Old furniture removal in Riga's Old Town — in flats, hotels, offices and commercial premises. We plan access in advance.
In Vecriga (Riga's Old Town) furniture removal starts not with the furniture but with the question of where a van can stop at all. This is a pedestrian environment and vehicle access is regulated. That means the job has to be planned in advance — the arrival time, the stopping place and the carrying route are part of the task, not a side issue.
We drive out to the Old Town. We dismantle if there's no other way, carry the furniture out of the property, load it and haul it away for disposal.
Access has to be arranged — and that changes the whole plan
The character of Vecriga is pedestrian quarters and narrow streets with heavy footfall. What rules apply to a particular address — where you may drive in, how long you may stop, whether a permit is needed — we don't claim to know or invent in advance. We arrange it before setting out, and at some addresses access may be restricted or possible only at certain times.
There are three practical consequences:
From the nearest permitted stopping place to the entrance the piece often has to go by hand, and in the Old Town that leg tends to be considerably longer than elsewhere in the city. It's time we plan in advance rather than discover on site.
So we prepare the furniture and gather it by the entrance first, and only then load — in one go, rather than piece by piece.
In narrow streets full of people you can't carry a large item against the flow at any hour, so we agree a specific working time.
If you as the owner, the building manager or a representative of the site know what applies at your address — where stopping is allowed, whether the courtyard has gates, who holds the key — write it in the notes on the form. In Vecriga that one line saves the most.
Medieval stairs: narrow, and often spiral
The stock in Vecriga is masonry buildings from the medieval, Renaissance, Baroque and later periods. Properties in a single block differ sharply, and a particular building's age, structure or the condition of its stairs can't be assumed without looking. But the stairwell of an old masonry building tends to set completely different problems from an apartment block:
Built at a time when nobody was reckoning with a corner sofa or a double mattress. Sometimes even a fully dismantled piece goes out in stages.
In a spiral stairwell a long item can't be turned anywhere — there's no straight stretch to angle it on. In that case dismantling isn't a choice, it's the only option.
Heritage protection means a shaft simply can't be built into every building. Where there is a lift, it tends to be small and not always useful for furniture.
Old openings tend to be lower or narrower than the modern standard, and the threshold takes a few more centimetres.
That is why photos matter more from Old Town addresses than anywhere else: without them there's no honest way to judge how many people are needed and whether the piece has to be taken apart.
Hotels, offices, commercial premises and flats
In Vecriga hotels, offices, catering and retail premises sit alongside flats, so a large share of the work here is commercial. Refurbishing hotel rooms means a uniform batch of furniture — beds, mattresses, bedside tables, chairs; a café or shop changing hands means tables, chairs, counters and shelving.
On sites like these the person responsible for the site arranges the work, and the working time is often outside visitor hours. For office and commercial furniture see office furniture removal; the arrangements for businesses are here.
What we remove in Vecriga
We remove household, office and commercial furniture in any condition. Often it's mattress removal and sofa removal, as well as beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs, counters and shelving. If a piece won't come down the stairs whole — and in the Old Town that happens often — we dismantle it. Clearing all the rooms is apartment clearance. Everything else — in the services section.

In Vecriga the figure is set by three things: how far from the entrance the van can stand, what the stairwell is like, and whether the piece has to be dismantled. So the form asks for the floor, photos and a note about access. We quote from those, and the price doesn't change on site as long as conditions match what you told us. See the full price list →

Frequently asked questions
We arrange access and the stopping place before setting out — at some addresses it may be restricted or allowed only at certain times. We don't claim to know the rules in advance. If you know what applies at your address, put it in the notes on the form.
We park as close as we're allowed and carry the rest by hand. In the Old Town that route tends to be longer than elsewhere, so we plan it in advance and account for it when quoting — rather than adding it on the day.
In a spiral stairwell a long item can't be turned anywhere, so we almost always dismantle it. Dismantling starts at €15 excluding VAT. Send photos of the stairwell and the doorway — from those we can see how many parts the piece has to come apart into.
Yes. In the Old Town it's a common job: beds and mattresses from rooms, tables, chairs, counters and shelving from commercial premises. We fit the working time around visitor flow, and access is organised by the person responsible for the site.
Not an obstacle, but it determines how we work: on narrow stairs and in narrow doorways we dismantle a piece rather than force it through. We don't assume a building's specific condition in advance — we see it on the visit and from the photos.
