Overview
Fridge and freezer disposal in Tottenham N17 is a fixed-price visit for renter-heavy homes in Haringey, most of them mainly Victorian. 18,113 households sit inside this N17 patch, 57% of them flats, so we quote on access near Tottenham Hotspur Stadium rather than a London average.
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
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. Match-day closures and parking bans, red routes on the High Road and lift booking at Hale Village.
Next-day collection is standard across every borough, and same-day is usually available for a single unit booked before mid-morning. Tottenham Hale (Victoria, Greater Anglia) is the nearest station, so a N17 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — where 29% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in N17, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — which is why London Borough of Haringey kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
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.
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 Tottenham
The N17 stock around Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is mainly Victorian. ONS records 57% flats, 43% houses and 18,113 households in Tottenham.
36% of households rent privately and 29% own, which is why fridge and freezer disposal demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Tottenham substrates run to often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — where 29% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — which is why London Borough of Haringey kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the mistake that costs a N17 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Tottenham knows the pattern near Tottenham Hotspur Stadium: stadium district, Hale regeneration and long Victorian terraces on the High Road. We plan the N17 visit around it. Tottenham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, match-day closures and parking bans, red routes on the High Road and lift booking at Hale Village — 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 Tottenham Hale (Victoria, Greater Anglia).

Under-counter fridge or freezer starts at £45 in Tottenham on Haringey bookings, with Haringey parking rules in play, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Unit size and the refrigerant charge set the floor price; stairs, narrow galley kitchens and integrated housings that need levering out add crew time on top in this 57% flats neighbourhood — and 57% of homes here being flats, with 29% one-person households here.
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on this side of Haringey, with Tottenham Hotspur Stadium a few streets away. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Tottenham most weeks in this 57% flats neighbourhood, with 36% of N17 homes being privately rented.
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level across N17, with this being London Borough of Haringey territory.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on the streets near Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. With 57% of Tottenham homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm across N17, with Tottenham Hotspur Stadium a few streets away — and 18,113 households on this patch, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
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 on Haringey bookings — and this being London Borough of Haringey territory, with Tottenham Hotspur Stadium a few streets away, and we handle that step at an approved facility rather than leaving it to the tip. That paperwork is what most Haringey letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on the streets near Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with 43% of Tottenham homes being houses.
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, which are quoted separately due to larger refrigerant volumes; Units that have been dismantled or had the refrigerant circuit cut open across N17, with a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood, which need a specialist hazardous-waste route instead. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Tottenham N17 price you agree is the price you pay on this side of Haringey, with 18,113 households on this patch.
All three. With 36% of Tottenham privately rented and 29% owner-occupied, roughly half the N17 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on this side of Haringey — and a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood, with Tottenham Hotspur Stadium a few streets away.
