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.

Moving a fridge in the Rossendale Valley presents unique challenges, from the steep gradients of stone-paved streets to the narrow doorways of traditional terraced cottages. We understand these local logistical pain points and provide a service designed to overcome them.
Unlike curbside collections, we don’t expect you to move a heavy appliance yourself. Instead, our two-man teams come inside, carefully navigating tight hallways to collect your fridge directly from the kitchen, cellar or garage.
Above all, we treat your home with respect. Our trained crews protect floors, walls and also lifts, using appropriate equipment to ensure no damage occurs during removal.
When timing matters, such as when a new appliance is arriving, we often offer same-day collection to keep your home clear and furthermore, disruption free.
Finally, we ensure 100% of fridges are degassed and recycled at authorised treatment facilities, fully complying with strict hazardous waste regulations.
While the council offers a collection service, it is often restricted to curbside-only pickup, which is physically difficult for many residents in terraced properties.
| Feature | The Rubbish Removers | Local Council Collection |
|---|---|---|
| Collection Point | Any Room / Upstairs – We disconnect and carry it out. | Curbside Only – You must drag it to the street. |
| Speed | Same Day / 24 Hours – Fast response. | Variable – Often requires booking weeks in advance. |
| Heavy Lifting | 2-Man Team Included – We do all the work. | Zero Assistance – Drivers rarely assist with lifting. |
| Item Limits | Multiple Items – We take everything in one go. | Strict Limits – Often restricted to specific item counts. |
What we take – We have the vehicles and manpower to handle all types of refrigeration units and associated kitchen waste:
Our pricing is transparent and based on the volume and also the type of waste we remove. Unlike hiring a skip, you only pay for the item we take, not for fresh air.
– Approximately 20–30 bin bags (2–3 cubic yards).
– Perfect if you’re clearing a fridge along with a small amount of waste, such as kitchen renovation debris or old tiles.
– Around 6 cubic yards (50–60 bin bags).
– Comparable to a standard 6-yard builders’ skip, but without the hassle of loading it yourself.
– Therefore, it’s ideal for a full kitchen strip-out, including cupboards and appliances.
– Approximately 12–14 cubic yards (100+ bin bags).
– Equivalent to around two standard 8-yard skips.
– As a result, this option is best suited for large commercial clear-outs or multiple bulky appliances.

We cover the entire Rossendale Valley and surrounding areas. Here are a few examples of how we navigate the local landscape:
American Fridge Removal in a Valley Terrace
We removed a heavy American-style unit from a property with steep stone steps. Using specialised straps, our team safely manoeuvred the appliance down the gradient without damaging the paving.
Cellar Freezer Clearance in a Stone Cottage
A customer needed a chest freezer removed from a cellar with narrow access. Despite the tight stairs, we carefully lifted the unit out while protecting door frames and walls.
Kitchen Renovation Clearance
Alongside fridge removal, we cleared old cupboards and tiles from a property where a skip couldn’t be used due to narrow streets. As a result, our “Wait & Load” service removed all waste immediately.

We make the process simple, safe, and efficient.
1. Get a Quote – First, give us a call, fill in our contact form or you can also WhatsApp a photo of your fridge to 07802 860 731 for a fast response.
2. We Arrive – Next, our uniformed two-man team arrives within a specific time window, and we’ll call ahead, so you’re not left waiting.
3. We Remove – Then, we carefully carry it out from your kitchen, cellar or storage area.
4. Recycling – Finally, your fridge is taken to a licensed recycling facility, where it is safely degassed and recycled. In addition, you’ll receive a Waste Transfer Note for your records.
We provide our fully licensed service across the borough and the wider valley area, including:
Do I need to get the fridge to the ground floor?
No. In fact, our professional team collects from any room, including basements, cellars or also upstairs apartments. We handle all the heavy lifting and manoeuvring, which is especially helpful in the steep, multi-level properties common across the Rossendale Valley.
Do you take large or awkward items like American fridges?
Yes. Our vans are large enough to accommodate American-style fridge freezers and also commercial chest freezers. Moreover, our team has the experience to move bulky items safely through tight domestic spaces.
Is your disposal legal?
Absolutely. As an Upper Tier Waste Carrier registered with the Environment Agency (CBDU409710), we ensure all fridges, classified as hazardous waste, are disposed of in full compliance with WEEE regulations at licensed facilities.
I live on a narrow street in Rossendale, can you still help?
Yes. Because we’re local, we understand the challenges of narrow, cobbled valley streets. Our vans are more manoeuvrable than skip lorries, allowing us to access tight locations and load quickly and furthermore, legally.
Can I take my own fridge to the recycling centre?
You can; however, transporting a fridge requires a suitable vehicle to keep it upright and protect the coolant system. In addition, many tips operate van permit schemes and height barriers, which can prevent access. As a result, our service saves you time, hassle, and the risk of vehicle damage.
