London builders waste · East London
Local building waste clearance for Havering and its 9 covered areas. London's most suburban edge — Romford's market and nightlife, Hornchurch's semis and green belt beyond Upminster.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bagged rubble, per cubic yard | £70 | By volume | Rubble is capped by weight rather than space, so it is priced per yard against the tip's inert-waste rate. |
| Quarter-load mixed construction waste | £150 | 45–75 min | Timber, plasterboard and packaging have to be split at the transfer station, which costs more than a single stream. |
| Half-load builders' waste | £240 | 1–2 hrs | A typical bathroom or small kitchen strip-out, loaded from inside the property rather than the kerb. |
| Full Luton load | £420 | 2–4 hrs | Full van, two crew and the gate fee, with mixed construction waste sorted for recycling on arrival. |
| Plasterboard, per half load | £190 | 1–2 hrs | Gypsum is banned from mixed landfill cells and must go to a dedicated facility, which charges separately. |
| Soil, hardcore and inert spoil, per yard | £80 | By volume | Heavy inert loads are weighed in, and a yard of wet soil can be twice the weight of a yard of timber. |
Domestic prices are the total you pay; builder, contractor and landlord invoices are plus VAT at 20%. Loading from inside the property, dismantling and the waste transfer note are included. Where a bay suspension, skip-alternative permit, ULEZ or the Congestion Charge applies it is itemised in the written quote.
Working in Havering
What our crews walk into in Havering is interwar and post-war semis, bungalows in upminster and new flats around romford station, and the mix changes street by street — Collier Row (RM5), Cranham (RM14) and Elm Park (RM12) each behave differently on the day.
On the ground, driveways and wide roads throughout; only romford town centre needs bay suspensions. Locally that means wide suburban roads, driveways and easy kerbside loading and the easiest access in london — wide roads, drives and level thresholds. Havering sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
London Borough of Havering runs bulky-waste collections and a reuse and recycling centre, and for one or two items in Havering that is a fair option. It stops being useful on size limits, same-week deadlines and anything lifted out of a commercial unit or a communal area — those are the loads we take, under our waste carrier licence, with a transfer note issued on the day.
Essex market towns and farmland that became commuter suburbia after the LMS and District lines arrived. That history is why Havering property behaves the way it does today.

Bagged rubble, per cubic yard starts at £70 in Havering, and the ladder runs up to £80 for the largest job on the table above. Weight and the number of waste streams, not just how much space the pile takes. A yard of plasterboard and a yard of wet rubble are two different gate fees at the transfer station. The borough is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on — only ULEZ, which our vans are compliant with.
We cover the whole borough: RM1, RM11, RM12, RM13, RM14, RM2, RM3, RM5 and RM7. On the ground that includes Collier Row, Cranham, Elm Park, Gidea Park, Harold Wood and Harold Hill and Hornchurch.
Next-day across every borough as standard, with same-day collection common where a trade programme has slipped and the site has to be clear. East London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Driveways and wide roads throughout; only Romford town centre needs bay suspensions. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Havering and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. Interwar and post-war semis, bungalows in Upminster and new flats around Romford station is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.
Registered waste carrier working to duty-of-care rules for construction and demolition waste. Inert rubble goes to an aggregate recycling facility, plasterboard to a dedicated gypsum route and timber to a wood recycling site, with a transfer note issued for every load. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Havering tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
Two crew and a Luton on most strip-outs; three crew and a tipper where the load is rubble, hardcore or soil and weight rather than volume decides the run. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Havering postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Asbestos in any form — insulation board, textured coating or cement sheet — which needs a licensed contractor, Paint, solvents, adhesives and gas bottles, which are hazardous waste and need a specialist carrier and Breaking out concrete, slabs or structural elements, which is demolition rather than clearance. If something on that list turns up in Havering, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

This was my second job for Hello services and I was delighted to have Adam and Sultan back again. I had furniture assembly and clearance work to be done, and again it was done very professionally to a very high standard, and with absolute politeness at all times. They did an excellent job yet again… Read in full →
Amazing service. They dismantled and removed and old running machine for me. It was very heavy. They were very careful of my mosaic floors on the hall. Very easy to use. They were very responsive to book. Arrived promptly and were fast and efficient. I recommend them.
Work fast and neat, even with the huge load of rubbish that was in the house from the previous owners.
