Croydon Rubbish Collection, Done For You
From flats near East Croydon station to family houses in Thornton Heath, Addiscombe and Sanderstead, most of our rubbish collection Croydon jobs start the same way: more than the bins can take. Garden waste after a big tidy-up, bulky furniture, tiles and rubble from a refit, or a whole house to clear. We cover the whole borough, from Norbury and South Norwood to Purley, Kenley and New Addington.
Snap a photo of what needs to go and send it on WhatsApp or through the quote form, with your Croydon postcode. You’ll get one fixed price back, normally within minutes, and a lot of our jobs here are collected the same day or first thing next morning, weekends included.
You don’t lift a thing. The crew carries it all out, whether it’s from a top-floor flat by East Croydon or the bottom of a long Purley garden, loads the van and sweeps up behind them. Everything goes for recycling, reuse or licensed disposal, and every rubbish removal Croydon job comes with a waste transfer note.

Rubbish Removal Prices In Croydon
What you pay depends on how much of the van your rubbish fills. Stairs, a long carry from the back garden or heavy rubble can add a little, and you’ll know about it before you book. Loading, labour and tip fees are always included.
| Size of job | Croydon example | Price |
|---|---|---|
| One item | An armchair, a single mattress or a few bin bags | from £49 |
| A small load | A garage corner, or two or three bulky pieces | £100–£135 |
| A bigger load | A shed clear-out or a bedroom of furniture | £175–£250 |
Bigger jobs, like a full house clearance, are on our price list. Thinking about a skip instead? Our skip hire versus man and van guide compares the real costs.
Your Options For Rubbish In Croydon
Council services, recycling centres or a collection: which one suits your job.
Croydon Council bulky items
Croydon Council collects up to six bulky items for a fee, with one price for up to three items and a higher one for up to six. Bags and boxes count as one item each, and everything goes at the front of your home the night before a weekday collection.
Factory Lane, Purley Oaks and Fishers Farm
The borough has reuse and recycling centres at Factory Lane in West Croydon, Purley Oaks on the Brighton Road and Fishers Farm in New Addington. Check the council’s vehicle rules before you take a van or trailer.
The brown garden waste bin
The council runs a yearly garden waste subscription with a brown bin, collected every two weeks. The bin needs to be at the edge of your property by 6am, and extra sacks next to it aren’t collected.
Booking us instead
The easiest option for big garden clear-outs, rubble and tiles, bulky furniture, upstairs flats and short notice. We collect everything in one visit, often the same day.
If you pay someone to take it, make sure they hold a waste carrier licence. When unlicensed collectors fly-tip rubbish, the fine can land on the householder.
Croydon Council Bulky Collection Or Waste Collectors?
For a few items you can put out the front the night before, the council service works well. Here’s how the two compare for everything else.
| Croydon Council | Waste Collectors | |
|---|---|---|
| How much | A set fee for up to three items, and a higher one for up to six. | From a single item to a whole house, priced from your photos. |
| When | A weekday collection, with items out the night before. | Seven days a week, often today or tomorrow. |
| Where from | The front of your home, or outside the bin area for flats. | From inside: upstairs flats, lofts, garages and back gardens. |
| What goes | Household items. Tiles, building waste, mirrors and fence panels go to a recycling centre. | Everything in one visit, including tiles, rubble, glass and garden waste. |
| Garden waste | A brown bin subscription, collected every two weeks. | Bagged or loose, in the same visit, including soil, turf and big branches. |
| Who lifts | You bring the items outside, bagged, boxed or bundled. | The crew does the carrying, loading and taking apart. |
Council and recycling centre details come from Croydon Council’s website. Their rules can change, so check with them before booking.
Where Your Croydon Rubbish Ends Up
Every load gets sorted after the job. Furniture and appliances that can still be used go for reuse, and wood, metal, cardboard, garden waste and electricals are split out for recycling. What’s left goes to a licensed site.
We’re registered as a waste carrier with the Environment Agency, and you can look up our licence on the public register. You get a waste transfer note for every rubbish collection Croydon job, so there’s a record of where it went.
