London shed removal · North London
Shed clearance and removal across Barnet, from EN4, EN5 and N11 outwards. London's largest borough by population — semi-detached suburbia, Hampstead Garden Suburb and green belt at the top, and that is what shapes every quote we write here.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clear the contents only | £120 | 1 hr | Tools, pots, bikes and bagged garden waste emptied out, with the structure left standing. |
| Small timber shed, 6x4 to 8x6, dismantled and taken | £220 | 1–2 hrs | Panels come apart in the garden, and the carry through the house or a side return is the real work in a London terrace. |
| Large timber shed or workshop, 10x8 upward | £380 | 2–4 hrs | Heavier framing, a felted roof and often a timber base, which doubles both the dismantling and the load. |
| Metal or plastic shed removal | £240 | 1–2 hrs | Sheet metal and plastic go to separate recycling streams, and rusted fixings usually have to be cut rather than undone. |
| Concrete or paving-slab base broken out | £180 | 1–2 hrs | Inert waste is weighed in, and a slab base can outweigh the shed that stood on it. |
| Shed removal with garden clearance | £420 | Half day | One visit, one crew and one transfer note where the shed, the overgrowth and the old decking all go together. |

Domestic prices are the total you pay; landlord, agent and commercial invoices are plus VAT at 20%. Dismantling, the carry through the property, licensed disposal and the transfer note are included. Where a bay suspension, permit, ULEZ or the Congestion Charge applies it is itemised in the written quote.
Working in Barnet
The stock 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.
On the ground, mostly driveway parking, but golders green and finchley central have tight cpzs and busy a-road frontages. Locally that means every new block requires booked goods lifts and loading bays; estate roads are gated and narrower terraced streets near the station with permit bays; driveways further out. Barnet sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
London Borough of Barnet runs bulky-waste collections and a reuse and recycling centre, and for one or two items in Barnet that is a fair option. It stops being useful on size limits, same-week deadlines and anything lifted out of a commercial unit or a communal area — those are the loads we take, under our waste carrier licence, with a transfer note issued on the day.
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.
Scope
Method
Step 1
Size, material, roof type and how we reach the garden. Rear-garden access through the house is normal in London and priced in.
Step 2
The quote says whether the base, the felt and any slabs are included, so there is no second conversation on the day.
Step 3
Contents out and sorted before anything structural moves, with usable tools and bikes set aside for you or a reuse partner.
Step 4
Roof, then panels, then frame and floor — kept in sections small enough to carry through the property without damage.
Step 5
Loaded, the footprint swept and levelled, and the waste transfer note handed over on site.
Coverage
Also in this borough
Whole-property clears, probate and end-of-tenancy strip-outs, sorted room by room.

Natural stone patios and timber or composite decking cleaned at the right pressure for each.
Clear the contents only starts at £120 in Barnet, and the ladder runs up to £420 for the largest job on the table above. Size and material, whether the base comes out, and the carry distance from the garden to the van. A rear garden reached only through the hallway costs more than the same shed on a driveway. 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: EN4, EN5, N11, N12, N14, N2, N20, N3, NW11 and NW4 and the rest of the Barnet outward codes. On the ground that includes Colindale, East Finchley, Finchley, Friern Barnet and New Southgate, Golders Green and Hendon.
Same-week across every borough, and next-day on contents-only clears where a garden has to be presentable for a viewing. North London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Mostly driveway parking, but Golders Green and Finchley Central have tight CPZs and busy A-road frontages. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Barnet and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. 1930s semis with bay windows, mock-Tudor detached houses, garden-suburb Arts and Crafts homes and new towers at Colindale 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 waste carrier. Shed timber goes to a wood recycling facility, felt and mixed roofing to residual treatment, sheet metal to a scrap processor and any slab base to inert aggregate recycling, with a transfer note issued for every load. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Barnet tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
Two crew and a Luton on a standard timber shed; three crew where the shed is a workshop size, the base is concrete or the only route out is through the house. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Barnet postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Asbestos cement roof sheets, which are common on older London sheds and need a licensed contractor, Disconnecting mains electricity or water run out to the shed, which needs a qualified trade and Removing shared boundary fencing or anything belonging to a neighbouring property. If something on that list turns up in Barnet, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

The most professional painting provider. They just finished painting my two bed flat in elephant and castle. Abdula and his colleague did amazing job. Very helpful and informative. They even cleaned the house after the painting
The team was very kind and respectful the whole cleaning and they did a wonderful job! They called and asked if they could come earlier because they finished their first job early, which was a nice surprise. When they arrived, they asked good questions and set expectations on what they were planning to clean. My… Read in full →
Amazing service from these guys. Arrived 15 mins early to start promptly and were done with a 2 bed / 2 bath flat in under 3hrs. Simply amazing. The finished result was out of this world, the kitchen appliances were quite dirty and they were like brand new afterwards including the oven! I cannot recommend… Read in full →
