Washing machines and dishwashers disconnected properly, water isolated, waste capped. Ready for removals van, no leaks, no damage.
### Get Appliances Ready for Moving Day
Removals company arrives tomorrow and you've just remembered the **washing machine is still plumbed in**. They won't touch it until it's disconnected, and you're not sure how to isolate the water without flooding the kitchen.
I'll disconnect everything safely - water turned off at isolators, supply hoses removed, waste pipes capped. Appliances ready for the removals van to collect, no puddles, no damage to connections.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Book disconnection for the day before moving. Gives you time to sort any issues, and you're not rushing to get it done before the removals van arrives at 8am.

What to Expect
### Step 1: Water Isolation Locate and turn off isolator valves for washing machine and dishwasher. If there aren't any, I'll turn off at the stopcock. ### Step 2: Disconnection Supply hoses removed carefully (there's always water in them). Waste hoses disconnected and capped so nothing leaks out. ### Step 3: Final Check Quick check nothing's leaking, appliances are ready to be moved. Water turned back on for the rest of the house if I used the stopcock.

Good to Know
> 🏠 **No isolator valves?** Common in older properties. I can fit them when reconnecting at your new place - makes life easier for next time. **Booking reconnection too?** Let me know when you book disconnection. I can often do both on the same day if you're moving locally, or arrange reconnection for when you're settled in. **Gas appliances** - I can't disconnect gas cookers or hobs. You need a Gas Safe registered engineer for those. I can recommend someone if you're stuck.
Frequently Asked Questions about White goods disconnection in Sidmouth
What appliances can you disconnect?
Washing machines, dishwashers, tumble dryers (if they're plumbed in), electric cookers. Basically anything that needs water or electric disconnecting before the removals company will touch it. Gas appliances need a Gas Safe engineer - I can't do those.
Will the removals company move them once disconnected?
Most will, yes - but check first. Some exclude white goods entirely. Make sure they know you're expecting them to move disconnected appliances so they bring appropriate covers and straps.
Can I disconnect them myself to save money?
You can, but washing machines and dishwashers need isolating properly or you'll flood the kitchen. If you know where the isolator valves are and how to cap the waste hose, go for it. If you're not sure, it's worth paying someone to do it right.
What if I don't have isolator valves?
Older installations sometimes don't have isolators. I can turn off the water at the stopcock, disconnect the appliance, then fit isolators before reconnecting at your new place. Means you won't have this issue next time you move.
How long before moving day should I book this?
Day before is ideal. Appliances disconnected, you can still use taps and toilet, and they're ready for the removals van in the morning. I can do moving day morning if needed, but timing gets tight.
