Merton · SW19 · Building waste clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Wimbledon Park fitters · Fixed written pricesBooking building waste clearance near Wimbledon Park lake and the All England Club next door? Championships fortnight parking bans, steep hill streets and shared side entrances to the maisonettes, and that is planned into the slot rather than discovered on the day. Prices start at £70 and are fixed before we travel. Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Wimbledon Park, building waste clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £70. With 42% of Wimbledon Park's 3,512 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SW19 shape the slot length we hold.
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
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.
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. Championships fortnight parking bans, steep hill streets and shared side entrances to the maisonettes.
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. Wimbledon Park (District) is the nearest station, so a SW19 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick, the pattern behind 3,512 households inside the SW19 neighbourhood in SW19, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Wimbledon Park gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, and with 30% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
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 →

Wimbledon Park substrates run to some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick, the pattern behind 3,512 households inside the SW19 neighbourhood. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Wimbledon Park gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, and with 30% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the mistake that costs a SW19 customer twice.
The park and lake below the tennis grounds, with Edwardian streets on the slope down to Southfields. That character decides the practical detail of building waste clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. Wimbledon Park is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Championships fortnight parking bans, steep hill streets and shared side entrances to the maisonettes. Nearest station is Wimbledon Park (District), 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.

Asbestos in any form — insulation board, textured coating or cement sheet — which needs a licensed contractor; Paint, solvents, adhesives and gas bottles in Wimbledon Park, which are hazardous waste and need a specialist carrier; Breaking out concrete, slabs or structural elements, which is demolition rather than clearance; Contaminated or Japanese-knotweed-affected soil, with Wimbledon Park lake and the All England Club next door a few streets away — and 42% of homes here being flats, which needs a permitted disposal route.
