Can I get same-day rubbish removal in London?

Sometimes, yes - especially in busy areas like Camden, Islington or Wandsworth. But it isn’t considered a standard service. It depends on:

• How busy the clearance company is
• How much you need removing
• Whether the rubbish is ready to go

If you’re in a rush, your best bet is to contact a few rubbish collectors directly, or search for emergency clearance services in London.
