Merton · SW19 · Bulky waste collection
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Wimbledon Park fitters · Fixed written pricesWimbledon Park SW19 is a regular stop on our Merton round. The park and lake below the tennis grounds, with Edwardian streets on the slope down to Southfields, so bulky waste collection here is quoted on the street the job is on — from £50, in writing, with insured fitters, every fixing torqued, and the flat-pack packaging taken away.
Overview
This page prices bulky waste collection for Wimbledon Park SW19 specifically: mainly Edwardian stock, 30% privately rented and 3,512 households in total. Work starts at £50, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Merton 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
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. Championships fortnight parking bans, steep hill streets and shared side entrances to the maisonettes.
Next-day across every borough, with same-day slots for two or more items booked before mid-morning. Wimbledon Park (District) is the nearest station, so a SW19 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect solid London stock brick in SW19, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and with 30% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in SW19, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in SW19, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — the pattern behind 3,512 households inside the SW19 neighbourhood.
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.
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. |

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 →
