• How much does Orpington furniture removal cost?

  Cost of furniture removal in Orpington depends on the type of furniture, its condition, and when you want it collected. Heavier, larger items tend to be more expensive to have removed. Whereas lighter, smaller items tend to be cheaper and anything that is in great condition with no stains or wear and tear may well be collected for free. All that said, the best way to find out how much it will cost to have your furniture removed is to create a listing and see what offers you receive. There is no charge or commitment to create a listing and receive quotes. So, if you just want to check prices, then cancel…no problem.

• 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 Orpington 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.

• How to increase likelihood of reuse

  Here are some tips to maximise the chance of your item being reused. Provide several photos of your item from different angles with clear lighting. Include its dimensions in your description and details of any wear and tear, stains or other imperfections that a potential new owner would want to know. You don't want a reuser to change their mind at collection because of something that wasn’t fully disclosed in the listing! Lastly, adding the story behind your reason for disposal can really add credibility and make your listing more appealing. For example, are you moving abroad or just had a baby, so no longer have space? Let people know!

• Is a fire label needed?

  When you donate upholstered furniture to charity, you need a fire label. For health and safety reasons, charities are not legally allowed to resell upholstered furniture without a fire retardant label. However, you do not need a fire label when you as an individual give furniture directly to another individual. So not to worry if there isn't one to be found!
