Broke dryer hose… need advice

dryer

Just got a new dryer and the door to my laundry room wouldn’t close due to the dryer so stupid me tried to push my dryer back closer to the wall and in the process I broke the hose and and bent the area on the back of the dryer the hose connects to.

Is this an easy fix and something I can do myself? Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks so much!

You can straighten out the dryer tube with just a needle nose pliers. The dryer hose can be trimmed with just a heavy pair of scissors or tin snips if you have a pair.

Many dryers have additional vent exits. Check your owner's manual. Good luck.
