Job details
Project overview
This job concerned a medium open-plan workspace in Croydon, CR0, where the goal was to separate reusable furniture from general office waste. houseclearance.co put the request out to 8 carriers, 5 of whom bid, and the job record shows a price of £775.

Items removed and quantity
The inventory for this job covered:
- Eight desks
- Ergonomic chairs
- Filing cabinets
- A conference table
Taken together, this amounted to an estimated 6–9 cubic yards of material. Personal data storage, network hardware containing data and confidential documents are excluded pending a separate approved disposal process.
Access and logistics
Handling this job needs to account for goods lift booking and a lengthy corridor; parking permit considerations. Furniture may require safe disassembly where appropriate to work within these conditions.
How the clearance was completed
Eight desks and the rest of the inventory were handled according to the access conditions noted above – goods lift booking and a lengthy corridor; parking permit considerations. Furniture may require safe disassembly where appropriate to work within these conditions; personal data storage, network hardware containing data and confidential documents are excluded pending a separate approved disposal process.
Any reusable items are set aside for an appropriate reuse route where feasible, with the remaining waste going through authorised disposal channels.
Final cost and pricing factors
5 bids came in on this job, ranging from £775 up to £995, with the lower figure winning. The volume involved – an estimated 6–9 cubic yards of material – is a significant driver, alongside the access conditions already noted: goods lift booking and a lengthy corridor; parking permit considerations.
