Avoti is a dense district right next to the centre, with a historic street grid and pre-war tenement blocks. Flats here change hands often — the rental market is busy — and with each change a sofa, a mattress or a wardrobe gets left behind by the previous tenant. That is the most typical job we do in Avoti.
We come out, dismantle if needed, carry the furniture out of the flat, load it and take it to the landfill. You don't carry anything.
The pre-war tenement and the courtyard wing
The characteristic building stock in Avoti is pre-war rental blocks, courtyard wings, renovated masonry buildings and commercial units on the ground floor. We don't assume the age or technical condition of any particular house in advance, but in this kind of stock a few things repeat often enough to plan for:
In pre-war tenements one was often never built, so the furniture comes down the stairs from whatever floor it is on. A fourth floor with no lift is not the same job as a second.
It is that half-landing, rather than the flat door, that most often decides whether a wardrobe or a corner sofa has to come apart.
If the flat is not on the street frontage but in a courtyard wing, the route runs through the gates or a carriage arch and then across the courtyard. That leg adds carrying time, and sometimes it has its own stairs as well.
In old buildings the old furniture often ends up in the basement or the attic, where it stands for years. From there the route to the van is longer, and a long-stored piece tends to be heavier and dirtier than when it was put there.
That is why the form asks for the floor, whether there is a lift, and which room the furniture has to come out of. In Avoti those three facts account for almost the whole size of the job.
Courtyards, gates and parking in a dense block
The building density in Avoti is high, and courtyard access and parking are genuine constraints. We don't claim to know what the arrangement is on your particular street — access is agreed in advance, and at some addresses it may be restricted.
If the courtyard has gates, a keypad lock or a procedure set by the building manager, mention it in the notes on the form. We'll then either plan to drive into the courtyard or work on the basis that the van stays on the street and the furniture is carried out to it by hand. Both are workable — what matters is knowing in advance which one it will be.
Public transport in Avoti is good, but for our work the only thing that matters is where a van can stop and how long the route is from the flat door to it.
What we remove in Avoti
We take household and office furniture in any condition, including damaged, broken and long-stored pieces. In Avoti that most often means sofa removal and mattress removal, along with beds, wardrobes, kitchen tables, chairs and shelving. If a piece won't go down the stairs whole, we dismantle it. When an entire rented flat has to be emptied, that is the apartment clearance service. The full list is in the services section.
Prices in Avoti
Removing a single item starts at €30: a mattress from €25, a sofa from €35, a bed from €35, a wardrobe from €40, a table from €30, a chair from €10. Clearing a whole flat starts at €90; dismantling from €15. The minimum order is €30, and prices are shown excluding VAT.
In Avoti the price is driven mainly by the floor without a lift and by the volume. If the furniture is in a basement or a courtyard wing, the carrying distance matters too. Send a photo of each piece and the figure we quote will be the figure on the day, as long as conditions turn out as they looked in the pictures. See the full price list →
