The service, locally
Hoarder clean-up in Mortlake and East Sheen SW14
Edwardian terraces and semis, mansion flats and new brewery-site apartments on the streets near The Boat Race finishing post. That stock is why most SW14 jobs turn on decades of paperwork, photographs and inherited belongings across SW14, with this being London Borough of Richmond upon Thames territory, where the sorting matters far more than the carrying. Level-crossing delays, Boat Race day closures and permit bays on the terraces on the Mortlake and East Sheen rounds.

In Mortlake and East Sheen that mix means the homes we are called to are mostly long-held family houses with lofts, cellars and forty years of storage, and the route that usually works is supported sorting days at the resident's pace around Mortlake (South Western), with this being London Borough of Richmond upon Thames territory — and The Boat Race finishing post a few streets away, with everything personal set aside first.

How we work
Consent first, always the rules we do not bend
Consent decides everything
Nothing leaves the property unless the person who lives there has agreed to it, item by item or category by category. Change your mind about a box at eleven o'clock and that box stays.
We work at your pace
Some homes suit a single full day; many do not, and a staged plan across several visits gets further with less distress. We say which is realistic at the survey.
Discretion as standard
Unmarked vehicles on request, plain clothing, no company name at the doorstep, and no photographs beyond those needed for insurance or a landlord file, with written permission.
Trained, checked, insured
DBS-checked teams trained in trauma-informed practice and infection control, full public liability cover, and licensed waste carriage with transfer notes issued to you.
Why Hello Services
What working with us in Mortlake and East Sheen actually looks like
Your decisions, every time
A sorting station goes up before anything moves on this side of Richmond upon Thames, with 28% of SW14 homes being privately rented, and the four trays — keep, donate, recycle, undecided — are yours to fill. In Mortlake and East Sheen as everywhere, an item you are unsure about goes to the undecided tray, not to the van in this 50% flats neighbourhood, with this being a short walk from Mortlake (South Western).
Honest about the pace
We will tell you at the survey whether Mortlake and East Sheen job is realistically one day or five on the streets near The Boat Race finishing post, with this being London Borough of Richmond upon Thames territory — and 28% of SW14 homes being privately rented, and we will say so even when the slower answer is the cheaper one. Supported sorting days at the resident's pace, with 50% of homes here being flats, with everything personal set aside first is what usually works here on SW14 jobs.
Discretion is the default
Unmarked vehicles on request, plain clothing, no company name called out at the door across SW14, with 4,944 households on this patch, and early or weekend starts at no surcharge. Neighbours in Richmond upon Thames do not need to know anything at all on this side of Richmond upon Thames.
Safety assessed, not assumed
Escape routes, fire loading, floor loading and biological risk are checked and written down before the first box moves in Mortlake and East Sheen, with 50% of Mortlake and East Sheen homes being houses. Clearing a route out of the property is always the first task on site around Mortlake (South Western).

The person decides the route not the price list

Best for: Moderate to high Clutter Image Rating homes, or anyone overwhelmed by a single-day attempt before.
Single-session clear
A larger team completes the property in one continuous programme, with a family member or advocate holding decisions where needed.
Best for: Deadline work — a tenancy ending, a completion date or an enforcement notice.
Safeguarding-led clearance
Run jointly with the referring professional against their risk assessment and objectives, with our written report back afterwards.
Best for: Blocked escape routes, enforcement notices or a tenancy at risk.
Recovery clean and sanitise
After sorting: deep clean, anti-microbial treatment, carpets cleaned and odour dealt with at source.

- Access and carry
- Level-crossing delays, Boat Race day closures and permit bays on the terraces. Carry distance and stair flights change the number of operatives we send, and both are counted at the survey.
- Permits and charges
- Richmond upon Thames sits outside the Congestion Charge zone and inside ULEZ, and our vehicles are compliant. London Borough of Richmond upon Thames permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us.
- Housing stock
- Edwardian terraces and semis, mansion flats and new brewery-site apartments. With 40% of Richmond upon Thames 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 Mortlake and East Sheen and what honestly is not
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
- Clearing a home against the wishes of a resident who has capacity — we will not do it, whoever is paying.
- Therapy or clinical treatment. We work alongside your therapist or mental health team, but a clean is not treatment.
- Pest eradication and structural, damp, electrical or gas work. We identify it, arrange the specialist and quote it separately.
- Valuing or selling belongings. We flag anything that looks valuable and hand it to you rather than price it.
A shared standard
The Clutter Image Rating and the safety checks behind every plan
Band 1–3 · Low
Cluttered, but every surface, doorway and appliance is still usable and the floor is largely clear.
Usually a one-day sort and deep clean, often with the resident working alongside the team.
Band 4–6 · Moderate
Floor space is significantly reduced and one or more rooms cannot be used for their purpose.
Commonly two to four visits with a sorting station and a written plan agreed first.
Band 7–9 · High
Movement is restricted to narrow paths and exits or appliances may be blocked, with structural or contamination risk.
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 SW14 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.
