Overview
Booked mostly by mixed-tenure households around Sutton, hotel clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £85. With 59% of Sutton's 22,476 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SM1 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
We list what is leaving room by room or floor by floor, because lift capacity and corridor width set the daily pace far more than the item count does.
Step 2
Loading bay windows and guest-floor restrictions confirmed with management so a strip-out never runs into check-in or checkout hours.
Step 3
Soft furnishings, case goods and electricals split at the point of removal so each stream goes to the correct facility.
Step 4
Rooms or floors cleared in the agreed sequence, protecting corridors and lifts still in guest use.
Step 5
Photographs of the cleared areas and a waste transfer note for every load returned to the hotel's facilities manager.
Why choose us
Two to four operatives depending on room count, scaling to a second team on a full-floor or full-closure clearance where the schedule is set by a redevelopment date. Pedestrianised high street with timed vehicle access; driveways on the residential roads.
Three to five working days for a phased refurbishment schedule, next day for a small room-block clear. Full closures are planned around the handover date agreed with the operator. Sutton (Southern, Thameslink) is the nearest station, so a SM1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls, over lath and plaster over timber studs — which is why London Borough of Sutton kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in SM1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — and with 33% one-person households in Sutton, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Registered waste carrier issuing a transfer note for every visit, with F-gas certified degassing arranged for catering refrigeration and WEEE routing for in-room electricals.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Guest room strip-out, per room | £85 | 30–45 min | Bed, mattress, wardrobe and soft furnishings removed room by room during a phased refurbishment, priced per room so a 12-room wing can be booked without clearing the whole hotel. |
| Mattress and divan disposal, per unit | £28 | 10–15 min | Mattresses are bulky, banned from most general waste streams and go to a dedicated recycler that strips foam, springs and fabric separately. |
| FF&E floor strip-out, per floor | £640 | 1 day | A full floor of case goods, soft furnishings and fixed fittings taken out in one visit, sequenced against housekeeping so occupied floors stay unaffected. |
| Banqueting and function suite clearance | £780 | 1 day | Stacking chairs, round tables, staging and AV cabling cleared from a suite being reconfigured, usually against a tight turnaround before the next event. |
| Kitchen and back-of-house strip-out | £920 | 1 day | Catering equipment, extraction and cold rooms removed with F-gas degassing arranged separately, which is slower and more specialist than a front-of-house clear. |
| Full closure clearance, per floor of rooms | £1,150 | 1–2 days | A hotel closing entirely for redevelopment needs every room stripped in sequence rather than piecemeal, priced by floor because lift access and corridor width set the pace, not room count alone. |

Scope
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 Sutton
Walk Sutton from Sutton High Street and Manor Park outwards and the mainly Victorian pattern is obvious: 59% of the 22,476 households in SM1 live in flats, 41% in houses.
Private renting sits at 32% and owner-occupation at 55%; the first group books hotel clearance at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are with solid brick on the party and external walls, over lath and plaster over timber studs — which is why London Borough of Sutton kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded, so the fixing that matters in Sutton is chosen on site — the usual failure here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — and with 33% one-person households in Sutton, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Anyone who knows Sutton knows the pattern near Sutton High Street and Manor Park: a long pedestrianised high street with the Trinity Square district behind. We plan the SM1 visit around it. Sutton is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: pedestrianised high street with timed vehicle access; driveways on the residential roads. Sutton (Southern, Thameslink) is the nearest station, and two to four operatives depending on room count, scaling to a second team on a full-floor or full-closure clearance where the schedule is set by a redevelopment date.

Guest room strip-out, per room starts at £85 in Sutton on the Sutton rounds, with 59% of homes here being flats, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Room count and lift access first, with Sutton High Street and Manor Park a few streets away, then the mix of soft furnishings against fixed catering plant on Sutton bookings. A guest-floor strip-out is quick per room; a back-of-house kitchen clear is slower because of degassing and specialist WEEE routing on the streets near Sutton High Street and Manor Park, with 41% of Sutton homes being houses.
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions in Sutton, with 55% owner-occupation locally. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Sutton most weeks for Sutton (SM1) addresses, with 13% social-rented stock nearby.
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level in this 59% flats neighbourhood, with Sutton High Street and Manor Park a few streets away.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on the Sutton rounds. With 59% of Sutton homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on SM1 jobs, with 33% one-person households here — and this being a short walk from Sutton (Southern, Thameslink), so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
All three. With 32% of Sutton privately rented and 55% owner-occupied, roughly half the SM1 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on Sutton bookings — and this being a short walk from Sutton (Southern, Thameslink), with 13% social-rented stock nearby.
Sutton High Street and Manor Park is the marker we route to on the Sutton rounds, with 13% social-rented stock nearby, and pedestrianised high street with timed vehicle access; driveways on the residential roads. A SM1 slot added to an existing Sutton round usually lands the same week rather than the next for Sutton (SM1) addresses, with 41% of Sutton homes being houses.
Three to five working days for a phased refurbishment schedule, next day for a small room-block clear on Sutton bookings, with this being London Borough of Sutton territory. Full closures are planned around the handover date agreed with the operator in this 59% flats neighbourhood. Sutton sits close to Sutton (Southern, Thameslink), with 22,476 households on this patch, so we can usually add a SM1 job to an existing Sutton round at short notice for Sutton (SM1) addresses.
