Whether you’re dealing with a cluttered spare room, clearing out after a house move, or finally tackling that pile of broken furniture in the garden, we can help. Our two-person crews collect mixed junk from anywhere on your property – inside or out – and take it away the same day.
There’s no need to sort, bag, or move anything yourself. Point us to what needs to go, and we’ll do the rest. We work across all London boroughs, from basement flats in Islington to detached houses in Bromley, and we’re used to navigating narrow hallways, tight staircases, and limited parking.
As a licensed waste carrier, we’re legally required to dispose of your items responsibly – and we take that seriously. What we collect is sorted at licensed facilities and recycled or reused wherever possible, with landfill as a last resort, and you’ll receive a waste transfer note as proof of proper disposal.

We send a team so heavy items like sofas and fridges are no problem

We’ll send you a clear price with no hidden charges. If it works for you, pick a collection time – same-day slots are often available.
We collect, load, and dispose of everything
Our crew arrives at the agreed time, loads everything onto the van, and leaves your space clean and clear. You’ll receive a waste transfer note by email.
We take almost anything that isn’t hazardous. Here’s what we most commonly clear:
Sofas, beds, mattresses, wardrobes, tables, chairs, desks, bookshelves, and anything else taking up space. We dismantle flat-pack furniture on site if needed.
Fridges, freezers, washing machines, cookers, TVs, computers, and small electricals. Fridges are degassed at an approved facility before recycling.
Shed contents, old garden furniture, broken fencing, soil, rubble, plant pots, and general garden clutter. We can also dismantle sheds and decking.
Plasterboard, tiles, timber, bathroom suites, kitchen units, carpet, and other materials left over from building work or home improvements.
Desks, filing cabinets, IT equipment, shop fittings, and general office clutter. We can work outside business hours to avoid disruption.
Boxes of old paperwork, toys, clothing, sports equipment, decorations – the kind of accumulated stuff that builds up over years. No need to sort it first.
We charge based on how much space your items take up in the van, within a weight limit for each load size, not by the number of items. This keeps things simple and predictable.
| Load Size | Typical Items | Price From |
|---|---|---|
| Small household waste | 1 yd³ (1 single item), 0.5 m³, up to 30kg | £45 |
| Average household waste | 4 yd³ (25 bags), 3 m³, up to 250kg | £120 |
| Large household waste | 8 yd³ (40 bags), 6 m³, up to 1,000kg | £200 |
| Domestic & house clearance | 14 yd³ (60 bags), 10 m³, up to 1,500kg | £300 |
| Professional waste collection | 16 yd³ (80 bags), 12 m³, up to 2,000kg | £320 |
| Large household waste | 20 yd³ (100 bags), 14 m³, up to 2,500kg | £340 |
Prices include labour, loading, transport, and disposal. Additional charges may apply for items on upper floors without a lift. We’ll always confirm the final price before starting.
No callbacks, no surprises. Snap a photo of your rubbish, send your postcode, get a fixed price back.

Many London streets have residents’ parking or no frontage. A skip on the road needs a council permit, which takes time to arrange. Our team loads the van and drives away – no permit needed.
Skips sit on the road – you still need to carry everything out yourself. We collect from any room, floor, or garden, including dismantling furniture that won’t fit through doorways.
A skip has to be delivered, filled and collected again. We often have same-day availability, and most collections take under an hour on site.
Skips have restrictions – you can’t put fridges, tyres, or electrical items in most skips. We take mixed loads and sort them at our facility for proper recycling.
If you’re moving house, clearing a deceased relative’s home, or just having a long-overdue declutter, a single collection visit is usually quicker and cheaper than hiring a skip for a week.
