Are these fitted wardrobes worth anything? (pics incl)

I'm use a wheelchair or frame indoors and there's not enough room around the end of the bed for my wheelchair/frame. I have a hospital style electric bed which is longer than a standard bed (It's a single bed). (The bed in the photo is not my bed).

I don't need the storage space and would rather have more floor space. (The door you can see is an en suite.

I was thinking of advertising them on Facebook for someone local. But they would have to remove themselves as I can't. I was going to ask for something like £100-£150? Do you think that is reasonable, or should I offer them for FREE?

They're good wardrobes but I never bought them. If I could get a few quid for them everything helps in these expensive times, I'm on a very low income.

@Littlemountainhum Did you actually read the OP's posts?

he's disabled and uses a wheelchair or Walker and wants some space around his bed. I'm sure he knows how much storage he needs.

I read the OP's posts, and he says: "I might try what one person suggested, i.e. changing the orientation of the bed."
Which suggests it may be possible to retain them and still have the access he needs.
I'd suggest at least seeing if it worked, or maybe if it would work taking just some of them out.

EDIT: Just in case I didn't make myself clear, I want to find a piece of plain carpet a close colour match to replace the patterned carpet under the wardrobes.

You'd be better off getting a room size remnant just for that room. Similar in colour but doesn't have to match the rest of the house. Keeping the current underlay will save a lot - look on fb for remnants and get a local fitter for a couple of hours. Remove the carpet to the same skip as the wardrobes. Hopefully you can get someone to help. I once had a friend's responsible teen on min wage get my carpet up for a couple of hours. But good fitting is a pro's job - £about20/hr cash around here.
