Overview
Restaurant and cafe clearance in Earlsfield SW18, explained
This page prices restaurant and cafe clearance for Earlsfield SW18 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 32% privately rented and 7,243 households in total. Work starts at £380, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Wandsworth permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How restaurant and cafe clearance works in Earlsfield
Five steps, the same on every SW18 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In SW18, New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard — the pattern behind 7,243 households inside the SW18 neighbourhood is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Site visit and equipment list
Every appliance, fridge and fixture is listed against a disconnect-and-remove plan before a date is booked.
Step 2
Gas and electrical sign-off confirmed
We wait for written confirmation that appliances are isolated by a qualified engineer before moving them.
Step 3
Kitchen stripped in sequence
Fridges and cold rooms first for degassing, then cooking equipment, then extraction, so the crew is never waiting on a certificate mid-job.
Step 4
Grease trap and drainage cleared
Trap emptied and removed by a licensed handler, with the disposal note kept for the site file.
Step 5
Front-of-house and final sweep
Tables, chairs and fittings cleared, unit swept and photographed for the landlord handover.
Why choose us
Why Earlsfield customers book us
What follows is specific to Earlsfield: its walls, its access and the paperwork Wandsworth agents ask for.
Crew sized to the job
Two to three operatives as standard, with a specialist F-gas engineer booked in for any unit holding refrigerant-charged equipment. Narrow terraced streets, permit bays and railway-bridge height limits.
Booked around your day
Three to five working days where degassing and Gas Safe sign-off need to be arranged first; a front-of-house-only clear can often be booked within 48 hours. Earlsfield (South Western) is the nearest station, so a SW18 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Earlsfield walls, not generic walls
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, and with 32% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in SW18, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Earlsfield stock goes, which is what a 61% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Earlsfield actually produces.
Fixed prices
Restaurant and cafe clearance prices in Earlsfield
Fixed prices for SW18 and the rest of Wandsworth. The number of plumbed and gas-connected appliances, not the floor area. A small unit with a full kitchen and a grease trap can cost more to clear than a larger unit that only ever served coffee and cake.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Front-of-house strip-out, small unit | £380 | 3–4 hrs | Tables, chairs, till point and soft furnishings cleared from a café-sized unit under around 800 sq ft. |
| Commercial kitchen equipment removal, per item | £65 | 20–30 min | Ovens, fryers and prep tables are heavy, often plumbed or hard-wired, and need disconnection before they can be moved safely. |
| Refrigeration and F-gas degassing, per unit | £95 | 30–45 min | Fridges and cold rooms holding refrigerant must be certified degassed before removal, which is a licensed job, not a lift-and-carry one. |
| Grease trap emptying and removal | £210 | 1–2 hrs | Trapped fat, oil and grease is controlled waste that has to go to a licensed treatment facility, and the trap itself is often built into the drainage and needs careful disconnection. |
| Extraction canopy and ductwork removal | £340 | half day | Canopy, ductwork and filters are usually the last things fitted and the hardest to remove, often needing access equipment for ceiling-height runs. |
| Full unit closure clearance | £680 | 1 day | Kitchen, front-of-house and cellar cleared and swept in one visit for a lease handover, priced against the full inventory rather than by room. |

Scope
What's included in Earlsfield
The same scope across SW18, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In Earlsfield: certified F-gas degassing before any refrigeration or cold room is removed, the way it is done on Earlsfield jobs
- On SW18 jobs: grease trap emptying and disposal to a licensed food-waste treatment facility, with 61% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
- Standard on Wandsworth bookings: disconnection of gas and electrical appliances confirmed with a qualified engineer before removal, arranged with London Borough of Wandsworth where the kerb needs it
- Extraction canopy, ductwork and filter removal, including access equipment where ceiling height requires it — including local restaurant and cafe clearance
- In Earlsfield: segregation of stainless steel and scrap catering equipment for recycling credit where applicable, timed against the walk in from Earlsfield (South Western)
- On SW18 jobs: waste transfer note and, where requested, a certificate of destruction for branded signage and menus, agreed on the doorstep in Earlsfield before anything is unpacked
Not included
- Gas safe disconnection itself, which must be carried out or signed off by a Gas Safe engineer before we remove the appliance, outside the fixed price on Earlsfield bookings
- Structural kitchen extract ducting that runs through the building fabric beyond the unit's own ceiling void, and we will say so before the SW18 visit rather than on the day
- Cellar cooling and beer line servicing contracts, which are usually held directly with the brewery or supplier, handled by London Borough of Wandsworth or a specialist contractor instead
- Licensed premises signage removal that requires scaffold or a road closure, which is quoted separately, which we refer on to the right trade in Earlsfield

Earlsfield SW18 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Earlsfield — the numbers that actually change a restaurant and cafe clearance quote.
Earlsfield SW18 is mainly Victorian and mixed-tenure: 61% of homes here are flats and 39% are houses, across 7,243 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 32% of Earlsfield is privately rented and 16% socially rented, a lot of SW18 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, and with 32% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does behind the plaster in SW18. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Earlsfield stock goes, which is what a 61% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Earlsfield actually produces is the fault we are called back to undo.
Garratt Lane's independents and quiet grids of Victorian terraces. That character decides the practical detail of restaurant and cafe clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. Earlsfield is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, narrow terraced streets, permit bays and railway-bridge height limits — one reason two to three operatives as standard, with a specialist F-gas engineer booked in for any unit holding refrigerant-charged equipment. Fitters travelling in use Earlsfield (South Western).

The number of plumbed and gas-connected appliances, not the floor area on this side of Wandsworth. A small unit with a full kitchen and a grease trap can cost more to clear than a larger unit that only ever served coffee and cake for Earlsfield (SW18) addresses — and 16% social-rented stock nearby, with Wandsworth parking rules in play.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Earlsfield SW18?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on SW18 jobs, with 26% one-person households here.

With 61% of Earlsfield homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm in this 61% flats neighbourhood, with 32% of SW18 homes being privately rented — and 16% social-rented stock nearby, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
