London shed removal · Central London
Shed clearance and removal across Tower Hamlets, from E1, E14 and E1W outwards. Canary Wharf towers, Docklands water and the East End's Brick Lane and Bethnal Green streets, 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. |

Working in Tower Hamlets
Tower Hamlets is built from high-rise waterfront apartments with concierge, victorian terraces and dense post-war estates, and the mix changes street by street — Bethnal Green (E2), Bow (E3) and Bromley-by-Bow (E3) each behave differently on the day.
On the ground, tower blocks with goods-lift booking, canary wharf estate permits, and cpzs across bethnal green and bow. Locally that means sunday market closures, ltn filters and tower blocks with a single small lift and bow flyover red routes, market-day restrictions and gated conversion estates. Part of Tower Hamlets sits inside the Congestion Charge zone, so the charge is quoted as its own line rather than hidden in the labour rate.
London Borough of Tower Hamlets runs bulky-waste collections and a reuse and recycling centre, and for one or two items in Tower Hamlets 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.
Dockland and rag-trade heartland; the docks closed in the 1980s and the LDDC rebuilt the Isle of Dogs as a financial district. That history is why Tower Hamlets property behaves the way it does today.
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.
Mixed household and bulky waste taken by the load with a transfer note the same day.
Sofas, beds, wardrobes and mattresses collected per item, dismantling included.
Single items, part-loads, garden waste and office strip-outs across the borough.
Sheds, bases and outdoor storage built square, levelled and weather-fixed.
Natural stone patios and timber or composite decking cleaned at the right pressure for each.
Clear the contents only starts at £120 in Tower Hamlets, 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.
We cover the whole borough: E1, E14, E1W, E2, E3 and EC3. On the ground that includes Bethnal Green, Bow, Bromley-by-Bow, Canary Wharf, Isle of Dogs and Limehouse.
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.
Tower blocks with goods-lift booking, Canary Wharf estate permits, and CPZs across Bethnal Green and Bow. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Tower Hamlets and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. High-rise waterfront apartments with concierge, Victorian terraces and dense post-war estates 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 Tower Hamlets 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 Tower Hamlets 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 Tower Hamlets, 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 →
