Overview
Mattress and bed disposal in Hampstead NW3, explained
This page prices mattress and bed disposal for Hampstead NW3 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 45% privately rented and 11,433 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Camden permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How mattress and bed disposal works in Hampstead
Five steps, the same on every NW3 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In NW3, Victorian and Edwardian conversion flats with original lath-and-plaster partitions — with 17% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Tell us size and floor
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
Fixed written quote
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
Dismantle the base first
Divan bases and bunk frames come apart where they will not pass a stair turn or a communal lift door whole.
Step 4
Wrap and carry
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
Weigh in and receipt
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
Why Hampstead customers book us
Four things decide whether a NW3 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Crew sized to the job
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. Steep, narrow lanes where a 3.5t Luton is the practical maximum; several streets need a shuttle from Whitestone Pond.
Booked around your day
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. Hampstead (Northern) is the nearest station, so a NW3 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Hampstead walls, not generic walls
We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, the pattern behind 11,433 households inside the NW3 neighbourhood in NW3, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster in NW3, which crumbles the key and drops the panel, and with 45% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Fixed prices
Mattress and bed disposal prices in Hampstead
Fixed prices for NW3 and the rest of Camden. Mattress size and whether the base comes too, then the floor it sits on. A mattress cannot be compacted in the van, 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.
| 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. |

Scope
What's included in Hampstead
The same scope across NW3, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In Hampstead: two crew who carry from the bedroom — nothing has to be dragged to the front door first, the way it is done on Hampstead jobs
- On NW3 jobs: bed frames and divan bases unscrewed and broken down where a stair turn or lift will not take them whole, with 84% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
- Standard on Camden bookings: mattresses wrapped for the carry so a stained or worn unit does not mark the stairwell or hallway, arranged with London Borough of Camden where the kerb needs it
- Waste transfer note issued in your name on the day, with our carrier registration number on it — including mattress and bed disposal
- In Hampstead: springs, foam and fabric separated for recycling at a site permitted to strip mattresses, timed against the walk in from Hampstead (Northern)
- On NW3 jobs: same-day and next-morning slots so a new bed delivery is never held up by the old one still being in the room, agreed on the doorstep in Hampstead before anything is unpacked
Not included
- Mattresses soaked through with bodily fluid contamination requiring a biohazard route rather than standard disposal, which we refer on to the right trade in Hampstead
- Bed bug or pest-infested mattresses, which need pest control treatment before collection can proceed safely, quoted separately if you need it arranged in NW3
- Fitting or assembling a replacement bed, which is booked separately as a flat-pack or bed-assembly visit, outside the fixed price on Hampstead bookings
- Structural bed frames fixed to the wall or floor, which need a joiner rather than a clearance crew, and we will say so before the NW3 visit rather than on the day

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 →

Hampstead NW3 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Hampstead — the numbers that actually change a mattress and bed disposal quote.
11,433 households sit inside the NW3 neighbourhood covering Hampstead. The build is Georgian and early Victorian, the tenure profile renter-heavy, and 84% of those homes are flats.
The renter-heavy mix here (39% owned, 45% privately rented) means a NW3 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, the pattern behind 11,433 households inside the NW3 neighbourhood behind the plaster in NW3. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster in NW3, which crumbles the key and drops the panel, and with 45% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the fault we are called back to undo.
Georgian hill village of narrow lanes, artists' houses and the Heath on its doorstep. That character decides the practical detail of mattress and bed disposal here far more than the borough boundary does. Hampstead sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: steep, narrow lanes where a 3.5t Luton is the practical maximum; several streets need a shuttle from Whitestone Pond. Hampstead (Northern) is the nearest station, 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.

Common questions
Mattress and bed disposal in Hampstead NW3 — your questions.
How much does mattress and bed disposal cost in Hampstead NW3?
Single mattress, any type starts at £45 in Hampstead on the streets near Hampstead Heath and Kenwood House, with this being London Borough of Camden territory, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Mattress size and whether the base comes too across NW3, then the floor it sits on. A mattress cannot be compacted in the van on the Hampstead rounds — and this being a short walk from Hampstead (Northern), with Camden parking rules in play, 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.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Hampstead NW3?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions across NW3, with 39% owner-occupation locally. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Hampstead most weeks on the streets near Hampstead Heath and Kenwood House, with this being a short walk from Hampstead (Northern).
How long does flat-pack assembly take in Hampstead?
In Hampstead, 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 Camden, with 84% of homes here being flats. That covers mattress and bed disposal prices on Hampstead jobs too.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Hampstead doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on the Hampstead rounds. With 84% of Hampstead homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm across NW3 — and Camden parking rules in play, with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
How quickly can you reach Hampstead from your Camden round?
5t Luton is the practical maximum; several streets need a shuttle from Whitestone Pond on Camden bookings. A NW3 slot added to an existing Camden round usually lands the same week rather than the next on the Hampstead rounds, with 17% social-rented stock nearby.
Is same-day or evening mattress and bed disposal available in Camden?
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 across NW3, with this being a short walk from Hampstead (Northern). Hampstead sits close to Hampstead (Northern), with 45% of NW3 homes being privately rented, so we can usually add a NW3 job to an existing Camden round at short notice on the streets near Hampstead Heath and Kenwood House.
Do you handle difficult access in Hampstead?
5t Luton is the practical maximum; several streets need a shuttle from Whitestone Pond for Hampstead (NW3) addresses. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Camden it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on the streets near Hampstead Heath and Kenwood House — and this being a short walk from Hampstead (Northern), with 17% of Hampstead homes being houses.
