Haringey · N17 · Mattress and bed disposal
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Tottenham fitters · Fixed written pricesTottenham N17 is a regular stop on our Haringey round. Stadium district, Hale regeneration and long Victorian terraces on the High Road, so mattress and bed disposal here is quoted on the street the job is on — from £45, in writing, with insured fitters, every fixing torqued, and the flat-pack packaging taken away.
Overview
Mattress and bed disposal in Tottenham N17 is a fixed-price visit for renter-heavy homes in Haringey, most of them mainly Victorian. 18,113 households sit inside this N17 patch, 57% of them flats, so we quote on access near Tottenham Hotspur Stadium rather than a London average.
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
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. Match-day closures and parking bans, red routes on the High Road and lift booking at Hale Village.
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. Tottenham Hale (Victoria, Greater Anglia) is the nearest station, so a N17 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Tottenham, often with surface conduit — measured on the walk in from Tottenham Hale (Victoria, Greater Anglia) rather than assumed from a map in N17, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — with 35% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.
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.
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. |

Scope
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 Tottenham
Walk Tottenham from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium outwards and the mainly Victorian pattern is obvious: 57% of the 18,113 households in N17 live in flats, 43% in houses.
36% of households rent privately and 29% own, which is why mattress and bed disposal demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Tottenham substrates run to precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Tottenham, often with surface conduit — measured on the walk in from Tottenham Hale (Victoria, Greater Anglia) rather than assumed from a map. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — with 35% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is the mistake that costs a N17 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Tottenham knows the pattern near Tottenham Hotspur Stadium: stadium district, Hale regeneration and long Victorian terraces on the High Road. We plan the N17 visit around it. Tottenham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, match-day closures and parking bans, red routes on the High Road and lift booking at Hale Village — one reason 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. Fitters travelling in use Tottenham Hale (Victoria, Greater Anglia).

Single mattress, any type starts at £45 in Tottenham on the streets near Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with 43% of Tottenham homes being houses, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Mattress size and whether the base comes too for Tottenham (N17) addresses, then the floor it sits on. A mattress cannot be compacted in the van on this side of Haringey — and 43% of Tottenham homes being houses, with 36% of N17 homes being privately rented, 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 the Tottenham rounds, with this being a short walk from Tottenham Hale (Victoria, Greater Anglia). We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Tottenham most weeks on N17 jobs, with a median age of 33 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 for Tottenham (N17) addresses, with 18,113 households on this patch.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in across N17. With 57% of Tottenham homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on this side of Haringey, with this being a short walk from Tottenham Hale (Victoria, Greater Anglia) — and 18,113 households on this patch, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
All three. With 36% of Tottenham privately rented and 29% owner-occupied, roughly half the N17 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on this side of Haringey — and a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood, with 36% of N17 homes being privately rented.
Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is the marker we route to across N17, with 29% one-person households here — and this being London Borough of Haringey territory, and match-day closures and parking bans, red routes on the High Road and lift booking at Hale Village. A N17 slot added to an existing Haringey round usually lands the same week rather than the next on the Tottenham rounds, with Haringey parking rules in play.
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 on the Tottenham rounds — and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium a few streets away, with 29% one-person households here. Tottenham sits close to Tottenham Hale (Victoria, Greater Anglia) across N17, with 18,113 households on this patch, so we can usually add a N17 job to an existing Haringey round at short notice.
