These guys were great. Only had to book a couple of days in advance, very reasonable quote, and got my furniture cleared and bin emptied. 2 very friendly lads helped me to move it out the house and was able to pay on card too! Would recommend :)

Can't fault the service and professionalism of this company. I used them to remove a large fridge/freezer that was passed it's best. They arrived when they said they would, they were pleasant and friendly and very efficient! They took my payment by card and it was £40 cheaper than my local authority. I will definitely recommend to my friends, in fact one-off the neighbours has already asked me for their number!!

We Do The Heavy Lifting
Removing a heavy fridge in South Yorkshire can be a back-breaking struggle, especially on the steep hills of Sheffield or the narrow colliery rows of Barnsley. Fortunately, our family-run team at The Rubbish Removers Ltd excels at doing the heavy lifting for you. With our uniformed two-man teams, you never need to struggle with narrow doorways or steep stairs, because we can collect your appliance straight from any room. Plus, as a Which? Trusted Trader and also a Trading Standards Approved Buy With Confidence member, you can have complete peace of mind that your home is in safe hands.

Because we are an Environment Agency Registered waste carrier (licence number CBDU409710), we ensure your old appliance is handled legally and responsibly. We also prioritise safe WEEE recycling, properly de-gassing fridges and diverting them from landfill. Whether you need an emergency same-day collection before a new freezer arrives, or a scheduled weekend pick-up, our polite crews are ready to help.
So, call our South Yorkshire team today on 0114 438 7272 to get your space back.
Unlike the council, which only allows curbside collection, we come right into your kitchen or utility room. This means you never have to drag heavy appliances down the path, as we do all the lifting for you.
We carefully navigate tight corners, narrow terraced hallways and steep stairs. Where needed, we use protection to safeguard your floors, walls as well as doorways during the removal.
If you’re in a hurry, we offer a same-day service option. This is perfect when your brand-new fridge freezer is arriving and you need the old one removed quickly.
No matter the size, we handle everything from standard under-counter units to large American-style fridge freezers and also chest freezers.

What We Take
Single Item
– Prices start from £80 + VAT. This is ideal for a standalone bulky item such as a fridge, American freezer or washing machine. It’s faster and cheaper than a council bulky collection.
Quarter Van Load
– Holds roughly 20–30 bin bags or 2–3 cubic yards. For example it’s perfect for clearing multiple kitchen appliances or trade waste during a refit.
Half Van Load
– Approximately 6 cubic yards, comparable to a standard builders’ skip. Without permit fees or tramline blocking, so it’s ideal for a full kitchen strip-out.
Full Van Load
– 12–14 cubic yards or up to 800kg payload. For example, this large capacity, equivalent to about two standard skips, is suitable for large commercial kitchen clearances.

Our polite two-man team arrives within a specific time window. We always call ahead, so you’re never left waiting.
We then carefully carry it out. Our crews take extra care to protect your floors and walls during the removal.
Then we’ll provide an instant digital Waste Transfer Note for your records. All fridges are de-gassed and processed via proper WEEE recycling channels, keeping your home as well as the environment safe.
Do I need to get the item to the ground floor?
No. Our two-man team collects from upstairs flats, basements or kitchens, so you don’t have to lift a finger.
Do you take large or awkward items like American fridges?
Yes. We have the right vehicles and also tools to manage extra-large appliances and safely navigate them through tight doorways.
Is your disposal legal?
Yes. We operate under Environment Agency licence CBDU409710. We ensure all recycling is completely legal at authorised treatment facilities, fulfilling your Duty of Care.
I live on a narrow street in Barnsley, can you still help?
Yes. Our vans are much more mobile than skip lorries and furthermore, we handle loading quickly to avoid blocking tight on-street parking in colliery rows.
Can I take my own fridge to a South Yorkshire recycling centre?
You can, but it comes with challenges. For example, many centres require a van permit or proof of residence. Because of this, we save you the heavy lifting and hassle entirely.
