House Clearance Merton is committed to simple, transparent pricing for every house clearance and rubbish removal job. Whether you need a single bulky item taken away from a flat in Morden or a full house clearance in Wimbledon, you will always know your waste collection cost before we start. We explain our charges in plain language, confirm them in advance, and only proceed once you are happy.
Our pricing is based on how much space your items take up in our vehicles, measured in cubic yards or as a portion of a full load. This means you only pay for the volume of rubbish we remove, not for time spent in traffic or how many stairs we climb. For typical Merton properties, from terraced homes near Colliers Wood to family houses in Raynes Park, this load-based approach keeps rubbish removal prices clear and consistent.
We use a straightforward load-based or cubic yard system so that you can easily estimate your waste collection cost. One cubic yard is about the size of a standard household washing machine. Our vans hold multiple cubic yards, and we charge according to how much of the vehicle is filled with your unwanted items.
Before any work begins, our team will:
Assess the volume of items you want removed, either from photos you send or by viewing them on site.
Confirm the estimated load size in cubic yards or as a fraction of a full load.
Give you a full price that includes labour, transport and standard disposal fees.
If the actual volume on the day is less than expected, we reduce the price accordingly. If it is more, we discuss this with you before proceeding. There are no hidden extras and no unexpected add-ons. You stay in control of the cost from start to finish.
Our rubbish removal prices are calculated on the space your items occupy in our van. This method works well for all kinds of properties in Merton, from compact studio flats near South Wimbledon station to larger semi-detached houses around Mitcham and Wimbledon Chase.
Load-based pricing is ideal when you have a mixture of furniture, bags, boxes and general household waste that would be hard to count item by item. By using cubic yard measurements, we can give you a clear and predictable waste collection cost, whether we are clearing a single room or an entire property.
Factors that influence the final price include:
The total volume of rubbish or furniture, measured in cubic yards.
The type of waste, for example general household items, bulky furniture, garden waste or light renovation debris.
Any special items that require extra handling or disposal, such as mattresses or fridges, which may attract an additional charge due to recycling requirements.
We always explain these factors clearly so you know exactly what you are paying for.
To help you understand typical rubbish removal prices and waste collection costs, here are some example jobs we regularly handle across Merton. These are illustrative only, but they show how our load-based pricing applies in real situations.
A landlord needed to clear a one-bedroom rental flat close to Wimbledon town centre after a long tenancy. Items included a double bed, mattress, small sofa, wardrobe, chest of drawers, kitchenware, and around 10 bags of mixed rubbish and clothing. The total volume filled roughly half of our van. Using our cubic yard pricing, this counted as a half-load. We confirmed the cost in advance and completed the clearance in one visit, allowing the property to be cleaned and re-let quickly.
A group of students moving out of a shared flat near Colliers Wood left behind a tired sofa, a broken desk, a small dining table, chairs, and several bin bags of unwanted items. This amounted to a small load, around a quarter of our van capacity. Under our load-based system, the waste collection cost was kept low because they only paid for the space used. The collection was arranged for a specific time slot to fit around their moving schedule.
A family in Raynes Park needed a partial clearance after renovating their three-bedroom house. Items included old wardrobes, a dismantled bed frame, a three-seater sofa, a coffee table, carpets from two rooms, and several bags of general rubbish. Altogether the volume was close to a three-quarter load. We assessed the items during a short visit, agreed the price on a load-based basis, and completed removal the next day, keeping the driveway clear and minimising disruption.
A homeowner in Morden requested clearance of an overfilled shed and garden area. Contents included broken garden furniture, old tools, paint tins, plant pots, and mixed garden waste. The total volume came to around one third of a load. Because some items required recycling at specialist facilities, we outlined these disposal elements in the quote so the overall rubbish removal price was fully transparent.
Your quoted price covers everything needed to complete the job professionally and safely. This includes:
Two-person team to load and carry items from anywhere on the property, including lofts, basements and upper floors.
Travel time and fuel for our vehicles, whether we collect from a busy street near Wimbledon station or a quieter residential road in Mitcham.
Responsible disposal and recycling of your waste at approved facilities.
Basic dismantling of larger furniture where needed, such as wardrobes, beds and shelving units.
We also provide guidance on items that we cannot take, such as certain hazardous materials, and help you find suitable alternatives where possible.

There is no charge for our quotations and no pressure to book. You are free to compare our rubbish removal prices and waste collection costs with other providers in the area. If you decide to go ahead, we can often schedule your collection at a time that suits your work or family commitments, including busy weekday evenings or weekends in central Merton locations.
Merton includes a wide variety of property types, from compact converted flats near Wimbledon and South Wimbledon to wider family homes in Raynes Park, Morden and Mitcham. Our flexible, load-based pricing works well across all of these because you only pay for the amount of rubbish we actually remove. Whether you have a single bulky item in a high-rise block or a full house clearance in a larger suburban property, the same simple rules apply.
