Overview
Flat and apartment clearance in Primrose Hill NW1, explained
Flat and apartment clearance in Primrose Hill NW1 is a fixed-price visit for social-housing-led homes in Camden, most of them mainly Victorian. 3,616 households sit inside this NW1 patch, 80% of them flats, so we quote on access near Primrose Hill summit rather than a London average.
How it works
How flat and apartment clearance works in Primrose Hill
Five steps, the same on every NW1 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — measured on the walk in from Chalk Farm (Northern) rather than assumed from a map is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Photos or a video walk-through
A short video of each room and a note of the floor is enough for a fixed price on most London flats.
Step 2
Clear the building access
We contact the block manager or concierge about the lift, the loading bay and the permitted hours before the day.
Step 3
Protect the route
Hall, lift lobby and communal stairs sheeted, because damage to a shared area is the one thing a block will charge back.
Step 4
Sort, dismantle, load
Room by room: keep pile set aside, reusable items separated, the rest dismantled and barrowed out.
Step 5
Reuse, recycle, receipt
Usable contents to a reuse partner, the balance split by stream, transfer note handed to you on site.
Why choose us
Why Primrose Hill customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Primrose Hill wall.
Primrose Hill walls, not generic walls
We expect often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, the reality on the streets around Primrose Hill summit in NW1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Primrose Hill gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, which is why London Borough of Camden kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Insured and documented
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.
Crew sized to the job
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. Very narrow streets, resident bays all week and steep basement stairs on nearly every terrace.
Fixed prices
Flat and apartment clearance prices in Primrose Hill
Fixed prices for NW1 and the rest of Camden. Volume leaving the flat, the floor it is on and the building's access rules set the price. A tenth-floor flat with a booked goods lift is cheaper to clear than a third-floor walk-up holding the same contents.
| 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
What's included in Primrose Hill
The same scope across NW1, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Camden bookings: two crew who clear room by room, with stairs, walk-ups and long lift-lobby carries included, with 3,616 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- Dismantling wardrobes, beds and sofas in the room where the door or stairwell will not take them, checked on every NW1 visit
- In Primrose Hill: lift booking, concierge sign-in and loading-bay arrangements made with the block manager for you, sized for the very narrow streets, resident bays all week and steep basement stairs on nearly every terrace
- On NW1 jobs: reusable furniture, clothing and homeware offered to London reuse partners before anything is tipped, local flat and apartment clearance included
- Standard on Camden bookings: waste transfer note issued in your name on the day, plus before-and-after photographs on request, allowing for the 32% of NW1 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Communal areas sheeted and the flat swept through before we hand the keys back, noted on the Primrose Hill job sheet so the next visit starts from it
Not included
- Asbestos-containing materials, paint, solvents and gas bottles, which need a licensed specialist, which we refer on to the right trade in Primrose Hill
- Removing fitted kitchens, bathrooms or built-in joinery where carcassing has to be cut out, quoted separately if you need it arranged in NW1
- Piano and safe removal, which needs specialist lifting equipment, and we will say so before the NW1 visit rather than on the day
- Anything in a communal bin store that is not the flat's own waste, handled by London Borough of Camden or a specialist contractor instead

Primrose Hill NW1 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Primrose Hill — the numbers that actually change a flat and apartment clearance quote.
Primrose Hill NW1 is mainly Victorian and social-housing-led: 80% of homes here are flats and 20% are houses, across 3,616 households (ONS Census 2021).
With 32% private renting against 35% owner-occupied, most NW1 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Primrose Hill substrates run to often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, the reality on the streets around Primrose Hill summit. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Primrose Hill gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, which is why London Borough of Camden kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the mistake that costs a NW1 customer twice.
Primrose Hill sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — pastel terraces around the hill with the best skyline view in north London — which is why a NW1 quote is not a Camden average.
On access, very narrow streets, resident bays all week and steep basement stairs on nearly every terrace — one reason 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. Fitters travelling in use Chalk Farm (Northern).
