Hi Gletty,If you are near a main road or near bins, you can put fridgefreezer outside your front gate and for sure the bin raiders or scrap people will pick it up. If it sits there for more than hour i will be surprised.

Sadly, the bin hockers have little or no interesting in old fridge/freezers. We tried to get rid of ours that way but were refused. We got some help carrying it over to the bins and left it there. It was removed within a day or two by the council thankfully.

In Torrevieja you have to call 966702390 , they then tell you what day they will collect it, that's when you put it by the bins. The council now have a squad of 10 electric scooters (motorbike ones) that patrol the area looking for flytippers, so beware.
I think in Quesada you also have to call the council for collection

I know this is an off the wall question, but I am looking for boxes for my freezer. It came with empty shelves and jts difficult to stack. The size I need is 30 x 23 x 24cm

Yes someone has dumped a huge cabinet at the top of our road, been there for three weeks, gradually all the glass has been smashed. Always decided never to buy a property near a bin.
