Fridge/Freezer Removal
Fridge-freezer packed in and you cannot exactly pop it in the wheelie bin? We cover Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire, Cheshire, Derbyshire, West Yorkshire and South Yorkshire for compliant fridge and freezer disposal. We remove fridges and freezers safely from homes and businesses, then route them through authorised WEEE treatment so refrigerants and oils are handled properly. You receive a Digital Waste Transfer Note and we aim for around 95% landfill diversion across the wider load.

Testimonials
What customers say
We had a house clearance today by The Rubbish Removers. They arrived before time, surveyed what needed doing and finished in no time. The team were fantastic, polite, well organised and hard working.
The Rubbish Removers recently did a full house clearance for me. Excellent, quick, reliable, friendly and helpful service. Would highly recommend.
I received fantastic service at every stage. The clearance of my mum's house was handled with care, extremely quickly and by a friendly and compassionate team.

FAQs
Answers to common questions
Do you take fridges and freezers?
Yes. Domestic and light commercial units are collected and sent to authorised treatment.
Do they need to be defrosted?
Defrosting helps prevent water spills, but we can manage if not. Please empty all food before we arrive.
Can you remove a fridge from upstairs?
Yes. We plan the route, protect floors, and carry safely with two-person teams.
Do you take commercial display fridges?
Yes, subject to access. Larger units may require extra labour, which we'll quote in advance.
What paperwork do you provide?
A Waste Transfer Note confirming transfer to an authorised facility. F-gas handling is managed by the processor.
How do you price multiple units?
Send a photo of the quantity and we'll price a combined rate.
