A washer or fridge from York to a Selby kitchen
Three Lakes Retail Park on Bawtry Road is The Range, B&M, Halfords and Pets at Home rather than an electrical store, so a new machine might come from the Monks Cross and Vangarde retail parks on the north-east side of York, about 19 miles away, or from a private seller in town. The van collects the boxed appliance, straps it and brings it back down the A19 or across the toll bridge. Send the model number so the size and weight are known before the van arrives.
Kitchens vary across town. A Barlby Bridge terrace may have a step into a back kitchen and a narrow door, a flat above a Gowthorpe shop means an inside stair, and a Staynor Hall kitchen has fitted housings with exact gaps. The machine is carried in and set where you want it; connecting it is a job for you or a plumber, and dishwashers, cookers and anything gas are not handled. A tall or American fridge-freezer is not something the van moves.
Before a new appliance arrives in Selby
- Send the model number with the width of the gap and of the tightest doorway between street and kitchen
- A new washer keeps its transit bolts in for the journey; they come out once it stands in its space
- If an old machine is in the way, empty its drum, unplug it and let the water drain the night before
- The council's bulky waste service, booked by you, handles an old washer or fridge that has to go
- Move bikes and shoes out of a Barlby Bridge hall, or boxes off a flat stair, so the trolley has a clear run

The machine's size and weight, the steps and doors between van and kitchen and where it is collected decide the fixed price, agreed before the van leaves. See how we quote for the full breakdown.
Appliance Delivery in Selby: your questions
Is plumbing the washer in part of the job?
No. The driver brings the machine into the kitchen and stands it in the gap; hooking it up is for you or a plumber. Dishwashers, cookers and gas appliances are outside the service.
What about an American-style fridge-freezer?
Tall and American fridge-freezers are not moved. An under-counter fridge or a medium fridge freezer is fine, so send its model number.
Could the old machine go back with the van?
No, an old appliance stays behind. North Yorkshire Council collects washers, fridges and cookers for a charge, or you can drive one to the Canal Road recycling centre yourself.
