How it works
- STEP 1
Send photographs
Snap the retail waste collection at your Lewisham address and send it on WhatsApp. Photographs are the single biggest factor in quote accuracy — the more you send, the tighter the fixed price.
- STEP 2
Receive a fixed price
We assess volume, weight and access, then confirm a written figure covering the agreed labour, transport and disposal requirements for your collection in Lewisham. Any change in scope is discussed before work continues.
- STEP 3
Choose your slot
Same-day, next-day, weekend and evening windows are offered subject to vehicle availability. You get a confirmed window rather than an all-day wait.
- STEP 4
We load and clear
The crew arrives with the correct vehicle, loads everything by hand, and sweeps up. The collected retail waste collection from Lewisham is weighed and documented at a licensed facility afterwards.
What affects the price
Retail Waste Collection starts from £120. Your fixed price is confirmed once we have seen photographs.
- Location — travel beyond the included mileage is charged at the vehicle rate
- Volume — how much of the van the load actually fills
- Weight — dense material such as rubble, soil and concrete costs more at the gate
- Waste type — recycling routes are cheaper than general disposal
- Access — stairs, long carries and restricted parking add labour time
- Timing — weekend, evening and emergency slots carry an uplift

Retail Waste Collection FAQs
Can you collect outside trading hours?
Yes. Early-morning and post-close collections are standard for Lewisham retail sites — it is usually the only workable window.
Do you provide waste transfer notes?
Every commercial collection is documented. Keep them: they are what evidences your duty of care if the Environment Agency asks.
How much does retail waste collection cost in Lewisham?
Retail Waste Collection in Lewisham starts from £120. The final figure depends on volume, weight and access. Send photographs on WhatsApp and we confirm a fixed price rather than an hourly guess.
Can you handle difficult access?
Yes. Stairs, lifts, long carries, narrow lanes and permit bays are all workable at Lewisham properties — we just need to know in advance so the right crew and vehicle are sent.
Why do you ask for photographs?
Because guessing is how customers get stung. Photographs let us size the Lewisham vehicle, crew and disposal route correctly, so the price we quote for your retail waste collection is the price you pay.
What happens to the waste after collection?
It goes to a licensed transfer station where it is separated. Recoverable material from Lewisham collections is recycled, and only the residual fraction goes to final disposal.
Do I need to be there?
Not always. If the retail waste collection is accessible from outside at the Lewisham property, we can collect with photographs, written instructions and payment agreed in advance.
Which Lewisham postcodes do you cover for retail waste collection?
Yes. Our retail waste collection covers the whole of Lewisham, including the SE6 postcode district around the town centre and the surrounding area. We also collect from neighbouring Catford (0.5 miles), Bromley (2.9 miles) and Greenwich (3.7 miles) — distances are straight-line from Lewisham. Send your postcode with photos on WhatsApp and we will confirm the fixed price before booking.

Moving as well as clearing in Lewisham?
Clearances often sit either side of a move. If you need the furniture that is staying taken to a new address in Lewisham, that is a removals job rather than a waste job — and it is priced separately.
