Best way to replace appliance when out of state?

[Mara Hayes]

I have a rental in Indianapolis that needs a dishwasher replacement. I am self managing the property. My options for replacement are 1) buy from store, have delivered, and pay store to install new one and haul out old one, or 2) buy from store and have delivered and hire independent appliance person to install and haul. Any other options? Both of these look to cost me about $300 for the install/haul alone.

I would buy from the store, have them haul away and then have a handyman put it in you trust. And tip: the store (big box or little box store) do not always tell the crews there is a haul away on the old item. I even had the crew that delivered my last dishwasher delivery not know it was haul away and had to tell them to take the old one.
