Cost of furniture packages

If you take one of our packages a weekly furnished charge is added to your rent account.  The charge will be confirmed with you and entered onto your tenancy agreement at the point of sign up.

The furnished charge depends on the furniture band you have chosen. Prices are competitive and start from £9.96 per week. The flooring package is fixed at £10.74 per week.

*Prices are subject change

The furnished charge is a service charge, which covers you for the duration of your tenancy.  The charge includes all repairs, maintenance, and replacements for your flooring and furnished items.

If you are in receipt of Housing Benefit or Universal Credit, some or all the furnished charge may be covered.  You will need to update DWP when you sign your tenancy agreement with your rent changes.

Goods for sale

If are an RMBC tenant but aren’t eligible for the scheme, we often have recycled items that you can buy from us at a depreciated rate.  These items have been professionally cleaned, visually assessed and PAT tested where necessary.
