Furniture Removal in Enfield

The busy North London borough of Enfield is home to many residential and commercial buildings. When individuals and companies move to Enfield for its proximity to London, they tend to refurbish their properties and replace the existing furniture. For this reason, furniture removals in Enfield are a popular service and one that, when utilised correctly, can help protect the environment and reduce landfill rates. Last year, over 1 million pieces of furniture were discarded in Enfield, items like cupboards, desks, chairs and sofas were removed from properties by a variety of local furniture removal services. These services consist of private waste removal firms operating in the area and the borough council’s own collection service.

Enfield borough council run fairly regular bulky item collections that can be booked for the purposes of furniture removal either from their website or over the phone. This service will cost residents £40 for the removal of a single item like a chair or cupboard and £62 for up to 6 of these items. The council’s collection service will only take items from outside the homes of residents and are unable to do any of the manual labour towards moving these bulky items to the agreed collection point. Unlike many of the London boroughs, Enfield does offer next day collection in certain cases and for the additional fee of £10. Council operated bulky item collection services operate from Monday to Friday but occasionally the service is delayed due to high demand.

Enfield borough council’s overall recycling rate was at 40% last year, meaning that most of the waste that they collect goes to landfill sites. If you are looking for a more environmentally friendly option for your furniture removal, you could look into a private waste removal company or donate your unwanted furniture to charity. There are many charities in Enfield that accept furniture donations, although any donated furniture must be in suitable working condition, with a correct fire label in order to be accepted. Charity run collections aren’t nearly as flexible as private waste removal services, and most organisations will only accept a single piece of furniture, making this unsuitable for residents or businesses planning a big furniture clearance.
