Overview
School clearance in Greenwich Peninsula SE10, explained
School clearance in Greenwich Peninsula SE10 is a fixed-price visit for social-housing-led homes in Greenwich, most of them recent new-build. 3,769 households sit inside this SE10 patch, 78% of them flats, so we quote on access near The O2 Arena rather than a London average.
How it works
How school clearance works in Greenwich Peninsula
Five steps, the same on every SE10 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — with 31% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Safeguarding and access agreed
DBS checks confirmed, visitor sign-in arranged and the holiday access window agreed with the site manager before a date is booked.
Step 2
Room-by-room inventory
Furniture, ICT and equipment logged room by room, including a keep, donate or dispose decision against each item.
Step 3
Data-bearing devices isolated first
Computers, servers and networked equipment are logged and removed for certified destruction ahead of general furniture clearance.
Step 4
Clearance carried out in the holiday window
Rooms cleared in the agreed sequence so the site is ready before staff and pupils return for the new term.
Step 5
Sign-off and certificates issued
Data destruction certificates, transfer notes and photographs handed to the site manager for the school's own records.
Why choose us
Why Greenwich Peninsula customers book us
Four things decide whether a SE10 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Crew sized to the job
Two to four operatives for a single-building clear, scaling to two teams working in parallel where a full primary site has to be finished inside a two-week holiday window. Event-day congestion, estate permits and strict lift-booking windows in every block.
Booked around your day
Booked against the school holiday calendar, typically confirmed four to six weeks ahead for a full site clear; single classroom or office clears can be scheduled inside the working week outside term time. North Greenwich (Jubilee) is the nearest station, so a SE10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Greenwich Peninsula walls, not generic walls
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Greenwich Peninsula, often with surface conduit, measured on the walk in from North Greenwich (Jubilee) rather than assumed from a map in SE10, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Greenwich Peninsula gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, and with 25% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Fixed prices
School clearance prices in Greenwich Peninsula
Fixed prices for SE10 and the rest of Greenwich. The proportion of ICT and data-bearing equipment, which needs individual logging and certified destruction, against straightforward furniture and fixtures, which clears faster by volume.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single classroom clearance | £220 | 2–3 hrs | Desks, chairs, storage units and display boards cleared from one classroom, typically booked around a refit or a change of use. |
| ICT suite clearance with data destruction | £480 | half day | Computers, servers and networking equipment removed under WEEE rules with certified data destruction, which is slower than general furniture because every device is logged. |
| Staff room and office clearance | £310 | 3–4 hrs | Furniture, kitchen appliances and filing cleared from staff and administration areas, usually alongside the wider site clear. |
| School hall or gymnasium clearance | £560 | 1 day | Stage blocks, PE equipment and stacking furniture cleared from a large open space, priced by volume rather than room count. |
| Full site clearance, primary school | £1,450 | 1–2 days | Every classroom, hall, office and storeroom cleared in the holiday window, scheduled to be complete before staff return for the new term. |
| Playground and outdoor equipment removal | £380 | half day | Fixed play equipment and outdoor storage require dismantling before removal and are usually recycled as scrap metal or timber rather than landfilled. |

Scope
What's included in Greenwich Peninsula
The same scope across SE10, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Greenwich bookings: dBS-checked operatives and a signed visitor log for every visit, in line with the school's safeguarding policy, allowing for the 25% of SE10 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Certified data destruction for any device holding pupil or staff records, with a certificate issued, noted on the Greenwich Peninsula job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- In Greenwich Peninsula: wEEE-compliant removal of ICT equipment, projectors and networked devices, timed against the walk in from North Greenwich (Jubilee)
- On SE10 jobs: scheduling confirmed against the holiday calendar so work never overlaps with term-time teaching, agreed on the doorstep in Greenwich Peninsula before anything is unpacked
- Standard on Greenwich bookings: segregation of furniture for reuse or donation where the school requests it, ahead of general disposal, arranged with Royal Borough of Greenwich where the kerb needs it
- Waste transfer note and photographic handover pack for the site manager's records — including local school clearance
Not included
- Asbestos-containing materials in older school buildings, which require a licensed removal contractor, and we will say so before the SE10 visit rather than on the day
- Removal of items the school has flagged for retention, donation or transfer to another site, handled by Royal Borough of Greenwich or a specialist contractor instead
- Playground resurfacing or making good after fixed equipment is removed, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE10
- Access during the school day to occupied classrooms without prior agreement from the site manager, outside the fixed price on Greenwich Peninsula bookings

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.

Greenwich Peninsula SE10 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Greenwich Peninsula — the numbers that actually change a school clearance quote.
Greenwich Peninsula SE10 is recent new-build and social-housing-led: 78% of homes here are flats and 22% are houses, across 3,769 households (ONS Census 2021).
The social-housing-led mix here (44% owned, 25% privately rented) means a SE10 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Greenwich Peninsula, often with surface conduit, measured on the walk in from North Greenwich (Jubilee) rather than assumed from a map behind the plaster in SE10. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Greenwich Peninsula gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, and with 25% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the fault we are called back to undo.
The O2, the cable car and a new district of towers on the old gasworks. That character decides the practical detail of school clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. Greenwich Peninsula is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Event-day congestion, estate permits and strict lift-booking windows in every block. Nearest station is North Greenwich (Jubilee), and two to four operatives for a single-building clear, scaling to two teams working in parallel where a full primary site has to be finished inside a two-week holiday window.
