Nearly 100 people took part in the Cleaner Thames Challenge to tidy up the sand near Broomhouse Lane and Hurlingham Park.
Organised by Thames21 - a waterways charity - the event was one of a regular series of clean-ups to improve the environment across the city.
Among the items that were pulled from the water during the operation in Fulham was a metal shopping trolley.
Similar events are also taking place on the Isle of Dogs.
