About this service
What sofa removal bristol actually looks like.
Sofa removal is always the same timing problem: the new one’s arriving Thursday, and the old one can’t be on the lawn when it does. Pricing is per item: £95 for a standard 2- or 3-seater sofa, £84 for an armchair. Corner units, chaise sofas and reclining 3-piece suites I estimate from a photo and confirm on arrival — the price I confirm is the price you pay. No VAT, no call-out fee. I bring straps and blankets, I can take legs off to save paintwork on stair turns, and the old unit goes into the van rather than onto the pavement.
Fire labels matter if it’s going for reuse
Under UK furniture and furnishings regs, upholstered sofas need to carry a compliant fire safety label for a charity or second-hand dealer to accept them. Most sofas from the last 15 years will have one tacked under a cushion or on a leg. If yours still has it, I can try to route the sofa to a reuse destination instead of disposal. No label, and it has to go as waste.
Awkward stair corners
Half of Bristol’s housing stock is Victorian or Georgian terrace, which means a tight quarter-turn at the bottom of the stairs. Big modern corner sofas don’t always come back out the way they went in — they were either brought in through a window or assembled in place. I’ll have a look on arrival before committing to stairs. Sometimes the cleaner route really is a window and a strop, and I’ll be honest about it.

Frequently asked
Sofa Removal Bristol— common questions.
How much is sofa removal in Bristol?
£95 for a standard 2- or 3-seater sofa, £84 for an armchair. Corner units and oversized sofas I estimate from a photo and confirm on arrival.
Can I book same-day sofa collection?
Often — depends on the diary, but plenty of sofa jobs are same-day or next-day. Give me a call and I’ll check.
What if the sofa doesn’t fit down the stairs?
If it can’t come out whole, I’ll dismantle what I can. Past that, it has to come apart more aggressively — I’ll talk through options before anything’s cut.
