Overview
Appliance clearance in Addiscombe CR0, explained
This page prices appliance clearance for Addiscombe CR0 specifically: mainly Edwardian stock, 33% privately rented and 11,026 households in total. Work starts at £40, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Croydon permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How appliance clearance works in Addiscombe
Five steps, the same on every CR0 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings, as the Addiscombe stock goes, the reality on the streets around Ashburton Park 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 Addiscombe customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Addiscombe wall.
Booked around your day
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common on single machines. Addiscombe (Tramlink) is the nearest station, so a CR0 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Addiscombe walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in CR0, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — where 54% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in CR0, 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 — the pattern behind 11,026 households inside the CR0 neighbourhood.
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 Addiscombe
Fixed prices for CR0 and the rest of Croydon. 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 Addiscombe
The same scope across CR0, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- On CR0 jobs: two crew with a sack barrow and floor protection, stairs and walk-ups included, agreed on the doorstep in Addiscombe before anything is unpacked
- In Addiscombe: unplugging and pulling out free-standing appliances, including under-counter units, timed against the walk in from Addiscombe (Tramlink)
- Fridges and freezers taken to a licensed degassing facility, never tipped, noted on the Addiscombe job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- Standard on Croydon bookings: wEEE recycling with the waste transfer note issued in your name on the day, allowing for the 33% of CR0 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- On CR0 jobs: working appliances offered to London reuse partners before recycling, local appliance clearance included
Not included
- Disconnecting hard-wired cookers or gas appliances — that needs a Gas Safe or qualified electrician, and we will say so before the CR0 visit rather than on the day
- Removing built-in units from carcassing where joinery has to be cut, outside the fixed price on Addiscombe bookings
- Commercial refrigeration with pressurised systems, quoted separately if you need it arranged in CR0
- Appliances containing food waste that has not been emptied, which we refer on to the right trade in Addiscombe

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 →

Addiscombe CR0 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Addiscombe — the numbers that actually change a appliance clearance quote.
Census 2021 puts Addiscombe at 11,026 households with a median age of 36.7. The mainly Edwardian stock is mixed-tenure, which is why 58% houses and 42% flats need different handling in CR0.
Owner-occupation runs at 54% in Addiscombe, so alongside the 33% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Expect solid London stock brick in CR0, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — where 54% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year behind the plaster in CR0. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — the pattern behind 11,026 households inside the CR0 neighbourhood is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows Addiscombe knows the pattern near Ashburton Park: tree-lined Edwardian streets and a small parade east of central Croydon. We plan the CR0 visit around it. Addiscombe is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: tram-line crossings, narrow terraced streets and permit bays near the tram stops. Addiscombe (Tramlink) is the nearest station, and two crew and a Luton with a sack barrow; three for American fridge-freezers, range cookers and basement carries.

Common questions
Appliance clearance in Addiscombe CR0 — your questions.
How much does appliance clearance cost in Addiscombe CR0?
Single small appliance (microwave, vacuum, TV) starts at £40 in Addiscombe on the streets near Ashburton Park — and a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood, with 54% owner-occupation locally, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. 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 across CR0 — and Croydon parking rules in play, with 13% social-rented stock nearby.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Addiscombe CR0?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions in this 42% flats neighbourhood, with 13% social-rented stock nearby. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Addiscombe most weeks on Croydon bookings, with 30% one-person households here.
How long does flat-pack assembly take in Addiscombe?
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level in this 42% flats neighbourhood, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood. London Borough of Croydon rules apply where the kerb or a bay suspension is involved.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Addiscombe doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in in Addiscombe. With 42% of Addiscombe homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm for Addiscombe (CR0) addresses — and a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood, with Croydon parking rules in play, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Is same-day or evening appliance clearance available in Croydon?
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common on single machines on the streets near Ashburton Park. Addiscombe sits close to Addiscombe (Tramlink), with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood, so we can usually add a CR0 job to an existing Croydon round at short notice for Addiscombe (CR0) addresses.
Do you handle difficult access in Addiscombe?
Tram-line crossings, narrow terraced streets and permit bays near the tram stops for Addiscombe (CR0) addresses. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Croydon it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on the streets near Ashburton Park, with 54% owner-occupation locally — and 30% one-person households here.
Are your fitters insured for work in CR0?
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 in this 42% flats neighbourhood, with 11,026 households on this patch, with a transfer note in your name. That paperwork is what most Croydon letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat for Addiscombe (CR0) addresses, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood.
