• How much is furniture removal in Gravesend

  Before committing to furniture collection, it's useful to know how much you'll be paying. With LoveJunk, you can post a free, no obligation listing and receive quotes upfront for how much collectors would like to charge to remove your items. The exact cost of removal depends on the type of furniture, its condition and how urgently you want it removed. Big and heavy items tend to cost more than smaller, lighter items. Some items might be picked up for free if they're in genuinely good condition with no signs of wear and tear. If you want a really fast pickup or out of hours, this may cost a bit more.

• How to get the best collection price

  If you have the flexibility, list your furniture on a weekday and choose ‘Anytime’ as your collection date. Weekdays are when most collectors in Gravesend tend to be active and ‘anytime’ offers them the most opportunity to fit your collection into their routes. Make sure your listing has good photos (ideally with a short video), a clear description and as attractive a title as possible. For example, ‘Old sofa’ is unlikely to get as much interest as ‘Lovely, almost new sofa’. Lastly, make the junk as easily accessible as you can. Removal teams much prefer things that can be loaded quickly.

• Improve chances of reuse

  A new home is the ideal destination for your furniture if it is still in great shape. Here are some tips to improve the chances of your furniture being reused. First, make your listing as appealing, descriptive and accurate as possible. This means taking plenty of pictures from different angles in good lighting, and writing a clear description with detailed dimensions and any imperfections. You don't want a potential new owner to change their mind about taking your sofa because they didn't know about the big stain on the cushion! Another tip is to provide a bit of background: why are you getting rid of it? These extra details make your listing more trustworthy and appealing.

• Do I need a fire label?

  A fire retardant label is only required with upholstered furniture if you wish to donate it to a charity. This is because the law prevents charities from reselling upholstered furniture without a fire label attached. However, there is no requirement for furniture to have a fire label if you give it directly to another individual.
