Call-out fee: £49 — covers our team travelling to you. Item prices are on top.
When a washing machine breaks or you're upgrading your kitchen appliances, the old ones need to go somewhere. In Ferndown, across West Moors, Longham and Tricketts Cross, we collect washing machines, tumble dryers, dishwashers, and cookers from your kitchen or utility room. All appliances are taken to WEEE-compliant recycling centres where metals, plastics, and components are properly sorted and recycled. 1970s–1990s detached houses on estates properties in Ferndown often have tight utility rooms or narrow kitchen doorways — we're used to manoeuvring heavy appliances through tricky spaces. Suburban family town with many post-war estates. Popular with families upgrading from Bournemouth. West Moors has an older demographic.
While we're there: add a fridge (£50), dryer (£45), or bags of rubbish (£12/bag)

Your appliance + call-out = £99 total. A half load is £179 — just £80 more to fill half the van.
Dorset Council will collect appliances as bulky waste for £30 for 1 item, £10 per additional item (max 6). The wait is up to 4 weeks, and you'll need to move the appliance to your property boundary. For a washing machine that weighs 70-80kg, that's a serious ask. TipRun collects from your kitchen — you don't lift a finger.

Wimborne Recycling Centre has a WEEE recycling bay (3.5 miles from Ferndown). But getting a washing machine or cooker there means loading it into a van — they're too heavy and awkward for a car boot. You'll need to lift it into the WEEE container yourself. Proof of Dorset address required. Save your back and book a collection instead.
Wide estate roads with good van access. Most properties have front driveways or garages. West Moors has some older bungalow rows with tighter access. For appliance removal, please unplug the item and turn off the water supply (for washing machines and dishwashers). We don't do plumbing or gas disconnections — gas cookers must be disconnected by a Gas Safe engineer first. Residential estates with driveways. Free on-street parking throughout. No permit zones.
“Quick, friendly, and affordable. Mattress and bed frame gone. They even swept up after.”
