Lewisham · SE6 · Flat and apartment clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Bellingham and Downham fitters · Fixed written pricesBooking flat and apartment clearance near Beckenham Place Park nearby? Wide estate roads with kerbside parking and level access — easy for a Luton, and that is planned into the slot rather than discovered on the day. Prices start at £140 and are fixed before we travel. Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
Flat and apartment clearance in Bellingham and Downham SE6 is a fixed-price visit for social-housing-led homes in Lewisham, most of them post-war. 3,351 households sit inside this SE6 patch, 32% of them flats, so we quote on access near Beckenham Place Park nearby 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
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. Wide estate roads with kerbside parking and level access — easy for a Luton.
Same-week across every borough, with next-day cover common on studios and single-room clears where a check-out date is fixed. Bellingham (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE6 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, and with 31% one-person households in Bellingham and Downham, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in SE6, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Bellingham and Downham gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, which is what a 32% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Bellingham and Downham actually produces.
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.
