Read moreSell Your Aga in Yorkshire
Selling an Aga cooker can feel complicated, but it doesn’t have to be. At John Wray Range Cookers, we’ve worked with Agas for more than three decades across Yorkshire, the North East and parts of Cumbria. We buy all types of Aga including gas, oil and electric models. You’ll get a fair offer, safe removal by specialists and prompt payment.
Why Sell Your Aga to Us
Experience that protects your home. Moving an Aga is not like moving a standard cooker. It is heavy cast iron with enamel surfaces that can chip if mishandled. Our engineers dismantle, protect, and load every section with care. Floors and worktops are protected. We leave your kitchen tidy.
Straightforward quoting. We value on age, model, fuel type, size, condition and access. You get a clear offer without pressure. If you accept, we book a date that suits you.
Collection where you live. We cover Yorkshire and the North. Collection is quoted by distance from our showroom. If access is tricky we can plan additional equipment or an extra pair of hands.
Prompt payment. You are paid by bank transfer or another agreed method on collection or beforehand. No chasing and no uncertainty.
Honest advice. If selling is not your best option we will say so. Many owners discover that conversion, refurbishment or re-enamelling gets them what they want without parting with the cooker they love.
What We Buy
We consider most traditional cast-iron Agas, including the common sizes and several less typical configurations:
- 2-oven, 3-oven and 4-oven models. From compact two ovens through to larger family cookers, we buy a wide range of sizes.
- Gas, oil and electric versions. Each fuel has different refurbishment paths and value points, which we factor into your offer.
- Older and newer enamel colours. Classic creams, deep greens, blues and modern shades are all of interest.
- Working, non-working and part complete units. Even if the burner is removed or the hotplates no longer heat, many parts retain value.
If you are unsure which model you have, do not worry. Clear photos will help us identify the model, the door layout and the key components. If anything is missing, we will tell you how that affects pricing so you can decide with full information.
How to Prepare Your Aga for Sale
You do not need to make it perfect, but a little preparation helps you achieve the best result.
Thorough clean: Clean ovens, hotplates, doors and the enamel front. A clean Aga photographs well and shows it has been cared for.
Inspect and note: Check door seals, hinges, thermostat and flue parts. Note any issues. Keep any manuals, spares and service records.
Take clear photos:
- Front view with doors closed
- Lids up showing hotplates
- Each oven interior
- Side panels and handrails
- Any chips, rust or dents
- Flue route and termination
- A wide shot of the room and access route to the door
Access check: Measure key doorways and tight turns. Tell us about steps, narrow paths and parking restrictions. This helps us plan safe removal.
Fuel and utilities: If the cooker is live on gas or oil, do not disconnect anything. We will send a qualified engineer. If it is electric, we will advise on isolation.
The Selling Process
Step 1. Enquiry and photos: Send your postcode, model if known, and the photos listed above. We will confirm any details we need and give an initial value range.
Step 2. Offer: Once we have confirmed condition and logistics, we give you an offer. No hidden charges. Removal cost is included within the agreed collection scope.
Step 3. Collection booking: We agree a date and time. You will know who is attending and how long it will take. We bring floor protection, blankets and lifting aids.
Step 4. Safe dismantling and removal: We carefully remove lids, doors, hotplates and ovens. Sections are wrapped and secured before loading. We tidy as we go and leave the space ready for your next steps.
Step 5. Payment: We confirm payment details ahead of time.
If plans change: If you change your mind before collection, tell us as soon as possible. We will reschedule or cancel.
Coverage Area
At John Wray Range Cookers we buy and collect Agas across Yorkshire, the North East and parts of Cumbria. This includes North Yorkshire, West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire and East Yorkshire, plus nearby postcodes in County Durham, Tyne and Wear and Northumberland where routes are practical. Rural properties, market towns and city addresses are all familiar to our team.
You are also welcome to visit our North Yorkshire showroom by appointment. We can show you reconditioned Agas, colour and finish options, and explain conversion or refurbishment if you are deciding whether to sell.
Upgrade or Trade-In Options
If you decide to move on from your Aga, don’t forget to check out our full range of Aga solutions:
- Trade-In/Swap: Want a newer model or a different size? We offer an Aga exchange option. Trade in your current cooker against one of our expertly reconditioned Aga cookers for sale. Our showroom has classic 2-oven, spacious 4-oven and even converted-electric Agas at competitive prices (see our Aga Prices page for details).
- Electric Conversion: Rather than selling, many owners convert their old Aga to electric. This replaces the combustion system with modern electric elements, giving you precision control and lower running costs while keeping that classic cast-iron look.
- Refurbishment: We can refurbish your existing Aga, cleaning, updating inner parts and restoring efficiency. Our full Aga Refurbishment process takes your cooker back to “like new” condition.
- Re-Enamelling: To refresh its appearance, consider our Aga re-enamelling services. We can refinish your Aga in a new colour, removing chips and blemishes so it looks beautifully restored.
- Servicing & Repair: Not ready to let go? Our expert technicians can service and repair your Aga to prolong its life. We handle everything from worn seals to faulty flues, check Aga Servicing and Repair for details.
By keeping these options in mind, you can make the best decision for your home and budget.

This was our second Aga we purchased from John Wray. The Aga and installation were perfect. Ben noticed an imperfection with the top which we did not notice and came back and replaced it for us. Would recommend them.

We had an Aga from John Wray in our last house, and have bought another from them now that we have moved. A great company to deal with, absolutely delighted with both the Agas that we bought from them. After sales service is also top notch. Highly recommended.

We had the innards of our oil-fired classic Aga replaced with the amazing Electrikit Advanced system. Brilliant, simple and no more oil smells in the kitchen! The service was marvellous from beginning to end: informative, efficient and quick. Stuart and Ben made short work of the conversion, were great to have around and did a thorough clean-up afterwards. We are very pleased.

Sell Your Aga FAQs
Can I sell my Aga if it is not working?

Most removals take between two and four hours depending on size and access.
What about damage to floors or walls?
We protect surfaces and handle each section with care. If you have very delicate flooring, tell us and we will bring extra protection.

Tell us about stairs and lifts. We will confirm what is possible and any extra cost for additional labour.
