Same-Day Sofa Removal in Redhill RH1 1UF – 3rd Floor, No Lift, No Problem

On Thursday, August 14th, we responded to a same-day request from a client in Redhill (RH1 1UF) for the removal of a large L-shaped sofa from a third-floor flat with no lift access. The client called us at 11:00 AM, and by 1:30 PM, our team was on-site, ready to tackle the challenge.


📞 Emergency Call-Out, Scheduled Within Hours

The client reached out with an urgent need to have their sofa removed that same day. Thanks to our flexible scheduling and rapid response team, we were able to confirm the booking and dispatch a van crew within just 2.5 hours.


🧰 The Challenge: L-Shaped Sofa + 3 Flights of Stairs

The bulky L-shaped sofa posed a typical challenge:

  • Located on the 3rd floor
  • No lift in the building
  • Tight corners and stairwell

To safely and efficiently move the sofa, our team had to dismantle it into manageable parts. This not only protected the property from damage but also made the transport process safer and faster.


🧱 Work Completed: 35 Minutes from Start to Finish

The job involved:

  • Careful dismantling of the L-shaped sofa
  • Carrying pieces down three flights of stairs
  • Loading into our transit tipper van
  • Leaving the room spotless after removal

Everything was completed in just 35 minutes, thanks to the preparation and efficiency of our experienced team.


💷 Cost Breakdown

The client was charged a total of £170, broken down as follows:

  • 💰 £140 for ⅓ of a transit tipper van load
  • 💰 £30 stair charge for the 3rd floor manual lift
  • Paid in full on completion
