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.

Local knowledge
Fridge & freezer collection in Littlehampton: what we know locally
Every town has its own quirks. These are the things that shape fridge & freezer collection jobs in Littlehampton.
Flats and apartments
Littlehampton's converted flats and riverside blocks often involve stairs, tight landings and communal areas. We bring enough people to carry heavy items safely and protect communal floors and walls where the building requires it.
Council services and us
Arun District Council provides household bin collections, a chargeable bulky waste service and a garden waste subscription, and the county council runs the household waste recycling sites. For a large or mixed clearance, or when items need carrying out of the property, a single visit from us is usually simpler.
Landlords and lettings
Littlehampton has a large private rented sector, and letting agents and landlords use us to clear flats and houses between tenancies, often at short notice. We remove abandoned furniture, bags and white goods so the property is ready for cleaning and inspection.
Homes in Littlehampton
The streets between the station, the high street and the seafront are dominated by Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many converted into flats. Beach Town has larger villas and seafront houses, while Wick, Toddington and the northern estates are mostly post-war semis and terraces. Riverside developments near the harbour add a newer layer of apartments. Each property type needs a different approach, and we plan for it at the quoting stage.
What we take in Littlehampton
Every fridge & freezer collection job in Littlehampton is different, but these are the items we collect most often:
Fridges and freezersUnder-counter, upright and chest.
Fridge-freezersIncluding large American-style units.
Wine coolers and drinks fridgesDomestic and small commercial.

The detail
Why fridges need special handling
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.
Getting it out of the house
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.

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.
