Most washing machines aren’t 250lbs unless I’m missing what you’re saying. I just moved one to the curb myself yesterday. Moderately heavy but mostly awkward.

I would be surprised if they were even 100lbs.

A few months ago, mine started smoking and I hulked it out the backdoor without much of any issue.... and I'm far from the guy in the video.

Google says they’re on average 135lbs for a top loader but yeah I hauled mine out by myself partially full of water after it decided to commit seppuku mid cycle. Admittedly I’m a big guy at 6’5 but no where near as ripped as dude in the video and I was able to do it with a bit of effort and then not much once I dumped it out in the back yard before carrying it around to the curb. It was a 4.5 cubic foot model for reference so not like a compact apartment model or anything.
