Clearance and rubbish removal in Norbury
Norbury is roughly 3.9 miles and twenty minutes north of our base, sharing the SW16 postcode with Streatham.
The thing worth knowing about Norbury is the borough boundary — which side of the Croydon and Lambeth line you are on affects parking rules and permits more than the mileage does, so say so when you book.
The housing is remarkably consistent interwar stock: gardens front and back, reasonable doorways and deep lofts that routinely hold more than people expect.
London Road is the spine and it is busy, with Victorian villas and early shopping parades lining it — for anything on it, an early start generally beats the middle of the day.
The nearest council tip is Factory Lane Reuse and Recycling Centre back towards Croydon, which is fine for a boot load but not for a loft full of boxes.
We mostly do house and loft clearances, garden clear-outs and bulky collections here, plus shop and flat-above-shop clearances along London Road.

Local knowledge
What makes a Norbury clearance different
Norbury straddles the Croydon and Lambeth boundary, 6.7 miles from Charing Cross, sharing the SW16 postcode with Streatham. The ward had 16,476 residents at the 2011 census.
That borough boundary is worth knowing, because which council area a property falls in affects parking rules and permits more than the distance does. It is worth saying which side of the line you are on when you book.
The area filled in extraordinarily fast: 475 residents in 1901, 15,538 by 1931. The station opened in 1878, electric trams arrived in 1901, and the Norbury Cottage Garden Estate of 1901 was the first cottage estate the London County Council ever built. Most of the housing went up in the thirty years after that, in a series of distinct residential estates.
In practice that means consistent interwar stock — gardens front and back, reasonable doorways, deep lofts that hold more than expected. The A23 London Road is the spine, lined with Victorian villas and early shopping parades, and it is busy: for anything on it, an early start generally beats the middle of the day.

What happens to the waste after a clearance in Norbury
At 3.9 miles and roughly 20 minutes from our base, the onward route is worked out before the van is loaded rather than after. Anything still usable is kept separate as we go, and only what is genuinely finished with goes to a household recycling centre.

We cannot promise any particular shop will accept a given item — that is always their call on the day — but sorting for reuse first is how we keep as much as possible out of the skip.
