Once you have the remodeling debris disposal lined-up, you can take down those old fixtures to start your journey to a new and improved space. Here's how to do old kitchen cabinet removal the easy way:

• Clear the area. Begin by clearing the whole area and putting up plastic and laying down drop cloths. You need to try to contain as much dirt and dust as possible to that room alone. Be sure to empty the cabinets and not leave anything inside.
• Remove the doors. Next, take off the doors. (Leave the handles on so they are easy to carry.) Just unfasten the hinges and pull the doors off the cabinets. Then, place them to the side.
• Take off the hardware. Now, remove any other hardware from the cabinets (if applicable), along with the shelves. Put the hardware and shelves aside, also so they aren't a tripping hazard.
• Pull the cabinet shells down. With the doors, hardware, and shelves out of the way, you can then remove the cabinet shells. You might have to unfasten retaining screws and/or pry them out of place.
