Call-out fee: £49 — covers our team travelling to you. Item prices are on top.
Getting rid of an old sofa in Ferndown shouldn't mean wrestling it down the stairs and hiring a van. With 1970s–1990s detached houses on estates common across the area — from West Moors, Longham and Tricketts Cross — narrow hallways and tight doorways are par for the course. We collect sofas of any size from your ground floor, load them onto our van, and take them away. Suburban family town with many post-war estates. Popular with families upgrading from Bournemouth. West Moors has an older demographic. That means we see everything from rental turnovers to family home upgrades. Reusable sofas go to local charities. Everything else is recycled responsibly — Ferndown and West Moors generate a high volume of garden waste jobs due to the large gardens typical of 1970s housing estates.
While the van's there: add a mattress (£40), bed frame (£35), or bags of rubbish (£12/bag)

Your sofa + call-out = £114 total. A half load is £179 — just £65 more to clear the whole room.

Wimborne Recycling Centre is 3.5 miles from central Ferndown. You can take a sofa there, but you'll need a van or trailer — and that means applying for a free permit at least 5 working days in advance. Saturday mornings are the busiest time, so expect queues. Proof of Dorset address required. Most people find it easier to book a TipRun collection — we pick up from your door and save you the trip.
Wide estate roads with good van access. Most properties have front driveways or garages. West Moors has some older bungalow rows with tighter access. For sofa removal specifically, please make sure we can get the sofa through your front door or have it outside ready. If the sofa came in through the door, it'll come out the same way. Residential estates with driveways. Free on-street parking throughout. No permit zones.
“Quick, friendly, and affordable. Mattress and bed frame gone. They even swept up after.”
