Overview
Clearance services in Lewisham SE13, explained
Clearance services in Lewisham SE13 is a fixed-price visit for social-housing-led homes in Lewisham, most of them mainly Victorian. 3,987 households sit inside this SE13 patch, 75% of them flats, so we quote on access near Lewisham Market on the High Street rather than a London average.
How it works
How clearance services works in Lewisham
Five steps, the same on every SE13 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — and with 36% one-person households in Lewisham, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site 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 Lewisham customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Lewisham wall.
Lewisham walls, not generic walls
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit, the pattern behind 3,987 households inside the SE13 neighbourhood in SE13, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Lewisham gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, the reality on the streets around Lewisham Market on the High Street.
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. Roundabout red routes, market-day loading limits and booked lifts in the towers.
Fixed prices
Clearance services prices in Lewisham
Fixed prices for SE13 and the rest of Lewisham. 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 Lewisham
The same scope across SE13, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Lewisham bookings: two crew, all carrying and loading — nothing needs moving to the kerb first, arranged with London Borough of Lewisham where the kerb needs it
- Licensed disposal with a waste transfer note emailed the same day — including clearance services
- In Lewisham: sweep-up of the cleared space, the way it is done on Lewisham jobs
- On SE13 jobs: segregation for recycling and reuse before anything goes to residual waste, with 75% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
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 Lewisham
- Structural demolition or removal of anything fixed to the building, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE13
- Loft or cellar clears where the access is unsafe until it has been surveyed, and we will say so before the SE13 visit rather than on the day

Lewisham SE13 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Lewisham — the numbers that actually change a clearance services quote.
Lewisham SE13 is mainly Victorian and social-housing-led: 75% of homes here are flats and 25% are houses, across 3,987 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 33% of Lewisham is privately rented and 35% socially rented, a lot of SE13 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit, the pattern behind 3,987 households inside the SE13 neighbourhood, so the fixing that matters in Lewisham is chosen on site — the usual failure here is Lewisham gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, the reality on the streets around Lewisham Market on the High Street.
Lewisham 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 market, the shopping centre and a cluster of new residential towers — which is why a SE13 quote is not a Lewisham average.
Roundabout red routes, market-day loading limits and booked lifts in the towers. Nearest station is Lewisham (DLR, Southeastern), 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.
