We’ll Take Your Old Appliance Away
When you order a new appliance from Buywise, you can also add a recycling service for your old one. That means you do not have to worry about how to dispose of a bulky washing machine, fridge freezer, cooker or other large household appliance yourself.
Our team will collect the old appliance when delivering your replacement, take it back to our warehouse, and make sure it goes through the proper recycling process. It is a straightforward way to clear space, reduce hassle and make sure your unwanted appliance is dealt with responsibly.
- Collection arranged with your new appliance delivery
- No need to transport heavy appliances yourself
- Handled by our team and returned to our warehouse
- Processed through the correct recycling channels
From Your Home To Our Warehouse
Our recycling service is designed to fit naturally into the delivery process. If you choose recycling when ordering your new appliance, our delivery team will take the old one away at the same time, subject to the appliance being ready for collection.
Once collected, the appliance is brought back to our warehouse. From there, it is sorted and passed into the correct recycling stream so that materials can be recovered and handled properly. This helps ensure appliances are not simply abandoned, stored unnecessarily or disposed of in the wrong way.
- You order your new appliance
- You add recycling at checkout where available
- Our team collects the old appliance on delivery day
- It is returned to our warehouse for processing

What Appliances Can We Take Away?
Recycling services are available on many of the appliances we sell, including laundry, refrigeration and cooking products. Availability can vary depending on the type of product, delivery method and your area, but common examples include:
- Washing machines
- Washer dryers
- Tumble dryers
- Dishwashers
- Fridge freezers
- Fridges and freezers
- Cookers, ovens and selected cooking appliances
If you are unsure whether your old appliance can be collected for recycling, our team can help confirm this before you place your order.
How To Prepare Your Old Appliance
To help everything go smoothly, your old appliance should be ready for collection before our team arrives. This helps avoid delays and makes the exchange process as quick and safe as possible.
- Disconnect the appliance if required before collection
- Empty all contents, shelves, trays or washing loads
- Defrost refrigeration appliances where needed
- Make sure access routes are clear
- Remove any integrated doors in advance where necessary
If access is restricted or the appliance has not been prepared, collection may not be possible on the day. A little preparation beforehand helps keep the process simple for everyone.
Giving Old Appliances A Proper End Of Life
Household appliances contain a mix of metals, plastics, wiring and other components that should not simply be thrown away with general waste. Recycling helps recover useful materials and supports more responsible disposal.
For customers, it is also about convenience. Replacing an old appliance is often already a big enough job without having to work out what to do with the one it replaces. By combining collection with delivery, we help remove that stress.
Our aim is to make the process easy, practical and clear — so when you upgrade to a new appliance, your old one can be taken away with confidence.
