Second Hand Furniture - any recommendations near Bexleyheath?

I've recently moved to the Bexleyheath area, and I'm looking for some solid second hand furniture. I'm having trouble finding any shops, does anyone have any recommendations?

Ideally I'm looking for a massive house clearance type place, are there any in SE London?

Google isn't bringing up much, but hopefully there are some people in the know here.

    A few of the local charity shops often have furniture...the British Heart Foundation shop in Sidcup (there are 2, one is set back from highstreet) has sofas, tables, electrical items etc.

    Fairly sure the Greenwich Hospice shop in Bexleyheath & the Red Cross shop have similar things. The EllenorLions Hospice shop in Bexley Village (and Crayford) also has furniture.

    There used to be a few second hand furniture shops in Northumberland Heath as well.
  • Thanks for the ideas guys - I'm finding Sevenoaks and Tonbridge the best places so far.

    Use Ebay. Without doubts it provided us with most value for money for most of the furniture for our first home. I just bid for items within a 30 mile ending close together. Agreed a pickup day with the sellers & hired a van for one day & picked all of it up. A bit hectic but definitely money saving. Do carry your toolkit for disassembling the furniture.
  • I might have to get over my hatred of ebay (following my paypal account being scammed) - there does seem to be some good pieces for sale.

    You might find some more local suggestions via the Furniture Re-Use Network.
