Overview
Clearance services in East Dulwich SE22, explained
Clearance services in East Dulwich SE22 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Southwark, most of them mainly Victorian. 3,337 households sit inside this SE22 patch, 43% of them flats, so we quote on access near Dulwich Park rather than a London average.
How it works
How clearance services works in East Dulwich
Five steps, the same on every SE22 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings on these streets — with 16% 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 East Dulwich customers book us
What follows is specific to East Dulwich: its walls, its access and the paperwork Southwark agents ask for.
East Dulwich walls, not generic walls
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick, the pattern behind 3,337 households inside the SE22 neighbourhood in SE22, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is East Dulwich gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, which is what a 43% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering East Dulwich 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. Narrow terraced streets, resident bays and side returns too tight for a Luton.
Fixed prices
Clearance services prices in East Dulwich
Fixed prices for SE22 and the rest of Southwark. 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 East Dulwich
The same scope across SE22, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Southwark bookings: two crew, all carrying and loading — nothing needs moving to the kerb first, with 3,337 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- Licensed disposal with a waste transfer note emailed the same day, checked on every SE22 visit
- In East Dulwich: sweep-up of the cleared space, sized for the narrow terraced streets, resident bays and side returns too tight for a luton
- On SE22 jobs: segregation for recycling and reuse before anything goes to residual waste, local clearance services included
Not included
- Hazardous waste — asbestos, paint tins, solvents, gas bottles and clinical waste need a specialist carrier, outside the fixed price on East Dulwich bookings
- Structural demolition or removal of anything fixed to the building, and we will say so before the SE22 visit rather than on the day
- Loft or cellar clears where the access is unsafe until it has been surveyed, which we refer on to the right trade in East Dulwich

East Dulwich SE22 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers East Dulwich — the numbers that actually change a clearance services quote.
In East Dulwich (SE22) the split is 43% flats to 57% houses over 3,337 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
The owner-occupier-led mix here (58% owned, 25% privately rented) means a SE22 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick, the pattern behind 3,337 households inside the SE22 neighbourhood behind the plaster in SE22. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why East Dulwich gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, which is what a 43% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering East Dulwich actually produces is the fault we are called back to undo.
East Dulwich sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — lordship Lane's shops and rows of bay-fronted Victorian family houses — which is why a SE22 quote is not a Southwark average.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: narrow terraced streets, resident bays and side returns too tight for a Luton. East Dulwich (Thameslink) 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.

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 across SE22 — and this being London Borough of Southwark territory, with Southwark parking rules in play.
What does a part-load clearance cost in East Dulwich SE22?
A quarter-load starts at £120 and a half-load at £200, priced on the volume in the van rather than the hour on Southwark bookings, with 25% of SE22 homes being privately rented. Loads collected around Dulwich Park are usually quoted from photos on the streets near Dulwich Park, with Dulwich Park 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 SE22?
Often, yes. London Borough of Southwark runs permit-only bays across much of East Dulwich on the East Dulwich rounds — and 26% one-person households here, with 3,337 households on this patch, 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 East Dulwich?
Yes. 43% of homes here are flats, with 58% owner-occupation locally, 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 East Dulwich (SE22) addresses — and this being London Borough of Southwark territory.
I am a tenant in Southwark — will I get proof of disposal?
Every load comes with a waste transfer note emailed the same day, naming the transfer station, weight and date across SE22, with 57% of East Dulwich homes being houses. With 25% of East Dulwich homes privately rented, that document is what most letting agents ask for at check-out on this side of Southwark, with Dulwich Park a few streets away.
Do you handle difficult access in East Dulwich?
Narrow terraced streets, resident bays and side returns too tight for a Luton across SE22. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Southwark it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on the streets near Dulwich Park — and Dulwich Park a few streets away, with 25% of SE22 homes being privately rented.
Are your fitters insured for work in SE22?
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 in this 43% flats neighbourhood — and this being a short walk from East Dulwich (Thameslink), with 57% of East Dulwich homes being houses. That paperwork is what most Southwark letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on Southwark bookings, with Dulwich Park a few streets away.
