Overview
Rubbish removal in Peckham SE15, explained
Booked mostly by social-housing-led households around Peckham Rye, rubbish removal here covers supply-free fitting from £45. With 72% of Peckham's 24,172 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SE15 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How rubbish removal works in Peckham
Five steps, the same on every SE15 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — with 46% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Photograph the pile
A couple of photos are enough for a volume price; nobody has to be on site to be quoted.
Step 2
Fixed price, then a slot
Volume, tip charge and any permit are itemised in one figure before the van is booked.
Step 3
Carry and load
Crew carry from wherever it sits — flat, garden, communal bin store or garage.
Step 4
Split for recycling
Metal, WEEE, wood and textiles are separated on the van rather than tipped as one load.
Step 5
Paperwork same day
A waste transfer note with the site, weight and date arrives by email.
Why choose us
Why Peckham customers book us
What follows is specific to Peckham: its walls, its access and the paperwork Southwark agents ask for.
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. Rye Lane bus gates, LTN filters and terraced streets with permit bays.
Booked around your day
Most London collections are covered within 48 hours, with same-day slots usually available before 10am. Peckham Rye (Overground, Thameslink) is the nearest station, so a SE15 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Peckham walls, not generic walls
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SE15, often with surface conduit, which is what a 72% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Peckham actually produces in SE15, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Peckham gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, and with 23% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Fixed prices
Rubbish removal prices in Peckham
Fixed prices for SE15 and the rest of Southwark. Volume sets the price and access moves it: stairs above the second floor without a lift, red-route frontages and permit-only bays are the three London variables.
| 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. |

Scope
What's included in Peckham
The same scope across SE15, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Southwark bookings: two crew and all the carrying — bags and items do not need moving to the kerb first, allowing for the 23% of SE15 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Licensed disposal with a waste transfer note emailed the same day, noted on the Peckham job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- In Peckham: segregation for recycling and reuse before anything reaches residual waste, timed against the walk in from Peckham Rye (Overground, Thameslink)
- On SE15 jobs: a sweep-up of the collection point before the crew leaves, agreed on the doorstep in Peckham before anything is unpacked
Not included
- Hazardous waste — paint, solvents, gas bottles, asbestos and clinical waste need a specialist carrier, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE15
- Anything fixed to the building: kitchen units, boilers and radiators are quoted as a strip-out, outside the fixed price on Peckham bookings
- Loads from unsafe access — a cellar or loft that has not been surveyed, handled by London Borough of Southwark or a specialist contractor instead

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 →

Peckham SE15 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Peckham — the numbers that actually change a rubbish removal quote.
24,172 households sit inside the SE15 neighbourhood covering Peckham. The build is Georgian and early Victorian, the tenure profile social-housing-led, and 72% of those homes are flats.
The social-housing-led mix here (31% owned, 23% privately rented) means a SE15 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SE15, often with surface conduit, which is what a 72% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Peckham actually produces behind the plaster in SE15. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Peckham gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, and with 23% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the fault we are called back to undo.
Rye Lane's markets, rooftop bars and Georgian terraces around Peckham Rye. That character decides the practical detail of rubbish removal here far more than the borough boundary does. Peckham sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: rye Lane bus gates, LTN filters and terraced streets with permit bays. Peckham Rye (Overground, Thameslink) is the nearest station, 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.
