Fully functional antique bed removal - suggestions please?


Recommended Posts

Hi! We have a solid metal double bed frame we had arranged to donate to a charity. However, when they came to collect it they said it is too specialist (it is a quality,heavy iron and brass bed) for them. I carried it down three flights of stairs by myself and now can't get it up again. Does anybody want it or can anybody suggest how I can have it ethically removed? It is fully functioning and sturdy, we just don't have space for it in our two bed flat! Thanks!
TRy popping it in the For sale section with a lovely photo - you never know who may love an antique bed. Otherwise, or additionally, would an auction house like to put it in one of their sales? There must be some locally-ish who would collect & sell it.

    • My bike (a ELOPS 120 step over classic from Decathlon) was stolen from outside The Belham this afternoon. I locked it up while I collected my kids, then the street was so busy that I left it there while I walked them home. Did a few other things at home, came back about 5.30pm and it was gone. Sharing just in case anyone sees it or finds it anywhere - it’s a few years old and the chain is a bit rusty/makes a clicking sound so maybe there’s a slight chance someone would dump it! Really annoying and just a reminder to be really careful with bikes. The picture shows the bike model from the Decathlon website.
    • Thanks, I didn't know that.  People are even more stupid than I thought then, if they are willing to wait hours in A&E for an ingrown toenail. I presume they don't get put at the front of the queue. Why isn't the 111 service more widely advertised? That puts you in touch with a doctor, who will advise on the phone or visit, and if necessary  you will be advised to go to A&E or they will arrange an ambulance to take you.
    • It hasn't devolved. It's in exactly the same state it was when it started.
    • A&E isn't allowed to turn people away at the triage stage, even people with hiccups and ingrown toenails... the kinds of ailments a GP might be able to advise against seeking emergency care for. https://www.england.nhs.uk/2025/12/aes-under-siege-from-hiccups-and-ingrowing-toenails/
