• How much is furniture removal in Gloucester

  Before committing to furniture collection, it's useful to know how much you'll be paying. With LoveJunk, you can post a free, no obligation listing and receive quotes upfront for how much collectors would like to charge to remove your items. The exact cost of removal depends on the type of furniture, its condition and how urgently you want it removed. Big and heavy items tend to cost more than smaller, lighter items. Some items might be picked up for free if they're in genuinely good condition with no signs of wear and tear. If you want a really fast pickup or out of hours, this may cost a bit more.

• Getting the best collection price

  Here are some tips for getting the best quotes from collectors, and the good news is that they're very easy! First, make sure your listing is as attractive as possible. This means good photos (maybe a short video), a clear description and an appealing title: 'Lovely almost new Sofa' sounds a lot nicer than 'old, unwanted sofa'. Second, make your items as accessible as possible. Collectors prefer items that can be loaded quickly and easily. Lastly, (where possible) list your item between Monday-Friday and choose 'Anytime' for your collection time. This helps removal teams fit your job into their schedule more easily and they are most active during the week.

• How to increase likelihood of reuse

  Here are some tips to maximise the chance of your item being reused. Provide several photos of your item from different angles with clear lighting. Include its dimensions in your description and details of any wear and tear, stains or other imperfections that a potential new owner would want to know. You don't want a reuser to change their mind at collection because of something that wasn’t fully disclosed in the listing! Lastly, adding the story behind your reason for disposal can really add credibility and make your listing more appealing. For example, are you moving abroad or just had a baby, so no longer have space? Let people know!

• Do I need a fire label?

  A fire retardant label is only required with upholstered furniture if you wish to donate it to a charity. This is because the law prevents charities from reselling upholstered furniture without a fire label attached. However, there is no requirement for furniture to have a fire label if you give it directly to another individual.
