This page prices flat and apartment clearance for Kennington SE11 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 25% privately rented and 8,644 households in total.

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. Kennington (Northern) is the nearest station, so a SE11 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SE11, often with surface conduit, and with 38% one-person households in Kennington, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in SE11, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Kennington gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, and with 25% 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. Match-day restrictions at the Oval, Duchy estate rules and basement-step access.
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 Kennington
In Kennington (SE11) the split is 88% flats to 12% houses over 8,644 households, and the stock is Georgian and early Victorian.
With 25% private renting against 28% owner-occupied, most SE11 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SE11, often with surface conduit, and with 38% one-person households in Kennington, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site, so the fixing that matters in Kennington is chosen on site — the usual failure here is Kennington gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, and with 25% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Kennington 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 — georgian terraces, the Oval's gasholders and the park between them — which is why a SE11 quote is not a Lambeth average.
Match-day restrictions at the Oval, Duchy estate rules and basement-step access. Nearest station is Kennington (Northern), 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.
