That old washing machine hasn't worked in months. It's taking up half your kitchen, blocking the route to the back door, and every time you squeeze past it you promise yourself "this weekend I'll sort it." But booking a council bulky waste slot means waiting weeks, hiring a van means hauling it yourself down narrow Victorian terrace stairs, and skip hire requires a permit you don't have time to arrange. If you're in Hodge Hill and need that fridge, cooker, or tumble dryer gone today—without the headache—you need a service that actually works around your life, not the other way round.
We provide fully licensed white goods removal in Hodge Hill with two-person uniformed teams who do all the heavy lifting, navigate your property safely, and leave your space swept clean. Same-day and evening appointments available, no skip permit required, and every item handled with full duty of care documentation. Whether it's a single washing machine from a Bordesley Green flat or a full kitchen clearance from a Shard End house, we turn up on time, load fast, and recycle up to 90% of what we collect.
What's Included in Our Hodge Hill White Goods Collection Service
You shouldn't need to shift furniture, dismantle anything, or clear a path. Our professional white goods removal covers the work from start to finish:
- Two-person crew: uniformed, insured, and trained in manual handling—we carry items down stairs, through tight hallways, and around awkward corners without damage
- All labour and loading: no expectation you've prepped anything; we disconnect (non-gas/non-electric final connections), lift, load, and protect your property
- Sweep and tidy: we don't leave mess, packaging, or debris behind
- Waste transfer note: legal proof your waste went to a licensed facility, protecting you from fly-tipping fines (£400+ if your waste ends up dumped illegally by a rogue operator)
- Flexible scheduling: same-day slots when available, plus evenings and weekends to fit around work and family
- ETA text updates: you'll know when we're 30 minutes out, so no wasted morning waiting in
We're licensed waste carriers registered with the Environment Agency, and we handle parking permits or resident bay access across Hodge Hill's mix of Victorian streets, 1960s estates, and newer developments where on-street space is tight.
How Does Same-Day White Goods Removal Work in Hodge Hill?
Speed doesn't mean chaos. Here's the process when you need that appliance gone today:
- Call or text 07751 979473 with a quick description: "Fridge-freezer, first-floor flat, Hodge Hill" is enough
- Instant quote: we confirm price over the phone—no surveys, no hidden fees once we arrive
- Same-day slot confirmed: if you call before noon and we have availability, we'll usually reach you that afternoon
- ETA update: text 30 minutes before arrival so you're not tied to the window all day
- Load and go: team arrives, assesses access (stairs, doorways, parking), carries item out, loads van, sweeps the spot clean
- Payment and paperwork: pay on completion (card or bank transfer), receive your waste transfer note digitally or on paper
The entire visit typically takes 15–25 minutes for a single appliance. For scheduled white goods removal, you get priority booking for specific time windows—ideal when you're coordinating new appliance delivery or managing a house sale completion.
Common White Goods Disposal Challenges We Solve in Hodge Hill
Parking restrictions: Many Hodge Hill streets have resident permit bays, double-yellow enforcement zones near the shopping areas, and narrow Victorian terraces where two cars can't pass. We arrive early to secure legal loading space, hold permits when required, and use trolleys to bridge longer distances between property and vehicle.
Multi-storey access: Flats above shops along Coleshill Road, maisonettes on the older estates, and conversions in period houses often mean tight stairwells, low ceilings, and right-angle turns. Our crews carry straps, protective sheeting, and the experience to pivot a chest freezer around a newel post without scratching paintwork or banging walls.
Urgent timelines: Landlords need flats cleared between tenancies, house buyers want white goods gone before completion, and new appliance deliveries won't take the old one away if it's integrated or built-in. We handle the pressure without the premium—same-day white goods removal Hodge Hill is priced the same as scheduled work, because we've built the logistics to make it routine.
Where Does Your White Goods Waste Actually Go?
This isn't a trip to the tip and a shrug. Every appliance we collect follows a clear hierarchy:
- Reuse first: working or easily repairable items go to local reuse networks and social enterprises where they're refurbished for low-income households
- WEEE-compliant recycling: Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment regulations require specialist treatment—fridges and freezers must have refrigerant gases safely extracted, metals separated, plastics recovered. We use only licensed WEEE recycling facilities
- Material recovery: steel from washing machine drums, copper from motors, aluminium from hobs—up to 90% of white goods by weight can be reclaimed and reprocessed
- Energy recovery: non-recyclable fractions go to energy-from-waste plants, not landfill
Every job includes documentation showing the licensed facility that accepted your waste. That's not just good practice—it's your legal protection. Under duty of care regulations, if your fridge ends up fly-tipped because you used a "man with a van" from a Facebook ad, you can be fined, even though you paid for removal. Our waste transfer notes prove the chain of custody remained legal throughout.
