Appliance collection in Edinburgh covers the EH1, EH2, EH3, EH4, EH5 postcode districts and 14 more, including The New Town area, then, in this case and Covers Leith. Send a photo, get a fixed price for the whole job, and leave the lifting to two people who carry washing machines and cookers every day.
Edinburgh is 6 miles from Musselburgh and 6 miles from Dalkeith, both of which we also cover, so a collection here is often combined with others nearby and can usually be fitted in quickly. Tell us when suits you and we book it. The crew arrives, lifts the appliance out and loads it, and you pay the quoted price once it is on the van.
Nothing we collect in Edinburgh is fly-tipped or left at the roadside. Appliances go to a licensed facility under our upper tier waste carrier licence, CBDU526130, where the steel, copper, plastics and glass are separated for recycling, or they are passed on for reuse where they still work. If you would rather use the bulky waste service from City of Edinburgh Council, it is booked ahead and the appliance usually has to be put outside on the day.
One fixed price from your photo
Send a picture, get a price for the whole job, pay once it is on the van. If anything looks different from the photo when we arrive, we tell you before we lift it.

How a Edinburgh collection works
-
Send a photo
Take a picture of the appliance where it stands and send it to us, with a line about the floor it is on and your Edinburgh postcode. The form on this page sends your details for you.
-
Get a fixed price
We reply with one price for the whole job: the carrying, the loading and the recycling. Nothing is added on the day.
-
Get it disconnected
Unplug it, turn the water off and take the hoses off. A gas cooker needs a Gas Safe registered engineer first, and a hard-wired one an electrician.
-
Pay once it is loaded
Two people carry the appliance out, lift it onto the van and you pay the quoted price. Collection in Edinburgh is offered same-day or next-day wherever possible.
Why people use us
Licensed waste carrier
Upper tier licence CBDU526130, registered with the Environment Agency. We can tell you where your appliance went and provide a waste transfer note.
Insured in your home
Public liability insurance up to £5 million and employers' liability of £10 million while the crew is carrying the appliance through your property.
Two people, every job
A washing machine or cooker is lifted and carried by two people, never dragged. More than 15 years of doing this and over 500 jobs completed.
Most of it is recycled
90% of what we collect is recycled, and appliances that still work well are passed on for reuse where possible.

Appliance removal in Edinburgh: questions answered
Which parts of Edinburgh do you cover?
We cover every Edinburgh postcode district: EH1, EH2, EH3, EH4, EH5, EH6, EH7, EH8, EH9, EH10, EH11, EH12, EH13, EH15, EH16, EH17, EH28, EH29 and EH99. If your postcode district is not in that list, send a photo anyway and we will tell you straight away.
How quickly can you collect an appliance in Edinburgh?
Same-day or next-day collection is offered wherever possible. Send your details early in the morning for the best chance of a slot that day, and we tell you what we can do before you commit.
Can you collect from a flat in Edinburgh?
Yes. Two people carry the appliance down the stairs or take it in the lift. Say which floor it is on and whether there is a lift, and the price we send already allows for the route.
Do you disconnect the appliance?
No. Have it unplugged with the water off and the hoses removed before we arrive. A gas cooker must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and a hard-wired cooker by an electrician.
What happens to my appliance after collection?
Working appliances in good condition are passed on for reuse where possible. The rest go for recycling at a licensed facility, where the metals, plastics, glass and motors are separated.
Why not use the council bulky waste collection in Edinburgh?
You can, through City of Edinburgh Council. It is booked ahead and the appliance usually has to go outside on the set day. We collect from the room it is in and aim for same-day or next-day where possible. Send a photo and compare.
