Hotel clearance London

Hotel clearance in London room by room, floor by floor.

Guest room strip-outs, FF&E refurbishments and full closure clearances across London's hotels, scheduled around housekeeping and guest floors rather than treated as a single messy day. Mattresses, soft furnishings and in-room electricals move through the correct waste stream, catering refrigeration is degassed by a certified engineer before it leaves, and every visit returns a waste transfer note for the facilities file.

London pricing

London hotel clearance prices.

A hotel clearance is priced by room, floor and equipment type rather than by square footage, because a guest room strip-out and a back-of-house kitchen clear are entirely different jobs that happen to sit in the same building.
London hotel clearance prices by scope
JobLondon fromTypical timeWhy the London price differs
Guest room strip-out, per room£8530–45 minBed, mattress, wardrobe and soft furnishings removed room by room during a phased refurbishment.
Mattress and divan disposal, per unit£2810–15 minMattresses go to a dedicated recycler that strips foam, springs and fabric separately from general waste.
FF&E floor strip-out, per floor£6401 dayA full floor of case goods and fittings taken out in one visit, sequenced so occupied floors are unaffected.
Banqueting and function suite clearance£7801 dayStacking chairs, tables, staging and AV cabling cleared ahead of a tight turnaround before the next event.
Kitchen and back-of-house strip-out£9201 dayCatering equipment and cold rooms removed with F-gas degassing arranged separately, slower than a front-of-house clear.
Full closure clearance, per floor of rooms£1,1501–2 daysEvery room stripped in sequence for a hotel closing entirely, priced by floor because lift access sets the pace.

Commercial clearance is quoted plus VAT at 20%. Waste transfer notes, segregation and tip gate fees are inside the price. ULEZ, the Congestion Charge where it applies, permits, bay suspensions and estate access charges are itemised on the written quote before a vehicle is booked.

Working in London

Why hotel clearance runs on room count, not floor area.

A hotel is one of the few commercial buildings where the clearance has to work around people staying in it. That changes how the job is planned far more than it changes the waste itself.

Guest floors are never fully closed

Even a major refurbishment usually leaves adjacent floors trading, so lift access has to be shared with guests and housekeeping trolleys rather than blocked off for a full day. We book lift slots and corridor protection in advance so a strip-out never collides with checkout.

The loading bay is the other constraint — most central London hotels have one bay serving deliveries, laundry and waste, and a suspended kerbside bay is usually the only alternative when a refit needs a dedicated vehicle for several days.

Mattresses and soft furnishings are a volume problem, not a weight one

A 12-room refurbishment produces roughly 12 mattresses, 12 headboards and a van's worth of soft furnishings that take up far more space than they weigh. We route mattresses to a dedicated recycler rather than general waste, which keeps the per-room cost down and meets the disposal rules most boroughs now apply to bulky bedding.

Catering refrigeration needs an engineer, not just a van

Cold rooms and under-counter fridges in a hotel kitchen hold refrigerant gas that must be certified degassed before the unit can be moved. We book this ahead of the strip-out date because it is the one step in a hotel clearance that cannot be compressed to save a day.

In-room electricals go through WEEE, not the skip

Televisions, minibars and hairdryers removed during a refit are WEEE-classified electricals, and a hotel operator's own environmental reporting usually tracks how these are disposed of. We keep them as a separate stream with their own paperwork rather than mixing them into general FF&E waste.

How it works

Three steps and a written price.

Booking hotel clearance in london takes three steps — you get a fixed written figure before anyone is sent, and the price on the page is the price on the invoice.
  1. 1

    Tell us the postcode and the job

    Send photographs or a short video with your London postcode. It takes a couple of minutes and there is nothing to pay to ask.

  2. 2

    Get a fixed written price

    We come back with one figure for hotel clearance in london — ULEZ, the Congestion Charge and disposal or materials already inside it, with any council permit shown at cost.

  3. 3

    Book the slot that suits you

    Pick a morning or afternoon window, including evenings and weekends. You get a named team, a text before arrival and paperwork on completion.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions.

  • How much does hotel clearance cost in London?

    Guest room strip-outs start at £85 a room, mattress disposal from £28 a unit, and an FF&E floor clearance from £640. A kitchen and back-of-house strip-out starts at £920. All commercial prices are plus VAT.

  • Can you work while the hotel is still trading?

    Yes. Guest room and floor clearances are scheduled around housekeeping rounds and occupied floors, and loading bay access is booked in advance so a refit never blocks deliveries or checkout.

  • What happens to mattresses and soft furnishings?

    They go to a dedicated mattress recycler that separates foam, springs and fabric, rather than general waste — this is both a disposal requirement in most boroughs and cheaper per unit than mixed skip disposal.

  • Do you handle fridges and cold rooms in the kitchen?

    Yes, with certified F-gas degassing carried out before the unit is removed. This is booked ahead of the strip-out date because it is a licensed step that cannot be skipped or compressed.

  • Do you provide waste transfer notes?

    Yes, for every visit, itemised by floor or room block so the hotel's facilities manager has a complete record for each phase of the refurbishment.

  • Can you clear an entire hotel for redevelopment?

    Yes. Full closure clearances are priced per floor of rooms because lift access and corridor width set the pace more than room count alone, and we sequence the whole building against the operator's handover date.

  • How much notice do you need?

    Three to five working days for a phased refurbishment schedule, and next day for a small room-block clear. Full closures are planned around the agreed handover date.

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.
