Fridges and freezers contain refrigerant gases that can't just go to landfill — they need specialist WEEE recycling. In Broadstone, where 1930s detached and semi-detached with large gardens properties are typical across Lower Blandford Road, Hillbourne and Dunyeats, getting a fridge out of the kitchen and into a van isn't something most people can do alone. We collect from your kitchen, load it safely, and take it to a WEEE-compliant recycling centre where the gas is properly extracted and materials recovered. Affluent residential area popular with families. Larger gardens and garages mean more clearance and garden waste jobs. Whether you're upgrading your kitchen or clearing a property, we'll have your old fridge gone within the hour.
While we're there: add a washing machine (£50), dishwasher (£45), or bags of rubbish (£12/bag)

You can take a fridge to Nuffield Recycling Centre (2.8 miles from Broadstone), but you'll need a way to transport it — fridges don't fit in most car boots. If you use a van or trailer, you'll need a permit. Vans and trailers require a free permit — apply online at least 5 working days ahead. The WEEE bay at the tip requires you to lift the fridge into the container yourself. A TipRun collection means we do all the heavy lifting, right from your kitchen.
