Overview
This page prices bulky waste collection for Greenwich Peninsula SE10 specifically: recent new-build stock, 25% privately rented and 3,769 households in total. Work starts at £50, fixed in writing, with parking and Royal Borough of Greenwich permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
A photo of each item and which room or floor it is on is enough for a fixed per-item price.
Step 2
The price covers carrying the item out of the property; you never have to move it yourself.
Step 3
Next-day is standard; same-day is available for two or more items booked before mid-morning.
Step 4
Sound furniture is assessed for reuse before it is loaded as waste, which is often the fastest way to move it on anyway.
Step 5
Emailed the same day, whichever route the item took.
Why choose us
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.
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. Event-day congestion, estate permits and strict lift-booking windows in every block.
Next-day across every borough, with same-day slots for two or more items booked before mid-morning. North Greenwich (Jubilee) is the nearest station, so a SE10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit, measured on the walk in from North Greenwich (Jubilee) rather than assumed from a map in SE10, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Greenwich Peninsula gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, which is what a 78% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Greenwich Peninsula actually produces.
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%.

Scope
The guys arrived prompt at 9 am . Sorry I’m rubbish at names but I remember the one guys initials were AB . He really worked hard . Both guys were very polite and were happy to pop back up the stairs to finish dusting the bedrooms surfaces that were missed . Not one moan… Read in full →
The cleaners Constantin and arrived in time and never stopped until the work was completed to the best of their ability. I would recommend a more upgraded carpet cleaner as I was hoping for a hot steam cleaner to penetrate areas or heavy foot traffic on the carpet. They never gave up until the look… Read in full →

Working in Greenwich Peninsula
In Greenwich Peninsula (SE10) the split is 78% flats to 22% houses over 3,769 households, and the stock is recent new-build.
Because 25% of Greenwich Peninsula is privately rented and 31% socially rented, a lot of SE10 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, measured on the walk in from North Greenwich (Jubilee) rather than assumed from a map, so the fixing that matters in Greenwich Peninsula is chosen on site — the usual failure here is Greenwich Peninsula gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, which is what a 78% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Greenwich Peninsula actually produces.
The O2, the cable car and a new district of towers on the old gasworks. That character decides the practical detail of bulky waste collection here far more than the borough boundary does. Greenwich Peninsula is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, event-day congestion, estate permits and strict lift-booking windows in every block — one reason 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. Fitters travelling in use North Greenwich (Jubilee).
