The service, locally
How a clear-out runs in Hanwell W7
The Wharncliffe Viaduct, the Brent valley and a village-like clock tower centre on the Hanwell rounds. Victorian and Edwardian terraces, 1930s semis with drives. That stock is why most W7 jobs turn on storage spaces that filled quietly over years while the living rooms stayed usable on the streets near The Wharncliffe Viaduct, with 55% owner-occupation locally. Narrow bridges over the Brent, permit bays near the station and driveways elsewhere for Hanwell (W7) addresses. The nearest fixed point we work from is Hanwell (Elizabeth line), a short run from The Wharncliffe Viaduct on this side of Ealing, with a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood.
5 and a dwelling split of 50% flats to 50% houses on Ealing bookings. Around Hanwell that translates into owner-occupied family houses with garages, sheds and loft space on the Hanwell rounds — and 45% of homes here being flats, with The Wharncliffe Viaduct a few streets away, where the honest answer is usually zone-by-zone visits starting with the rooms the family most wants back.

How we work
Consent first, always the rules we do not bend
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.
Five routes
The person decides the route not the price list
Supported sorting
Best for: Staying in control, and homes where sentimental value does most of the work.
Staged programme
Best for: Moderate to high Clutter Image Rating homes, or anyone overwhelmed by a single-day attempt before.
Single-session clear
Best for: Deadline work — a tenancy ending, a completion date or an enforcement notice.
Safeguarding-led clearance
Best for: Blocked escape routes, enforcement notices or a tenancy at risk.
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.

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

Cleaning reviews from Greater London customers
This was my second job for Hello services and I was delighted to have Adam and Sultan back again. I had furniture assembly and clearance work to be done, and again it was done very professionally to a very high standard, and with absolute politeness at all times. They did an excellent job yet again… Read in full →
Good value - landlord happy! Didn't have to use the guarantee as the landlord didn't raise any issues. Found customer service helpful and responsive via email. Invoice was clear and easy to understand. Competitive price as well.
I loved the service as the flat was left spotlessly clean! Cynthia was the team leader and she did a great job!
