Appliance clearance in Bellingham and Downham SE6, explained

How it works
How appliance clearance works in Bellingham and Downham
Five steps, the same on every SE6 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — measured on the walk in from Bellingham (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map 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 Bellingham and Downham customers book us
What follows is specific to Bellingham and Downham: its walls, its access and the paperwork Lewisham 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. Wide estate roads with kerbside parking and level access — easy for a Luton.
Booked around your day
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common on single machines. Bellingham (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE6 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Bellingham and Downham walls, not generic walls
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit, the reality on the streets around Beckenham Place Park nearby in SE6, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Bellingham and Downham gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, which is why London Borough of Lewisham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Fixed prices
Appliance clearance prices in Bellingham and Downham
Fixed prices for SE6 and the rest of Lewisham. 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.
