### When Furniture Needs To Go
New sofa arrived and the old one needs shifting? Clearing out after a bereavement? Just sick of that wardrobe you've hated for years? Sometimes **you just want it gone**, not a week of it sitting in the hallway.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Council bulky waste collection can take weeks to book and costs about the same. This is usually quicker.

### More Than Just a Man With a Van
Getting furniture out isn't always straightforward, especially in older Newton Abbot houses:
| ✅ Done Properly | ❌ DIY Disasters | |-----------------|-----------------| | Dismantle where needed | Try to force it through | | Protect doorframes and walls | Chip paintwork all the way down | | Two-person lift for heavy items | Back injury waiting to happen | | Proper disposal at tip | Fly-tipped and you get fined |
I've done this enough times to know what'll fit where and how to move it safely.

What to Expect

Measure doorways if needed, work out if dismantling saves time. ### Step 2: Safe Removal Get it out carefully - protecting your walls, floors, and doorframes. Heavy stuff gets two-person lifted properly (I'll rope in help if needed). ### Step 3: Load & Dispose Into the van, strapped down, then straight to the tip. Sorted by material where possible for recycling.

Good to Know
> ♻️ **Recycling:** I separate wood, metal, fabric where I can at the tip. Anything salvageable goes in the right skip. Makes a difference over just landfilling everything. **Multiple items?** Much more cost-effective to do them all in one trip. If you're clearing a room or a house, let me know everything that's going and I'll quote for the lot. **Exeter's narrow streets and old houses** mean some furniture just won't come back down the stairs it went up. We'll work it out - there's always a way, even if it means through a window.
Frequently Asked Questions about Furniture disposal in Newton Abbot
What furniture can you take?
Most household furniture - sofas, beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs, mattresses, cabinets. Pretty much anything that won't fit in your car. If it's too big for the tip to accept (some commercial items), I'll let you know upfront.
Do I need to dismantle it first?
No - I'll take it as-is. If it needs dismantling to get through doors or down stairs, I'll do that. Much easier than you struggling with an allen key for an hour.
Where does the furniture go?
Recycling centre at Crannaford near Newton Abbot. Anything that can be salvaged gets separated out - wood, metal, fabric. I don't just dump everything in landfill.
How quickly can you collect it?
Often same-day if you call in the morning. Definitely within a couple of days. Depends on my schedule and whether I'm already doing a tip run.
What if it won't fit through the door?
We'll work it out. Dismantle it, remove the door, tip it on its side - there's usually a way. In 15 years I've only had to give up on one item (a hot tub that was built in the house).
