Richmond upon Thames · TW11 · Factory and industrial clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Hampton Wick fitters · Fixed written pricesBooking factory and industrial clearance near Kingston Bridge and Bushy Park's Hampton Wick gate? Very narrow one-way lanes, bridge traffic and no off-street parking in the old core, and that is planned into the slot rather than discovered on the day. Prices start at £680 and are fixed before we travel. Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Hampton Wick, factory and industrial clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £680. With 53% of Hampton Wick's 4,635 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in TW11 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
Every machine, rack and pallet is listed with a recover, resell or recycle decision against it, so nothing valuable leaves as waste by accident.
Step 2
We work only to plant that has been certified isolated, and we say so in writing rather than assuming the last shift switched it off.
Step 3
Consumables and benching first, then racking, then plant, so the floor stays clear enough to move the heavy items last.
Step 4
Ferrous, non-ferrous, WEEE and general are weighed separately, which is how the scrap credit on your invoice is calculated.
Step 5
Swarf and dust removed, floor swept, photographs and paperwork issued for the dilapidations claim.
Why choose us
Five to ten working days for a full unit, since the survey, isolation certificates and estate access all have to be in place first. A part clear around a working line can usually start within a week. Hampton Wick (South Western) is the nearest station, so a TW11 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, the pattern behind 4,635 households inside the TW11 neighbourhood in TW11, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster; locally that also means which crumbles the key and drops the panel, where 63% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Upper-tier waste carrier registration with consignment paperwork for WEEE, oils and hazardous streams, plus a waste transfer note per load. Scrap is weighed on a certificated weighbridge so the credit on your invoice is auditable.
Three to six operatives depending on the plant, with skates, pallet trucks and a tail-lift 7.5t as standard and a HIAB where a machine cannot be moved to the bay by hand. Very narrow one-way lanes, bridge traffic and no off-street parking in the old core.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Part clear, single production line | £680 | 6–8 hrs | One line stripped of tooling, benching and consumables while the rest of the unit keeps running, which is slower than clearing an empty floor. |
| Full unit clearance, up to 5,000 sq ft | £1,850 | 1–2 days | Priced by floor area and the density of what is left, since a light assembly unit and a machine shop of the same size are nothing alike to clear. |
| Machinery removal, per item | £320 | 2–4 hrs | Bolted-down plant has to be disconnected, jacked, skated to the door and loaded — that is rigging labour, not clearance labour. |
| Scrap metal recovery, per tonne | Credit | By load | Steel, copper and aluminium carry a resale value that we credit against the invoice rather than quietly keeping, which is what makes a metal-heavy unit cheaper to clear than an office of the same size. |
| WEEE and electrical plant, per pallet | £185 | 1–2 hrs | Motors, control panels and powered plant fall under WEEE and move on consignment paperwork to a permitted treatment facility. |
| Post-clear industrial sweep | £380 | 3–5 hrs | Swarf, oil residue and dust removed so the unit meets the dilapidations standard rather than merely being empty. |

The guys arrived prompt at 9 am . Sorry I’m rubbish at names but I remember the one guys initials were AB . He really worked hard . Both guys were very polite and were happy to pop back up the stairs to finish dusting the bedrooms surfaces that were missed . Not one moan… Read in full →
Hannah and her friend were friendly and thoughtful. They were very professional and hard working. They also turned a junk room into a nice bedroom. I cannot thank them or praise them enough.
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 →

Working in Hampton Wick
4,635 households sit inside the TW11 neighbourhood covering Hampton Wick. The build is Georgian and early Victorian, the tenure profile owner-occupier-led, and 53% of those homes are flats.
The owner-occupier-led mix here (63% owned, 24% privately rented) means a TW11 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, the pattern behind 4,635 households inside the TW11 neighbourhood behind the plaster in TW11. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster; locally that also means which crumbles the key and drops the panel, where 63% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the fault we are called back to undo.
Hampton Wick is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — a small riverside village opposite Kingston Bridge, at the edge of Bushy Park — which is why a TW11 quote is not a Richmond upon Thames average.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: very narrow one-way lanes, bridge traffic and no off-street parking in the old core. Hampton Wick (South Western) is the nearest station, and three to six operatives depending on the plant, with skates, pallet trucks and a tail-lift 7.5t as standard and a HIAB where a machine cannot be moved to the bay by hand.
