Shed Clearance Dulwich

Shed Clearance and Removal in Dulwich

A lot of Dulwich gardens have a shed that has been there longer than the current owners: a timber structure at the end of a long Victorian garden, its felt roof gone and its floor softening, full of rusty tools and half-used tins. EM Waste Clearance can either empty it and leave the shed standing or take the whole thing down and away.

Two ways we can help

Clearing the contents. If the shed itself is sound, we remove the old tools, broken mowers, garden equipment and general junk inside, leaving you with an empty space to reorganise.

Removing the shed. We dismantle and remove timber, metal and plastic sheds, as well as greenhouses, summer houses and log stores. Wooden bases can come out too. We don’t remove concrete bases, so those stay where they are.

Making way for something new

Many homeowners in Dulwich, Herne Hill and East Dulwich call us before a garden room, studio or rear extension goes in. Clearing the site first means your installer or builder can start straight away rather than spending the first morning taking apart someone else’s shed. It’s also common to combine shed removal with a full garden clearance, so fencing, old paving and green waste all leave in the same visit.

Good to know before you book

• Standard felt roofs are fine to remove
• We can’t remove sheds with asbestos cement roofs, so please mention it if you suspect one
• Hazardous items such as chemicals, liquid paint and gas bottles must be left out
• We carry everything through the house where there’s no side gate

Timber and metal are recycled and green waste is composted, with up to 90% of what we collect recycled or reused. We’re fully licensed and insured, registered as a waste carrier (CBDU333885), and you get a waste transfer note. Prices are fixed before we start.

When you send photos, include a shot of the route from the shed to the street. On a terrace with no side passage, panels are carried through the house, so we take care with flooring and doorways and lay protection where needed. Inside the shed, there is no need to sort anything first. Old paint tins should be checked, as liquid paint can’t be taken, but dried-out tins, rusty tools, broken furniture and bags of compost are all fine. If you are clearing a shed after a bereavement, we can set aside anything that looks personal or valuable.
