Bexley · DA5 · Fridge and freezer disposal
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Bexley Village fitters · Fixed written pricesBexley Village DA5 is a regular stop on our Bexley round. A genuine village on the Cray with Hall Place's Tudor gardens next door, so fridge and freezer disposal here is quoted on the street the job is on — from £45, in writing, with insured fitters, every fixing torqued, and the flat-pack packaging taken away.
Overview
This page prices fridge and freezer disposal for Bexley Village DA5 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 14% privately rented and 3,319 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Bexley permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
Under-counter, full-height or American-style — that alone sets the price, no visit needed to quote.
Step 2
The degassing fee is already inside the figure; nothing is added once the facility processes the unit.
Step 3
Next-day is standard across every borough; same-day is often available for a single unit.
Step 4
Unit is kept upright wherever possible to avoid disturbing the compressor oil and refrigerant lines.
Step 5
Taken to an approved WEEE facility where the refrigerant is recovered before scrapping, with the transfer note emailed to you.
Why choose us
We expect cavity brickwork outside — and timber stud partitions inside — the reality on the streets around Hall Place and Gardens in DA5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air on these streets — and with 26% one-person households in Bexley Village, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Refrigerant-containing appliances are classed as WEEE and controlled under the Ozone-Depleting Substances Regulations and the F-Gas Regulations — the gas must be recovered by a certified technician before the unit is crushed or scrapped, and we handle that step at an approved facility rather than leaving it to the tip.
One or two crew depending on access; American-style and full-height units on an upper floor with no lift are booked as a two-person job as standard. Narrow village lanes with a one-way section; driveways on the newer roads.
Next-day collection is standard across every borough, and same-day is usually available for a single unit booked before mid-morning. Bexley (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a DA5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under-counter fridge or freezer | £45 | 20–30 min | Smaller units still need the same degassing process, so the price floor reflects the facility charge rather than the size. |
| Full-height fridge or fridge-freezer | £60 | 20–30 min | Priced per unit for collection plus the WEEE facility's per-item gate fee for degassing and recycling. |
| American-style or larger fridge-freezer | £85 | 30–45 min | Extra crew time for the size and weight through a doorway, plus a higher refrigerant charge on some larger units. |
| Chest or upright freezer | £55 | 20–30 min | Same F-gas recovery step as a fridge, priced per unit against the approved facility's rate. |
| Wine cooler or drinks fridge | £40 | 15–20 min | Smaller refrigerant charge than a full fridge, but still requires the same certified recovery step before scrapping. |
| Second unit on the same visit | £30 each | Added to visit | One collection, one degassing trip to the facility — each extra unit avoids a second call-out charge. |

Working in Bexley Village
Census 2021 puts Bexley Village at 3,319 households with a median age of 43.4. The mainly Victorian stock is owner-occupier-led, which is why 79% houses and 21% flats need different handling in DA5.
14% of households rent privately and 81% own, which is why fridge and freezer disposal demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Expect cavity brickwork outside — and timber stud partitions inside — the reality on the streets around Hall Place and Gardens behind the plaster in DA5. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air on these streets — and with 26% one-person households in Bexley Village, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is the fault we are called back to undo.
Two streets can behave very differently in Bexley Village: a genuine village on the Cray with Hall Place's Tudor gardens next door. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Bexley Village is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, narrow village lanes with a one-way section; driveways on the newer roads — one reason one or two crew depending on access; American-style and full-height units on an upper floor with no lift are booked as a two-person job as standard. Fitters travelling in use Bexley (Southeastern).

Disconnecting an integrated fridge or freezer that is plumbed or wired in — that is a trade job we can refer you for; Commercial catering refrigeration and cold rooms — and 26% one-person households here, which are quoted separately due to larger refrigerant volumes; Units that have been dismantled or had the refrigerant circuit cut open for Bexley Village (DA5) addresses, with 3,319 households on this patch, which need a specialist hazardous-waste route instead.
