What does appliance disposal cost in Truro?

Every job is different. Your price depend on the scope of the work and access and timing, so the quickest way to an exact figure is to send your details. Our cost guide gives typical UK prices.

Do I need to disconnect the appliance before you arrive?

Plug-in appliances only need to be unplugged, and fridges and freezers should be switched off and defrosted 24 hours ahead, with the water mopped up. Washing machines and dishwashers can usually be disconnected on the day if the valves turn off cleanly. Hard-wired cookers must be disconnected by an electrician, and any gas cooker, hob or tumble dryer must be capped off by a Gas Safe registered engineer before it can be moved.
