Estimate furniture and boxed contents

Include dense contents as well as the space they occupy.

Include the shelving or storage furniture and the contents leaving with it, counting dense boxes as part of the complete household group.

The £55 minimum covers up to 50kg; its volume allowance needs confirmation. Other bands use both limits.

Use the weight of the full load, including heavier items.

Can you clear books, clothing and an old shelving unit together?

Yes. A household collection can combine the unwanted shelving with identified boxes of books and bags of clothing. We assess the complete group for carrying, loading and the appropriate household guide. Separate belongings you intend to keep or donate yourself, so the team removes the selected contents rather than everything stored beside them.

Are Paddington recycling points suitable for every unwanted item?

No single recycling category covers an entire mixed clear-out. Westminster lists specialist W2 points for materials such as small electricals and textiles, each with its own acceptance rules. Our private collection is a separate arrangement for the agreed furniture, devices and household contents, with the item list defining what we carry and remove.

We collect the selected storage furniture, boxes and appliances in Paddington. The quotation follows the actual unwanted group, with retained books, clothing and furniture outside the carrying and loading task.

  • Books and stored contents described alongside furniture.
  • Clothing bags distinguished from possessions being kept.
  • Small appliances counted rather than hidden in mixed boxes.
  • Guide estimates based on the full household load.

Shelving and its selected contents removed together

Our collection can include the agreed shelving and the selected belongings stored around it. The quotation identifies the furniture in its present form alongside the containers of books, papers or other household contents leaving. The team carries and loads that accepted group from the described points, with retained shelves, devices and belongings clearly separate rather than included simply because they share the same storage area.

Our team can remove the accepted belongings while their shelving remains in use. The physical collection follows the selected boxes and loose contents, with the retained unit and possessions outside the load. This allows a storage clear-out to concern only the unwanted remainder rather than requiring the whole furniture group to leave.

GroupIdentify the destinationHow our collection treats it
Books leaving with furnitureCount the boxes and identify whether their contents are mainly books rather than empty packaging.We include the agreed boxes in the load description and carrying work. Dense contents contribute to weight even where the furniture is the most visible part of the clear-out.
Clothing kept for donationKeep the bags you intend to deliver yourself outside the collection group and tell the handover contact.Our team can distinguish those retained bags from unwanted contents being removed, preventing a personal donation arrangement from being confused with the physical rubbish collection.
Small plug-in appliancesName each device and list loose leads or attachments as an accessory group where appropriate.The collection enquiry identifies electrical equipment rather than treating a charger box, a toaster and a printer as an unspecified sack of ordinary household waste.
Unwanted storage unitDescribe whether the unit is empty, assembled and freestanding, and give useful dimensions for a large piece.The furniture forms its own part of the removal list. Its carrying route and size can be assessed alongside the smaller contents selected for collection.

Specialist recycling is an item-by-item decision

Westminster lists a small-electrical point at Bouverie Place and Praed Street, while its textile information lists Cleveland Terrace and Gloucester Terrace. These council categories do not turn a whole cupboard clearance into one public recycling deposit.

We carry and load the accepted equipment alongside agreed household belongings, with complete devices and accessories independently identified in the collection. Retained parts stay outside that physical group. The owner completes required information protection before releasing data-bearing equipment, and the team’s collection concerns the devices accepted for removal.

AllowancePriceRelevant to mixed storage contents
Up to 50kg£55The minimum has no defined volume cap. Identify bulky furniture in the enquiry even where the contents seem light, so the minimum-load arrangement can be confirmed.
Up to 3yd³ and 250kg£120Both limits apply to the combined group. Books, furniture and bags all count towards the described load rather than receiving separate unconfirmed allowances.
Up to 6yd³ and 500kg£180The guide must accommodate the complete volume and weight. Include contents collected from another cupboard or room when those items belong in the same enquiry.
Up to 9yd³ and 760kg£240Select the higher suitable band if either limit requires it. An apparently compact row of heavy cartons cannot be assessed by volume alone.
Up to 12yd³ and 1,000kg£305Larger loads need a quote. These household bands are load guides, not commercial tariffs or an automatic fixed price for every room in a property.
Household volume and weight guides

Collect the intended belongings, not the whole cupboard

During a move, similar cartons can have different destinations. We work to the removal list, so identify the boxes being discarded and keep packed possessions travelling elsewhere apart. A contact who knows those groups can show the team what is ready to leave.

Small electrical bankWestminster identifies Bouverie Place at Praed Street among its small-electrical locations in W2.Check the council’s current acceptance information if taking devices yourself. For our collection, name the unwanted devices and explain where they are stored with the other agreed contents.
Textile collection pointThe council’s textile location list includes Cleveland Terrace at Gloucester Terrace.A public textile category does not describe furniture, books or appliances. Keep items reserved for that personal recycling route separate from the removal group we are asked to collect.
Book reuseA book you want to retain, exchange or donate remains your choice rather than automatically joining a clearance.Decide which cartons are included, then describe their quantity and location. The team can remove the agreed books with a shelf or other furniture when that is the requested collection.
Private removalOur job collects the items described in the quotation from their agreed positions within the property.The carrying and loading arrangement is assessed for that property. We do not treat the published position of a council bank as an instruction to leave the load on a public street.

Match the guide to the combined household load

Our household estimate considers occupied volume and combined weight. Books can change the weight calculation without making a pile look much larger, while an empty storage unit may have the opposite effect. Above the minimum, both limits must fit the selected band.

A business archive or office-furniture group receives a commercial quotation for its actual materials and amount. Our assessment keeps those contents distinct from a personal household selection, even where both contain books or desks. The team carries and loads the commercial group accepted for the visit rather than applying household allowances simply from the appearance of its containers.

DescriptionWhat it tells usUseful additional detail
Six book cartonsThe contents are dense even if the boxes form a relatively small stack beside a larger item.Give the approximate box size and show the whole group. Include any additional papers or albums being removed so the weight description represents the collection actually intended.
Two clothing bagsThe bags are a defined part of the household removal, separate from packed possessions travelling elsewhere.State whether bulky bedding or other larger contents are included. The material description is more informative than relying on bags as if they were all identical units.
Accessories boxLeads, keyboards or small components are accompanying equipment rather than a count of complete appliances.List complete screens, printers and computers separately. Keeping accessories together makes the physical handover clearer without implying that every boxed item is a working device.

Frequently asked questions

Can you take the books but leave the shelf?

Yes. Identify the boxes intended for removal and keep retained books outside that group. Our collection covers the selected contents, so a shelf that remains in use need not be included.

Will a clothing bank take the whole contents of my cupboard?

A specialist textile category is different from a mixed cupboard clearance. Check the council’s acceptance list for a personal deposit; identify furniture, books and appliances separately in our collection enquiry.

Can a business archive use the household guide?

A business archive receives a commercial quotation. Describe the records, furniture and other materials as a business collection rather than assigning a household allowance to boxes because they resemble domestic belongings.

Do I need to bring every box to the entrance?

Our team carries and loads the agreed contents. Give the boxes’ locations and the route from them, including stairs or a lift, so the physical collection is arranged for the property.

Can I keep accessories from an unwanted device?

Yes. Set the retained accessories apart and list only the device and other items leaving. This keeps the handover clear where a replacement computer or appliance will reuse existing equipment.
