White Goods Removal

At Big Ben, we provide reliable, fully compliant white goods removal for households, landlords, businesses, and contractors across the UK. From single appliances to full property clearances, our trained teams remove heavy items safely and ensure they are processed in line with WEEE regulations.

Large appliances are awkward to move, difficult to transport, and subject to strict disposal rules. Our service removes the risk and effort by handling lifting, loading, transport, and lawful recycling—leaving your space clear without delay.

What Is White Goods Removal?

White goods removal is the professional collection and compliant treatment of large domestic and commercial appliances. These items contain recyclable metals, plastics, and sometimes refrigerants, which must be handled correctly to protect the environment.

Our white goods removal service ensures appliances are collected from your property and delivered to authorised WEEE facilities for proper processing.

Who Our White Goods Removal Service Is For

Domestic Households

Homeowners and tenants replacing old appliances or moving home often need fast, safe removal without risking injury or damage to property.

Landlords & Letting Agents

End-of-tenancy properties frequently contain unwanted appliances. We help prepare homes quickly for re-letting or sale with compliant disposal.

Businesses & Commercial Clients

Offices, hospitality venues, and managed buildings rely on us to remove appliances during refurbishments or upgrades with minimal disruption.

Builders & Property Managers

Renovation projects often involve replacing kitchens or utilities. Our service keeps sites clear and compliant.

What White Goods We Remove

We remove most large electrical appliances, including:

• Fridges and freezers
• Washing machines and tumble dryers
• Dishwashers
• Cookers, ovens, and hobs
• American-style fridge freezers
• Commercial-grade appliances (by arrangement)

Items Excluded From Standard Removal

We cannot remove appliances contaminated with hazardous substances beyond standard WEEE scope, or items requiring specialist decontamination. If unsure, we will advise before collection.

How Our White Goods Removal Service Works

1. Initial Enquiry – Tell us which appliances need removing and access details.
2. Clear Quotation – Transparent pricing based on item type, size, and access.
3. Flexible Scheduling – Choose a convenient time, including short-notice options where available.
4. Professional Removal – Our trained team handles lifting and safe manoeuvring.
5. Compliant Processing – Appliances are delivered to authorised WEEE facilities.

Transparent Pricing With No Hidden Fees

Pricing is clear and upfront, based on the number and size of appliances and access requirements. There are no call-out charges, no permit fees, and no surprise extras once agreed.

This makes white goods removal a predictable, cost-effective alternative to ad hoc disposal.

Why Professional White Goods Removal Is Better Than DIY or Council Options

DIY removal risks injury, property damage, and illegal disposal—especially for fridges and freezers containing refrigerants. Council collections are often limited and slow.

Choosing Big Ben means:

• No heavy lifting or transport concerns
• Fast, flexible collection times
• Correct handling of refrigerants and components
• Full legal compliance and peace of mind

Legal Compliance & Duty of Care

We are a licensed waste carrier and operate fully in line with UK waste legislation and WEEE requirements. Duty of Care applies once appliances leave your property.

Our compliant processes ensure appliances are transferred only to authorised facilities, protecting you from liability.

Recycling-First & Landfill Reduction

White goods contain valuable recyclable materials such as steel, aluminium, copper, and plastics. Wherever possible, these are recovered and recycled.

This recycling-first approach reduces landfill use and environmental impact while maintaining efficiency.

Experience, Training & Professional Standards

Our teams have extensive experience removing heavy appliances from flats, houses, and commercial premises. All staff are fully trained, insured, and committed to professional standards.

We protect floors, doorways, and communal areas, and leave spaces clean and safe after removal.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does white goods removal cost?

Costs depend on the number and size of appliances and access conditions. We provide clear, upfront pricing before work begins, with no hidden fees.

Do you offer same-day white goods removal?

Same-day or next-day removal is often available, subject to location and availability. Early contact improves the chance of securing a same-day slot.

Is white goods removal legally compliant?

Yes. We are a licensed waste carrier and comply with UK Duty of Care and WEEE regulations. All appliances are processed through authorised facilities.

What happens to appliances after collection?

Appliances are depolluted where required and broken down to recover recyclable materials. Hazardous components are handled safely and legally.

How does this differ from skips or council collections?

Skips are unsuitable for appliances, and council services are limited. Our service includes labour, compliant handling, and faster scheduling, making it the most practical option.
