I have used Rubbish Removers 3 times now and they have always been professional and efficient. Darren was involved in the last job. We will use them again whenever we need rubbish removed. They lifted the old bedroom carpet without any mess and took it away.

High praise to this company. They rang 40 mins prior to arrival to say they were on their way. Demolished and cleared away our greenhouse within an hour. The weather was freezing . Highly recommended

Excellent service from Rubbish Removals. Arrived on time and considering they had a fair length down a long path to reach their truck, they removed quite a lot of kitchen appliances and a piece of furniture in next to no time. Would definitely recommend. Good price too, cheaper than local Council.

Appliance Removal in Wakefield is our priority, saving you the hassle of navigating heavy white goods through the narrow streets of local mining villages and terraced rows. We are The Rubbish Removers, a fully licensed family run business providing expert bulky waste collection directly from your property. Additionally as an Environment Agency Registered carrier, licence number CBDU409710, we give you complete peace of mind that your old fridge, washing machine, or cooker is disposed of legally and ethically.
Finding a reliable way to dispose of heavy items locally can be stressful, especially when council tips require permits and navigating tight colliery rows with a hired van is difficult. However, our uniformed two man teams are Trading Standards Approved and proud to be a Which? Trusted Trader, meaning we handle the heavy lifting safely and professionally. So whether you need a rapid same day response or a scheduled clearance, call our West Yorkshire team on 0113 450 8477 or WhatsApp a photo to 07802 860 731 for a fast, fixed quote.
Unlike the council pavement collections, we are happy to come inside and do the lifting. We take your heavy appliances directly from your kitchen, garage, or utility room.
Navigating the tight doorways of traditional red brick terraces requires skill. Our team takes care when moving bulky items, using protection to look after your floors, walls, and doorways.
Same day options are available if you call early. This is perfect for when your new washing machine or fridge freezer is arriving today and you need the old one gone fast.
We ensure proper handling of all electricals. Old fridges and appliances are taken to authorised treatment facilities so hazardous parts are dealt with correctly.

Recycling: You receive a digital Waste Transfer Note instantly. We also ensure 100 percent of fridges are de-gassed and processed at authorised treatment facilities.

We provide reliable appliance removal across Wakefield and the immediate surrounding districts. Our service areas also include Castleford, Pontefract, Normanton, Ossett, Horbury, Knottingley, and Featherstone.
Q: Do I need to get the item to the ground floor? A: No, you do not. Our trained two-man team collects from upstairs apartments or basements, doing all the heavy lifting safely for you.
Q: Is your disposal legal? A: Yes, absolutely. We are an Environment Agency Registered carrier under licence CBDU409710 and issue a proper Waste Transfer Note every time. All items go to licensed transfer stations for legal recycling.
Q: Can I take my own fridge to the local tip? A: You can, but Wakefield Council requires tip permits for vans. If you borrow a vehicle to move a heavy appliance, you risk being turned away without the correct paperwork.
Q: Does Wakefield Council collect from inside my house? A: No, they do not. The council operates a strict pavement only policy. This is extremely difficult for residents living in traditional red brick terraces or colliery rows who cannot physically lift a washing machine outside.
