Greenwich · SE10 · Business clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Greenwich fitters · Fixed written pricesBooking business clearance near The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark? Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access, and that is planned into the slot rather than discovered on the day. Prices start at £45 and are fixed before we travel. Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
This page prices business clearance for Greenwich SE10 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 31% privately rented and 17,397 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
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.
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. Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access.
Same-week across every borough, with lease-end and dilapidations deadlines booked ahead and out-of-hours slots available where loading is restricted. Cutty Sark (DLR) is the nearest station, so a SE10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, where 40% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in SE10, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Greenwich gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, which is what a 73% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Greenwich actually produces.
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 Greenwich
In Greenwich (SE10) the split is 73% flats to 27% houses over 17,397 households, and the stock is Georgian and early Victorian.
The mixed-tenure mix here (40% owned, 31% privately rented) means a SE10 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, where 40% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year behind the plaster in SE10. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Greenwich gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, which is what a 73% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Greenwich actually produces is the fault we are called back to undo.
World Heritage centre of the market, the Cutty Sark and the Observatory on the hill. That character decides the practical detail of business clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. Greenwich 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: cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access. Cutty Sark (DLR) 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 Greenwich in this 73% flats neighbourhood, with 27% of Greenwich homes being houses, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Volume leaving the unit, how much of it is fixed rather than loose on Greenwich bookings, with The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark a few streets away, and the building's loading window. A ground-floor unit with its own roller shutter clears in half the time of the same volume behind a shared service lift in Greenwich, with 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented.
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions across SE10, with this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Greenwich most weeks on the streets near The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark, with 73% of homes here being flats.
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on Greenwich bookings, with Greenwich parking rules in play.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in in this 73% flats neighbourhood. With 73% of Greenwich homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on this side of Greenwich, with 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented — and Greenwich parking rules in play, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Asbestos-containing materials, which need a licensed removal contractor and an air clearance certificate; Structural demolition, floor slabs and anything requiring a temporary works design; Refrigeration with pressurised systems — and 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented, and catering gas equipment left connected; Confidential paper shredding beyond one tonne across SE10, with 40% owner-occupation locally, which is booked as a separate secure service. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Greenwich SE10 price you agree is the price you pay on this side of Greenwich, with 29% social-rented stock nearby.
All three. With 31% of Greenwich privately rented and 40% owner-occupied, roughly half the SE10 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on the streets near The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark — and a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood, with The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark a few streets away.
The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark is the marker we route to on SE10 jobs — and 73% of homes here being flats, with this being a short walk from Cutty Sark (DLR), and cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access. A SE10 slot added to an existing Greenwich round usually lands the same week rather than the next around Cutty Sark (DLR), with 40% owner-occupation locally.
