Sofa disposal and collection

Sofa disposal is the part most people put off. The sofa is too big for the car, the tip wants it kept apart from everything else, and nobody wants to carry it down the stairs. We do that part for you. Email us a photo of the sofa, say which floor it is on, and we send back one fixed price for carrying it out, loading it and disposing of it. You pay when it is on the van and not before.

This page is for any sofa that does not fit neatly under another heading. A 3 seater, a 2 seater and a corner sofa each have a page of their own, and so do armchairs. If yours is a four seater, a snuggler, a chesterfield, a mismatched set or a sofa so old you are not sure what to call it, send the photo anyway. We quote from the picture, not from a category.

Disposal is the bit you cannot see, so here is what happens to it. Sofa Removal holds upper tier waste carrier licence CBDU526130 and is registered with the Environment Agency. A sofa in good condition with its fire safety label still attached is passed on for reuse where we can. Everything else goes to a licensed waste transfer station to be broken down, with the metal, timber, foam and fabric sorted out. Ask and we will tell you where yours went, and email a waste transfer note for your records.

Two people come in a van and carry the sofa out from wherever it sits, including upstairs rooms, flats and tight hallways. You do not need to get it to the kerb or even to the front door. We collect same day or next day wherever possible, and an email first thing in the morning gives you the best chance of a slot that day. If you are still weighing up the options, our guide on how to get rid of a sofa compares them.
