Old sofa disposal: Where to take old furniture in Tallinn?
The Situation: The old sofa is in the way and heavy
You've bought a new corner sofa that is being delivered today, but the old living room giant is still in the way. You can't leave it in the stairwell, and sneaking it next to the dumpsters will result in a hefty fine from the housing association.
Disposing of old furniture is often difficult simply because of its large dimensions. Soft furniture like sofas and mattresses won't fit in a standard car, and their weight makes moving them alone risky.
Is it worth driving to the waste station yourself?
In Tallinn, residents can take their old furniture to the Pääsküla or Paljassaare waste stations, for example. While this sounds cheap, you have to consider additional costs: you have to rent a trailer, ensure your car has a tow hitch, find a friend to help carry it, and spend hours of your free time.
Also, you need to keep in mind that waste stations often apply fees for furniture disposal, so the process isn't completely free anyway.
The most convenient solution: Furniture removal with loading
Instead of handling all the logistics yourself, use Golog's old furniture removal service. You don't even need to dismantle the sofa – our team arrives, takes the sofa apart if necessary, carries it out of your home, and takes it straight to disposal.
This is safe for your new floors, saves your back, and often the overall service price is cheaper than the cost of renting a trailer and wasting your own time.
