Southwark · SE24 · Shed clearance and removal
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Herne Hill fitters · Fixed written pricesWe provide shed clearance and removal in Herne Hill SE24 for houses and flats around Brockwell Park and Lido. From £120, quoted in writing before the visit, with 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 Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
Shed clearance and removal in Herne Hill SE24 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Southwark, most of them mainly Victorian. 3,150 households sit inside this SE24 patch, 27% of them flats, so we quote on access near Brockwell Park and Lido rather than a London average.
How it works
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.
Why choose us
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.
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. Railway-bridge height limits on Half Moon Lane and permit-only side streets.
Same-week across every borough, and next-day on contents-only clears where a garden has to be presentable for a viewing. Herne Hill (Thameslink, Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE24 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick, the pattern behind 3,150 households inside the SE24 neighbourhood in SE24, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Herne Hill gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, where 69% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
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. |

Scope
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 →

Working in Herne Hill
In Herne Hill (SE24) the split is 27% flats to 73% houses over 3,150 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
The owner-occupier-led mix here (69% owned, 19% privately rented) means a SE24 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Walls are some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick, the pattern behind 3,150 households inside the SE24 neighbourhood, so the fixing that matters in Herne Hill is chosen on site — the usual failure here is Herne Hill gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, where 69% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Brockwell Park, the velodrome and a compact village of independents. That character decides the practical detail of shed clearance and removal here far more than the borough boundary does. Herne Hill sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
On access, railway-bridge height limits on Half Moon Lane and permit-only side streets — one reason 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. Fitters travelling in use Herne Hill (Thameslink, Southeastern).

Clear the contents only starts at £120 in Herne Hill across SE24, with this being London Borough of Southwark territory, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Size and material, whether the base comes out on the Herne Hill rounds, with a median age of 41 in this neighbourhood, 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 on SE24 jobs, with 3,150 households on this patch.

5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on Southwark bookings, with a median age of 41 in this neighbourhood. With 27% of homes in Herne Hill being flats, we plan the route up front.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in across SE24. With 27% of Herne Hill homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on the streets near Brockwell Park and Lido, with 12% social-rented stock nearby — and this being a short walk from Herne Hill (Thameslink, Southeastern), so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Railway-bridge height limits on Half Moon Lane and permit-only side streets for Herne Hill (SE24) addresses. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Southwark it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on the streets near Brockwell Park and Lido — and Brockwell Park and Lido a few streets away, with 19% of SE24 homes being privately rented.
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 in this 27% flats neighbourhood, with a median age of 41 in this neighbourhood — and 69% owner-occupation locally, with a transfer note issued for every load. That paperwork is what most Southwark letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat for Herne Hill (SE24) addresses, with this being London Borough of Southwark territory.
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; Paint, creosote, weedkiller and gas bottles found inside on Southwark bookings, with 73% of Herne Hill homes being houses — and 3,150 households on this patch, which need a hazardous-waste carrier. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Herne Hill SE24 price you agree is the price you pay on the Herne Hill rounds, with Brockwell Park and Lido a few streets away.
