How to dispose of an old fridge, freezer

old fridge disposal
Fridges and Freezers cannot be taken by scrap collectors anymore. This is because they contain harmful greenhouse gasses that are not good for the environment.

Most house clearances we do will have a fridge or a freezer and they have to be disposed of properly with specialised treatment for the removal of the harmful gasses.

Lancashire House Clearance will take old fridges and freezers but it is not cheap to dispose of these so we advise you to contact your local authority first. They often have a large item collection service and will almost certainly be cheaper than us or any of our competitors.

If someone offers to take a fridge away for a tenner, you know its going to end up fly tipped and become someone else's problem. If this is traced back to you, you will be equally guilty in the eyes of the law.

Always use a licenced waste carrier and ask where they are taking it.

Why Avoid Void Properties and How Lancashire House Clearance Can Help Void properties, also known as empty or vacant properties, can be tempting options due to potentially lower acquisition costs. However, there are several downsides to consider before moving forward.

This can lead to additional repair costs and legal issues. Challenges in Finding Tenants: Potential tenants might be wary of moving into a property that has been empty for a while, fearing potential problems. Marketing an empty property can also be more challenging. Health and Safety Hazards : Stagnant water, mold growth, and pest infestations are common issues in vacant properties, posing health risks to future occupants and requiring specialized cleaning. How Lancashire House Clearance Can Help: Property Clearance: Lancashire House Clearance can remove unwanted furniture, appliances, and debris from the void property, making it more appealing to potential tenants.

Staging and Presentation: They can help stage the property by arranging furniture and decor, making it more inviting to potential tenants. In short, Lancashire House Clearance can help you: Reduce the financial burden of managing a void property. Make the property more appealing to potential tenants. Minimize the risk of security concerns and health hazards. Get the property ready for a quicker and more profitable sale or rental.
