How it works
How furniture disposal works in Eltham
Five steps, the same on every SE9 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In SE9, Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings — and with 28% one-person households in Eltham, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Send a photo
One photo of the item and your postcode is normally enough for a fixed price.
Step 2
Book the slot
Timed to your delivery window so the old piece leaves before the new one arrives.
Step 3
Protect the route
Hallway and lift lobby sheeted; concierge and loading bay booked where the block requires it.
Step 4
Dismantle and carry
Taken apart in the room if it will not clear the door, then carried out by two crew.
Step 5
Reuse, recycle, receipt
Usable furniture to a reuse partner, the rest separated, transfer note handed over.
Why choose us
Why Eltham customers book us
What follows is specific to Eltham: its walls, its access and the paperwork Greenwich agents ask for.
Eltham walls, not generic walls
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick, the pattern behind 13,732 households inside the SE9 neighbourhood in SE9, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Eltham stock goes, a median age of 40 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Insured and documented
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.
Crew sized to the job
Two crew and a Luton van; three where a wardrobe or corner sofa has to come down a shared stairwell. Driveway parking on most streets; the high street has timed loading only.
Fixed prices
Furniture disposal prices in Eltham
Fixed prices for SE9 and the rest of Greenwich. Item count, the floor it is on and whether it must be dismantled set the price — not the weight.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single item (armchair, chest of drawers, table) | £45 | 20–40 min | Priced per item because most London calls are one piece being replaced on a delivery day, not a whole room. |
| Two- or three-seat sofa | £75 | 30–60 min | Two 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 | £65 | 30 min | Mattresses are shredded at a dedicated facility rather than tipped, and that gate fee is charged per unit. |
| Bedroom or living-room set (quarter load) | £120 | 1–2 hrs | Wardrobe, bed frame and drawers together, dismantled on site where the stairwell will not take them whole. |
| Full flat refurnish clear-out (half load) | £210 | 2–3 hrs | Old furniture out ahead of a delivery slot, timed around the building's booked lift or loading bay. |

Scope
What's included in Eltham
The same scope across SE9, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In Eltham: two crew who carry and load, including stairs and walk-ups, at no stairs surcharge, timed against the walk in from Eltham (Southeastern)
- On SE9 jobs: dismantling wardrobes, bed frames and tables in the room where access requires it, agreed on the doorstep in Eltham before anything is unpacked
- Standard on Greenwich bookings: reusable furniture offered to London reuse partners before anything is tipped, allowing for the 15% of SE9 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Waste transfer note issued in your name on the day, noted on the Eltham job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- In Eltham: floors and hallway protected, and the space swept before we leave, the way it is done on Eltham jobs
Not included
- Fly-tipped items on land you do not own or control, which we refer on to the right trade in Eltham
- Asbestos-backed panels, paint, solvents and gas bottles, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE9
- Piano and safe removal, which needs specialist lifting equipment, outside the fixed price on Eltham bookings
- Storage — we collect for disposal or reuse, not for holding, and we will say so before the SE9 visit rather than on the day

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 →

Eltham SE9 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Eltham — the numbers that actually change a furniture disposal quote.
In Eltham (SE9) the split is 27% flats to 73% houses over 13,732 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
Because 15% of Eltham is privately rented and 21% socially rented, a lot of SE9 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick, the pattern behind 13,732 households inside the SE9 neighbourhood behind the plaster in SE9. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Eltham stock goes, a median age of 40 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is the fault we are called back to undo.
Eltham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — the medieval palace, Art Deco Eltham Palace and streets of 1930s semis — which is why a SE9 quote is not a Greenwich average.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: driveway parking on most streets; the high street has timed loading only. Eltham (Southeastern) is the nearest station, and two crew and a Luton van; three where a wardrobe or corner sofa has to come down a shared stairwell.

Common questions
Furniture disposal in Eltham SE9 — your questions.
How much does furniture disposal cost in Eltham SE9?
Single item (armchair, chest of drawers, table) starts at £45 in Eltham on the Eltham rounds — and 73% of Eltham homes being houses, with 28% one-person households here, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Item count, the floor it is on and whether it must be dismantled set the price — not the weight on SE9 jobs, with Greenwich parking rules in play.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Eltham SE9?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on the Eltham rounds, with 15% of SE9 homes being privately rented. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Eltham most weeks across SE9, with Eltham Palace a few streets away.
How long does flat-pack assembly take in Eltham?
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on the streets near Eltham Palace, with this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Eltham doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in in this 27% flats neighbourhood. With 27% of Eltham homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on this side of Greenwich — and a median age of 40 in this neighbourhood, with Greenwich parking rules in play, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
How quickly can you reach Eltham from your Greenwich round?
Eltham Palace is the marker we route to around Eltham (Southeastern), with 27% of homes here being flats, and driveway parking on most streets; the high street has timed loading only. A SE9 slot added to an existing Greenwich round usually lands the same week rather than the next in Eltham, with this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory.
Is same-day or evening furniture disposal available in Greenwich?
Same-week slots across every borough, with next-day cover common on single items and mattresses on this side of Greenwich. Eltham sits close to Eltham (Southeastern), with 15% of SE9 homes being privately rented, so we can usually add a SE9 job to an existing Greenwich round at short notice across SE9.
Do you handle difficult access in Eltham?
Driveway parking on most streets; the high street has timed loading only in this 27% flats neighbourhood. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in Royal Borough of Greenwich it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards around Eltham (Southeastern) — and a median age of 40 in this neighbourhood, with 73% of Eltham homes being houses.
