London rubbish disposal · North London
We work in Barnet every week — london's largest borough by population — semi-detached suburbia, hampstead garden suburb and green belt at the top. Rubbish disposal is priced against that reality, not a national average.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single item collection | £45 | 20–40 min | One mattress, sofa or appliance carried out and weighed in at a licensed transfer station. |
| Minimum load (approx. 1.5 cubic yards) | £95 | 20–30 min | A few bags and a couple of items — priced on the space taken, not on a call-out fee. |
| Quarter-load (approx. 3 cubic yards) | £120 | 30–60 min | The usual size for a flat clear-down: bagged waste, a bed frame and some boxes. |
| Half-load (approx. 6 cubic yards) | £200 | 1–2 hrs | A garage or loft clear-down, still one van and two crew. |
| Full Luton load (approx. 12 cubic yards) | £380 | 2–4 hrs | Full van, two crew, the transfer-station charge and the waste transfer note included. |
| Garden or builders' waste, per cubic yard | £70 | By volume | Soil, rubble and hardcore are capped by weight rather than space — heavy loads cost more per yard. |
Domestic prices are the total you pay. Commercial and landlord invoices are quoted plus VAT at 20%. Permits, bay suspensions, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge, where they apply, are itemised in the written quote before the crew is booked.
Working in Barnet
What our crews walk into in Barnet is 1930s semis with bay windows, mock-tudor detached houses, garden-suburb arts and crafts homes and new towers at colindale, and the mix changes street by street — Colindale (NW9), East Finchley (N2) and Finchley (N3) each behave differently on the day.
Parking is the job before the job here: mostly driveway parking, but golders green and finchley central have tight cpzs and busy a-road frontages.
Fly-tipping enforcement in Barnet follows the householder, not whoever took the bags. London Borough of Barnet traces waste back to the address it came from.
Barnet took its present shape because coaching villages along the great north road, filled in by metroland semis after the northern line arrived in the 1930s.

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 →
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.
Work fast and neat, even with the huge load of rubbish that was in the house from the previous owners.
