Fixed prices

Shed clearance and removal prices in City of London

Fixed prices for City of London, agreed before the crew is booked. Size and material, whether the base comes out, and the carry distance from the garden to the van.

Where the Congestion Charge, ULEZ and permit-only frontages apply in City of London, they are itemised rather than rolled into an hourly rate.
Shed clearance and removal price guide for City of London
JobFromTypical timeWhat sets the price
Clear the contents only£1201 hrTools, pots, bikes and bagged garden waste emptied out, with the structure left standing.
Small timber shed, 6x4 to 8x6, dismantled and taken£2201–2 hrsPanels 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£3802–4 hrsHeavier framing, a felted roof and often a timber base, which doubles both the dismantling and the load.
Metal or plastic shed removal£2401–2 hrsSheet 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£1801–2 hrsInert waste is weighed in, and a slab base can outweigh the shed that stood on it.
Shed removal with garden clearance£420Half dayOne 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 City of London

Why City of London is not a generic London job

St Paul's Cathedral is the landmark; the working detail below is what actually changes the price and the method in City of London.

The housing stock

The stock in City of London is barbican and golden lane flats, converted counting houses and a handful of new riverside blocks, and the mix changes street by street — Aldgate (EC3), Bank and Cornhill (EC3) and Barbican (EC2) each behave differently on the day.

Access, parking and permits

Parking is the job before the job here: congestion charge and ulez, ring-of-steel camera controls, almost no free kerb — loading bays must be booked around office hours. Locally that means aldgate gyratory red routes, tower-block concierge sign-in and lift booking and bank junction is closed to most traffic on weekdays — early-morning or weekend access only. Part of City of London sits inside the Congestion Charge zone, so the charge is quoted as its own line rather than hidden in the labour rate.

City of London Corporation rules

City of London Corporation runs bulky-waste collections and a reuse and recycling centre, and for one or two items in City of London 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.

How the borough got this way

City of London took its present shape because roman londinium's walled city, rebuilt after the 1666 fire and again after the blitz, now layered with towers around bishopsgate.

Scope

What's included in City of London

The same scope everywhere in the borough, whether the job is in Aldgate or St Paul's.

Included in the price

  • Two crew who dismantle by hand — no cutting corners with a saw through a neighbour's fence line
  • Contents cleared first, sorted for reuse, recycling and residual waste before the structure comes down
  • Timber, felt, sheet metal, plastic and glazing separated for the correct recycling stream
  • Carry out through the house, side return or communal path with floor protection down

Not included

  • 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
  • Removing shared boundary fencing or anything belonging to a neighbouring property

Local questions

Shed clearance and removal in City of London — your questions

  • How much does a shed clearance cost in City of London?

    Clear the contents only starts at £120 in City of London, 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. Part of the borough is inside the Congestion Charge zone, so a £15 daily charge is added as its own line when the job falls inside the charging hours.

  • Which City of London postcodes do you cover?

    We cover the whole borough: E1, EC1, EC2, EC3 and EC4. On the ground that includes Aldgate, Bank and Cornhill, Barbican, Blackfriars, Clerkenwell and Farringdon.

  • How quickly can you get to City of London?

    Same-week across every borough, and next-day on contents-only clears where a garden has to be presentable for a viewing. Central London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.

  • What about parking and permits in City of London?

    Congestion Charge and ULEZ, ring-of-steel camera controls, almost no free kerb — loading bays must be booked around office hours. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with City of London Corporation and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.

  • Do you work in City of London flats and blocks with no lift?

    Yes. Barbican and Golden Lane flats, converted counting houses and a handful of new riverside blocks 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.

  • Are you insured and licensed for work in City of London?

    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 City of London Corporation tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.

  • Who turns up, and with what?

    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 City of London postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.

  • What is not included?

    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 City of London, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.
