Overview
Flat and apartment clearance in Greenwich SE10, explained
This page prices flat and apartment clearance for Greenwich SE10 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 31% privately rented and 17,397 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
How flat and apartment clearance works in Greenwich
Five steps, the same on every SE10 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In SE10, New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard — with 29% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first 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 Greenwich customers book us
What follows is specific to Greenwich: its walls, its access and the paperwork Greenwich agents ask for.
Greenwich walls, not generic walls
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms, and with 32% one-person households in Greenwich, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in SE10, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Greenwich stock goes, and with 31% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
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. Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access.
Fixed prices
Flat and apartment clearance prices in Greenwich
Fixed prices for SE10 and the rest of Greenwich. 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 Greenwich
The same scope across SE10, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In Greenwich: two crew who clear room by room, with stairs, walk-ups and long lift-lobby carries included, timed against the walk in from Cutty Sark (DLR)
- On SE10 jobs: dismantling wardrobes, beds and sofas in the room where the door or stairwell will not take them, agreed on the doorstep in Greenwich before anything is unpacked
- Standard on Greenwich bookings: lift booking, concierge sign-in and loading-bay arrangements made with the block manager for you, allowing for the 31% of SE10 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Reusable furniture, clothing and homeware offered to London reuse partners before anything is tipped, noted on the Greenwich job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- In Greenwich: waste transfer note issued in your name on the day, plus before-and-after photographs on request, sized for the cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access
- On SE10 jobs: communal areas sheeted and the flat swept through before we hand the keys back, flat and apartment clearance included
Not included
- Asbestos-containing materials, paint, solvents and gas bottles, which need a licensed specialist, outside the fixed price on Greenwich bookings
- Removing fitted kitchens, bathrooms or built-in joinery where carcassing has to be cut out, and we will say so before the SE10 visit rather than on the day
- Piano and safe removal, which needs specialist lifting equipment, handled by Royal Borough of Greenwich or a specialist contractor instead
- Anything in a communal bin store that is not the flat's own waste, which we refer on to the right trade in Greenwich

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.

Greenwich SE10 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Greenwich — the numbers that actually change a flat and apartment clearance quote.
17,397 households sit inside the SE10 neighbourhood covering Greenwich. The build is Georgian and early Victorian, the tenure profile mixed-tenure, and 73% of those homes are flats.
Because 31% of Greenwich is privately rented and 29% socially rented, a lot of SE10 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Walls are dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms, and with 32% one-person households in Greenwich, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site, so the fixing that matters in Greenwich is chosen on site — the usual failure here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Greenwich stock goes, and with 31% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Greenwich 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 — world Heritage centre of the market, the Cutty Sark and the Observatory on the hill — which is why a SE10 quote is not a Greenwich average.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access. Cutty Sark (DLR) is the nearest station, 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.

Common questions
Flat and apartment clearance in Greenwich SE10 — your questions.
How much does flat and apartment clearance cost in Greenwich SE10?
Studio or single room clear starts at £140 in Greenwich on the streets near The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark, with 40% owner-occupation locally, 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 across SE10, with 29% social-rented stock nearby. 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 Greenwich rounds, with 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Greenwich SE10?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions in this 73% flats neighbourhood, with 73% of homes here being flats. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Greenwich most weeks for Greenwich (SE10) addresses, with Greenwich parking rules in play.
How long does flat-pack assembly take in Greenwich?
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on Greenwich bookings, with 32% one-person households here.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Greenwich doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on Greenwich bookings. With 73% of Greenwich homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm in this 73% flats neighbourhood, with 73% of homes here being flats — and 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
How quickly can you reach Greenwich from your Greenwich round?
The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark is the marker we route to on Greenwich bookings — and 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented, with 32% one-person households here, and cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access. A SE10 slot added to an existing Greenwich round usually lands the same week rather than the next on the Greenwich rounds, with Greenwich parking rules in play.
Is same-day or evening flat and apartment clearance available in Greenwich?
Same-week across every borough, with next-day cover common on studios and single-room clears where a check-out date is fixed in this 73% flats neighbourhood, with Greenwich parking rules in play. Greenwich sits close to Cutty Sark (DLR), with 27% of Greenwich homes being houses, so we can usually add a SE10 job to an existing Greenwich round at short notice on this side of Greenwich.
Do you handle difficult access in Greenwich?
Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access for Greenwich (SE10) addresses. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in Royal Borough of Greenwich it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on the streets near The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark — and 29% social-rented stock nearby, with 73% of homes here being flats.
