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. Green Street loading is tightly timed; side streets are permit-only and narrow.
Next-day collection is standard across every borough, and same-day is usually available for a single unit booked before mid-morning. Upton Park (District, Hammersmith & City) is the nearest station, so a E13 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect solid London stock brick in Upton Park, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — which is what a 36% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Upton Park actually produces in E13, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in E13, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — the pattern behind 2,564 households inside the E13 neighbourhood.
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. |

The cleaners Constantin and arrived in time and never stopped until the work was completed to the best of their ability. I would recommend a more upgraded carpet cleaner as I was hoping for a hot steam cleaner to penetrate areas or heavy foot traffic on the carpet. They never gave up until the look… Read in full →

Expect solid London stock brick in Upton Park, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — which is what a 36% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Upton Park actually produces behind the plaster in E13.
