What moves the price
- Number of appliances being disposed of — each extra fridge or washing machine adds handling time, though the collection charge is shared.
- Distance to the disposal site — appliances have to go to a recycling centre, and a long drive there adds to the cost.
- Appliance type — fridges and freezers hold refrigerants that need special handling, so they usually cost more to dispose of than other appliances.
- Complexity of the removal process — an appliance that is plumbed or wired in, or upstairs, takes longer to disconnect and carry out.
