Overview
Appliance clearance in Holloway N7, explained

How it works
How appliance clearance works in Holloway
Five steps, the same on every N7 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Holloway gives us council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block, which is what a 89% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Holloway actually produces 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 Holloway customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Holloway wall.
Booked around your day
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common on single machines. Holloway Road (Piccadilly) is the nearest station, so a N7 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Holloway walls, not generic walls
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit — and with 40% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in N7, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in N7, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — which is why London Borough of Islington 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 Holloway
Fixed prices for N7 and the rest of Islington. 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 Holloway
The same scope across N7, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Two crew with a sack barrow and floor protection, stairs and walk-ups included, noted on the Holloway job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- Standard on Islington bookings: unplugging and pulling out free-standing appliances, including under-counter units, allowing for the 40% of N7 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- On N7 jobs: fridges and freezers taken to a licensed degassing facility, never tipped, agreed on the doorstep in Holloway before anything is unpacked
- In Holloway: wEEE recycling with the waste transfer note issued in your name on the day, timed against the walk in from Holloway Road (Piccadilly)
- Working appliances offered to London reuse partners before recycling, checked on every N7 visit
Not included
- Disconnecting hard-wired cookers or gas appliances — that needs a Gas Safe or qualified electrician, handled by London Borough of Islington or a specialist contractor instead
- Removing built-in units from carcassing where joinery has to be cut, and we will say so before the N7 visit rather than on the day
- Commercial refrigeration with pressurised systems, quoted separately if you need it arranged in N7
- Appliances containing food waste that has not been emptied, which we refer on to the right trade in Holloway

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 →

Private renting sits at 40% and owner-occupation at 29%; the first group books appliance clearance at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit — and with 40% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, so the fixing that matters in Holloway is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in N7, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — which is why London Borough of Islington kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Anyone who knows Holloway knows the pattern near The Emirates Stadium and Nag's Head market: a busy road of shops and student halls, with quieter Victorian streets either side. We plan the N7 visit around it. Holloway sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: holloway Road is a red route; side streets are permit-only with tight corners. Holloway Road (Piccadilly) is the nearest station, and two crew and a Luton with a sack barrow; three for American fridge-freezers, range cookers and basement carries.

Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on Islington bookings, with this being a short walk from Holloway Road (Piccadilly).

How long does flat-pack assembly take in Holloway?
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on the Holloway rounds, with 11% of Holloway homes being houses.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Holloway doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in for Holloway (N7) addresses. With 89% of Holloway homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on the streets near The Emirates Stadium and Nag's Head market, with this being a short walk from Holloway Road (Piccadilly) — and 8,936 households on this patch, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Are your fitters insured for work in N7?
