Fridge Removal in Shrewsbury

Fridges and freezers are awkward to move and cannot go in a normal skip or household bin. Refrigerant gases need proper treatment under WEEE rules, which is why council collections and skip hire companies turn them away. Whether you are replacing a kitchen in Bayston Hill, clearing a rental void in Harlescott, or shifting a broken freezer out of a town-centre flat before new tenants arrive, we collect the appliance and route it through licensed disposal.

Appliances we remove

• Fridges and fridge-freezers — under-counter, tall larder, and American-style units.
• Chest and upright freezers — defrost before collection where you can; we can advise if unsure.
• Other white goods — washing machines, tumble dryers, dishwashers, and cookers in the same visit.
• Landlord void clearances — appliances left behind after a tenancy across SY1, SY2, and SY3.

Why fridges need a specialist collection

Unlike general rubbish, cooling appliances contain components that must be recovered and processed correctly. That is why they are excluded from most skips and why a quick car-boot run to the tip is not always straightforward for larger units. Our service includes collection from inside the property where access allows, transport, and disposal through appropriate WEEE channels.

Before we arrive

• Switch off and unplug the appliance. Defrost freezers 24 hours ahead if possible.
• Empty all food and wipe down if practical — it makes handling easier.
• Tell us about stairs, narrow galley kitchens, or integrated units that need sliding out.
• Hard-wired or plumbed-in appliances: mention this when booking so we know what to expect.

Areas we cover

Regular collections across Meole Brace, Bayston Hill, Copthorne, and Harlescott, plus the town centre and surrounding SY postcodes. Suburban driveways and older terraces near the river both have their own access quirks — a quick description when you call helps us quote accurately.
