Bromley · BR1 · Appliance clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Bickley fitters · Fixed written pricesAppliance clearance for Bickley (BR1) households — 6,738 of them, 25% in flats. From £40 fixed, two crew and a Luton with a sack barrow; three for American fridge-freezers, range cookers and basement carries Insured fitters, every fixing torqued, and the flat-pack packaging taken away.
Overview
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Bickley, appliance clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £40. With 25% of Bickley's 6,738 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in BR1 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
Type, floor and whether it is free-standing or integrated. That is all we need for a fixed price.
Step 2
Timed to your delivery or installation window so the old machine is gone before the new one arrives.
Step 3
Plug-in appliances unplugged and drained, hall and lift lobby sheeted before anything moves.
Step 4
Barrowed out by two crew — three on an American fridge-freezer or a range cooker.
Step 5
Fridges degassed at a licensed site, other WEEE recycled, transfer note handed over.
Why choose us
We expect timber stud partitions inside in Bickley, cavity brickwork outside — where 74% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in BR1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air on these streets — the pattern behind 6,738 households inside the BR1 neighbourhood.
Registered waste carrier operating to the WEEE Regulations. Fridges and freezers go to a licensed degassing facility, all other appliances to an approved WEEE treatment site, with a transfer note in your name.
Two crew and a Luton with a sack barrow; three for American fridge-freezers, range cookers and basement carries. Long gravel drives, mature trees limiting height and wide easy roads.
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common on single machines. Bickley (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a BR1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single small appliance (microwave, vacuum, TV) | £40 | 15–30 min | Small WEEE is priced per unit because the gate fee is per item, not per kilo. |
| Washing machine, dryer or dishwasher | £60 | 30 min | Two crew and a sack barrow: a drum-loaded machine is 70–80kg and rarely on the ground floor in London. |
| Fridge or freezer | £70 | 30 min | Fridges carry refrigerant gases and must go to a degassing facility, which is a separate licensed stream. |
| American fridge-freezer or range cooker | £95 | 45–60 min | Oversize units need three crew, door removal or a strap lift down a shared stairwell. |
| Kitchen strip-out (four or more appliances) | £180 | 1–2 hrs | Refit and landlord jobs where the whole run comes out in one visit, uplifted together. |

Scope
I asked Hello Services for a deep clean of the carpets of a house in London we were moving into. Loqman and his colleague arrived on time and were incredibly fast in firstly hoovering all to be worked on and then deep cleaning a total of seven sets of carpets across our first and second… Read in full →
The company that moved me called beewise are amazing! i would use them again if needed 😊 The drivers very friendly and helpful, they did not let me touch even a single box and handled everything with care.

We are over the moon with our one-off deep clean, the team (led by Mo, i think he said his name was!) turned up early and were done within 4 hours, we can't believe how much they got done in that time. They went absolutely above and beyond and cleaned inside cabinets/the fridge even though… Read in full →

Expect timber stud partitions inside in Bickley, cavity brickwork outside — where 74% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year behind the plaster in BR1. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air on these streets — the pattern behind 6,738 households inside the BR1 neighbourhood is the fault we are called back to undo.
Two streets can behave very differently in Bickley: large Victorian and Edwardian houses on wide avenues east of Bromley. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Bickley is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, long gravel drives, mature trees limiting height and wide easy roads — one reason two crew and a Luton with a sack barrow; three for American fridge-freezers, range cookers and basement carries. Fitters travelling in use Bickley (Southeastern).
