Overview
Clearance services in Cheam SM3, explained
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Cheam, clearance services here covers supply-free fitting from £45. With 21% of Cheam's 13,016 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SM3 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How clearance services works in Cheam
Five steps, the same on every SM3 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Inter-war and post-war semis with timber stud partitions and cavity outer walls, as the Cheam stock goes, a median age of 42 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here 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 Cheam customers book us
Four things decide whether a SM3 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Booked around your day
Most borough bookings are covered within 48 hours, and same-day slots are usually available before 10am. Cheam (Southern) is the nearest station, so a SM3 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Cheam walls, not generic walls
We expect timber stud partitions inside; locally that also means cavity brickwork outside — where 81% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in SM3, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air on these streets — and driveways on nearly every street; the village parade has short loading bays.
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 Cheam
Fixed prices for SM3 and the rest of Sutton. 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 Cheam
The same scope across SM3, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- On SM3 jobs: two crew, all carrying and loading — nothing needs moving to the kerb first, clearance services prices included
- In Cheam: licensed disposal with a waste transfer note emailed the same day, sized for the driveways on nearly every street; the village parade has short loading bays
- Sweep-up of the cleared space, checked on every SM3 visit
- Standard on Sutton bookings: segregation for recycling and reuse before anything goes to residual waste, with 13,016 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 Cheam
- Structural demolition or removal of anything fixed to the building, handled by London Borough of Sutton 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 SM3 visit rather than on the day
