Rubbish Clearance Dulwich provides clear, competitive and fully transparent pricing for all rubbish removal across Dulwich and the surrounding areas. Whether you live in a Victorian terrace near Dulwich Village, a modern flat in East Dulwich, or manage a busy shop on Lordship Lane, our rubbish removal prices are designed to be straightforward and great value.
This page explains exactly how our waste collection costs work, including our load-based and cubic-yard rates, typical example jobs, and how to get a fast, no-obligation free quote.
Our pricing is based on how much rubbish we remove, what type of waste it is, and how easy it is to access. We use a combination of load-based and cubic-yard rates so you only pay for the space your rubbish takes up in our vehicle. There are no hidden extras and all prices are clearly explained before we start work.
Every quote will typically include:
1. Labour for loading your rubbish onto our vehicle
2. Responsible disposal and recycling fees
3. Sweep and tidy of the cleared area
4. All standard transport and fuel costs within our Dulwich service area
If there are any additional costs, such as for heavy waste, specialist items or extra labour due to difficult access, these will always be discussed and confirmed in advance so you can decide before we begin.
For most standard household and office clearances in Dulwich we use load-based pricing. This means you pay according to how full our truck or van is after loading your rubbish.
Typical load-based price bands include:
1. Small load – ideal for a few bulky items such as a mattress, a fridge-freezer or several bags of rubbish from a studio flat in East Dulwich.
2. Medium load – suited to a one-bedroom or small two-bedroom flat clearance near Denmark Hill or North Dulwich station.
3. Large load – perfect for larger house clearances in the tree-lined streets of Dulwich Village or West Dulwich, or for big garage and shed clearances.
Because every job is different, we confirm the exact price once we see the amount and type of waste. Where possible, we can often give a clear price range from your description and photos before we arrive.
For certain types of waste, especially builder’s rubble, soil, bricks, or DIY renovation debris from Dulwich’s many period properties, it can be clearer to work in cubic yards. A cubic yard is a standard volume measurement, roughly the size of a washing machine.
We offer cubic-yard rates for:
1. Construction and renovation waste from loft conversions, kitchen refits and bathroom upgrades in Dulwich’s Victorian and Edwardian homes.
2. Garden waste such as soil, branches, hedge trimmings and old fencing from larger gardens in the Dulwich area.
3. Heavier mixed loads where weight and volume both matter.
Using cubic-yard pricing helps you compare the cost of our rubbish removal directly with alternatives such as hiring a skip, while also benefiting from our labour and same-day collection where available.
To help you estimate your likely waste collection cost in Dulwich, here are some typical example jobs we handle every week.
1. Small Flat or Apartment Clear-Out
A young professional moving out of a one-bedroom flat near East Dulwich station might need us to remove an old sofa, a broken wardrobe, several bags of clothes and general household clutter. This usually falls into a small to medium load band, depending on how much bagged waste there is.
2. Family Home De-Clutter in Dulwich Village
A family in a four-bedroom Victorian terrace near Dulwich Village may want a garage and loft cleared of old furniture, boxes, bikes and toys. This is often a medium to large load, particularly if we are also removing garden waste from the rear garden. Our team manages all loading and sorting on-site.
3. Student or House Share Turnaround
Shared houses around Denmark Hill or Lordship Lane sometimes require quick clearances between tenancies. We regularly remove mattresses, desks, damaged wardrobes, bagged rubbish and kitchen appliances. Pricing is usually medium load based, with discounts available if you have multiple properties cleared on the same day.
4. Shop, Cafe or Office Clearance on Busy Streets
Businesses along Lordship Lane and nearby high streets often need fast, discreet rubbish removal for refits or closures. This might include shelving, counters, display units, office chairs, filing cabinets and packaging waste. We can price by load or cubic yard, depending on the volume and type of materials.
5. Builder’s Waste from Renovation Projects
Many Dulwich properties undergo extensions, loft conversions and kitchen refits. For rubble, tiles, plasterboard, broken bricks and timber offcuts, we usually charge by cubic yard. This allows builders and homeowners to budget clearly against alternative skip hire, with the added benefit of our team doing the heavy lifting.
6. Garden Clearance in Larger Plots
Properties near Dulwich Park and around the leafy residential roads often have sizeable gardens. Garden clearances might include bags of soil, branches, hedge cuttings, old sheds, fencing or children’s play equipment. Depending on the mix of green waste and bulky items, we may combine load-based and cubic-yard pricing for the fairest total cost.
While we aim to keep pricing simple, certain factors can influence your final rubbish removal cost:
1. Type of waste – heavy materials such as rubble, soil and tiles cost more to dispose of than light household waste.
2. Access and parking – tight alleyways, basement flats, upper-floor flats without lifts and restricted parking may require extra labour time.
3. Special items – fridges, freezers, mattresses and some electrical items have specific disposal regulations and may carry surcharges.
4. Urgency – same-day or late-evening clearances in busy Dulwich locations are available and will be priced accordingly.
We will always explain these factors clearly as part of your quote, so that you remain in full control of your budget.
Rubbish Clearance Dulwich offers free quotes for all jobs, with no obligation to go ahead. You can tell us what you need removed, including rough volumes and the property type, and we will estimate the cost based on our standard rubbish removal prices for the Dulwich area.
To provide the most accurate quote, it helps if you can:
1. Describe the rooms or areas to be cleared, such as a loft in a Dulwich Village terrace or a balcony in an East Dulwich flat.
2. List key bulky items such as beds, wardrobes, sofas, appliances or garden furniture.
3. Estimate how many bin bags of smaller waste you have.
4. Mention any access issues, parking restrictions or time limits, especially on busier roads around Lordship Lane or near local schools.
Once we have this information, we will give you a clear price or price range. When our team arrives, they confirm the exact cost before starting. If you decide not to proceed, you will not be charged for the quote.
By combining local knowledge of Dulwich’s housing styles, roads and parking with a transparent load-based and cubic-yard pricing system, we ensure your rubbish removal is both efficient and cost-effective. Our aim is to keep your waste collection cost as low as possible while maintaining high standards of service, responsible disposal and recycling.
