Friendly, professional and quick service! Tom and Barry were great calling me half an hour before arriving, and observed all social distancing regulations etc, and Richard was very helpful on the phone fitting me in same day. Overall very satisfied and would recommend.
GraceyAbsolutely brilliant! The two lads were quick and efficient with big smiles on their faces, despite the cold. Twenty four hours from the initial enquiry, the job was completed. That’s proper service.
GrahamThey did an excellent job and cleared my Mums flat quickly. I would recommend them to everyone and I would use them again. My mum had recently passed away so it was a difficult time but they were also understanding of the circumstances.

You can also reach our friendly team on 0161 339 7938 or WhatsApp a photo of your item to 07802 860 731 for an instant, fixed price quote. Furthermore, we cover the entire area, ensuring your old furniture is diverted from landfill and recycled wherever possible, therefore saving you the physical struggle and logistical headache of moving heavy items yourself.
Moving a large sofa is physically demanding and risks damaging your property if not handled correctly. Additionally, we offer a level of service that purely curb side collections cannot match.
Unlike the local council collection which often requires you to drag heavy furniture to the curb, a difficult task if you live in one of Chorley’s traditional red brick terraces, we come directly into your lounge, conservatory, also upstairs bedroom to collect the item.
We understand that manoeuvring a bulky corner sofa through narrow hallways or tight door frames requires skill. Our team therefore takes immense care to protect your walls, flooring, and door frames during removal.
If your new sofa is arriving today and you need the old one gone immediately, we can often arrange a same day collection. We also act as an emergency service for waste, ensuring you aren’t left with a cluttered living room.
We have the vehicles and also the manpower to handle everything from heavy electric recliners and Chesterfield sofas to large modular sectionals and sofa beds.
Many residents consider the council service first but find the limitations frustrating. So here is how we compare:
| Feature | The Rubbish Removers | Chorley Council |
|---|---|---|
| Collection Point | Any Room / Upstairs (We do the lifting) | Curbside Only (You must drag it out) |
| Speed | Same Day / 24 Hours | Booking Required (Can take weeks) |
| Heavy Lifting | 2-Man Team Included | Zero Assistance |
| Item Limits | We take Multiple Items | Strict Item Limits |
We collect all types of seating and soft furnishings, regardless of condition:
Our pricing is transparent and based on the volume your items occupy. Besides, unlike hiring a skip, where you pay for a fixed size regardless of how much you fill, with us you only pay for the space you use.

Single Item: Prices start from £80+VAT. This is itherefore deal for a standalone bulky item like a large three seater sofa or a heavy recliner. It is also often faster and more convenient than waiting for a council slot.
Quarter Van Load: Roughly 2-3 cubic yards. Perfect if you are clearing a full three-piece suite plus a coffee table or a few bags of household rubbish.
Half Van Load: Roughly 6 cubic yards. Comparable to a standard builders’ skip but without the permit fees or driveway damage.
Full Van Load: 12-14 cubic yards. Suitable for a full house clearance or also removing furniture from multiple rooms.

We are active throughout the borough every week. Here are also a few examples of how we help local residents:
We cleared a large L-shaped sofa via a “Wait & Load” service. This was also essential as the property covenants restricted skips from being placed on the driveway.
Our team removed a heavy leather suite from a terraced property near the markets. We also carefully navigated the narrow hallway to ensure no damage to the paintwork or skirting boards.
We collected two old armchairs and a sofa bed from a rural farmhouse, therefore saving the owner a difficult trip to the often congested Buckingham Way tip.
We make the process simple and stress free, also ensuring your home is left tidy.
1. Get a Quote: Give us a call on 0161 339 7938 or WhatsApp a photo of the item to 07802 860 731. We can then provide a fixed price upfront.
2. We Arrive: Our uniformed 2 man team arrives within a specific time window. We also give you a quick call when we are on the way.
3. We Remove: We carefully lift and manoeuvre the sofa out of your property, also handling any dismantling if required.
4. Recycling: You receive a Waste Transfer Note instantly. Furthermore we divert 95% of furniture from landfill.
We also provide our full collection service to Chorley town and the immediate surrounding villages and districts:
Q: Do I need to get the sofa to the ground floor? No. Our professional team collects from anywhere in the property, including upstairs bedrooms, basements, or apartments. We are happy to come inside and do the heavy lifting, ensuring you don’t risk injury or damage to your home.
Q: Do you take large or awkward items like corner sofas? Yes. Our vehicles are large enough to accommodate American-style fridges, large corner sofas, and bulky recliners. We carry tools to dismantle items if necessary to get them through doorways safely.
Q: Is your disposal legal? Absolutely. We are an Environment Agency Registered Upper Tier Waste Carrier (License CBDU409710). We provide a digital Waste Transfer Note upon completion, proving your waste has been disposed of legally at a licensed facility.
Q: Does Chorley Council collect from inside my house? No. The council bulky waste service is strictly curb side only. Therefore, this can be a major issue for residents in Chorley’s terraced properties where getting a heavy sofa out the front door and onto the pavement is physically difficult and potentially unsafe.
Q: Can I take my own sofa to the Buckingham Way tip? You can, but be aware that the Buckingham Way HWRC is notoriously small and can get very congested, especially on weekends. If you are planning to borrow a van to move the sofa, you may need a pre-booked permit, or you could be turned away if they suspect it is trade waste. Our service saves you the queue and the heavy lifting.
