Fridge & freezer collection Chichester
We carry out old fridges, freezers and white goods from wherever they are and send them for proper recycling, where refrigerant gases are safely removed.
Fridge and freezer collection in Chichester is quick and simple. Chichester is about twenty miles west of our Worthing base along the A27, around forty minutes by road, so we book Chichester work in planned slots. We carry old fridges, freezers and white goods out of homes, flats and businesses across Chichester city centre, Summersdale, Parklands, Whyke and Donnington.
Every appliance collected in Chichester goes to licensed WEEE recycling, where refrigerant gases and foam are removed safely and the metal and plastic are recovered.
Saw one of there trucks driving through Worthing, called the number today. Sent a picture of what we needed clear. They came back straight away with a price and were able to pick it all up on the same day. Really friendly team and great service. Will definitely be using this company again.

We collect fridges, freezers, fridge-freezers and American-style units from homes, flats, garages and businesses, carrying them out from wherever they are, including upstairs flats and awkward kitchens. We also take other white goods, such as washing machines, tumble dryers, dishwashers and cookers, in the same visit.

Every town has its own quirks. These are the things that shape fridge & freezer collection jobs in Chichester.
The city centre has flats above shops and in converted period buildings, and there are modern apartment blocks at Graylingwell and around the station. We work within managing agents' rules, protect communal areas and plan the carry-out in advance.
Chichester District Council handles household bins, a chargeable bulky waste service and a garden waste subscription, and the county council runs the household waste recycling sites. For larger clearances, a single booked visit from us is often more practical than several trips.
Chichester's university and hospital create steady demand for rented rooms and flats. We help landlords and letting agents clear properties between tenancies and prepare homes for new tenants.
Inside the city walls, Chichester has Georgian and older townhouses, many listed, with narrow staircases, cellars and small courtyards. Summersdale, Parklands, Whyke and Donnington are mostly inter-war and post-war semis and detached houses, while Graylingwell and the newer developments on the edge of the city are modern family homes and apartments. Selsey and the Witterings have a lot of bungalows, holiday homes and chalets.
Every fridge & freezer collection job in Chichester is different, but these are the items we collect most often:
The detail
Older fridges and freezers can contain CFCs or HCFCs, and newer ones contain HFCs or hydrocarbons, both in the cooling circuit and in the insulating foam inside the walls. Specialist treatment plants degas the circuit and process the foam in sealed conditions so that these gases are captured rather than released.
Because of that extra treatment, fridges and freezers cost more to dispose of than general waste. It is also why it is worth using a licensed carrier: a fridge that ends up dumped or stripped for scrap can leak gases and oil into the environment.
Fridges and American-style fridge-freezers are heavy, awkward and easy to damage walls and floors with. We bring enough people to carry them safely, take doors off where necessary to get through tight spaces, and protect floors on the way out.
Please switch the appliance off and defrost it at least a day before we come. It saves water leaking through your house and our van.
Chichester is about twenty miles west of our Worthing base along the A27, around forty minutes by road, so we book Chichester work in planned slots. Here is how a typical fridge & freezer collection job in Chichester works:
WhatsApp a few pictures of the waste and the route to the road, or call 01903 962 492. Tell us your postcode and when suits you.
We reply with a fixed quote based on what we can see. No hidden extras, no pressure, and no obligation to book.
Our team arrives on the agreed day, carries everything out, loads the van and sweeps up behind us.
Waste goes to licensed facilities to be sorted and recycled where possible. Businesses get a waste transfer note.
We quote every job individually from photos, so you know the cost before we arrive. The main factors are:
Each unit has its own disposal cost.
Fridges and freezers cost more to recycle than washing machines.
Large American-style units take more handling.
Stairs and tight kitchens take longer.
Adding other rubbish to the same visit is often good value.
Responsible disposal
All fridges, freezers and white goods go through licensed WEEE recycling. Refrigerant gases and insulation foam are captured at specialist treatment plants, and metals and plastics are recovered for reuse.
Whoever takes your waste, check they are a registered waste carrier. Householders have a legal duty of care, and if waste you paid someone to remove is fly-tipped it can be traced back to you. We are licensed and insured, take every load to authorised facilities, and are always happy to show our credentials.

BeforeAfterBeforeAfterCollected the day following my initial message. Arrived in the morning and everything removed quickly and left tidy. Reasonable price too - excellent job! Thank you.
Just used A Star Waste Management and the service was fantastic. The chap was extremely polite and efficient and I would certainly use this company again and recommend them whenever I can.
Super helpful! I sent a message on WhatsApp on the weekend and got a reply the same day with a price. They came and collected 2 days later and all was left clean and tidy. Really efficient. Would highly recommend.
Bit of a mix up with timings but once arrived the boys were quick, efficient and very thorough in their work. There was an awful lot of stuff in our garage that was not being used and we needed it clearing for selling our house.
I chose A Star waste management as I was very pleased with the service provided previously they removed a lot of household rubbish for me quote was very reasonable and affordable nice guys came today for garden waste again good service will definitely use them again highly recommend THANKYOU

Our quotes are all-inclusive. Because Chichester is further from our base, very small single-item jobs may not be the most economical option compared with the council's bulky waste service, and we will be upfront about that.
