Per-item pricing

£75 + VAT call-out per visit, plus per-item rate

Every visit carries a £75 + VAT call-out fee (one per job, regardless of item count) plus the per-item rate below. Bundle items in one visit to spread the call-out — that's where this service pays off. Minimum visit: £100 + VAT (£75 call-out + £25 smallest item). Five chairs = £75 + 5×£25 = £200 + VAT. All ex VAT. Final price quoted on inspection. POPs items (upholstered furniture) require licensed POPs disposal — included in the per-item rate.

Pricing logic

Why we price per-item, not by the load

Sofas, mattresses, fridges and cookers all carry per-item disposal costs at the transfer station — POPs licensing for upholstery, WEEE for white goods, F-Gas for fridges. A flat load price can't absorb those reliably. Honest model: £75 + VAT call-out + per-item rate. Bundle items in one visit and the call-out cost per item drops fast.

Single item

From £100 + VAT

£75 call-out + £25 smallest item (e.g. office chair, filing cabinet). One item, one visit. Same-day if booked before noon.

Mixed 5-item bundle

£335 + VAT

£75 call-out + sofa £100 + mattress £40 + fridge £45 + 2× chair £25 = £335. Per item: ~£67. This is the sweet spot.

Hotel refurb (20+ items)

Bespoke quote

Volume jobs with 20+ specialist items (mattresses, sofas, fridges) quoted on inspection. Per-item rate stays; total drops as volume rises across multiple visits.

Why us vs alternatives

Why retail and hospitality operators trust us

01

Licensed Waste Carrier

Required for commercial bulky removal under the Environmental Protection Act 1990. Many ad-hoc clearance firms aren't — exposes your business to fly-tipping liability if waste is improperly disposed of.

02

POPs handling for upholstered furniture

Persistent Organic Pollutants legislation (Dec 2022) requires specialist disposal for sofas, armchairs, soft chairs. We route them via our POPs-licensed disposal partner — no specialist surcharge for standard volumes.

03

Faster than skip hire

Skip permit takes 5-7 days in W1/EC. We arrive same-day with a kerbside cage van. No road licence, no overnight risk.

04

WTN with every job

Same-day Waste Transfer Note in your inbox. Required for landlord deposit returns, lease handbacks, and commercial premises compliance.

