Fridge disposal is not a normal bulky item collection. Cooling appliances need the right disposal route because of the gases and components inside them, and that means the fastest legal option is usually a booked collection through a licensed carrier.
Why fridge disposal is different
Old fridges and freezers cannot just be thrown into mixed waste. They need to go to a facility that can handle de-gassing and compliant processing. That is why speed matters less than using the correct route.

When the fridge is part of a larger clear-out
If the appliance is only one part of the job, it may be better to combine it with house clearance or a mixed bulky collection instead of treating it as a one-item booking. For one fridge only, the cleaner route is usually the dedicated fridge disposal path.
