Fixed prices

Furniture disposal prices in Croydon

Fixed prices for Croydon, agreed before the crew is booked. Item count, the floor it is on and whether it must be dismantled set the price — not the weight. Where ULEZ, controlled parking zones and stair access apply in Croydon, they are itemised rather than rolled into an hourly rate.
Furniture disposal price guide for Croydon
JobFromTypical timeWhat sets the price
Single item (armchair, chest of drawers, table)£4520–40 minPriced per item because most London calls are one piece being replaced on a delivery day, not a whole room.
Two- or three-seat sofa£7530–60 minTwo crew as standard: London sofas usually come out of a first-floor flat or need the feet off before the front door.
Mattress and divan base£6530 minMattresses are shredded at a dedicated facility rather than tipped, and that gate fee is charged per unit.
Bedroom or living-room set (quarter load)£1201–2 hrsWardrobe, bed frame and drawers together, dismantled on site where the stairwell will not take them whole.
Full flat refurnish clear-out (half load)£2102–3 hrsOld furniture out ahead of a delivery slot, timed around the building's booked lift or loading bay.

Domestic prices are the total you pay; landlord, agent and office invoices are plus VAT. Dismantling in the room is included — we do not charge extra because a wardrobe will not fit through the door assembled.

Working in Croydon

Why Croydon is not a generic London job

Croydon's Whitgift and Boxpark and the Crystal Palace transmitter is the landmark; the working detail below is what actually changes the price and the method in Croydon.

The housing stock

What our crews walk into in Croydon is 1930s semis, victorian terraces in thornton heath, tower blocks and converted office buildings in the centre, and the mix changes street by street — Addiscombe (CR0), Coulsdon (CR5) and Croydon (CR0) each behave differently on the day.

Access, parking and permits

London Borough of Croydon sets the constraint: tram-track loading limits in the centre, steep purley hills and wide suburban roads with driveways elsewhere. Locally that means tram-line crossings, narrow terraced streets and permit bays near the tram stops and steep downland roads, easy driveway parking and a narrow high street. Croydon sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.

London Borough of Croydon rules

London Borough of Croydon runs bulky-waste collections and reuse and recycling centres, and they are a genuine option in Croydon for one or two items. Where they stop being useful is size limits, same-week deadlines and anything lifted out of a communal area — those are the loads we take, under our waste carrier licence and with a transfer note issued on the day.

How the borough got this way

Croydon took its present shape because an archbishop's manor and market town that became a 1960s office boom city with the croydon corporation act towers.

Scope

What's included in Croydon

The same scope everywhere in the borough, whether the job is in Addiscombe or Thornton Heath.

Included in the price

  • Two crew who carry and load, including stairs and walk-ups, at no stairs surcharge
  • Dismantling wardrobes, bed frames and tables in the room where access requires it
  • Reusable furniture offered to London reuse partners before anything is tipped
  • Waste transfer note issued in your name on the day
  • Floors and hallway protected, and the space swept before we leave

Not included

  • Fly-tipped items on land you do not own or control
  • Asbestos-backed panels, paint, solvents and gas bottles
  • Piano and safe removal, which needs specialist lifting equipment
  • Storage — we collect for disposal or reuse, not for holding

Method

How a Croydon booking runs

Five steps, the same on every Croydon job, so you know what happens before you commit.
  1. Step 1

    Send a photo

    One photo of the item and your postcode is normally enough for a fixed price.

  2. Step 2

    Book the slot

    Timed to your delivery window so the old piece leaves before the new one arrives.

  3. Step 3

    Protect the route

    Hallway and lift lobby sheeted; concierge and loading bay booked where the block requires it.

  4. Step 4

    Dismantle and carry

    Taken apart in the room if it will not clear the door, then carried out by two crew.

  5. Step 5

    Reuse, recycle, receipt

    Usable furniture to a reuse partner, the rest separated, transfer note handed over.

Coverage

Every area we cover in Croydon

10 named areas across CR0, CR2, CR5, CR7, CR8, SE19, SE25 and SW16. Each has its own page with local access notes.
Local questions

Furniture disposal in Croydon — your questions

  • How much does a furniture collection cost in Croydon?

    Single item (armchair, chest of drawers, table) starts at £45 in Croydon, and the ladder runs up to £210 for the largest job on the table above. Item count, the floor it is on and whether it must be dismantled set the price — not the weight. The borough is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on — only ULEZ, which our vans are compliant with.

  • Which Croydon postcodes do you cover?

    We cover the whole borough: CR0, CR2, CR5, CR7, CR8, SE19, SE25 and SW16. On the ground that includes Addiscombe, Coulsdon, Croydon, Crystal Palace, Kenley and Purley.

  • How quickly can you get to Croydon?

    Same-week slots across every borough, with next-day cover common on single items and mattresses. South London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.

  • What about parking and permits in Croydon?

    Tram-track loading limits in the centre, steep Purley hills and wide suburban roads with driveways elsewhere. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Croydon and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.

  • Do you work in Croydon flats and blocks with no lift?

    Yes. 1930s semis, Victorian terraces in Thornton Heath, tower blocks and converted office buildings in the centre is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.

  • Are you insured and licensed for work in Croydon?

    Registered waste carrier. Upholstered items are separated for the POPs waste stream, mattresses are shredded at a licensed facility, and every collection leaves with a transfer note in your name. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Croydon tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.

  • Who turns up, and with what?

    Two crew and a Luton van; three where a wardrobe or corner sofa has to come down a shared stairwell. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Croydon postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.

  • What is not included?

    Fly-tipped items on land you do not own or control, Asbestos-backed panels, paint, solvents and gas bottles and Piano and safe removal, which needs specialist lifting equipment. If something on that list turns up in Croydon, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

Thankyou to Nicole and Marius and colleagues for a superb clean of our family home. It was done under difficult circumstances with removal people still emptying the property of furniture and boxes around them as we were moving out after nearly 40 years.

I booked the services for putting together some new bedroom furniture. This was agreed for 3 pm. I got a call at 3pm to say they were going to be late and be there at 5, they arrived at 5:30. The workmanship and the guys who fitted it was excellent and they were very friendly… Read in full →
