Furniture Removal in Dartford

Dartford is a busy town located to the South East of London. Dartford’s proximity to Central London, the Thames estuary and nearby countryside make it a popular location for individuals and businesses alike. With people moving in and out of the area on a regular basis, the need for furniture removal services in the area is high. Last year, Dartford recorded over 1 million discarded items of furniture ranging from cupboards, tables and chairs to sofas and desks. Without an efficient waste management effort to recycle and reuse these items, many of them will end up in landfills or fly-tipped.

Dartford relies on its private waste removal companies in providing furniture removals, along with council services that collect bulky items from the homes of residents. The service provided by the local authority costs around £30 for up to 10 items, however the number of large bulky items like sofas are limited to 2 per collection. You can book a time slot for this collection on the borough council website or over the phone. Unlike private furniture removal services however, the council will not be able to provide next day collections and can take up to a number of weeks to collect the furniture.

With a 42% recycling rate overall, Dartford council services send most of the waste that they collect to landfills. If you are looking for a more environmentally friendly option for furniture removal and disposal, you could look into contacting a local charity or recycle and reuse organisation. Any furniture that you are considering for donation must be in working order and labelled with the correct fire safety sticker to be accepted by charities. The furniture collection options that charities offer to residents is not as comprehensive as private waste clearance companies either, as the date and time of the collection will be at their discretion, along with whether or not they will do any of the heavy lifting for particularly large furniture items. Although it may keep your unwanted furniture away from landfill, charitable donations are usually only a good option for single pieces of furniture and not entire sets or office furniture.
