Exeter, Devon
White goods collected from shop or seller and delivered safely to your home. Carried in, positioned where you want it, old appliance removed if needed.
Don't Risk Your Back or Your New Appliance
Just bought a washing machine from Facebook Marketplace or a shop that charges £50+ for delivery, and you're wondering if you can squeeze it into your hatchback. Spoiler: you can't, and hiring a van for the day costs almost as much as delivery anyway.
I'll collect it and deliver it properly. Appliance secured in the van, driven to yours, carried in carefully, positioned where you want it. Old one can go away for disposal at the same time if you need.
💡 Pro tip: Factor in delivery when comparing prices. Shops charging £200 with free delivery might actually be cheaper than a £150 appliance you have to collect yourself and pay for delivery.

What to Expect
Step 1: Collection
I'll meet seller/shop, check the appliance for obvious damage, and load it securely into the van. If it's from a private seller and looks dodgy, I'll flag it before loading.
Step 2: Transport
Appliance secured so it can't move around in transit. Driven carefully - washing machine drums and fridge compressors don't like being bounced around.
Step 3: Delivery & Positioning
Carried into your home (upstairs is fine), positioned where you want it. Old appliance can go out at the same time if you're swapping.
🔧 DIY Tips
Attempting it yourself? Know what you're in for:
🔧 What you'll need
- Van hire (transit-size for fridges)
- Trolley or sack truck for moving
- Blankets to protect appliance and van
- Someone strong to help (appliances are heavy)
- Straps to secure it in van
📐 Transport safely
- Remove all packaging before loading (easier to handle)
- Keep appliance upright (especially fridges)
- Strap it securely so it can't move
- Drive carefully - no harsh braking
- Recruit help for unloading
⚠️ Common DIY mistakes
- Laying fridge flat (damages compressor)
- Not securing load (appliance slides into van wall)
- Trying to maneuver washing machine alone
- Not measuring doorways first
💡 Pro trick: If transporting a fridge, keep it upright and let it stand for 4 hours after delivery before plugging in. The compressor oil needs to settle or you risk damaging it.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
🏠 Older Exeter properties? Narrow doorways and steep stairs are common. I've delivered appliances into some tight spots. If I think it won't fit, I'll tell you before attempting it.
Installation too? If you want the appliance connected and tested, let me know when booking. Simple swap installations (like-for-like) I can do same visit. Complex installations might need a separate appointment.
Disposal charges - Fridge and freezer disposal costs a few pounds at the recycling centre (special handling needed). Other white goods are free to dispose of. I'll let you know the exact amount.
Frequently Asked Questions
What counts as white goods delivery?
Washing machines, dishwashers, tumble dryers, fridges, freezers, cookers - basically large kitchen appliances. I'll collect from the shop, private seller, or warehouse and deliver to your house. Can install them too if you want.
Can you deliver and install on the same trip?
Yes, usually. If it's a simple swap (old washing machine out, new one in and connected), that's all done in one visit. If installation is complex or needs parts I don't have, I might need to come back.
What if it won't fit up my stairs?
I'll measure doorways and stairways before attempting it. Most appliances fit through standard doors if you remove packaging and take doors off hinges. American-style fridge freezers can be problematic in older houses - I'll advise honestly if it won't go.
Will you remove my old appliance?
Yes, I can take the old one away and dispose of it properly. There's a fee for disposal at the recycling centre for fridges/freezers (they need safe handling), but it's usually only a few pounds.
How far will you collect from?
Within reasonable distance of Exeter - say 30-40 miles. If you've bought from further away, we can discuss but it'll affect the price based on travel time.
