or gas appliance typically starts around $300+, depending on the scope of work and location. Your salesperson will be happy to explain the estimated costs for your specific case.
Refrigerators with water lines
Bellingham Electric can connect your new refrigerator to a water line as long as the following requirements are met:
- The water line is braided stainless steel. We will not reconnect existing copper or plastic water lines to the new refrigerator. In select cases, we may be able to replace these water lines with braided stainless-steel lines.
- An adult household member is available to shut off the water main, and/or there is an easily accessible working water shut off that meets our safety standards located in the same room as the fridge.
- Other factors at the discretion of our delivery team.
Installing an icemaker kit in a refrigerator
For $79 plus the cost of the compatible icemaker kit, we can install an icemaker kit in a compatible refrigerator that does not have one factory installed.
Converting gas appliances to LP gas
We can convert gas appliances from NG to LP gas for $79 plus the cost of the kit.
Mounting an over the range microwave
If there is an outlet in the cabinet above the stove, we can replace an existing over the range microwave with a new one for $159. We cannot hardwire or install outlets, but our recommended installers can.
Dryer venting and side venting
Dryer ductwork needs to be rigid metal venting. For very short runs, "accordion-style" metal ductwork may be acceptable. We can replace short runs of plastic ductwork or other unacceptable ductwork, but if the ductwork is very long, passes through walls/roofing/etc., we cannot replace it and we cannot hook up a dryer to it.
Side venting a dryer: We can set up a dryer for side venting before delivery for an additional charge.

Which appliances have additional installation costs?
To summarize, if the installation requires working with your home's plumbing, wiring, or gas line, or requires mounting the appliance (drilling holes, messing with cabinetry, etc), or adding features not included at the factory (icemaker install, LP gas conversion, side venting, etc) - expect an additional charge.
The following appliances have additional costs due to their more complex install processes:
- Air conditioners (window or wall fit)
- Cooktops
- Dishwashers
- Gas dryers (install and/or conversion to LP gas)
- Gas ranges (install and/or conversion to LP gas)
- Refrigerators with water lines
