How it works
Step 1
Send photos of each room or a walk-through video and you get a fixed price, not a per-hour guess.
Step 2
Volume, tip charges, permits and any access cost itemised in one figure with the waste-carrier licence number on it.
Step 3
Anything reusable is set aside for reuse or charity before the rest is loaded.
Step 4
The crew carries everything out; you never need to move items to the kerb.
Step 5
Waste transfer note with the site, weight and date arrives by email the same day.
Why choose us
Standard crews are two people with a 3.5-tonne Luton; bigger clears run two vans or return the same day rather than overfilling. Single access roads onto the island, dock-side loading bays and lift booking in every block.
Most borough bookings are covered within 48 hours, and same-day slots are usually available before 10am. Crossharbour (DLR) is the nearest station, so a E14 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — the reality on the streets around Island Gardens and the Greenwich foot tunnel in E14, 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 — with 28% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.
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.
