How it works
How clearance services works in Blackheath
Five steps, the same on every SE3 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Victorian and Edwardian conversion flats with original lath-and-plaster partitions on these streets — with 17% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first 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 Blackheath customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Blackheath wall.
Blackheath walls, not generic walls
We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, measured on the walk in from Blackheath (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map in SE3, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster in SE3, which crumbles the key and drops the panel, which is what a 64% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Blackheath actually produces.
Insured and documented
We are a registered upper-tier waste carrier and issue a waste transfer note for every load — the document that protects you from a fly-tipping fine if your waste is later found dumped.
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. Conservation-area restrictions, narrow village streets and listed staircases.
Fixed prices
Clearance services prices in Blackheath
Fixed prices for SE3 and the rest of Greenwich. 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 Blackheath
The same scope across SE3, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Greenwich bookings: two crew, all carrying and loading — nothing needs moving to the kerb first, allowing for the 32% of SE3 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Licensed disposal with a waste transfer note emailed the same day, noted on the Blackheath job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- In Blackheath: sweep-up of the cleared space, timed against the walk in from Blackheath (Southeastern)
- On SE3 jobs: segregation for recycling and reuse before anything goes to residual waste, agreed on the doorstep in Blackheath before anything is unpacked
Not included
- Hazardous waste — asbestos, paint tins, solvents, gas bottles and clinical waste need a specialist carrier, handled by Royal Borough of Greenwich or a specialist contractor instead
- Structural demolition or removal of anything fixed to the building, which we refer on to the right trade in Blackheath
- Loft or cellar clears where the access is unsafe until it has been surveyed, outside the fixed price on Blackheath bookings

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.

Blackheath SE3 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Blackheath — the numbers that actually change a clearance services quote.
Blackheath SE3 is Georgian and early Victorian and mixed-tenure: 64% of homes here are flats and 36% are houses, across 2,884 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 32% of Blackheath is privately rented and 17% socially rented, a lot of SE3 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Blackheath substrates run to with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, measured on the walk in from Blackheath (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster in SE3, which crumbles the key and drops the panel, which is what a 64% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Blackheath actually produces is the mistake that costs a SE3 customer twice.
Blackheath is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — the heath, the village and Georgian terraces facing open grass — which is why a SE3 quote is not a Greenwich average.
On access, conservation-area restrictions, narrow village streets and listed staircases — one reason standard crews are two people with a 3.5-tonne Luton; bigger clears run two vans or return the same day rather than overfilling. Fitters travelling in use Blackheath (Southeastern).

Volume and weight set the price.

What does a part-load clearance cost in Blackheath SE3?
A quarter-load starts at £120 and a half-load at £200, priced on the volume in the van rather than the hour across SE3, with this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory.

Can you clear from a flat above the second floor in Blackheath?
Yes. 64% of homes here are flats, with 17% social-rented stock nearby, so lift bookings, shared stairwells and porter sign-in are routine for us — tell us the floor and whether there is a lift and the crew size is set for it for Blackheath (SE3) addresses — and 32% of SE3 homes being privately rented.
