London site clearance · West London
We work in Ealing every week — the 'queen of the suburbs' at ealing broadway, plus acton's terraces, southall's punjabi high street and greenford's industry. Construction site clearance is priced against that reality, not a national average.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single load, mixed site waste | £180 | 1–2 hrs | A Luton load of mixed timber, packaging and offcuts, segregated on the van so the inert fraction is not charged at the mixed-waste gate rate. |
| Inert rubble only, per tonne | £145 | 1–2 hrs | Clean brick, block and concrete goes to a recycling site as aggregate feedstock and is charged by weight, not volume, because it is dense and heavy. |
| Plasterboard, segregated, per tonne | £210 | 1–2 hrs | Gypsum has to be kept out of general and inert waste by law and goes to a dedicated recovery site, which charges more per tonne than rubble. |
| Fit-out strip-out clearance, per day | £720 | 8 hrs | Two operatives, a tipper and repeat runs for a first-fix or second-fix strip-out where waste is generated faster than one load can take it. |
| Site tidy and welfare clear, per visit | £240 | 2–3 hrs | A scheduled tidy that keeps walkways, welfare and the loading zone compliant between trades rather than one clear at the end. |
| Final handover clear and sweep | £420 | 4–6 hrs | Everything out, floors swept and the site left inspection-ready for the client walk-round, which is the visit most likely to run past its estimate if it is left to the last trade on site. |

Working in Ealing
Ealing is built from edwardian villas, 1930s semis, victorian terraces in acton and new crossrail-era blocks at southall and ealing broadway, and the mix changes street by street — Acton (W3), Ealing (W5) and Greenford (UB6) each behave differently on the day.
London Borough of Ealing sets the constraint: mixed — driveways in ealing and greenford, but acton and southall have tight cpzs and busy narrow shopping streets. Locally that means narrow terraced streets with permit bays, plus new towers requiring booked lifts and broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks. Ealing sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
London Borough of Ealing will not accept construction and demolition waste on a household round anywhere in Ealing, and a site that puts rubble in a domestic skip risks the load being rejected at the gate and re-charged. We collect under a registered carrier licence, segregate inert rubble from timber and plasterboard on the van, and issue the waste transfer note the principal contractor needs for the site file.
Victorian villa suburbs built for City commuters, expanded hugely by the Great Western and the Central line. That history is why Ealing property behaves the way it does today.
Scope
Method
Step 1
We look at the working face, the route out and the frontage, because the distance from the waste to the vehicle is what actually sets the labour cost.
Step 2
Inert, timber, plasterboard and general are separated at source, which lowers the gate cost and keeps the site's recovery rate defensible.
Step 3
Suspension, permit or a booked loading window arranged in advance so the vehicle is not moved on mid-load.
Step 4
Loads scheduled around the trades rather than dumped at the end, so the walkways and welfare stay compliant throughout.
Step 5
Final sweep, photographs and the transfer notes for every load returned for the site file.
Coverage
Also in this borough
The parent commercial silo — offices, units, shops and estate handovers.
Rubble, plasterboard and strip-out waste removed with transfer notes issued.
Desks, chairs, IT and storage cleared out of hours to a handover date.
Mixed loads collected by volume with a same-day waste transfer note.
Single load, mixed site waste starts at £180 in Ealing, and the ladder runs up to £420 for the largest job on the table above. Waste type first, then carry distance. Clean rubble is cheap by weight and expensive by volume; plasterboard has to be kept separate by law; and waste that has to be barrowed from a third floor to a restricted frontage costs more in labour than it does at the tip gate. 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: NW10, UB1, UB2, UB5, UB6, W13, W3, W5 and W7. On the ground that includes Acton, Ealing, Greenford, Hanwell, Northolt and Park Royal.
Two to three working days for a scheduled clear, next day where a site inspection or handover date has moved. Out-of-hours starts are available in the noise-restricted central boroughs. West London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Mixed — driveways in Ealing and Greenford, but Acton and Southall have tight CPZs and busy narrow shopping streets. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Ealing and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. Edwardian villas, 1930s semis, Victorian terraces in Acton and new Crossrail-era blocks at Southall and Ealing Broadway 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.
Environment Agency registered upper-tier waste carrier. Every load is segregated, weighed in at a permitted transfer station and receipted with a waste transfer note naming the site, so the principal contractor's duty of care record stays complete. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Ealing tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
Two operatives with a 3.5t tipper as standard, scaling to four operatives and a 7.5t vehicle on strip-outs or where the waste has to be barrowed a long way to the frontage. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Ealing postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Asbestos in any form, which requires a licensed removal contractor and a separate consignment route, Demolition, structural cutting or breaking out — we clear what has been broken out, we do not break it out and Contaminated soil or drums of liquid waste, which need a specialist hazardous waste carrier. If something on that list turns up in Ealing, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

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.
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 →
