In August 2026, our four-person team completed an Appliance Removal in Beamish Street, Stanley, DH9, helping the customer clear unwanted electrical and household appliances from the property in a safe and organised way.
The job took approximately seven – eight hours and required one vehicle load. During the work, 1000 kg of material was measured for recycling, while appliances and household items identified by the customer for continued use were kept separately.
Once the agreed items had been removed, the property was left clear, accessible and ready for its next stage of use.

What Did the Appliance Removal Involve?
The property contained several unwanted household appliances that needed to be taken away as part of a planned clearance.
Before removal began, the team confirmed which items were leaving and which needed to remain. This avoided unnecessary handling and helped ensure that anything still in use stayed safely at the property.
The agreed appliances were then moved carefully from their locations, taken through the available access routes and loaded into the vehicle.
Items handled during an appliance collection may include:
- Washing machines
- Tumble dryers
- Fridges and freezers
- Cookers and ovens
- Dishwashers
- Microwaves
- Small electrical appliances
- Other unwanted household equipment
The exact items removed depend on the customer’s instructions and the condition of the appliances.
Safe Handling of Heavy Appliances
Large appliances can be difficult to move because of their weight, dimensions and position within a property.
Washing machines, fridge freezers and cookers may need to be carried through narrow doorways, hallways or steps before they can be loaded.
Using a four-person team allowed the work to be managed efficiently while reducing unnecessary risk to the property and surrounding areas.
Where required, access was checked before moving heavier items so the team could plan the safest route to the vehicle.
1000 kg Measured for Recycling
A key part of the job was separating recyclable material from general waste.
The recorded figure for this project was 1000 kg of measured recycling.
Electrical appliances can contain metals, plastics and other recoverable materials. Where suitable, these can be directed through appropriate recycling routes rather than treated as ordinary household rubbish.
Responsible handling is particularly important for electrical and electronic equipment, which may need to be processed through suitable waste streams.
One Vehicle Load
The agreed items were removed in one vehicle load.
Efficient loading helped make good use of the available space while keeping the collection straightforward.
For the customer, completing the work in a single load also meant the property could be cleared without unnecessary repeat visits.
How Long Did the Job Take?
With four clearance staff working on site, the proposed working time for this case study is approximately seven to eight hours.
The duration of an appliance removal can vary according to:
- Number of items
- Appliance size and weight
- Internal access
- Stairs or narrow corridors
- Parking distance
- Whether equipment is already disconnected
- Additional household contents
- Sorting requirements
A small collection may take much less time, while a larger property with difficult access may require several hours.
Items Kept at the Property
Not every appliance or household item needs to be removed.
For this project, items identified by the customer for continued use were kept separate from the clearance.
This is particularly useful where a property still contains working appliances, personal belongings or other contents that should remain after unwanted equipment has been taken away.
Clearly identifying retained items before work starts makes the process easier for both the customer and the clearance team.
The Result
After the agreed appliances had been removed, the property was left clear and accessible.
Recyclable materials had been separated as part of the process, while requested items remained in place.
The completed clearance made it easier for the customer to continue with cleaning, property preparation, replacement appliance installation or another planned use of the space.
