Appliance Removal

As part of our delivery service we also provide an eco friendly removal of an old appliance for a fee of £9.99. When delivering your new appliance the drivers can take away the old appliance which will then be disposed of by us in an environmentally friendly manner. We also remove all the product packaging; again this is taken back to our warehouse and recycled - following the directive from the WEEE regulations.

With effect from July 2007, the UK's Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations encourages business and consumers to arrange collection and recycling of household electrical appliances. Electronic waste is one of the fastest growing waste streams increasing 5% per year, it has been estimated that landfill space in the UK will run out within the next 10 years.

To fulfil our obligations as a retailer, The Co-operative have contributed to the Valpak WEEE Distributor Take Back Scheme www.valpak.co.uk.

If you wish to utilise our removal service for laundry, dishwashers, cookers, and refrigeration products, simply click the box beside ‘Optional Removal’ on the products detail page when placing your order.

Please note that laundry and dishwashers will only be removed if disconnected and free of excess water. Refrigeration items must be fully disconnected and defrosted. Cookers can only be removed if disconnected and externally clean.

Unfortunately, we are not able to provide this service for range cookers, televisions, audio and small domestic appliances. To dispose of these items and to find out how you can minimise your effect on the environment please visit www.recycle-more.co.uk. You will also find advice and tips on how to recycle waste electrical goods and other household items, making it quick and easy for everyone to recycle-more!
