Collect / remove a glass display cabinet

£50

Whitton, Greater London

24th Nov 2025

I need a glass display cabinet removed from my home. It is in excellent condition, fully intact, with zero damage. It has lockable doors and comes with two keys. This cabinet is definitely worth money to someone who resells furniture, but I don’t have the time to list it on eBay, and local charities are fully booked for collections for the next few weeks. I need the space, which is the only reason I’m hiring someone to take it away. Please note: • Budget is capped at £50. • I will not negotiate on this. • The cabinet is yours to keep or resell once removed.

5 star service, would definitely hire again

Carpenter / Joiner to Make Display Cabinet on Castor Wheels

£250

Castelnau, Greater London

20th Oct 2025

We are looking for an indoor standalone display cabinet made from MDF/pine like in the attached two diagrams. This will be propped up against the office window on the inside. On top will rest a model for display. Underneath, the compartments will be displaying 3x 3D printers (hence the large dimensions). This cabinet should be on 6x heavy duty castor wheels so can be moved around (e.g. to allow for easy vacuum-cleaning underneath). Colour of the cabinet should be white. Looking for a carpenter/joiner who can make this quickly and at a good price. This is for a new property business on a tight budget, so please don't quote silly money - but rather with the expectation that, if successful, this will be the first of many orders.

He picked up the task late in the evening, clearly understood the requirements, and delivered a beautifully constructed cabinet within a few days - exactly as promised, on budget, and all with a smile! Fantastic communication throughout. A perfect first experience on Airtasker. Couldn’t recommend Liam more highly, and look forward to working with him again many more times!
