Kitchen items pickup from inside your home, not from the kerb

Dishwashers and fridge-freezers are very heavy, often far too heavy for one person to move safely. Municipal kerbside bulky-waste collection has a weight limit per piece and does not enter the apartment. We pick up cabinets, worktops, and appliances from inside the property, with dismantling included.

Single light utensils that you can carry yourself can be taken to a recycling center on your own. For fitted kitchens, heavy appliances, upper floors, or a renovation deadline, a booked pickup is the easier option. Have more than the kitchen to remove? See our bulky item disposal service.

Kitchen items we pick up in Zurich

We pick up fitted and freestanding kitchen items from homes and small businesses. If you also need furniture removed or the whole apartment emptied, see our furniture disposal and apartment / house clearance services.

Base and wall cabinets

Carcasses, doors, and plinths. We dismantle them on site with care for walls and tiles, then deliver the wood and metal parts to recycling centers. See also our wood disposal service.

Worktops and sink units

Laminate, wood, and composite worktops, plus sink modules. We separate them from the cabinets so that each material can be delivered to the right recycling center.

Fridges and freezers

Fridges and freezers need special handling of their refrigerants. We pick them up and deliver them to a recycling center that is equipped for this. They cannot be disposed of with a bulky-waste sticker.

Dishwashers, ovens, and hobs

Heavy white goods that are beyond the limits of kerbside collection. We deliver them to recycling centers for electrical appliances. More on electronic waste disposal.

Microwaves and small appliances

Countertop devices and small electrical items. We pick them up from your kitchen and deliver them to a recycling center for electrical appliances.

Kitchenware and mixed fittings

Utensils, shelves, and leftover hardware. We pick up all of it and deliver it to the appropriate recycling center.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I dispose of an old kitchen in Zurich?

Send us photos via WhatsApp or the booking form. We assess the items, send a quote, usually within the hour, and arrange the pickup for your preferred date, often the same or the next day. You do not need a bulky-waste sticker for our service.

Can you remove a full fitted kitchen?

Yes. We pick up complete fitted kitchens, including cabinets, worktops, and appliances. We dismantle on site where needed and carry from any floor.

Can municipal bulky-waste collection take my old kitchen?

In most cases, no. Municipal collection accepts only pieces up to a certain weight and requires a bulky-waste sticker. Dishwashers, fridges, base cabinets, and worktops are usually heavier, and the collection does not take place from inside your home.

Do you offer same-day kitchen disposal?

Yes, across Zurich and surrounding cantons, subject to capacity. Send your request before noon for the best chance of same-day pickup.

Can you pick up from the third floor without a lift?

Yes. We carry from any floor, with or without a lift, using suitable equipment and wall protection.

How are kitchen appliances disposed of responsibly?

We pick up fridges and freezers and deliver them to recycling centers equipped to handle their refrigerants. We deliver dishwashers, ovens, and microwaves to recycling centers for electrical appliances. See our electronic waste disposal Service.

Do you also offer apartment clearance?

Yes. If the whole apartment needs to be emptied, see our apartment / house clearance service. You can describe everything you need in the quote form.
