Fridge & Appliance Disposal

Fridge & appliance disposal,
collected and disposed of properly.

Fridges, freezers and other appliances containing refrigerant gases legally can't just be thrown away — they need specialist handling. Post your appliance collection here and it'll only reach handlers licensed to dispose of it correctly, so you're not left wondering whether it's actually been done properly.

What does appliance disposal cost?

Fridges and freezers typically cost a bit more than other appliances to dispose of correctly, since the refrigerant gases require specific handling under UK regulations. Washing machines, dryers and cookers are usually more straightforward and priced similarly to other bulky items.

Expect quotes broadly in the £30–£70 range depending on the appliance and your location — post your job for exact prices.

We check each handler's Waste Carrier Licence number against the EA public register before they can respond to a single job, and re-verify monthly. If a licence lapses or is revoked, the account is suspended immediately.

Frequently asked questions

Why can't I just put my old fridge out with the rubbish?
Fridges and freezers contain refrigerant gases classed as hazardous if released, so UK law requires them to be collected and processed by a registered waste carrier — not put in general waste.
Do handlers on here know how to dispose of fridges correctly?
Every handler is EA-licensed and checked against the Environment Agency's Waste Carrier Register before they can quote on any job, including appliance collections.
Can I get multiple appliances collected in one visit?
Yes — list everything in your job description (e.g. an old washing machine and fridge being replaced together) and handlers will quote for the full collection.
Does it matter if the appliance still works?
No — working or not, it can be collected for disposal. If it still works, you might also consider donating it separately before booking a collection.
