A Star Waste Management did a great job clearing a big pile of old decking from my garden. They were efficient, reasonably priced and the men were polite and respectful, and were mindful not to damage any of my plants. Would definitely use their service 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 Southwick.
Southwick has a number of low-rise flats and maisonettes, particularly around Southwick Square and towards Fishersgate. Many have communal stairs and no lift, so we plan how to bring larger furniture down safely without damaging walls or banisters.
Southwick is part of Adur district, so bins, bulky waste collections and garden waste bins are handled by Adur & Worthing Councils. The council service suits a single item; we are the better fit when there is a lot to clear, or when it all needs carrying out of the house.
Rental properties around Southwick Square and Fishersgate change hands regularly. We help landlords and agents empty flats and houses quickly between tenancies, including clearing gardens and garages that have been left full.
Southwick's older properties are grouped around the Green and the streets leading off it, with cottages and period houses that have narrow hallways and tight staircases. Moving away from the centre, the roads towards Southwick Hill and the Downs are lined with 1930s semis and detached houses, many with garages and generous gardens. Fishersgate and the streets near the harbour have terraces and more recent housing.
Every fridge & freezer collection job in Southwick 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.
Southwick is around seven and a half miles east of our Worthing base, roughly twenty minutes along the A259 or A27. Here is how a typical fridge & freezer collection job in Southwick 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.

BeforeAfterBeforeAfterSuper 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.
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.
Collected the day following my initial message. Arrived in the morning and everything removed quickly and left tidy. Reasonable price too - excellent job! Thank you.
Jordan organized his crew to come and clear a mountain of rubbish from my back garden. A well overdue clearance all soggy and disintegrated and included a dead rat within..yuk. The lads did an amazing job. They were polite and courteous and worked flat out in the pouring rain. I can highly recommend them and will be using them again. I probably won't leave it so long next time though!
Such an amazing company! Communication was brilliant, the clean up was outstanding. Took everything little bit, was very pleased with the results. Also managed to fit me in very quickly which was a bonus! Will be using them again for sure! Thanks again guys.
