Furniture disposal and collection

Furniture disposal and collection is the page for everything that does not have its own. A heavy mirror in a gilt frame, a coffee table with a glass insert, a cot that the child has outgrown, a flat-pack unit that will not survive another move, a hall stand, a nest of tables, a blanket box or a room full of odds and ends after a tenant has left. Send us a photo of whatever it is, say which floor it is on, and we reply with a fixed price for carrying it out and disposing of it.

Whole rooms and whole houses are covered too, as long as it is furniture. A furniture-only house clearance means every wardrobe, bed, table, chair, chest and cabinet in the property, priced from a set of photos as one job and carried out by two people in one or more visits. We have separate services for sofas, mattresses and appliances, so this site is for furniture only. If a single wardrobe or bed frame is the whole job, those pages explain how each one comes out.

Small items are not always simple. A large mirror is carried on edge with the glass covered, a glass coffee table is split into top and base, and a flat-pack piece that was assembled in the room is taken back to panels there, because its cam locks and glued dowels will not take the stairs. A cot is unbolted at the ends and carried as sides and a base. Our guide on how to get rid of old furniture runs through the council, charity and skip options if you want to compare.

Furniture Removal is registered with the Environment Agency as an upper tier waste carrier, licence CBDU526130. Pieces that are still sound are offered for reuse before anything else, and our guide on whether a charity will collect your furniture explains why some are refused. The rest goes to a licensed waste transfer station where wood, metal and glass are separated and recovered, and a waste transfer note is available on request.
