Overview
Clearance services in Greenwich SE10, explained
This page prices clearance services for Greenwich SE10 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 31% privately rented and 17,397 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and Royal Borough of Greenwich permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How clearance services works in Greenwich
Five steps, the same on every SE10 job, so you know what happens before you commit. New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard, as the Greenwich stock goes, which is what a 73% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Greenwich actually produces 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 Greenwich customers book us
What follows is specific to Greenwich: its walls, its access and the paperwork Greenwich agents ask for.
Booked around your day
Most borough bookings are covered within 48 hours, and same-day slots are usually available before 10am. Cutty Sark (DLR) is the nearest station, so a SE10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Greenwich walls, not generic walls
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in SE10, with metal stud partitions between rooms — the pattern behind 17,397 households inside the SE10 neighbourhood in SE10, 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 on these streets — and with 32% one-person households in Greenwich, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
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.
Fixed prices
Clearance services prices in Greenwich
Fixed prices for SE10 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 Greenwich
The same scope across SE10, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- On SE10 jobs: two crew, all carrying and loading — nothing needs moving to the kerb first, clearance services included
- In Greenwich: licensed disposal with a waste transfer note emailed the same day, sized for the cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access
- Sweep-up of the cleared space, checked on every SE10 visit
- Standard on Greenwich bookings: segregation for recycling and reuse before anything goes to residual waste, with 17,397 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
Not included
- Hazardous waste — asbestos, paint tins, solvents, gas bottles and clinical waste need a specialist carrier, which we refer on to the right trade in Greenwich
- Structural demolition or removal of anything fixed to the building, handled by Royal Borough of Greenwich or a specialist contractor instead
- Loft or cellar clears where the access is unsafe until it has been surveyed, and we will say so before the SE10 visit rather than on the day

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.

Expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in SE10, with metal stud partitions between rooms — the pattern behind 17,397 households inside the SE10 neighbourhood behind the plaster in SE10. 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 on these streets — and with 32% one-person households in Greenwich, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows Greenwich knows the pattern near The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark: world Heritage centre of the market, the Cutty Sark and the Observatory on the hill.

What does a part-load clearance cost in Greenwich SE10?
A quarter-load starts at £120 and a half-load at £200, priced on the volume in the van rather than the hour on Greenwich bookings, with 27% of Greenwich homes being houses. Loads collected around The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark are usually quoted from photos in Greenwich — and 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented, with The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark a few streets away, so the figure you are given before the crew leaves is the figure you pay.
Do you need a permit to park in SE10?
Often, yes. Royal Borough of Greenwich runs permit-only bays across much of Greenwich across SE10 — and this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory, with The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark a few streets away, and where a suspension is needed we arrange it and itemise the cost in the quote instead of adding it afterwards.
Can you clear from a flat above the second floor in Greenwich?
Yes. 73% of homes here are flats, with this being a short walk from Cutty Sark (DLR) — and this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory, 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 on the Greenwich rounds.

Every load comes with a waste transfer note emailed the same day, naming the transfer station, weight and date in this 73% flats neighbourhood, with Greenwich parking rules in play.

Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access on the streets near The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in Royal Borough of Greenwich it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards for Greenwich (SE10) addresses — and 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented, with 73% of homes here being flats.
