Use the appliance’s own instructions
Different appliances have different requirements for draining, securing moving parts and transport orientation. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions and arrange any necessary qualified disconnection. Tell us about known weight and any restrictions on tilting. Do not assume one method suits every fridge or washing machine.
Plan appliance collection at the Newcastle-under-Lyme address
For appliance collection involving Newcastle-under-Lyme, give the full ST5 address and the exact entrance. Use the full name Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire and the complete ST5 address; do not shorten the destination to Newcastle or rely on a general town-centre reference. Identify the exact town-centre, university-area, business or residential entrance and record one-way streets, timed controls, floor level, carrying distance and lawful loading access.
Check Staffordshire County Council's roadworks map, traffic regulation orders, parking guidance and any required temporary traffic-management process and all current street signs close to the booked date. A postcode does not establish permission, vehicle suitability or a safe handover point; agree private access with the property contact and arrange any required council permission separately.
- For appliance collection, prepare: appliance model and size; preparation responsibilities; access and carrying route.
- Name the actual Newcastle-under-Lyme entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Separate transport from installation
Describe whether the appliance is freestanding, integrated or attached to surrounding furniture. It must be released and ready in the way agreed before collection. Gas, electrical and plumbing work are not automatically included. Plan reconnection with a suitable provider and keep any brackets, hoses or transit fittings identified for that appliance.
Your appliance collection details
