Overview
This page prices building waste clearance for West Drayton and Yiewsley UB7 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 27% privately rented and 7,842 households in total. Work starts at £70, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Hillingdon permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
Rubble, plasterboard, timber or mixed, roughly how many yards, and the floor it sits on. That is enough for a fixed price.
Step 2
We book around the trade schedule — a strip-out on Monday and the make-good on Wednesday get two separate collections.
Step 3
Hall, stairs and lift lobby sheeted before loading starts, because rubble dust in a communal area is charged back to the leaseholder.
Step 4
Loaded by hand from where the waste actually is, with gypsum kept out of the mixed stream so the tip does not reject the load.
Step 5
Weighed in at a licensed transfer station and the transfer note issued the same day for your file or the building control record.
Why choose us
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. Canal bridges limit access; new estates have wide roads and allocated parking.
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. West Drayton (Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, so a UB7 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — which is what a 36% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Drayton and Yiewsley actually produces in UB7, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — the pattern behind 7,842 households inside the UB7 neighbourhood.
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.
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. |

Scope
The guys arrived prompt at 9 am . Sorry I’m rubbish at names but I remember the one guys initials were AB . He really worked hard . Both guys were very polite and were happy to pop back up the stairs to finish dusting the bedrooms surfaces that were missed . Not one moan… Read in full →
Hannah and her friend were friendly and thoughtful. They were very professional and hard working. They also turned a junk room into a nice bedroom. I cannot thank them or praise them enough.
Very good experience. House was filthy after lots of building works and previous owners not really looking after it (the bathroom was disgusting). After 4 hours of cleaning my house looks like a brand new home and smells clean again, no more dust/rubble and the bathroom looks so clean I could eat off the floor… Read in full →

Working in West Drayton and Yiewsley
Census 2021 puts West Drayton and Yiewsley at 7,842 households with a median age of 33.7. The mainly Victorian stock is mixed-tenure, which is why 64% houses and 36% flats need different handling in UB7.
Owner-occupation runs at 48% in West Drayton and Yiewsley, so alongside the 27% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — which is what a 36% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Drayton and Yiewsley actually produces behind the plaster in UB7. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — the pattern behind 7,842 households inside the UB7 neighbourhood is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows West Drayton and Yiewsley knows the pattern near West Drayton Green and the Grand Union Canal: canal-side town on the Colne, with the green, the station and new housing. We plan the UB7 visit around it. West Drayton and Yiewsley is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Canal bridges limit access; new estates have wide roads and allocated parking. Nearest station is West Drayton (Elizabeth line), and 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.
