Buying a new one
Shops must take back your old appliance free when you buy a new one that does the same job. That is usually the cheapest route.
Council collection
Bury's count list gives a washing machine or dryer as three of your five items and a television as two (checked against Bury Council and Recycle for Greater Manchester pages on 2 November 2026). Check the council's list for fridges and freezers and how many items yours counts as before booking. Bury says items must be left whole at your usual bin point, front garden or driveway, and it will not collect from a back garden, yard, shed, garage or from inside a property, including flats.

Fridges, freezers, washers and dryers can go to Every Street in Bury or Cemetery Road in Radcliffe. Empty fridges and freezers first. A working appliance in good condition can be donated instead.
Private collection
A licensed company can take it straight from the kitchen. As a UK guide, expect roughly £30 to £70.
