Friendly, professional and quick service! Tom and Barry were great calling me half an hour before arriving, and observed all social distancing regulations etc, and Richard was very helpful on the phone fitting me in same day. Overall very satisfied and would recommend.
GraceyAbsolutely brilliant! The two lads were quick and efficient with big smiles on their faces, despite the cold. Twenty four hours from the initial enquiry, the job was completed. That’s proper service.
GrahamThey did an excellent job and cleared my Mums flat quickly. I would recommend them to everyone and I would use them again. My mum had recently passed away so it was a difficult time but they were also understanding of the circumstances.

We Collect From Inside: High Peak Borough Council collections are strictly pavement only, which presents a major challenge if you live in a property with steps or you’re dealing with the harsh winter weather the Peak District is famous for. Unlike the council, our team enters your kitchen, cellar or utility room to disconnect and remove the fridge directly. Therefore, you don’t have to drag a heavy appliance out into the snow or rain.
Protection & Care: We are also accustomed to navigating the unique architecture of the High Peak, from the tight doorways of Glossop’s terrace streets to the winding staircases of Georgian properties in Buxton. We use protective gear and lifting straps to ensure your stone floors, carpets and walls remain scratch free during the removal process.
Same-Day Service Available: Don’t let an old appliance clutter your home while waiting weeks for a collection slot. We also provide a responsive service, often able to collect your old unit the very same day your new one arrives. Therefore, we act as an efficient skip hire alternative, removing the item immediately without a permit.
All Models Taken: From massive American-style fridge freezers that won’t fit in a car to commercial chest freezers from local cafes, we have the vehicles as well as the manpower to handle them all. We also handle full kitchen rip-outs if you are renovating.

• American Fridge Removal in Glossop: We removed a heavy American-style unit from a terraced property where the front door opened directly onto the pavement. Therefore, our team managed the tight access safely without blocking the public footpath or causing disruption to neighbours.
• Commercial Freezer Clearance in Buxton: We collected two large chest freezers from a hospitality business near the Crescent. Moreover, we utilised a “Wait & Load” service to avoid parking issues in the busy town centre, providing a Waste Transfer Note instantly.
• Farmhouse Utility Clear-out near Snake Pass: A rural property needed an old fridge and general waste removed. We navigated the narrow access lane and removed the items despite the poor weather conditions, saving the owner a difficult trip to the Waterswallows tip.
1. Get a Quote: Give us a call, fill in our contact form or WhatsApp a photo of the item to 07802 860 731.
2. We Arrive: Our uniformed 2-man team arrives in a specific window, giving you a call 30 minutes before we get there.
3. We Remove: We carefully disconnect (if required) and carry the fridge out, ensuring no damage to stone floors or narrow hallways common in High Peak cottages. We also sweep up any dust or debris revealed behind the appliance.
4. Recycling: 100% of fridges are de-gassed and recycled legally at licensed transfer stations.
We cover the entire High Peak borough and surrounding villages, ensuring no remote cottage is left without service:
Q: Do I need to get the item to the ground floor?
A: No. Our professional two-man teams are trained to collect items from anywhere in the property, including basements, cellars and upstairs apartments. We do the heavy lifting so you don’t have to risk injury.
Q: Do you take large/awkward items like American Fridges?
A: Yes. We have large Luton vans and the necessary equipment to handle bulky American-style fridge freezers.
Q: Is your disposal legal?
A: Absolutely. We are also Environment Agency Registered (CBDU409710). Therefore, you will receive a Waste Transfer Note upon completion, proving that your waste has been handled responsibly and legally.
Q: Does High Peak Council collect from inside my house?
A: No. High Peak Borough Council generally offers pavement collection only. This can be extremely difficult for residents in terraced properties in Glossop or hillside homes in Buxton where getting a heavy item to the pavement is unsafe or physically impossible.
Q: I live on a narrow street in Glossop, can you still help?
A: Yes. We know that parking in the tight terraced grid of Glossop can be difficult. Our vans are more mobile than large skip lorries and we can perform a “Wait & Load” service, meaning we don’t need to park for long periods or block the road.
Q: Can I take my own fridge to Waterswallows tip?
A: You can, but it requires a vehicle large enough to transport it upright to avoid damaging the compressor gases. Additionally, the Waterswallows site is notoriously exposed to the elements and can be difficult to access during snow or ice. We save you the hassle and the cold trip.
