How it works
- STEP 1
Send photographs
Snap the fridge removal at your Ellesmere address and send it on WhatsApp. Photographs are the single biggest factor in quote accuracy — the more you send, the tighter the fixed price.
- STEP 2
Receive a fixed price
We assess volume, weight and access, then confirm a written figure covering the agreed labour, transport and disposal requirements for your collection in Ellesmere. Any change in scope is discussed before work continues.
- STEP 3
Choose your slot
Same-day, next-day, weekend and evening windows are offered subject to vehicle availability. You get a confirmed window rather than an all-day wait.
- STEP 4
We load and clear
The crew arrives with the correct vehicle, loads everything by hand, and sweeps up. The collected fridge removal from Ellesmere is weighed and documented at a licensed facility afterwards.
What affects the price
Fridge Removal starts from £95. Your fixed price is confirmed once we have seen photographs.
- Waste type — recycling routes are cheaper than general disposal
- Access — stairs, long carries and restricted parking add labour time
- Timing — weekend, evening and emergency slots carry an uplift
- Location — travel beyond the included mileage is charged at the vehicle rate
- Volume — how much of the van the load actually fills
- Weight — dense material such as rubble, soil and concrete costs more at the gate

Fridge Removal FAQs
Why can't a fridge just go in a skip?
Because of the refrigerant. Fridges collected in Ellesmere go to a facility licensed to degas them — putting one in general waste is an offence, not just bad practice.
Do you take fridges from upstairs or a garage?
Yes. Tell us the access when you send photographs and we allocate a two-person crew if the carry needs it.
Can you handle difficult access?
Yes. Stairs, lifts, long carries, narrow lanes and permit bays are all workable at Ellesmere properties — we just need to know in advance so the right crew and vehicle are sent.
Why do you ask for photographs?
Because guessing is how customers get stung. Photographs let us size the Ellesmere vehicle, crew and disposal route correctly, so the price we quote for your fridge removal is the price you pay.
What happens to the waste after collection?
It goes to a licensed transfer station where it is separated. Recoverable material from Ellesmere collections is recycled, and only the residual fraction goes to final disposal.
Do I need to be there?
Not always. If the fridge removal is accessible from outside at the Ellesmere property, we can collect with photographs, written instructions and payment agreed in advance.
Is this cheaper than hiring a skip in Ellesmere?
Frequently. There is no permit to buy, no driveway lost for a week, and you only pay for the space the waste actually occupies. For small and medium fridge removal loads in Ellesmere, a wait-and-load collection usually wins on both price and speed.
Which Ellesmere postcodes do you cover for fridge removal?
Yes. Our fridge removal covers Ellesmere and its SY12 postcode districts. We also collect from neighbouring Oswestry (7.5 miles), Wem (7.9 miles) and Ruabon (8.2 miles) — distances are straight-line from Ellesmere. Send your postcode with photos on WhatsApp and we will confirm the fixed price before booking.

Moving as well as clearing in Ellesmere?
Clearances often sit either side of a move. If you need the furniture that is staying taken to a new address in Ellesmere, that is a removals job rather than a waste job — and it is priced separately.