FAQ

Common questions about commercial bulky removal

Do you handle POPs furniture (sofas, armchairs)?
Yes. Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) regulations from Dec 2022 require specialist disposal of upholstered furniture. We route them via our POPs-licensed disposal partner. No specialist surcharge for standard volumes — included in the per-item or load-based rate. If a job is heavily POPs-weighted (10+ sofas in one go) we flag any added disposal cost up front.
Can you do same-day bulky waste collection in London?
Yes — same-day if booked before noon for sites in central and West London. Other postcodes typically next-day. Out-of-hours / weekend collection +£100 + VAT. If the slot isn't there, we tell you straight rather than promising and missing.
Why per-item rather than a flat load price?
Because the items we collect here — sofas, mattresses, fridges, cookers, upholstered chairs — all carry per-item disposal costs at the transfer station. POPs licensing for upholstery, WEEE for white goods, F-Gas regulation for fridges. A flat load price can't cover those reliably. The honest model is £75 call-out + per-item rate. Bundle 5+ items in one visit and the per-item economics work fast — example: sofa + mattress + fridge + 2 chairs = £335 all-in, ~£67/item.
Do you collect commercial fridges and cookers?
Yes — commercial fridges, freezers, cookers, ovens are routed via WEEE-licensed disposal. F-Gas regulations apply to fridges with refrigerant; we handle the compliant degas and certification. Per-item rate £45 for a fridge/freezer, £75 for a cooker/oven, plus the £75 call-out.
Will you load the items for us?
Yes. If items are already at street level (kerb, loading bay), the per-item rate covers collection. If the driver needs to fetch items from inside the building (upstairs, basement, rooms), add £40 + VAT for driver-loading per visit (1 person). For heavy items needing 2-person lifts, or larger jobs that would benefit from a 2nd loader, call 0207 101 4003 for a bespoke quote.
Do you provide a Waste Transfer Note?
Yes, same-day by email. Required for landlord deposit return, lease handback, and commercial premises compliance under EPA 1990. Includes disposal partner type, waste classification, weight, and POPs/WEEE routing evidence.
Can you handle film and TV set strikes?
Yes — we work with multiple London production companies. Same-day strike, often out-of-hours (after wrap). We can handle props, set-build, costume, soft furnishings under one ticket. WTN issued for production accounting; POPs and WEEE routes built in.
What if I just have one item?
Single-item collection from £100 + VAT (£75 call-out + £25 cheapest item). Per-visit price for one sofa works out around £175, one mattress around £115, one commercial fridge around £120. Bundling items into one visit spreads the call-out across the job — that's where the per-item rates pay off. Usually next-day for single-item bookings.
How much does single sofa removal cost in London (commercial)?
From £175 + VAT for a single sofa, all-in (£75 call-out + £100 per-item POPs rate). Same-day if booked before noon in central London. POPs-licensed disposal included — this is non-negotiable for upholstered furniture under the Dec 2022 regulations. Adding any other items on the same visit only adds the per-item rate, not another call-out.
What's the law on commercial mattress disposal?
Commercial mattresses must be disposed via a licensed waste carrier with a Waste Transfer Note — no exceptions. Recyclable components (springs, foam, fabric) are separated where the disposal route allows. Per-item rate £40 + £75 call-out for a single mattress. Hotel refurbs and care-home renewals are routinely 20+ mattresses in one go; quote on inspection.
How does the £75 call-out work?
One fixed call-out fee per visit (£75 + VAT), plus the per-item rate for each item collected. The call-out covers driver time, fuel and vehicle. Single-item bookings run £100–£175 (call-out + cheapest item). Bundle 5+ items in one visit and you only pay one call-out — the per-item economics improve fast. No surprise add-ons; final price quoted on inspection or from photos.
Can you handle hotel refurb — 50+ mattresses or sofas in one go?
Yes — hotel refurbs are a hospitality sweet spot. Per-item rates stay (mattresses £40, sofas £100, fridges £45, etc.); we quote the total on inspection. Multiple visits scheduled across the refurb programme, POPs-licensed disposal route, daily WTN, per-project ESG report. Coordinate with the refurb GC or hotel ops director directly. Quote turnaround usually within 24h for hotel-scale jobs.
Shop fitouts — can you clear old fixtures and retail units?
Yes — retail fitouts are one of our core jobs. Display units, shop fittings, counters, signage, fridges, mannequins, racking, shop-floor furniture. Per-item rate for each — large refits typically spread the £75 call-out across 20–40 items so the per-item economics work fine. Same-day for central London concept stores. We routinely turn round a unit between tenants in a single day.
What about hazardous items (paint, chemicals, batteries)?
Out of scope. Paint, chemicals, fuels, lithium-ion batteries, aerosols, asbestos — not in our service. Tell us at enquiry and we'll point you to a chemicals-waste specialist. We can clear everything around them on the same visit, leaving you with just the hazardous items to dispose of separately.
Do you take office furniture as well as bulky items?
Yes. Office desks, chairs, filing cabinets, conference tables, all under the same booking. If it's primarily office contents, our Office Clearance service may be a better fit (load-based pricing, no per-item call-out). If it's a few bulky office items mixed with a sofa or fridge, this page is the right place.
Can I get a price over WhatsApp without a site visit?
Yes. Send photos and a rough count to 0207 101 4003 on WhatsApp. Quote back within 5 minutes for <5 items, within an hour for larger jobs. Site visit only needed for complex access (basement strip-out, lift restrictions, restricted-hours sites). Most retail and hospitality jobs are quoted from photos alone.
Do you offer mattress and bed-frame collection together?
Yes — most hotel and HMO refurbs bundle mattresses with bed frames, headboards, base units. Per-item rate covers each. Mattress £40, base unit £40, headboard typically free if collected together. Plus the £75 call-out per visit. Bundle them in one job to spread the call-out across all items.
When should I book bulky waste vs Wait & Load?
Bulky waste (this page) is for specialist items needing per-item disposal — sofas, armchairs, mattresses, fridges, cookers, upholstered chairs. POPs / WEEE / F-Gas routing is built into each per-item rate. Wait & Load Cage is the right service for mixed general waste — timber, packaging, non-upholstered furniture, fit-out strip-outs — where the flat half/full-load price works because no per-item transfer-station surcharges apply. Not sure which? Send photos to WhatsApp 0207 101 4003 and we'll route you to the cheaper service honestly.