What White Goods and Bulky Items Do You Remove?
We take the full range of domestic and commercial white goods plus the bulky household items that council collections often refuse or charge separately for:
- Kitchen appliances: fridges, fridge-freezers, chest freezers, washing machines, tumble dryers, washer-dryers, dishwashers, cookers (electric and gas—disconnected by qualified tradesperson), hobs, ovens, range cookers, microwaves
- Furniture: sofas, armchairs, dining sets, wardrobes, bed frames, mattresses, office desks, filing cabinets
- Bulky waste: carpets, garden furniture, bikes, gym equipment, DIY waste (timber, plasterboard, bathroom suites—non-hazardous only)
- Green waste: soil, turf, branches, hedge trimmings (bagged or loose)
- Mixed clearances: full house, garage, shed, or office clearances where white goods are part of a larger job
What we can't take: asbestos, gas bottles (full or empty), chemicals (paint, solvents, oils, pesticides), hazardous waste, tyres, clinical/medical waste, or anything requiring specialist licensed disposal beyond our permits. For these, we'll recommend the correct licensed route.
Serving Every Corner of Hodge Hill
We cover the entire Hodge Hill area daily, including:
- Bordesley Green: frequent calls for white goods removal from pre-war terraces with narrow rear entries and side passages—our team navigates these with trolleys and protective sheeting
- Shard End: 1960s estate with mix of houses and low-rise flats; we're familiar with the resident parking schemes and loading bay protocols
- Hodge Hill village centre: flats above shops, tight parking, delivery restriction times—we schedule around local regulations
- Washwood Heath: commercial and residential mix; we handle both trade appliance disposal (restaurant equipment, salon kit) and domestic white goods
- Bromford: newer developments with allocated parking and estate management rules—we liaise with management companies when needed
A recent job in Bordesley Green: tenant moved out leaving an integrated fridge-freezer the landlord couldn't remove without dismantling the kitchen. We arrived same afternoon, safely extracted the unit without damaging cabinetry, and cleared the packaging from the replacement appliance the plumber installed an hour later. Landlord had new tenants in two days earlier than planned.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does white goods removal cost in Hodge Hill?
Price depends on item size, access difficulty, and whether it's a single appliance or part of a larger clearance. A standard fridge or washing machine from a ground-floor property with easy parking typically costs less than a heavy American-style fridge-freezer from a third-floor flat with no lift and permit-controlled parking. We quote upfront over the phone with no hidden fees—what we quote is what you pay, and that includes all labour, transport, disposal, and documentation.
Can you remove white goods the same day I call?
Yes, subject to availability. If you call before midday and we have a crew in the Hodge Hill area, we'll usually slot you in that afternoon. Bank holidays and weekends sometimes book up faster, so morning calls give you the best chance. If same-day isn't possible, we'll offer next-day or a specific time slot that suits you, including evenings.
Do I need to disconnect appliances before you arrive?
No—but we can only handle final disconnection after a qualified tradesperson has done gas or fixed electrical work. For example, if your cooker is hardwired or gas-connected, you'll need a Gas Safe engineer or electrician to safely isolate it first. For plug-in appliances (washing machines, fridges), we simply unplug and remove. If you're unsure, ask when you book—we'll talk you through what's needed.
What proof do I get that my waste was disposed of legally?
Every job includes a waste transfer note showing our waste carrier licence number, the facility that accepted your items, and the date. This is your legal protection under duty of care regulations. If your waste is fly-tipped by a rogue operator, the council can trace it back to you and issue a fine—even if you paid for removal in good faith. Our documentation proves you fulfilled your legal duty.
Can you remove items from difficult-access properties?
Yes—narrow stairs, tight corners, flats without lifts, and properties with restricted parking are routine for us. We carry equipment (straps, trolleys, protective sheeting) and have the training to move heavy appliances safely without property damage. If access is genuinely impossible (e.g., item won't physically fit through the doorway even dismantled), we'll assess options over the phone before visiting to save you a wasted callout.
Do you take sofas, mattresses, and other bulky waste as well as white goods?
Absolutely. Most customers combine white goods with furniture or general household clearance. We're a full-service waste collection and junk removal company—if it's non-hazardous and we can lift it, we'll take it. Combining items in one trip is more cost-effective than multiple specialist collections, and you deal with one team, one invoice, one waste transfer note for everything.
