How It Works

Collection or Drop-Off

We collect white goods directly from your sites nationwide using our own haulage fleet. No subcontractors. Collections are scheduled around your operations -whether that's a one-off property clearance, a regular social housing contract, or bulk retailer returns.

Assessment for Reuse

At our facility, appliances are assessed for reuse potential. Working units in good condition are tested and diverted to reuse partners, extending their lifecycle and improving your circular economy metrics.

Depollution & Component Extraction

Appliances not suitable for reuse are depolluted. Gas cookers are made safe. Motors, compressors, and electronic components are extracted. Any hazardous materials are handled under licensed processes.

WEEE Treatment & Recycling

Depolluted appliances are processed at our licensed WEEE treatment facilities. Metals (steel, copper, aluminium), plastics, and electronic components are separated and sent to approved downstream recyclers. Nothing goes to landfill.

Documentation & Reporting

Every collection is fully documented. You receive duty of care paperwork, WEEE transfer notes, weight data, and ESG-ready reports covering recycling rates, reuse volumes, and carbon impact.

What types of white goods do you accept?
We accept all large domestic appliances: washing machines, tumble dryers, washer-dryers, dishwashers, cookers, ovens, and hobs. Fridges and freezers require specialist ODS degassing and are covered under our dedicated fridge recycling service.

Yes. We work with white goods retailers and distributors handling end-of-line stock, customer returns, and trade-in appliances. Speak to our team about volumes and collection frequency.
Do you assess appliances for reuse before recycling?
Yes. Working appliances in good condition are tested and diverted to reuse partners where viable. This improves your overall diversion rate and supports circular economy commitments.
