Kensington House Clearance Pricing & Free Quotes
Welcome to our clear, straightforward pricing page for Kensington house clearance. We explain how our rubbish company prices in the area and man and van cost in the Kensington area are calculated so you can budget with confidence. Our approach is intentionally transparent: we use a combination of load-based and cubic-yard rates so you only pay for the space your items take, not a vague hourly rate. Whether you live in a Victorian terrace, a high-floor flat off Kensington High Street, or a busy student house near a local tube station, this page outlines typical costs and gives real examples to make comparisons easy.Our transparent pricing model is designed to reflect the true cost of removal, disposal, recycling and local waste management charges. We publish typical ranges for rubbish removal prices around Kensington, and explain how added services (stair carries, bulky items, hazardous material handling) affect the final quote. We never add hidden fees: any potential surcharge is flagged during the quote process and explained before you accept.
We offer two main pricing structures: a load-based model (priced by how full the vehicle is) and a volume-based model (priced per cubic yard or cubic metre). Load-based pricing suits smaller, irregular loads common in student houses or single-room clearances, while cubic-yard rates are ideal for larger jobs where a measurement makes budgeting simpler. For customers asking about the typical man & van prices in the area, our quotes usually include vehicle and crew time so you know the man and van cost Kensington households expect.
How Our Load-Based & Cubic-Yard Rates Work
We explain both systems so you can choose the one that suits your job. Load-based rates are expressed as a fraction of our van or skip capacity — for example a quarter load, half load, three-quarter load or full load — with clear price bands. Cubic-yard pricing states the rate per cubic yard (or cubic metre), useful for large garden clearances or estate clearance jobs where accurate volume estimates are possible.
Typical service elements included in quotes
- Labour and man-and-van crew — loading and basic sorting at your property.
- Transportation to licensed waste facilities or recycling centres.
- Disposal fees and recycling charges where applicable.
- Basic item removal — furniture, electronics, domestic rubbish.
To give context, here are examples of jobs and how our pricing structures apply: small studio flat clearances in a terraced row near Earl's Court often fit a quarter-van load; larger three-bedroom houses or commercial flats near busy Kensington streets might require a half to full load or be priced by cubic yards. We also outline separately the man and van cost for Kensington-based moves when clients prefer minimal staffing with rapid turnaround.
Example Jobs & Estimated Costs
The following illustrative examples use typical Kensington property types and common busy locations to make the numbers meaningful. Prices are indicative and meant to help with planning — your free quote will provide an exact figure.- Studio flat clearance (ground-floor or low-rise Victorian flat near High Street Kensington): typically a quarter to third load. Estimated range: £80–£180 depending on access and labour. This reflects normal rubbish collection prices in Kensington area for small domestic jobs.
- One-bedroom flat in a converted townhouse (narrow stair access): often a half-van job due to bulky furniture. Estimated range: £150–£300. Man and van cost here may rise if stair carries require extra time.
- Two/three-bedroom family house clearance (suburban Kensington neighbourhood or busy main road): usually a half to full load or priced per cubic yard. Estimated range: £250–£650, sometimes higher for very bulky items like pianos or fitted wardrobes.
- Garden and green waste clearances for townhouses with small yards or communal estate gardens: commonly quoted by volume (cubic yards) — from £120 for small garden waste up to £400+ for larger multi-load clears.
We also itemise heavy or specialist removals: white goods (fridges, freezers) and mattresses often incur specific disposal costs due to regulations. For customers comparing man and van prices in the Kensington area, note that labour-intensive jobs (multiple heavy stair carries or narrow access) increase the crew time component in the man and van cost calculation.
Transparent Extras & Environmental Fees
We list any potential extras up front: hazardous waste handling, electrical appliance disposal, and certain construction or asbestos-contaminated materials are managed under strict rules and quoted separately. Our clear pricing policy includes all landfill or recycling charges in the quote so there are no surprises. Where multiple trips or skip permits are required in busy Kensington locations, we state those costs during the quote process.
Free Quote Policy — How It Works
We offer a no-obligation free quote policy. You can request a free estimate remotely (by sending photos and basic details) or arrange an onsite assessment for larger clearances. During a remote quote we ask for the address type (e.g., terrace, flat over shop, mansion block), approximate item list and any access limitations. This allows us to produce an accurate estimate of rubbish removal prices in the area and the expected man and van cost. When onsite, our estimator will confirm whether a load-based or cubic-yard rate is the fairest option.
