Crew sized to the job
Two crew and a 3.5-tonne Luton as standard; heavy rubble loads run below the legal weight limit rather than filling the space. Very tight parking, narrow terraced streets and flats up two to four flights without lifts.

Overview

How it works
Step 1
A couple of photos are enough for a volume price; nobody has to be on site to be quoted.
Step 2
Volume, tip charge and any permit are itemised in one figure before the van is booked.
Step 3
Crew carry from wherever it sits — flat, garden, communal bin store or garage.
Step 4
Metal, WEEE, wood and textiles are separated on the van rather than tipped as one load.
Step 5
A waste transfer note with the site, weight and date arrives by email.
Why choose us
Two crew and a 3.5-tonne Luton as standard; heavy rubble loads run below the legal weight limit rather than filling the space. Very tight parking, narrow terraced streets and flats up two to four flights without lifts.
Most London collections are covered within 48 hours, with same-day slots usually available before 10am. West Hampstead (Jubilee, Overground, Thameslink) is the nearest station, so a NW6 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect lath and plaster over timber studs in West Hampstead, with solid brick on the party and external walls — which is what a 88% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Hampstead actually produces in NW6, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel, over a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — which is why London Borough of Camden kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
We are a registered upper-tier waste carrier and issue a waste transfer note for every collection — the document that protects you from a fly-tipping fine if your waste is later found dumped.
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. |

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 →

Walk West Hampstead from West End Lane outwards and the mainly Victorian pattern is obvious: 88% of the 4,309 households in NW6 live in flats, 12% in houses.
49% of households rent privately and 30% own, which is why rubbish removal demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
West Hampstead substrates run to lath and plaster over timber studs in West Hampstead, with solid brick on the party and external walls — which is what a 88% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Hampstead actually produces. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because which crumbles the key and drops the panel, over a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — which is why London Borough of Camden kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the mistake that costs a NW6 customer twice.
Anyone who knows West Hampstead knows the pattern near West End Lane: three stations, a busy high street and streets of red-brick Victorian conversions. We plan the NW6 visit around it. West Hampstead sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Very tight parking, narrow terraced streets and flats up two to four flights without lifts. Nearest station is West Hampstead (Jubilee, Overground, Thameslink), and two crew and a 3.5-tonne Luton as standard; heavy rubble loads run below the legal weight limit rather than filling the space.
