Overview
This page prices flat and apartment clearance for Eltham SE9 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 15% privately rented and 13,732 households in total. Work starts at £140, fixed in writing, with parking and Royal Borough of Greenwich permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
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
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — a median age of 40 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here in SE9, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in SE9, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — the pattern behind 13,732 households inside the SE9 neighbourhood.
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. Driveway parking on most streets; the high street has timed loading only.
Same-week across every borough, with next-day cover common on studios and single-room clears where a check-out date is fixed. Eltham (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE9 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
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 →
Sultan assembled our new wardrobe. Really good service. Was also able to find clearance through them. Both services were good
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 →

Working in Eltham
Walk Eltham from Eltham Palace outwards and the mainly Victorian pattern is obvious: 27% of the 13,732 households in SE9 live in flats, 73% in houses.
Private renting sits at 15% and owner-occupation at 64%; the first group books flat and apartment clearance at short notice, the second plans it.
Expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — a median age of 40 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here behind the plaster in SE9. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why in SE9, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — the pattern behind 13,732 households inside the SE9 neighbourhood is the fault we are called back to undo.
Two streets can behave very differently in Eltham: the medieval palace, Art Deco Eltham Palace and streets of 1930s semis. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Eltham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Driveway parking on most streets; the high street has timed loading only. Nearest station is Eltham (Southeastern), 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.

Studio or single room clear starts at £140 in Eltham on the streets near Eltham Palace, with this being a short walk from Eltham (Southeastern), and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Volume leaving the flat, the floor it is on and the building's access rules set the price on SE9 jobs, with 15% of SE9 homes being privately rented. A tenth-floor flat with a booked goods lift is cheaper to clear than a third-floor walk-up holding the same contents on the Eltham rounds, with Eltham Palace a few streets away.
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on SE9 jobs, with 21% social-rented stock nearby. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Eltham most weeks around Eltham (Southeastern), with 73% of Eltham homes being houses.
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level around Eltham (Southeastern), with 73% of Eltham homes being houses.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on SE9 jobs. With 27% of Eltham homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on the streets near Eltham Palace, with 64% owner-occupation locally — and a median age of 40 in this neighbourhood, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
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 on this side of Greenwich — and 15% of SE9 homes being privately rented, with 73% of Eltham homes being houses, with a transfer note issued in your name for every load. That paperwork is what most Greenwich letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat across SE9, with 21% social-rented stock nearby.
Asbestos-containing materials, paint, solvents and gas bottles, which need a licensed specialist; Removing fitted kitchens, bathrooms or built-in joinery where carcassing has to be cut out; Piano and safe removal on SE9 jobs — and 73% of Eltham homes being houses, with 28% one-person households here, which needs specialist lifting equipment; Anything in a communal bin store that is not the flat's own waste. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Eltham SE9 price you agree is the price you pay around Eltham (Southeastern), with Greenwich parking rules in play.
All three. With 15% of Eltham privately rented and 64% owner-occupied, roughly half the SE9 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door across SE9 — and 15% of SE9 homes being privately rented, with this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory.
