How it works

Hoarder clean-up in Greenwich in three steps

Three steps, start to finish — a free survey, a fixed written price, then a consent-led clean-up in Greenwich SE10 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 Greenwich SE10

The practical shape of a clear-out here is set by the buildings in Greenwich. World Heritage centre of the market, the Cutty Sark and the Observatory on the hill on Greenwich bookings. Georgian terraces, listed conversions and 1980s riverside flats. Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access for Greenwich (SE10) addresses. It is the reason we survey before quoting rather than pricing from a photograph in Greenwich — and 29% social-rented stock nearby, with a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood, and why teams heading for The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark are briefed on Cutty Sark (DLR) before the day.

Tenure matters more than most people expect. 43% of Greenwich homes are owner-occupied, 31% socially rented and 26% privately rented across 114,051 households on the Greenwich rounds, with 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented. In Greenwich the homes we work in are mostly flats where a housing officer or support worker is often already involved, and what suits them is a safeguarding-led programme run alongside the housing team on SE10 jobs — and The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark a few streets away, with this being a short walk from Cutty Sark (DLR), with a written report back.

What we most often meet here: flats where a housing officer or support worker is often already involved. The usual challenge is keeping a tenancy safe — blocked communal routes and fire loading are what bring most of these jobs to us. The route that tends to work is a safeguarding-led programme run alongside the housing team, with a written report back. Access and parking: Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access.

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.

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 SE10 the route chosen most often is a safeguarding-led programme run alongside the housing team, with a written report back, but nothing is fixed until after the survey.

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.

Why Hello Services

What working with us in Greenwich actually looks like

Your decisions, every time

A sorting station goes up before anything moves in Greenwich, with this being a short walk from Cutty Sark (DLR), and the four trays — keep, donate, recycle, undecided — are yours to fill. In Greenwich as everywhere, an item you are unsure about goes to the undecided tray, not to the van around Cutty Sark (DLR), with 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented.

Honest about the pace

We will tell you at the survey whether Greenwich job is realistically one day or five on SE10 jobs, with 73% of homes here being flats — and 29% social-rented stock nearby, and we will say so even when the slower answer is the cheaper one. A safeguarding-led programme run alongside the housing team on the streets near The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark, with this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory, with a written report back is what usually works here.

Discretion is the default

Unmarked vehicles on request, plain clothing, no company name called out at the door in Greenwich, with this being a short walk from Cutty Sark (DLR), and early or weekend starts at no surcharge. Neighbours in Greenwich do not need to know anything at all around Cutty Sark (DLR).

Scope

What is included in Greenwich and what honestly is not

Every Greenwich SE10 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 Greenwich 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 SE10 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.
