Overview
Appliance clearance in High Barnet EN5, explained
Appliance clearance in High Barnet EN5 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Barnet, most of them mainly Victorian. 4,475 households sit inside this EN5 patch, 34% of them flats, so we quote on access near Barnet Market and the Battle of Barnet site rather than a London average.
How it works
How appliance clearance works in High Barnet
Five steps, the same on every EN5 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings, as the High Barnet stock goes, where 68% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Tell us the appliance
Type, floor and whether it is free-standing or integrated. That is all we need for a fixed price.
Step 2
Book the slot
Timed to your delivery or installation window so the old machine is gone before the new one arrives.
Step 3
Disconnect and protect
Plug-in appliances unplugged and drained, hall and lift lobby sheeted before anything moves.
Step 4
Carry and load
Barrowed out by two crew — three on an American fridge-freezer or a range cooker.
Step 5
Degas, recycle, receipt
Fridges degassed at a licensed site, other WEEE recycled, transfer note handed over.
Why choose us
Why High Barnet customers book us
Four things decide whether a EN5 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Booked around your day
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common on single machines. High Barnet (Northern) is the nearest station, so a EN5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
High Barnet walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in High Barnet, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — the reality on the streets around Barnet Market and the Battle of Barnet site in EN5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — which is why London Borough of Barnet kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Insured and documented
Registered waste carrier operating to the WEEE Regulations. Fridges and freezers go to a licensed degassing facility, all other appliances to an approved WEEE treatment site, with a transfer note in your name.
Fixed prices
Appliance clearance prices in High Barnet
Fixed prices for EN5 and the rest of Barnet. Appliance type, the floor it is on and whether it is free-standing or built in — refrigerant units cost more because of the degassing gate fee.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single small appliance (microwave, vacuum, TV) | £40 | 15–30 min | Small WEEE is priced per unit because the gate fee is per item, not per kilo. |
| Washing machine, dryer or dishwasher | £60 | 30 min | Two crew and a sack barrow: a drum-loaded machine is 70–80kg and rarely on the ground floor in London. |
| Fridge or freezer | £70 | 30 min | Fridges carry refrigerant gases and must go to a degassing facility, which is a separate licensed stream. |
| American fridge-freezer or range cooker | £95 | 45–60 min | Oversize units need three crew, door removal or a strap lift down a shared stairwell. |
| Kitchen strip-out (four or more appliances) | £180 | 1–2 hrs | Refit and landlord jobs where the whole run comes out in one visit, uplifted together. |

Scope
What's included in High Barnet
The same scope across EN5, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- On EN5 jobs: two crew with a sack barrow and floor protection, stairs and walk-ups included, with 34% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
- In High Barnet: unplugging and pulling out free-standing appliances, including under-counter units, the way it is done on High Barnet jobs
- Fridges and freezers taken to a licensed degassing facility, never tipped — including appliance clearance london
- Standard on Barnet bookings: wEEE recycling with the waste transfer note issued in your name on the day, arranged with London Borough of Barnet where the kerb needs it
- On EN5 jobs: working appliances offered to London reuse partners before recycling, agreed on the doorstep in High Barnet before anything is unpacked
Not included
- Disconnecting hard-wired cookers or gas appliances — that needs a Gas Safe or qualified electrician, handled by London Borough of Barnet or a specialist contractor instead
- Removing built-in units from carcassing where joinery has to be cut, and we will say so before the EN5 visit rather than on the day
- Commercial refrigeration with pressurised systems, outside the fixed price on High Barnet bookings
- Appliances containing food waste that has not been emptied, quoted separately if you need it arranged in EN5

We are over the moon with our one-off deep clean, the team (led by Mo, i think he said his name was!) turned up early and were done within 4 hours, we can't believe how much they got done in that time. They went absolutely above and beyond and cleaned inside cabinets/the fridge even though… Read in full →

High Barnet substrates run to solid London stock brick in High Barnet, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — the reality on the streets around Barnet Market and the Battle of Barnet site. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — which is why London Borough of Barnet kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the mistake that costs a EN5 customer twice.
Anyone who knows High Barnet knows the pattern near Barnet Market and the Battle of Barnet site: historic market town at the top of the Northern line, with a hill high street. We plan the EN5 visit around it. High Barnet is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Steep Barnet Hill, narrow high-street loading and driveways on the estates. Nearest station is High Barnet (Northern), and two crew and a Luton with a sack barrow; three for American fridge-freezers, range cookers and basement carries.

Appliance type, the floor it is on and whether it is free-standing or built in — refrigerant units cost more because of the degassing gate fee for High Barnet (EN5) addresses — and Barnet parking rules in play, with this being a short walk from High Barnet (Northern).
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in High Barnet EN5?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions across EN5, with 8% social-rented stock nearby. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in High Barnet most weeks on this side of Barnet, with 66% of High Barnet homes being houses.
How long does flat-pack assembly take in High Barnet?
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level across EN5, with 68% owner-occupation locally.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a High Barnet doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on the High Barnet rounds. With 34% of High Barnet homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on EN5 jobs — and a median age of 43 in this neighbourhood, with 24% of EN5 homes being privately rented, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Who books appliance clearance in High Barnet EN5 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 24% of High Barnet privately rented and 68% owner-occupied, roughly half the EN5 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door for High Barnet (EN5) addresses — and 29% one-person households here, with a median age of 43 in this neighbourhood.
How quickly can you reach High Barnet from your Barnet round?
Barnet Market and the Battle of Barnet site is the marker we route to on the High Barnet rounds — and 4,475 households on this patch, with 34% of homes here being flats, and steep Barnet Hill, narrow high-street loading and driveways on the estates. A EN5 slot added to an existing Barnet round usually lands the same week rather than the next on EN5 jobs, with this being London Borough of Barnet territory.
Is same-day or evening appliance clearance available in Barnet?
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common on single machines across EN5. High Barnet sits close to High Barnet (Northern) around High Barnet (Northern), with 29% one-person households here, so we can usually add a EN5 job to an existing Barnet round at short notice.
