Overview
Clearance services in Crayford DA1, explained
Clearance services in Crayford DA1 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Bexley, most of them mainly Victorian. 9,135 households sit inside this DA1 patch, 28% of them flats, so we quote on access near Crayford Greyhound Stadium rather than a London average.
How it works
How clearance services works in Crayford
Five steps, the same on every DA1 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In DA1, Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings — the pattern behind 9,135 households inside the DA1 neighbourhood is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Photo or video survey
Send photos of each room or a walk-through video and you get a fixed price, not a per-hour guess.
Step 2
Fixed written quote
Volume, tip charges, permits and any access cost itemised in one figure with the waste-carrier licence number on it.
Step 3
Sort on site
Anything reusable is set aside for reuse or charity before the rest is loaded.
Step 4
Load and clear
The crew carries everything out; you never need to move items to the kerb.
Step 5
Documented disposal
Waste transfer note with the site, weight and date arrives by email the same day.
Why choose us
Why Crayford customers book us
Four things decide whether a DA1 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Crew sized to the job
Standard crews are two people with a 3.5-tonne Luton; bigger clears run two vans or return the same day rather than overfilling. Wide roads, driveways and retail-park service access; the town centre is one-way.
Booked around your day
Most borough bookings are covered within 48 hours, and same-day slots are usually available before 10am. Crayford (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a DA1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Crayford walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in DA1, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, which is why London Borough of Bexley kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in DA1, 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, as the Crayford stock goes, which is what a 28% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Crayford actually produces.
Fixed prices
Clearance services prices in Crayford
Fixed prices for DA1 and the rest of Bexley. Volume and weight set the price. Access adds to it: stairs above the second floor with no lift, red-route frontages and permit-only bays are the three things that move a London quote.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single item collection | £45 | 20–40 min | One sofa, mattress or fridge carried out and weighed in at a licensed transfer station. |
| Quarter-load (approx. 3 cubic yards) | £120 | 45–75 min | Priced on volume in the van plus tip weight, not on how long the crew is on site. |
| Half-load (approx. 6 cubic yards) | £200 | 1–2 hrs | A typical garage or one-bedroom flat clear-out including loose bagged waste. |
| Full Luton load (approx. 12 cubic yards) | £380 | 2–4 hrs | Full van, two crew, transfer-station charge and the waste transfer note included. |
| Fridge, freezer or air-con unit | £65 | 20–30 min | Gas-containing appliances go to a WEEE-permitted site, which charges per unit. |
| Garden or builders' waste, per cubic yard | £70 | By volume | Soil, rubble and hardcore are heavy: those loads are capped by weight, not space. |

Scope
What's included in Crayford
The same scope across DA1, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In Crayford: two crew, all carrying and loading — nothing needs moving to the kerb first, the way it is done on Crayford jobs
- On DA1 jobs: licensed disposal with a waste transfer note emailed the same day, with 28% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
- Standard on Bexley bookings: sweep-up of the cleared space, arranged with London Borough of Bexley where the kerb needs it
- Segregation for recycling and reuse before anything goes to residual waste — including local clearance services
Not included
- Hazardous waste — asbestos, paint tins, solvents, gas bottles and clinical waste need a specialist carrier, outside the fixed price on Crayford bookings
- Structural demolition or removal of anything fixed to the building, and we will say so before the DA1 visit rather than on the day
- Loft or cellar clears where the access is unsafe until it has been surveyed, handled by London Borough of Bexley or a specialist contractor instead

Crayford DA1 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Crayford — the numbers that actually change a clearance services quote.
Crayford DA1 is mainly Victorian and owner-occupier-led: 28% of homes here are flats and 72% are houses, across 9,135 households (ONS Census 2021).
The owner-occupier-led mix here (57% owned, 16% privately rented) means a DA1 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect solid London stock brick in DA1, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, which is why London Borough of Bexley kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded behind the plaster in DA1. 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, as the Crayford stock goes, which is what a 28% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Crayford actually produces is the fault we are called back to undo.
The Cray river, the greyhound stadium and retail parks on the Dartford border. That character decides the practical detail of clearance services here far more than the borough boundary does. Crayford is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: wide roads, driveways and retail-park service access; the town centre is one-way. Crayford (Southeastern) is the nearest station, and standard crews are two people with a 3.5-tonne Luton; bigger clears run two vans or return the same day rather than overfilling.
