    You can ask but equally the landlord can say no. Where are they going to store the current furniture? If they dispose of it they'll have to replace it when you leave. Might be easier if you were going to leave your stuff behind.

    Its definitely reasonable to ask. Of course the landlord can refuse as it does put them in a position of having to take the stuff out and store it somewhere if it is in okay condition. They might decide that they can bin it and get new stuff when you leave. I know plenty of long term tenants who have make places their own and the landlord was happy to remove stuff which eventually got sold or skipped or whatever.
