Merton · SW20 · Flat and apartment clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Raynes Park fitters · Fixed written pricesWe provide flat and apartment clearance in Raynes Park SW20 for houses and flats around Cottenham Park. From £140, quoted in writing before the visit, with 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 Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
Booked mostly by renter-heavy households around Raynes Park, flat and apartment clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £140. With 51% of Raynes Park's 3,570 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SW20 shape the slot length we hold.
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. Driveways on most roads; the level crossing and station parade congest at peak.
Same-week across every borough, with next-day cover common on studios and single-room clears where a check-out date is fixed. Raynes Park (South Western) is the nearest station, so a SW20 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, where 51% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in SW20, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster, and with 30% one-person households in Raynes Park, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
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.

Working in Raynes Park
Raynes Park SW20 is mainly Edwardian and renter-heavy: 51% of homes here are flats and 49% are houses, across 3,570 households (ONS Census 2021).
The renter-heavy mix here (51% owned, 35% privately rented) means a SW20 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Raynes Park substrates run to with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, where 51% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster, and with 30% one-person households in Raynes Park, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is the mistake that costs a SW20 customer twice.
A quiet family suburb of interwar semis with Cottenham Park nearby. That character decides the practical detail of flat and apartment clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. Raynes Park is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: driveways on most roads; the level crossing and station parade congest at peak. Raynes Park (South Western) 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.
