Richmond upon Thames · SW14 · Warehouse clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Mortlake and East Sheen fitters · Fixed written pricesWe provide warehouse clearance in Mortlake and East Sheen SW14 for houses and flats around The Boat Race finishing post. From £45, quoted in writing before the visit, with four operatives with a 7.5t tail-lift vehicle on a standard unit, scaling to six with a second vehicle where the handover date is tight Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Mortlake, warehouse clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £45. With 50% of Mortlake and East Sheen's 4,944 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SW14 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
We read the dilapidations schedule first, because handing back swept and empty is a different job from simply removing your stock.
Step 2
Sell, return, donate, destroy or recycle recorded against each stock line before anything is loaded.
Step 3
Bay by bay from the far aisle back to the shutter, so the loading bay stays usable until the last day.
Step 4
Steel, card, plastics and general split at the point of loading, which is what keeps the gate cost and the recovery figure honest.
Step 5
Machine sweep, photographs of every bay and the transfer notes returned before the keys go back to the landlord.
Why choose us
Seven to fourteen days for a full unit because racking, stock decisions and estate access have to be planned; a single-aisle or stock-only clear can usually be booked within the week. Mortlake (South Western) is the nearest station, so a SW14 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect lath and plaster over timber studs in Mortlake and East Sheen, with solid brick on the party and external walls, and with 32% one-person households in Mortlake and East Sheen, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in SW14, 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, a median age of 39 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Registered waste carrier with a transfer note per load, plus a certificate of destruction where branded or confidential stock is involved. Steel racking is weighed in as scrap and the credit shown on your invoice.
Four operatives with a 7.5t tail-lift vehicle on a standard unit, scaling to six with a second vehicle where the handover date is tight. Level-crossing delays, Boat Race day closures and permit bays on the terraces.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pallet and stock disposal, per pallet | £45 | 15–20 min | Priced per pallet because a warehouse measures its own waste that way, and it lets you clear obsolete stock in stages rather than all at once. |
| Racking dismantle and removal, per bay | £38 | 20–30 min | Beams and uprights come apart bay by bay; the rate assumes standard boltless racking under six metres with clear aisle access. |
| Mezzanine decking strip-out | £1,200 | 1–2 days | Boards, handrail and stair treads removed and lowered by hand, which is a working-at-height job with its own edge-protection plan. |
| Full unit clear, up to 10,000 sq ft | £2,400 | 2–3 days | Whole-unit handover including stock, racking, benching and the loading bay, priced against floor area and the aisle density. |
| Obsolete stock recycling, per load | £260 | 1–2 hrs | Mixed packaging, damaged goods and returns segregated for card, plastic and general rather than tipped as one mixed load. |
| Handover sweep and floor clean | £480 | 4–6 hrs | Dilapidations clauses ask for swept and empty, and a warehouse floor after racking removal is neither until it has been machine swept. |

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.

Working in Mortlake and East Sheen
4,944 households sit inside the SW14 neighbourhood covering Mortlake and East Sheen. The build is mainly Edwardian, the tenure profile owner-occupier-led, and 50% of those homes are flats.
With 28% private renting against 56% owner-occupied, most SW14 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Walls are lath and plaster over timber studs in Mortlake and East Sheen, with solid brick on the party and external walls, and with 32% one-person households in Mortlake and East Sheen, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site, so the fixing that matters in Mortlake and East Sheen is chosen on site — the usual failure here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster, a median age of 39 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Mortlake and East Sheen is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — the Boat Race finish, the old brewery site and East Sheen's shopping parade — which is why a SW14 quote is not a Richmond upon Thames average.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: level-crossing delays, Boat Race day closures and permit bays on the terraces. Mortlake (South Western) is the nearest station, and four operatives with a 7.5t tail-lift vehicle on a standard unit, scaling to six with a second vehicle where the handover date is tight.
