How it works

Hoarder clean-up in Moorgate in three steps

Three steps, start to finish — a free survey, a fixed written price, then a consent-led clean-up in Moorgate EC2 at the pace the resident sets.
  1. Step 1: Talk to us, free and private

    Tell us what the home is like today. No photographs, no judgement, no sales call.

    Same-day reply, seven days a week

  2. Step 2: Free survey, fixed written price

    In person or by video call we rate each room on the Clutter Image Rating scale, check escape routes and risks, then send one written plan and one fixed price.

    No obligation, nothing added later

  3. Step 3: Consent-led clean-up and hand-back

    We work at your pace, item by item, escape routes first, then deep clean and sanitise and hand over waste transfer notes and donation receipts.

    Discreet, unmarked vehicles on request

The service, locally

How a clear-out runs in Moorgate EC2

The practical shape of a clear-out here is set by the buildings around Moorgate (Northern, Elizabeth line). Office core around Finsbury Circus and Liverpool Street in Moorgate, with 2% of Moorgate homes being houses, with a small resident population above the shops. Upper-floor conversions above banks and a handful of new residential towers on this side of City of London. Congestion Charge, weekday loading windows before 10:00, and building managers who require insurance documents in this 98% flats neighbourhood. It is the reason we survey before quoting rather than pricing from a photograph on City of London bookings, with this being a short walk from Moorgate (Northern, Elizabeth line) — and 15% social-rented stock nearby, and why teams heading for Finsbury Circus Gardens are briefed on Moorgate (Northern, Elizabeth line) before the day.

Tenure matters more than most people expect. 37% of City of London homes are owner-occupied, 15% socially rented and 48% privately rented across 4,914 households in Moorgate, with Finsbury Circus Gardens a few streets away. In Moorgate the homes we work in are mostly period conversions and rented flats with narrow shared stairs around Moorgate (Northern, Elizabeth line) — and 37% owner-occupation locally, with 2% of Moorgate homes being houses, and what suits them is a staged plan with early starts and a small, quiet team.

What we most often meet here: period conversions and rented flats with narrow shared stairs. The usual challenge is getting volume down a communal staircase without disturbing the rest of the building, often against a tenancy date. The route that tends to work is a staged plan with early starts and a small, quiet team. Access and parking: Congestion Charge, weekday loading windows before 10:00, and building managers who require insurance documents.

How we work

Consent first, always the rules we do not bend

Hoarding disorder is a recognised mental health condition, listed in the World Health Organization's ICD-11 (6B24) and in the DSM-5. It is not a lifestyle choice, a cleaning failure or a character flaw, and we do not write about it as though it were.
  • Consent decides everything

  • We work at your pace

  • Discretion as standard

  • Trained, checked, insured

Each of these is written out in full — what we do, and what we will never do — on the London hoarder clean-up hub.

Why Hello Services

What working with us in Moorgate actually looks like

Your decisions, every time

A sorting station goes up before anything moves across EC2, with Finsbury Circus Gardens a few streets away, and the four trays — keep, donate, recycle, undecided — are yours to fill. In Moorgate as everywhere, an item you are unsure about goes to the undecided tray, not to the van on the Moorgate rounds, with 98% of homes here being flats.

Honest about the pace

We will tell you at the survey whether Moorgate job is realistically one day or five across EC2 — and this being City of London Corporation territory, with 2% of Moorgate homes being houses, and we will say so even when the slower answer is the cheaper one. A staged plan with early starts and a small, quiet team is what usually works here on the streets near Finsbury Circus Gardens, with 15% social-rented stock nearby.

Discretion is the default

Unmarked vehicles on request, plain clothing, no company name called out at the door around Moorgate (Northern, Elizabeth line), with 51% one-person households here, and early or weekend starts at no surcharge. Neighbours in City of London do not need to know anything at all in Moorgate.

Five routes

The person decides the route not the price list

Five routes, one decision: how much of the home is affected and how much of it the resident wants to lead. In EC2 the route chosen most often is a staged plan with early starts and a small, quiet team, but nothing is fixed until after the survey.
A day at a time

Supported sorting

Best for: Staying in control, and homes where sentimental value does most of the work.

Two to eight visits

Staged programme

Best for: Moderate to high Clutter Image Rating homes, or anyone overwhelmed by a single-day attempt before.

One to three consecutive days

Single-session clear

Best for: Deadline work — a tenancy ending, a completion date or an enforcement notice.

Planned around the case

Safeguarding-led clearance

Best for: Blocked escape routes, enforcement notices or a tenancy at risk.

Half a day to two days

Recovery clean and sanitise

Best for: Handing a property back, or the point where a home needs to feel like a home again.

How each route runs day to day is set out on the London hoarder clean-up hub.

Access and carry
Congestion Charge, weekday loading windows before 10:00, and building managers who require insurance documents. Carry distance and stair flights change the number of operatives we send, and both are counted at the survey.
Permits and charges
Part of City of London sits inside the Congestion Charge zone and all of it is inside ULEZ — both are inside the quoted price. City of London Corporation permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us.
Housing stock
Upper-floor conversions above banks and a handful of new residential towers. With 98% of City of London homes being flats, lift access often decides whether a job is two days or three.
Disposal volume
The single biggest variable, estimated at the survey from the Clutter Image Rating — we would rather over-estimate and refund than surprise you.

Scope

What is included in Moorgate and what honestly is not

Every Moorgate EC2 booking includes the list on the left at no extra cost. The list on the right is work we will not sell as a clean-up, because it would not be honest.

Included in every job

  • A free, no-obligation survey — in person or by video call — and a fixed written quote before anything is booked.
  • A written risk assessment covering escape routes, fire loading, floor loading and biological risk.
  • DBS-checked operatives trained in trauma-informed practice and infection control.
  • A four-tray sorting station and item-by-item consent throughout the visit.
  • Documents, photographs, jewellery, cash and keys set aside for you to review, never disposed of on a judgement call.
  • Licensed waste carriage with transfer notes, donation runs to a charity you choose, and parking, permits and ULEZ inside the quoted figure.

Not included — and why

Structural repair, pest treatment, asbestos removal and a few other jobs sit outside a clean-up. Each exclusion, and the reason for it, is listed on the hoarder clean-up service page.

A shared standard

The Clutter Image Rating and the safety checks behind every plan

We rate every room on the published Clutter Image Rating scale at the survey, so the quote for a Moorgate home rests on a shared standard rather than anyone's opinion.
  • Band 1–3 · Low

    Usually a one-day sort and deep clean, often with the resident working alongside the team.

  • Band 4–6 · Moderate

    Commonly two to four visits with a sorting station and a written plan agreed first.

  • Band 7–9 · High

    A staged programme with a written risk assessment, PPE throughout and other agencies usually involved.

Safety checks on every survey

Four checks run on every EC2 survey before a plan is written, and clearing a route out is always the first task on site.

  • Escape routes: every exit checked, and clearing a route out is always the first task on site.
  • Fire and structural loading: stored material near heaters, meters and consumer units, plus upper-floor and loft loading, reported in writing.
  • Biological risk: food waste, animal waste and sharps identified and handled under the correct waste stream.
  • Pests and utilities: any evidence logged and treatment recommended first, with gas, water and electrical access points cleared.
