The service, locally
How a clear-out runs in Raynes Park SW20
Driveways on most roads; the level crossing and station parade congest at peak in Raynes Park. 1930s semis with driveways, Edwardian terraces and small flat blocks around Raynes Park (South Western). A quiet family suburb of interwar semis with Cottenham Park nearby on SW20 jobs. Both go into the plan before a date is booked on the Raynes Park rounds, with 51% of homes here being flats — and 51% owner-occupation locally, because carry distance and stair flights change how many people we send, not what we charge you per hour — Raynes Park (South Western) and Cottenham Park set the route in and out.
On ONS Census 2021 figures Merton holds 81,726 households, 40% of them flats on this side of Merton, with 49% of Raynes Park homes being houses — and Cottenham Park a few streets away, with 29% privately rented and 14% socially rented and a median age of 37. In Raynes Park that mix means the homes we are called to are mostly long-held family houses with lofts, cellars and forty years of storage in this 51% flats neighbourhood — and a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood, with Cottenham Park a few streets away, and the route that usually works is supported sorting days at the resident's pace, with everything personal set aside first.
What we most often meet here: long-held family houses with lofts, cellars and forty years of storage. The usual challenge is decades of paperwork, photographs and inherited belongings, where the sorting matters far more than the carrying. The route that tends to work is supported sorting days at the resident's pace, with everything personal set aside first. Access and parking: Driveways on most roads; the level crossing and station parade congest at peak.

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.

Supported sorting days at the resident's pace, with 49% of Raynes Park homes being houses, with everything personal set aside first is what usually works here across SW20.
