London rubbish removal · East London
Local rubbish removal for Havering and its 9 covered areas. London's most suburban edge — Romford's market and nightlife, Hornchurch's semis and green belt beyond Upminster.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Boot-load of mixed rubbish | £40 | 15–30 min | Priced for a small car boot's worth — bin bags, packaging and small offcuts that do not justify a van visit. |
| Quarter-load (approx. 3 cubic yards) | £95 | 30–60 min | Charged on the volume the rubbish takes in the van, weighed against the transfer station's gate rate. |
| Half-load (approx. 6 cubic yards) | £165 | 45–90 min | A typical loft, garage or shed's worth of mixed general waste, loaded by hand from wherever it sits. |
| Full Luton load (approx. 12 cubic yards) | £300 | 1.5–3 hrs | Full van and the transfer-station charge, with the waste transfer note issued the same day. |
| Two-van full load | £560 | 3–5 hrs | Where one van cannot take the volume in a single trip; two crews run in parallel rather than one van doing two runs. |
| Rubbish removal with same-day booking | +£25 | Within hours | A dispatch premium for slotting a same-day job between booked collections rather than a next-day charge. |
Domestic prices are the total you pay. Landlord and letting-agent invoices are quoted plus VAT at 20%. Rubbish is priced by volume in the van, not by weight or by the hour, and the figure is confirmed before the crew is booked. Where a permit, bay suspension, ULEZ or the Congestion Charge applies it is itemised in the written quote.
Working in Havering
What our crews walk into in Havering is interwar and post-war semis, bungalows in upminster and new flats around romford station, and the mix changes street by street — Collier Row (RM5), Cranham (RM14) and Elm Park (RM12) each behave differently on the day.
Parking is the job before the job here: driveways and wide roads throughout; only romford town centre needs bay suspensions. Locally that means wide suburban roads, driveways and easy kerbside loading and the easiest access in london — wide roads, drives and level thresholds. Havering sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
London Borough of Havering offers a bulky-waste collection for Havering residents, but slots commonly run one to three weeks out and most boroughs cap the number of items per booking. Where a load has to be gone this week — a tenancy end, a clear-before-viewing, a skip that would need a permit — that is the gap we fill under our own waste carrier licence.
Essex market towns and farmland that became commuter suburbia after the LMS and District lines arrived. That history is why Havering property behaves the way it does today.

Boot-load of mixed rubbish starts at £40 in Havering, and the ladder runs up to +£25 for the largest job on the table above. Volume in the van is the main driver. Walk-up flats above the second floor with no lift, red-route frontages and permit-only bays are what add crew time to an otherwise identical load. The borough is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on — only ULEZ, which our vans are compliant with.
We cover the whole borough: RM1, RM11, RM12, RM13, RM14, RM2, RM3, RM5 and RM7. On the ground that includes Collier Row, Cranham, Elm Park, Gidea Park, Harold Wood and Harold Hill and Hornchurch.
Next-day slots are standard across every borough, and same-day collection is usually available if booked before mid-morning. East London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Driveways and wide roads throughout; only Romford town centre needs bay suspensions. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Havering and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. Interwar and post-war semis, bungalows in Upminster and new flats around Romford station is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.
Registered upper-tier waste carrier with the Environment Agency. A waste transfer note is issued for every collection, which is the document that protects you if rubbish is later found fly-tipped — liability for the waste otherwise sits with whoever produced it, not the person who took it away. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Havering tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
One person and a car for boot-loads; two crew and a 3.5-tonne Luton for anything from a quarter-load upward. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Havering postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Hazardous waste — paint, solvents, gas bottles, asbestos and clinical waste — which needs a specialist licensed carrier, Anything fixed to the building, such as kitchen units still plumbed in or a fitted bathroom suite and Trade waste from a registered business, which is quoted separately with a commercial waste transfer note. If something on that list turns up in Havering, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

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 →
Didn't clear rubbish from under the bed and some marks on walls look like they haven't been attempted at removing. Other than that was a good job considering the state of the flat.
Work fast and neat, even with the huge load of rubbish that was in the house from the previous owners.
