Getting rid of furniture in Limerick City

kiersm · 10-01-2011 10:47pm #1

Hey all I'm getting a new suite of furniture delivered on Sat and I can't seem to find anywhere to get rid of my old suite anyone know of anywhere it can be dumped.

I emailed the SVP to see if they wud be interested in taking it but never heard back from them.

I'm thinking i mite just ring one of those companies that advertise in the post to come and take it away on Sat?

I know someone looking for an old suite of furniture. Could you upload a few pics. or a link to pics.
I could collect in my truck.

You should try to put it up on Jumbletown.ie, a site where you can advertise stuff which is free to take away. I've gotten rid of numerous bits of furniture (that I considered rubbish) through this site.

Generally, things are snapped up really quickly once you upload a photo and everyone who has come to collect my unwanted chairs/headboards/matresses etc. has been so grateful.

There's a charity shop called Smart Choice on William street which takes furniture for its downstairs section.

You may have to bring it to them though, I don't know.

Chances are if you ring up a "man with a van" type operation who advertise dump runs, that they won't have a valid waste collection permit which is required for such jobs and there's also a chance you might see your suite of furniture dumped at the side of a back road somewhere too

If you're looking to pay somebody to take it away, make sure they have a collection permit.

Your best bet would be to try sites like Jumbletown.ie, if it's any way decent and not in complete tatters, you should get a taker fairly fast! Take a photo to avoid time wasters etc. Best of luck!

Stick a for sale sign on it, 50 euro and leave it outside your home. Go out for the day.
Will magically be gone when you get back!
