Overview
Appliance clearance in Petts Wood BR5, explained
Appliance clearance in Petts Wood BR5 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Bromley, most of them inter-war. 2,972 households sit inside this BR5 patch, 8% of them flats, so we quote on access near The Willett Memorial Wood rather than a London average.
How it works
How appliance clearance works in Petts Wood
Five steps, the same on every BR5 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Inter-war and post-war semis with timber stud partitions and cavity outer walls on these streets — the pattern behind 2,972 households inside the BR5 neighbourhood is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Tell us the appliance
Type, floor and whether it is free-standing or integrated. That is all we need for a fixed price.
Step 2
Book the slot
Timed to your delivery or installation window so the old machine is gone before the new one arrives.
Step 3
Disconnect and protect
Plug-in appliances unplugged and drained, hall and lift lobby sheeted before anything moves.
Step 4
Carry and load
Barrowed out by two crew — three on an American fridge-freezer or a range cooker.
Step 5
Degas, recycle, receipt
Fridges degassed at a licensed site, other WEEE recycled, transfer note handed over.
Why choose us
Why Petts Wood customers book us
What follows is specific to Petts Wood: its walls, its access and the paperwork Bromley agents ask for.
Crew sized to the job
Two crew and a Luton with a sack barrow; three for American fridge-freezers, range cookers and basement carries. Driveways throughout; the parade has short timed loading bays.
Booked around your day
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common on single machines. Petts Wood (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a BR5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Petts Wood walls, not generic walls
We expect timber stud partitions inside; locally that also means cavity brickwork outside, and with 22% one-person households in Petts Wood, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in BR5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Petts Wood gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, and with 8% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Fixed prices
Appliance clearance prices in Petts Wood
Fixed prices for BR5 and the rest of Bromley. Appliance type, the floor it is on and whether it is free-standing or built in — refrigerant units cost more because of the degassing gate fee.
| 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. |

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 →

Petts Wood BR5 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Petts Wood — the numbers that actually change a appliance clearance quote.
2,972 households sit inside the BR5 neighbourhood covering Petts Wood. The build is inter-war, the tenure profile owner-occupier-led, and 8% of those homes are flats.
The owner-occupier-led mix here (90% owned, 8% privately rented) means a BR5 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect timber stud partitions inside; locally that also means cavity brickwork outside, and with 22% one-person households in Petts Wood, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site behind the plaster in BR5. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Petts Wood gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, and with 8% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the fault we are called back to undo.
A planned 1930s commuter suburb with a conservation-area shopping parade. That character decides the practical detail of appliance clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. Petts Wood is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Driveways throughout; the parade has short timed loading bays. Nearest station is Petts Wood (Southeastern), and two crew and a Luton with a sack barrow; three for American fridge-freezers, range cookers and basement carries.

Will a built wardrobe fit through a Petts Wood doorway?
