White goods removal

Removing white goods usually starts with Taskers uninstalling the items from their current location and preparing them for the actual removal. If you’re unaware, each appliance may require specific steps, making the process different for all. For example, washing machines need their tubs cleaned to remove residue, while refrigerators should be defrosted. Dishwashers need their water lines inspected.


If you only need individual items removed, such as your hot tub or fridge, book them as separate services instead. Otherwise, a general white goods removal expert can handle removal needs for multiple items.

Moving office

£80

Pilrig, City of Edinburgh

12th May 2025

I’m moving my small, one-person studio office from Studio 5 to Studio 9—it’s just four doors down the same corridor (same floor, no stairs). I have a heavy-duty trolley (300kg capacity) to help. I will have most of the boxes packed, and your main task will be to move boxes, a large mirror, IKEA Kallax units, IKEA shelving, some furniture, and boxes of products. There is one very heavy desk which will likely require two people to lift safely, as I’ve injured my back and won’t be able to assist. Two people would be ideal to speed up the job and safely handle the heavier items, but a strong single person may be able to manage most of it with the trolley (apart from the desk). This is a small personal office (just me), so it’s not a huge or complex job—just shifting items down the corridor. Looking for someone (or a team of two) who is careful, efficient, and can work around fragile items.
