Brent · NW2 · Flat and apartment clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Cricklewood fitters · Fixed written pricesWe provide flat and apartment clearance in Cricklewood NW2 for houses and flats around Cricklewood Broadway. From £140, quoted in writing before the visit, with two crew and a Luton for a studio or one-bed; three crew and a second van on two- and three-bedroom apartments or any duplex Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
Flat and apartment clearance in Cricklewood NW2 is a fixed-price visit for renter-heavy homes in Brent, most of them mainly Edwardian. 4,362 households sit inside this NW2 patch, 74% of them flats, so we quote on access near Cricklewood Broadway rather than a London average.
How it works
Step 1
A short video of each room and a note of the floor is enough for a fixed price on most London flats.
Step 2
We contact the block manager or concierge about the lift, the loading bay and the permitted hours before the day.
Step 3
Hall, lift lobby and communal stairs sheeted, because damage to a shared area is the one thing a block will charge back.
Step 4
Room by room: keep pile set aside, reusable items separated, the rest dismantled and barrowed out.
Step 5
Usable contents to a reuse partner, the balance split by stream, transfer note handed to you on site.
Why choose us
Same-week across every borough, with next-day cover common on studios and single-room clears where a check-out date is fixed. Cricklewood (Thameslink) is the nearest station, so a NW2 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in Cricklewood, with metal stud partitions between rooms, and with 34% one-person households in Cricklewood, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in NW2, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Cricklewood gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, and with 47% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Registered waste carrier working to duty-of-care rules. Upholstered items go into the POPs stream, mattresses to a licensed shredding facility and WEEE to an approved treatment site, with a transfer note issued in your name for every load.
Two crew and a Luton for a studio or one-bed; three crew and a second van on two- and three-bedroom apartments or any duplex. A5 red route, permit bays and terraced streets with tight parking.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio or single room clear | £140 | 1–2 hrs | Priced on the volume that leaves the door rather than the hours on site, so a tight studio is never charged as a full flat. |
| One-bedroom flat, part clear | £220 | 2–3 hrs | Furniture and loose contents from one or two rooms, dismantled where a shared stairwell will not take them whole. |
| One-bedroom flat, full clear | £320 | 3–4 hrs | Everything out including kitchen contents, with the lift or loading bay booked with the block manager first. |
| Two-bedroom flat, full clear | £450 | 4–6 hrs | Two bedrooms plus reception and kitchen: usually a full Luton load and a second run to the transfer station. |
| Three-bedroom apartment or maisonette | £620 | 1 day | Split-level and duplex layouts add a second carry stage, and the load routinely fills more than one van. |
| End-of-tenancy strip-out to bare shell | £380 | 3–5 hrs | Landlord and agent work to a check-out deadline, with photographs and the transfer note issued the same day. |

Scope
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 →

Working in Cricklewood
Cricklewood NW2 is mainly Edwardian and renter-heavy: 74% of homes here are flats and 26% are houses, across 4,362 households (ONS Census 2021).
The renter-heavy mix here (34% owned, 47% privately rented) means a NW2 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in Cricklewood, with metal stud partitions between rooms, and with 34% one-person households in Cricklewood, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site behind the plaster in NW2. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Cricklewood gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, and with 47% 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.
Cricklewood 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 — broadway shops on the A5, with Edwardian terraces and the Brent Cross works beyond — which is why a NW2 quote is not a Brent average.
A5 red route, permit bays and terraced streets with tight parking. Nearest station is Cricklewood (Thameslink), and two crew and a Luton for a studio or one-bed; three crew and a second van on two- and three-bedroom apartments or any duplex.
