The service, locally
How a clear-out runs in Tower Hill and St Katharine Docks E1
The practical shape of a clear-out here is set by the buildings on this side of Tower Hamlets. Marina, hotels and apartments beside the Tower and Tower Bridge in Tower Hill and St Katharine Docks. Dock-side apartments, Ivory House lofts and hotel-conversion flats. Marina estate access control, tourist congestion and booked service lifts in this 91% flats neighbourhood. It is the reason we survey before quoting rather than pricing from a photograph on this side of Tower Hamlets, with 2,891 households on this patch — and Tower Bridge and St Katharine Docks a few streets away, and why teams heading for Tower Bridge and St Katharine Docks are briefed on Tower Hill (Circle, District) before the day.
3 and a dwelling split of 88% flats to 12% houses on the Tower Hill and St Katharine Docks rounds. Around Tower Hill and St Katharine Docks that translates into flats where a housing officer or support worker is often already involved for Tower Hill and St Katharine Docks (E1) addresses, with this being a short walk from Tower Hill (Circle, District), where the honest answer is usually a safeguarding-led programme run alongside the housing team — and 8% of Tower Hill and St Katharine Docks homes being houses, 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: Marina estate access control, tourist congestion and booked service lifts.

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 safeguarding-led programme run alongside the housing team across E1, with 13% social-rented stock nearby, with a written report back is what usually works here.
