Will the Plymouth City Council remove my sofa?
Using their bulky waste collection service, you can always get a quote from Plymouth City Council to see if they’re willing to take away your sofa, which usually costs around £50. It’s worth visiting their offers before committing, as sometimes private waste removal services are more reliable and cost-effective. The choice is up to you in the end!
Disposal Money Saving Tips:
We have a couple of tips when it comes to disposing of a settee:
– Sell it online – there are many sites where you can sell second-hand furniture.
If your settee is in a reasonable condition, you could sell it.
Many that have just moved out or starting a family could be looking to save a bit of money. Your old used sofa could be a lifesaver.
If your couch still has life, let someone else use it before it ends up at the landfill.
If you think this is an option, check out E-Bay, Gumtree, Preloved, Shpock and Facebook.
– Freebie it online – there are many sites where you can list things for free.
- If the condition of your sofa isn’t that great, all is not lost.
- Another’s trash can still be someone else’s treasure.
- You may even find that paying some of the transport fees to give it away will save you money in the long run.
- If you think this is an option, check out the freebie categories on Freecycle, Upcycle, Preloved, Gumtree and Facebook.
Donate it to a local charity shop – they will be able to sell it on, and the money raised will go to a good cause.
- You can only do this if the sofa is in a reasonable condition; the charity will need to be able to sell it. Contrary to popular belief, charities don’t just take any old rubbish.
- The fire label must also be on your sofa. A charity cannot sell it if this isn’t there. So, even if the sofa is in excellent shape, charities cannot accept it.
- We have some great local charities in Plymouth that will come and collect a settee for free, saving you the removal costs, providing it’s in good condition and has that fire label I mentioned.
- For Plymouth-based charities, please check St Luke’s Hospice or the British Heart Foundation.
Take it to your local recycling centre – if you can get it there.
- Before heading to a recycling centre in Plymouth in a van, ensure that they will allow van access; this varies by location. You may find that they only allow car access.
- In most cases, they will only allow cars; the good news is that many modern sofas may be disassembled with simple tools, allowing you to transport it to a recycling facility in smaller pieces.
- DO NOT use power tools to dismantle your sofa; this can be extremely dangerous due to hidden metal components and wires, resulting in a trip to Derriford Hospital.
If you’d rather avoid the hassle of all of the above and want to know more about our sofa disposal services, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. We would be more than happy to help.
