Overview
This page prices business clearance for Charlton SE7 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 20% privately rented and 5,904 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and Royal Borough of Greenwich permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
For anything above a part-load we survey the unit, confirm access, lift capacity and the landlord's loading window.
Step 2
The quote separates clearance, WEEE, data destruction and any making-good so the schedule of dilapidations can be answered line by line.
Step 3
Method statement, risk assessment and insurance certificates go to the building manager before the day. Nobody is turned away at the loading bay.
Step 4
Loose contents, then IT and data equipment, then furniture, then racking and fixtures — so the unit is never blocked by its own waste.
Step 5
Transfer note, WEEE evidence, destruction certificates and before-and-after photographs issued the same day for the landlord or agent.
Why choose us
Two crew and a Luton on a small office or shop unit; three to four crew with a 7.5-tonne vehicle on retail strip-outs, warehouses and racking removals. Match-day restrictions at the Valley, steep village hill and riverside estate roads.
Same-week across every borough, with lease-end and dilapidations deadlines booked ahead and out-of-hours slots available where loading is restricted. Charlton (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE7 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — which is why Royal Borough of Greenwich kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in SE7, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — measured on the walk in from Charlton (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map.
Registered waste carrier working to duty-of-care rules for commercial waste. IT and electricals go to an approved WEEE treatment site with evidence returned, data-bearing media is wiped or shredded to certificate, and every load leaves with a transfer note issued to the company.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single desk, chair or cabinet | £45 | 20–40 min | Priced per item because a single redundant workstation does not need a full van booked for it. |
| Quarter-load commercial part-clear | £140 | 1 hr | Charged on volume plus the commercial transfer-station gate fee, which is higher than the domestic rate. |
| Small office or shop unit, full clear | £420 | 3–5 hrs | Desks, chairs, racking and loose stock out in one visit, worked around the building's permitted loading hours. |
| Retail or salon strip-out to shell | £680 | 1 day | Fixtures, counters and shelving come out in sections, and fit-out timber and plasterboard are separate waste streams. |
| Warehouse or storage unit clear | £880 | 1–2 days | Pallet racking has to be dismantled safely before it can be loaded, which is labour rather than volume. |
| IT and WEEE collection with data destruction | £12/unit | By volume | Every drive is logged, wiped or shredded to a certificate, which is a per-unit cost regardless of the load size. |

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 Charlton
The SE7 stock around Charlton House is mainly Victorian. ONS records 48% flats, 52% houses and 5,904 households in Charlton.
Private renting sits at 20% and owner-occupation at 41%; the first group books business clearance at short notice, the second plans it.
Charlton substrates run to often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — which is why Royal Borough of Greenwich kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — measured on the walk in from Charlton (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map is the mistake that costs a SE7 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Charlton knows the pattern near Charlton House: jacobean Charlton House, the Valley stadium and riverside retail parks. We plan the SE7 visit around it. Charlton 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: match-day restrictions at the Valley, steep village hill and riverside estate roads. Charlton (Southeastern) is the nearest station, and two crew and a Luton on a small office or shop unit; three to four crew with a 7.5-tonne vehicle on retail strip-outs, warehouses and racking removals.

Single desk, chair or cabinet starts at £45 in Charlton on this side of Greenwich, with 5,904 households on this patch, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked.

With 48% of Charlton homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm in this 48% flats neighbourhood — and 38% social-rented stock nearby, with this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
