### Clearing Out The Old Stuff
You're moving out and don't want to take the **old curtain poles** with you - they're dated, damaged, or just not your style. The buyers don't want them either. Now you need them gone properly, walls made good, and one less thing cluttering up the handover.
Professional removal and disposal means they're taken away, walls are patched up, and you're not stuck trying to rehome them or driving to the tip.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** If you're selling up, removing old tatty curtain poles can make rooms look fresher and larger. Shows the space better for buyers.

Good to Know
> 🏠 **Full clearance service?** I can combine curtain pole removal with blind removal, old shelving takedown, picture hooks - all the bits and pieces that need clearing before handover. **Some keep, some go?** Happy to remove just the ones you don't want and leave others in place. You direct, I do the work. **Recycling:** Metal poles get taken for scrap recycling where possible. Better than landfill and I can usually get a few quid for the metal (helps offset disposal costs). **Rental deposit:** Removing old curtain poles and making good the walls properly can help with deposit returns. Shows you've left the place properly, not just walked away. **Old Exeter properties:** Those thick walls sometimes mean very long screws through brackets. Takes care to extract them without damaging plaster, but I'm used to it.
Frequently Asked Questions about Curtain pole removal and disposal in Ottery St Mary
Why would I want poles removed rather than just taken down?
If you're not taking them to your new place (maybe they're old, damaged, or wrong style), I'll remove them completely and take them away. Saves you a trip to the tip or trying to give them away on Facebook Marketplace.
Can you dispose of any type of curtain pole?
Yes - wooden, metal, tracked, whatever you've got. I'll take them for recycling where possible (metal poles), or dispose of them responsibly.
Do you still fill the holes if I'm not keeping the poles?
Absolutely - that's part of the service. All bracket holes get filled flush whether you're keeping the poles or I'm taking them away. Walls left tidy for handover.
What if the buyers want to keep some poles but not others?
No problem - you tell me which ones to leave up and which to remove. I'll sort the ones coming down, fill those holes, leave the others in place.
Can you remove very old poles that are stuck or painted over?
Yes - those ones that have been up for decades, painted over multiple times, and the brackets are seized solid. Takes a bit more care to get them off without damaging plaster, but it's doable.
