About FreshStart Appliances
At FreshStart Appliances, we believe everyone deserves reliable home essentials without the high upfront costs or hassles of ownership. Based in Atlanta Metro, Georgia, we specialize in providing affordable washer and dryer rentals complete with free delivery, professional installation, and ongoing maintenance, so you can focus on what matters most.
FreshStart was founded by Riley Lufkin, a hands-on entrepreneur who saw an opportunity to make everyday living a little easier and more affordable. After graduating from Appalachian State University with a major in marketing and later working in marketing and sales, Riley wanted to build a business centered around trust, quality, and convenience. What started as a simple idea, helping families and renters get the appliances they need without breaking the bank, has grown into a service known for its dependability and personal touch.
Riley Lufkin’s Father Anthony Lufkin. With over 20 years of experience in the appliance industry as an engineer and manager for companies like Whirlpool, Haier, and Electrolux, has played an enormous role in helping Riley launch FreshStart Appliances. Thanks to Anthony’s mentorship, Riley learned how to properly inspect, repair, and maintain machines so customers always receive quality, tested appliances they can trust.
Unlike big box stores, we’re local and personally involved in every step, from delivery to setup and support. Every unit is tested for performance, and every customer interaction matters. Whether you’re moving into your first apartment, managing a rental property, or just want an easier way to get clean laundry at home, FreshStart Appliances makes it simple and stress-free.
Our Promise:
Reliable Products. Transparent Pricing. Local Service You Can Count On.
