Overview
Appliance clearance in Herne Hill SE24, explained

How it works
How appliance clearance works in Herne Hill
Five steps, the same on every SE24 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Herne Hill gives us terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings, where 69% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year 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 Herne Hill customers book us
Four things decide whether a SE24 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Booked around your day
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common on single machines. Herne Hill (Thameslink, Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE24 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Herne Hill walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in SE24, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and with 20% one-person households in Herne Hill, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in SE24, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in SE24, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — and railway-bridge height limits on half moon lane and permit-only side streets.
Insured and documented
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.
Fixed prices
Appliance clearance prices in Herne Hill
Fixed prices for SE24 and the rest of Southwark. 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. |

Scope
What's included in Herne Hill
The same scope across SE24, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Two crew with a sack barrow and floor protection, stairs and walk-ups included, noted on the Herne Hill job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- Standard on Southwark bookings: unplugging and pulling out free-standing appliances, including under-counter units, allowing for the 19% of SE24 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- On SE24 jobs: fridges and freezers taken to a licensed degassing facility, never tipped, agreed on the doorstep in Herne Hill before anything is unpacked
- In Herne Hill: wEEE recycling with the waste transfer note issued in your name on the day, timed against the walk in from Herne Hill (Thameslink, Southeastern)
- Working appliances offered to London reuse partners before recycling, checked on every SE24 visit
Not included
- Disconnecting hard-wired cookers or gas appliances — that needs a Gas Safe or qualified electrician, which we refer on to the right trade in Herne Hill
- Removing built-in units from carcassing where joinery has to be cut, handled by London Borough of Southwark or a specialist contractor instead
- Commercial refrigeration with pressurised systems, outside the fixed price on Herne Hill bookings
- Appliances containing food waste that has not been emptied, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE24

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 →

Herne Hill SE24 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Herne Hill — the numbers that actually change a appliance clearance quote.
The SE24 stock around Brockwell Park and Lido is mainly Victorian. ONS records 27% flats, 73% houses and 3,150 households in Herne Hill.
Owner-occupation runs at 69% in Herne Hill, so alongside the 19% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Walls are solid London stock brick in SE24, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and with 20% one-person households in Herne Hill, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site, so the fixing that matters in Herne Hill is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in SE24, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — and railway-bridge height limits on half moon lane and permit-only side streets.
Anyone who knows Herne Hill knows the pattern near Brockwell Park and Lido: brockwell Park, the velodrome and a compact village of independents. We plan the SE24 visit around it. Herne Hill sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Railway-bridge height limits on Half Moon Lane and permit-only side streets. Nearest station is Herne Hill (Thameslink, Southeastern), and two crew and a Luton with a sack barrow; three for American fridge-freezers, range cookers and basement carries.

Common questions
Appliance clearance in Herne Hill SE24 — your questions.
How much does appliance clearance cost in Herne Hill SE24?
Single small appliance (microwave, vacuum, TV) starts at £40 in Herne Hill on SE24 jobs — and 69% owner-occupation locally, with Southwark parking rules in play, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. 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 on the Herne Hill rounds — and Brockwell Park and Lido a few streets away, with 20% one-person households here.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Herne Hill SE24?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on Southwark bookings, with Brockwell Park and Lido a few streets away. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Herne Hill most weeks on the Herne Hill rounds, with 19% of SE24 homes being privately rented.
How long does flat-pack assembly take in Herne Hill?
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level in Herne Hill, with this being a short walk from Herne Hill (Thameslink, Southeastern).
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Herne Hill doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on this side of Southwark. With 27% of Herne Hill homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm in this 27% flats neighbourhood — and a median age of 41 in this neighbourhood, with 73% of Herne Hill homes being houses, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Is same-day or evening appliance clearance available in Southwark?
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common on single machines on SE24 jobs. Herne Hill sits close to Herne Hill (Thameslink, Southeastern) on this side of Southwark, with Southwark parking rules in play, so we can usually add a SE24 job to an existing Southwark round at short notice.
Do you handle difficult access in Herne Hill?
Railway-bridge height limits on Half Moon Lane and permit-only side streets for Herne Hill (SE24) addresses. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Southwark it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on the streets near Brockwell Park and Lido — and this being a short walk from Herne Hill (Thameslink, Southeastern), with this being London Borough of Southwark territory.
Are your fitters insured for work in SE24?
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 in Herne Hill, with 69% owner-occupation locally, with a transfer note in your name. That paperwork is what most Southwark letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on Southwark bookings, with Southwark parking rules in play.
