Local warehouse clearance for Wandsworth and its 8 covered areas. Riverside Battersea and Nine Elms, Clapham Junction's crossroads and the commons at Wandsworth, Tooting and Putney.
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. |

Working in Wandsworth
Wandsworth is built from victorian terraces converted into flats, mansion blocks along the commons and nine elms high-rise, and the mix changes street by street — Battersea (SW11), Clapham Junction (SW11) and Earlsfield (SW18) each behave differently on the day.
Parking is the job before the job here: very tight cpzs, riverside developments with booked loading bays, and narrow 'between the commons' streets. Locally that means estate loading docks booked in advance, nine elms construction diversions and tight terraced streets and very tight cpz, narrow streets with parked cars both sides and no rear access. Wandsworth sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
Estate roads across Wandsworth are frequently managed by the landlord rather than London Borough of Wandsworth, which means bay use, out-of-hours working and forklift movement are governed by the estate rules on top of anything the council enforces on the public highway. We confirm both before the first vehicle arrives.
Why it looks like this: breweries, mills and gasworks on the wandle and thames, now some of the densest new-build regeneration in europe.
Scope
Method
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.
Coverage
Also in this borough
The parent commercial silo — offices, units, shops and estate handovers.
Rubble, plasterboard and strip-out waste removed with transfer notes issued.
Desks, chairs, IT and storage cleared out of hours to a handover date.
Mixed loads collected by volume with a same-day waste transfer note.
Pallet and stock disposal, per pallet starts at £45 in Wandsworth, and the ladder runs up to £480 for the largest job on the table above. Aisle density and racking height. Two units with the same floor area differ by days once one of them has six-metre racking and a mezzanine, and steel racking recovers scrap value that offsets part of the cost. The borough is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on — only ULEZ, which our vans are compliant with.
We cover the whole borough: SW11, SW12, SW15, SW17, SW18, SW19 and SW8. On the ground that includes Battersea, Clapham Junction, Earlsfield, Putney, Roehampton and Southfields.
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. South London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Very tight CPZs, riverside developments with booked loading bays, and narrow 'between the commons' streets. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Wandsworth and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. Victorian terraces converted into flats, mansion blocks along the commons and Nine Elms high-rise is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.
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. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Wandsworth tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
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. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Wandsworth postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Forklift hire and a qualified operator, which we can arrange but quote separately, Work at height above racking level without a booked MEWP, which is priced per day when needed and Asbestos cladding, insulation board or roof sheets, which need a licensed contractor. If something on that list turns up in Wandsworth, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

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 →
