London bulky waste collection · East London
Local bulky waste collection for Barking and Dagenham and its 5 covered areas. The Becontree estate, Barking's riverside regeneration and Ford's Dagenham plant.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sofa or armchair | £50 | 20–30 min | Priced per item because a single sofa does not need a full van booked against it. |
| Bed frame and mattress | £55 | 20–30 min | Covers dismantling a divan or frame and carrying the mattress separately, since the two are usually collected together. |
| Wardrobe or set of drawers | £45 | 20–30 min | Most flat-pack wardrobes have to be part-dismantled to clear a stairwell, which is why this sits above a loose item. |
| Dining table and up to 4 chairs | £60 | 30 min | Table legs are usually unscrewed to get the piece down a narrow London staircase. |
| Second item on the same visit | £30 each | Added to visit | One call-out, one carry route surveyed — each extra piece only adds the carrying time, not a second job. |
| Same-day booking (2+ items) | £90 | Within hours | A fixed same-day rate for two or more bulky items, cheaper per item than booking two single collections. |
Domestic prices are the total you pay. Landlord and letting-agent invoices are quoted plus VAT at 20%. Bulky items are priced per piece, not by volume, because carrying time — not tip weight — is what a single wardrobe or sofa actually costs. Permits, bay suspensions, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge are itemised where they apply.
Working in Barking and Dagenham
What our crews walk into in Barking and Dagenham is becontree cottage-estate houses with gardens, post-war maisonettes and new barking riverside apartments, and the mix changes street by street — Barking (IG11), Becontree (RM9) and Chadwell Heath (RM6) each behave differently on the day.
Parking is the job before the job here: wide estate roads and driveways make van access easy; barking town centre has controlled bays and a busy one-way loop. Locally that means town-centre one-way loop with timed loading; riverside blocks need booked lifts and wide estate roads with kerbside parking and level front paths — straightforward for a luton. Barking and Dagenham sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
Flats above shops and walk-up conversions are common across Barking and Dagenham, and a bulky item stuck on a landing is a fire-escape and insurance problem for the managing agent, not just an inconvenience. We carry from the room it is in, not from the kerb, so nothing sits in a communal stairwell waiting for London Borough of Barking and Dagenham to arrive.
Why it looks like this: a fishing and market town transformed by the vast becontree cottage estate of the 1920s, then by ford's arrival in 1931.

£200
Sofa or armchair starts at £50 in Barking and Dagenham, and the ladder runs up to £90 for the largest job on the table above. The item and the carry, not the tip weight. A wardrobe down two flights with a turn in the stairwell costs more in crew time than the same wardrobe from a ground-floor flat. The borough is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on — only ULEZ, which our vans are compliant with.
We cover the whole borough: IG11, RM10, RM6, RM7, RM8 and RM9. On the ground that includes Barking, Becontree, Chadwell Heath, Dagenham and Dagenham East and Rush Green.
Next-day across every borough, with same-day slots for two or more items booked before mid-morning. East London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Wide estate roads and driveways make van access easy; Barking town centre has controlled bays and a busy one-way loop. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Barking and Dagenham and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. Becontree cottage-estate houses with gardens, post-war maisonettes and new Barking Riverside apartments is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.
Registered waste carrier issuing a transfer note for every collection; items suitable for reuse are logged and passed to a London reuse partner with a receipt rather than tipped. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Barking and Dagenham tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
One or two crew depending on the item — a sofa or mattress needs two people on a London staircase regardless of how light the piece is. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Barking and Dagenham postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Items containing refrigerant gas — fridges, freezers and air-conditioning units — quoted under our fridge and freezer disposal service instead, Pianos and safes, which need specialist lifting equipment and are quoted separately and Items contaminated with bodily fluids or pest infestation, which are handled as a hazardous or biohazard collection. If something on that list turns up in Barking and Dagenham, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

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.
Dara and the team did a great job - cleaned thoroughly. They were there early and ensured all rubbish was carefully removed afterwards. Would recommend.
Amazing service. They dismantled and removed and old running machine for me. It was very heavy. They were very careful of my mosaic floors on the hall. Very easy to use. They were very responsive to book. Arrived promptly and were fast and efficient. I recommend them.
