How it works
Step 1
DBS checks confirmed, visitor sign-in arranged and the holiday access window agreed with the site manager before a date is booked.
Step 2
Furniture, ICT and equipment logged room by room, including a keep, donate or dispose decision against each item.
Step 3
Computers, servers and networked equipment are logged and removed for certified destruction ahead of general furniture clearance.
Step 4
Rooms cleared in the agreed sequence so the site is ready before staff and pupils return for the new term.
Step 5
Data destruction certificates, transfer notes and photographs handed to the site manager for the school's own records.
Why choose us
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. Steep approach roads, tight parades with short loading bays and long garden paths.
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. Highgate (Northern) is the nearest station, so a N10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs — the reality on the streets around Alexandra Palace and Park in N10, 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 — which is why London Borough of Haringey kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
DBS-checked crews working to a signed safeguarding log, with certified data destruction for ICT equipment and a waste transfer note issued for every visit.

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.

Muswell Hill substrates run to with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs — the reality on the streets around Alexandra Palace and Park. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — which is why London Borough of Haringey kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the mistake that costs a N10 customer twice.

Muswell Hill 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: steep approach roads, tight parades with short loading bays and long garden paths.
