Crew sized to the job

Overview
Rubbish removal in Ealing W5 is a fixed-price visit for renter-heavy homes in Ealing, most of them mainly Victorian. 18,588 households sit inside this W5 patch, 63% of them flats, so we quote on access near Ealing Studios and Walpole Park rather than a London average.
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. Broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks.
Most London collections are covered within 48 hours, with same-day slots usually available before 10am. Ealing Broadway (Elizabeth line, Central, District) is the nearest station, so a W5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — where 45% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in W5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in W5, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — the pattern behind 18,588 households inside the W5 neighbourhood.
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 →
