How it works
Step 1
One photo of the item and your postcode is normally enough for a fixed price.
Step 2
Timed to your delivery window so the old piece leaves before the new one arrives.
Step 3
Hallway and lift lobby sheeted; concierge and loading bay booked where the block requires it.
Step 4
Taken apart in the room if it will not clear the door, then carried out by two crew.
Step 5
Usable furniture to a reuse partner, the rest separated, transfer note handed over.
Why choose us
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in E16, often with surface conduit — and with 38% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in E16, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in E16, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — the pattern behind 14,847 households inside the E16 neighbourhood.
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.
Two crew and a Luton van; three where a wardrobe or corner sofa has to come down a shared stairwell. A13 and Lower Lea Crossing red routes; new blocks require booked docks and lifts.
Same-week slots across every borough, with next-day cover common on single items and mattresses. Canning Town (Jubilee, DLR) is the nearest station, so a E16 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Fixed prices
| 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
Thankyou to Nicole and Marius and colleagues for a superb clean of our family home.
