Bexley · DA15 · Mattress and bed disposal
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Sidcup fitters · Fixed written pricesWe provide mattress and bed disposal in Sidcup DA15 for houses and flats around Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park. From £45, quoted in writing before the visit, with two crew and a Luton on a standard mattress and base; the same crew dismantles bunk frames and storage divans on site before the carry Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Sidcup, mattress and bed disposal here covers supply-free fitting from £45. With 46% of Sidcup's 8,640 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in DA15 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
Single through super king, mattress only or with the base, and whether there is a lift. That is enough for a fixed price with no change on the day.
Step 2
The gate fee for a mattress is higher than ordinary bulky waste because it cannot be compacted, so this is shown as its own line rather than folded into a vague total.
Step 3
Divan bases and bunk frames come apart where they will not pass a stair turn or a communal lift door whole.
Step 4
The mattress is wrapped before it leaves the room, protecting the stairwell and keeping the load hygienic for the crew and for you.
Step 5
Taken to a site permitted to strip mattresses for scrap steel and foam recycling, with the transfer note emailed the same day.
Why choose us
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common where a new mattress delivery is already booked and the old one has to be out of the room first. Sidcup (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a DA15 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect timber stud partitions inside; locally that also means cavity brickwork outside, the pattern behind 8,640 households inside the DA15 neighbourhood in DA15, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Sidcup gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, the reality on the streets around Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park.
Registered waste carrier. Mattresses go to a permitted site that strips springs for scrap steel and foam for recycling rather than a standard landfill cell, and a waste transfer note is issued for every collection.
Two crew and a Luton on a standard mattress and base; the same crew dismantles bunk frames and storage divans on site before the carry. Driveways throughout; the high street is a red route with short bays.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single mattress, any type | £45 | 20–30 min | Mattresses do not compact, so the van still fills at the same rate as a much bulkier item — the tip charges a flat gate fee per mattress regardless of size. |
| Double or king mattress | £55 | 20–30 min | A wider mattress needs two carriers on most stairwells rather than one, which is the labour cost behind the size step. |
| Divan base or bed frame, per item | £40 | 20–30 min | Divan bases are often heavier than the mattress on top and usually need unscrewing from the headboard first. |
| Mattress and base together | £75 | 30–45 min | Priced as a pair rather than two singles, since both come off the same room in the same carry. |
| Bunk bed or divan with drawers, dismantled | £90 | 40–60 min | Bunk frames and storage divans have to be taken apart before they will fit through a standard door or down a stair turn. |
| Multiple mattress collection, 3+ units | £35/item | By volume | Discounted per unit for landlords, letting agents and student blocks clearing several rooms in one visit. |

The guys arrived prompt at 9 am . Sorry I’m rubbish at names but I remember the one guys initials were AB . He really worked hard . Both guys were very polite and were happy to pop back up the stairs to finish dusting the bedrooms surfaces that were missed . Not one moan… Read in full →
The cleaners Constantin and arrived in time and never stopped until the work was completed to the best of their ability. I would recommend a more upgraded carpet cleaner as I was hoping for a hot steam cleaner to penetrate areas or heavy foot traffic on the carpet. They never gave up until the look… Read in full →

Working in Sidcup
8,640 households sit inside the DA15 neighbourhood covering Sidcup. The build is inter-war, the tenure profile owner-occupier-led, and 46% of those homes are flats.
With 20% private renting against 68% owner-occupied, most DA15 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Sidcup substrates run to timber stud partitions inside; locally that also means cavity brickwork outside, the pattern behind 8,640 households inside the DA15 neighbourhood. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Sidcup gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, the reality on the streets around Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park is the mistake that costs a DA15 customer twice.
Sidcup 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 — a busy high street, Lamorbey Park and the Rose Bruford campus — which is why a DA15 quote is not a Bexley average.
Driveways throughout; the high street is a red route with short bays. Nearest station is Sidcup (Southeastern), and two crew and a Luton on a standard mattress and base; the same crew dismantles bunk frames and storage divans on site before the carry.

Single mattress, any type starts at £45 in Sidcup for Sidcup (DA15) addresses, with 46% of homes here being flats, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Mattress size and whether the base comes too on the streets near Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park, then the floor it sits on. A mattress cannot be compacted in the van across DA15, with a median age of 41 in this neighbourhood — and 12% social-rented stock nearby, so the tip gate fee is charged per unit rather than by volume — that is why the price step between sizes is smaller than on other bulky items.
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on this side of Bexley, with this being London Borough of Bexley territory. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Sidcup most weeks on the streets near Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park, with a median age of 41 in this neighbourhood.
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on this side of Bexley, with a median age of 41 in this neighbourhood. On Sidcup jobs we confirm it when the slot is booked, not on the day.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in in this 46% flats neighbourhood. With 46% of Sidcup homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm for Sidcup (DA15) addresses, with Bexley parking rules in play — and 35% one-person households here, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Mattresses soaked through with bodily fluid contamination requiring a biohazard route rather than standard disposal; Bed bug or pest-infested mattresses in this 46% flats neighbourhood, which need pest control treatment before collection can proceed safely; Fitting or assembling a replacement bed, with 35% one-person households here — and 8,640 households on this patch, which is booked separately as a flat-pack or bed-assembly visit; Structural bed frames fixed to the wall or floor, which need a joiner rather than a clearance crew. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Sidcup DA15 price you agree is the price you pay on Bexley bookings, with Bexley parking rules in play.
All three. With 20% of Sidcup privately rented and 68% owner-occupied, roughly half the DA15 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door across DA15 — and 46% of homes here being flats, with 20% of DA15 homes being privately rented.
Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park is the marker we route to on the streets near Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park, with 12% social-rented stock nearby, and driveways throughout; the high street is a red route with short bays. A DA15 slot added to an existing Bexley round usually lands the same week rather than the next across DA15, with 54% of Sidcup homes being houses.
