How much is an appliance diagnostic service fee, and does it apply to a repair?
At Duggan's Service & Appliance, the cost of our appliance diagnostic service fee (commonly called a trip charge) ensures a factory-certified, in-house technician comes to your home to perform a professional diagnosis of the appliance. Diagnostic fees are based on your proximity to our regional service locations:
- Zone 1 ($169.71 + tax): Zip Codes within 1-25 miles of our Robinson Twp. Headquarters, Erie, PA or Morgantown, WV showrooms.
- Zone 2 ($189.71 + tax): Zip Codes within 26-50 miles of our Robinson Twp. Headquarters, Erie, PA or Morgantown, WV showrooms.
- Extended Service: Outside of the listed radius above? Please contact our service department directly to review your eligibility.
How the Repair Process Works: If our technician identifies a problem with the appliance, they will provide a quote that includes the cost of labor and any parts required to complete the repair. This transparent approach ensures you know exactly what the investment will be before the service repair work begins. Please contact Duggan's Service & Appliance Service Department at 814-452-6795 (select option 4) with any questions or concerns.
What happens if my appliance is deemed not cost-effective to repair?
Sometimes, despite our best efforts, an older appliance is simply not cost-effective to repair. At Duggan's Service & Appliance, we don’t want your diagnostic fee to feel like a lost investment. If our factory-certified trained technician determines that your kitchen or laundry appliance is beyond reasonable repair, we provide a $50 credit to put towards the purchase of a new unit. The credit is valid for 30-days following your service call and can be used at any of our Don’s Appliances or Duggan’s Service & Appliance locations throughout, Pittsburgh, PA, Erie, PA and Morgantown, WV.
With the largest in-stock inventory in the tri-state region and free next-day delivery available, we’ll help you find a replacement that fits your budget and lifestyle before your groceries (or your laundry pile) become a problem.
Do you offer haul-away and disposal services for old units?
Yes, at Duggan's Service & Appliance, we make upgrading your new kitchen or laundry appliances effortless by offering appliance haul-away and disposal services. We understand that purchasing a new machine is only half the battle. You need a reliable way to remove the old one without damaging your home. Please note that haul-away services must be purchased at the time of the sale and cannot be added once our delivery team arrives at your home.
Removal fees are competitively priced and vary depending on the type of appliance being replaced. As the best appliance store in Erie, PA, we handle the heavy lifting and ensure your old units are disposed of properly, saving you the hassle of coordinating with third-party junk removal companies or leaving heavy appliances on the curb.

What should I do if my appliance arrives with visible cosmetic damage?
After purchasing your new kitchen or laundry appliances from Duggan's Service & Appliance, we want your new purchase to be perfect the moment we deliver and install your appliances. To ensure the best experience, we strongly recommend checking all appliances for any visible damage at the time of delivery. Our in-house delivery technicians are trained to spot issues and will proactively discuss your options with you. If visible damage is found, you have several ways to proceed:
- Accept and Fix: Most cosmetic damage can quickly be resolved under the manufacturer’s warranty by replacing a specific part at no charge to you.
- Accept a Damage Allowance: You may choose to keep the unit as it is in exchange for a discounted damage allowance. This is a great way to save, and it does not affect your functional warranty.
- Refuse the Delivery: If the product is badly damaged, you have the right to refuse it at the time of delivery. We will then work to get a replacement from our large in-stock inventory as quickly as possible.
Important: While we encourage on-site inspections, we understand things happen. All cosmetic damage must be reported within 48 hours of taking possession of the product. Reporting within this window ensures that our team can provide a quick resolution. As the leading appliance experts in Erie, PA, we are committed to ensuring your new kitchen or laundry appliances are exactly what you expected.
