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. Every tower needs a booked goods lift and loading bay; estate roads are camera-controlled.
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. Stratford (Central, Jubilee, Elizabeth line, DLR) is the nearest station, so a E15 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — which is what a 61% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Stratford actually produces in E15, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in E15, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — with 35% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.
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.

Working in Stratford
Census 2021 puts Stratford at 10,391 households with a median age of 32.4. The mainly Victorian stock is renter-heavy, which is why 39% houses and 61% flats need different handling in E15.
Private renting sits at 37% and owner-occupation at 28%; the first group books school clearance at short notice, the second plans it.
Stratford substrates run to often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — which is what a 61% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Stratford actually produces. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because in E15, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — with 35% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is the mistake that costs a E15 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Stratford knows the pattern near Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park: westfield, the Olympic Park and a skyline of new residential towers. We plan the E15 visit around it. Stratford 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: every tower needs a booked goods lift and loading bay; estate roads are camera-controlled. Stratford (Central, Jubilee, Elizabeth line, DLR) is the nearest station, 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.
