Whether you need a single bulky item lifted from a conversion flat near Beresford Square or a full house clearance in one of Woolwich’s larger Victorian terraces off General Gordon Place, Junk Guy® provides a straightforward, price-first service. Rates begin at £80 for a single item or small load, rising to approximately £500 for a full van — significantly less than the Royal Borough of Greenwich council’s per-item charges for bulky collections.
Household clearances cover all room types: overfilled loft spaces in converted townhouses near Hare Street, dismantled furniture from ground-floor flats along Arsenal Way, and end-of-tenancy clear-outs across the Royal Arsenal Riverside development. Garden waste removal handles grass cuttings, fencing panels, soil bags, tree branches and general green waste from rear gardens throughout SE18.
Commercial collections in Woolwich town centre serve retail units on Powis Street and Wellington Street, restaurants and cafés in the Spray Street Quarter, and office fit-out waste from the Woolwich Works creative district at the former Royal Arsenal. A waste transfer note is issued with every commercial job as required by the Environmental Protection Act 1990.
Construction and renovation debris — plasterboard, broken tiles, timber offcuts, pipework, and mixed skip-fill from building projects — is collected directly from properties undergoing refurbishment across SE18, including the ongoing new-build developments in Thamesmead and the Berkeley Group’s Royal Arsenal Riverside site.
From end-of-tenancy clearances in the Royal Arsenal Riverside development to commercial strip-outs on Powis Street, customers across Woolwich SE18 and the Royal Borough of Greenwich book Junk Guy® again and again.

Woolwich is a market town and district in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, situated 8.5 miles east-southeast of Charing Cross on the south bank of the River Thames. The postcode district SE18 covers the historic town centre, the Royal Arsenal site, Woolwich Common and the residential streets running from the riverfront up to Shooter’s Hill.
The area’s military and industrial history stretches back to 1512, when Henry VIII established Woolwich Dockyard to build the flagship Henry Grace à Dieu. The Royal Arsenal — originally known as “The Warren” and renamed by George III in 1805 — became one of Britain’s principal ordnance manufacturing complexes, employing tens of thousands at its wartime peak. Arsenal F.C. was founded in 1886 by workers at the Royal Arsenal before moving to Highbury in 1913.
The Royal Artillery Barracks, designed by James Wyatt and completed between 1776 and 1802, retains the longest Georgian façade in London. The Royal Military Academy trained officers at the southern end of Woolwich Common from 1741. General Gordon Square, opened in 1928 on the site of a former railway vent, now serves as the principal public square of the regenerated town centre.
Since the closure of the Royal Arsenal in 1994, Woolwich has undergone significant regeneration. The Royal Arsenal Riverside development, centred on the preserved historic Arsenal buildings, has delivered thousands of new homes and a riverside park. Woolwich Works, a £31 million creative district opened in September 2021, occupies five historic buildings on No 1 Street within the former Arsenal complex, providing a 1,200-seat auditorium, a 450-seat black-box theatre and studio spaces.
Transport connections improved dramatically in May 2022 when Woolwich Elizabeth line station opened, giving direct services to Heathrow Airport in under 40 minutes and Canary Wharf in approximately 8 minutes. The area is also served by Woolwich Arsenal DLR station (opened 2009), Woolwich Arsenal and Woolwich Dockyard National Rail stations (Southeastern and Thameslink services), the free Woolwich Ferry, the Woolwich foot tunnel, Thames Clippers from Royal Arsenal Pier, and numerous bus routes connecting to Greenwich, Plumstead, Eltham, Thamesmead and Abbey Wood.
