Overview
Appliance clearance in Clapton E5, explained
Booked mostly by social-housing-led households around Clapton, appliance clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £40. With 76% of Clapton's 9,067 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in E5 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How appliance clearance works in Clapton
Five steps, the same on every E5 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — measured on the walk in from Clapton (Overground) rather than assumed from a map 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 Clapton customers book us
What follows is specific to Clapton: its walls, its access and the paperwork Hackney agents ask for.
Crew sized to the job
Two crew and a Luton with a sack barrow; three for American fridge-freezers, range cookers and basement carries. Narrow terraced streets, permit bays and marsh-side roads that flood after heavy rain.
Booked around your day
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common on single machines. Clapton (Overground) is the nearest station, so a E5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Clapton walls, not generic walls
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Clapton, often with surface conduit, the reality on the streets around Hackney Marshes in E5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Clapton gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, a median age of 32 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Fixed prices
Appliance clearance prices in Clapton
Fixed prices for E5 and the rest of Hackney. 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 Clapton
The same scope across E5, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Hackney bookings: two crew with a sack barrow and floor protection, stairs and walk-ups included, arranged with London Borough of Hackney where the kerb needs it
- Unplugging and pulling out free-standing appliances, including under-counter units — including appliance clearance
- In Clapton: fridges and freezers taken to a licensed degassing facility, never tipped, the way it is done on Clapton jobs
- On E5 jobs: wEEE recycling with the waste transfer note issued in your name on the day, with 76% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
- Standard on Hackney bookings: working appliances offered to London reuse partners before recycling, with 9,067 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
Not included
- Disconnecting hard-wired cookers or gas appliances — that needs a Gas Safe or qualified electrician, outside the fixed price on Clapton bookings
- Removing built-in units from carcassing where joinery has to be cut, and we will say so before the E5 visit rather than on the day
- Commercial refrigeration with pressurised systems, which we refer on to the right trade in Clapton
- Appliances containing food waste that has not been emptied, quoted separately if you need it arranged in E5

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 →

With 32% private renting against 29% owner-occupied, most E5 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Clapton, often with surface conduit, the reality on the streets around Hackney Marshes, so the fixing that matters in Clapton is chosen on site — the usual failure here is Clapton gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, a median age of 32 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Marsh-edge streets, the Round Chapel and a long run of Victorian terraces. That character decides the practical detail of appliance clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. Clapton is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
