What's included in rubbish removal in Bexleyheath and Old Bexley?

Rubbish removal in Bexleyheath and Old Bexley with RLE Waste Clearance includes a crew of two to do the lifting, the loading, the transport and the disposal, and you pay for the share of the truck your rubbish takes. Fridges, tyres, monitors and a few other items are charged on top, as set out on our pricing page.

There are 13 load sizes, from one cubic yard to a full 15 cubic yard truck. Most jobs here are lofts, garages and sheds in long-owned semis, and garden clear-outs on Old Bexley's bigger plots. Send photos to 07534 244774 or call 020 8611 2586, and you'll have the price before we book a day. Payment is on completion by card, cash, bank transfer or company cheque, with a waste transfer note and a receipt.

What does clearing a Bexleyheath semi usually involve?

More than half the homes in Bexleyheath ward are semis, and about 43% are owned outright (external site), going by Census 2021 figures. Long ownership usually goes with a loft that's filled up over the years, a garage that stopped holding a car some time ago and a shed at the end of the garden.

As a rough guide, a packed single garage comes to around half a truck, 7.5 cubic yards, at £180 plus VAT. A loft of boxes, old suitcases and a cot is more often a quarter to a third of the truck. Our pages on loft clearance and garage clearance go into more detail, and house clearance in Bexleyheath explains how a whole house is emptied and priced.

Will the garden bin take an Old Bexley hedge?

Old Bexley has bigger plots than most of the borough. About one home in four in St Mary's and St James ward is detached, more than three times the Bexley average. The council's garden bin costs £87 a year, or £82 by Direct Debit, for 25 fortnightly collections from a 240-litre bin (garden waste service (external site)).

It won't take soil, stones, fences, treated wood, MDF, bagged waste, or branches and logs thicker than 6cm. A hedge cut right back, a heap of turf and the prunings from a big border can all go on our truck in one visit, along with a shed we've taken apart. See garden clearance for how those jobs are priced.

Questions

What Bexley and Bexleyheath customers ask before booking

Bexley Council's bulky collection costs from £50 in Bexleyheath on a weekday and £67.50 on a Saturday, with the items left outside the property but off the highway (book a bulky collection (external site)). RLE Waste Clearance works 7am to 7pm, seven days a week, with Saturday priced the same as a weekday, carrying from inside the house, the loft or the garden, and the price is set by the load. Our guide to council bulky waste collections compared puts Bexley's fees next to nine other councils'.

Bexley Council's bulky service excludes large amounts of black sacks from clearances, along with garden waste and pianos. After a Bexleyheath house clearance, bags, furniture and boxes can all go in one of our loads instead, priced by how much of the truck they fill, so nothing has to be split between collections. As a rough guide, a full truck holds about 150 bin bags.

Rubble from a Bexleyheath kitchen or bathroom refit goes on our truck with the old units and tiles. Heavy waste such as rubble and soil is £360 plus VAT for up to 15 cubic yards or 1,200kg, and lighter rip-out waste is priced by the space it takes up. Asbestos can go too once it has been removed, but tell us about it first and don't break it up. See rubble removal, builders' waste and kitchen and bathroom rip out.

Broadway in Bexleyheath and Bexley High Street in Old Bexley are both controlled parking roads, and the town-centre zones often run all day.

Tell us the address when you send your photo so we can plan where the truck stops, and no parking fees or fines are passed on to you.

A shop or office on Broadway in Bexleyheath is cleared at the same load prices as a house: desks, chairs, shelving and paperwork. Council tips in Bexley turn away trade waste, so a business needs a registered waste carrier, and RLE Waste Clearance is one, CBDU175566. Commercial accounts are available, subject to credit checks.

Bexley residents can be fined when their rubbish ends up fly-tipped: the council issued more than 241 fixed penalties to residential properties in 2024 to 2025 (Bexley Council (external site)), and its advice (external site) is to use a registered waste carrier. Our number is CBDU175566, which you can check on the Environment Agency register (external site) before booking.
