Overview

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
Two crew and a Luton van; three where a wardrobe or corner sofa has to come down a shared stairwell. Estate management requires move-in slots, lift protection and permits for every vehicle.
Same-week slots across every borough, with next-day cover common on single items and mattresses. Stratford International (DLR, Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a E20 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — a median age of 29 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here in E20, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — and with 29% one-person households in East Village, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
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.
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.

Expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — a median age of 29 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here behind the plaster in E20.
