Overview
End of tenancy clearance in Penge SE20, explained
End of tenancy clearance in Penge SE20 is a fixed-price visit for social-housing-led homes in Bromley, most of them mainly Victorian. 8,101 households sit inside this SE20 patch, 60% of them flats, so we quote on access near The Watermen's Almshouses rather than a London average.
How it works
How end of tenancy clearance works in Penge
Five steps, the same on every SE20 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — the pattern behind 8,101 households inside the SE20 neighbourhood is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Check-out date confirmed
We work back from the inventory clerk's appointment time, because a clearance that finishes after the check-out walk-round has missed the point of the job.
Step 2
Survey or photos reviewed
Volume estimated from photos or a quick visit, so the quote reflects what has actually been left rather than a generic per-room rate.
Step 3
Access booked
Building entry codes, lift booking or a CPZ suspension arranged in advance for blocks with restricted loading.
Step 4
Clearance carried out
Left items removed, sorted for donation or disposal, and any communal or storage areas covered by the let cleared with them.
Step 5
Handover pack sent
Photographs of the empty property emailed the same day, ready to attach to the check-out report.
Why choose us
Why Penge customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Penge wall.
Crew sized to the job
Two operatives with a Luton van as standard, scaling to a second vehicle for a full three-bed or a property with no lift. Steep approaches from Crystal Palace, narrow terraced streets and permit bays.
Booked around your day
Next-day as standard, same-day where the check-out appointment allows a morning booking. Weekend slots are available for agents working to a Saturday move-out. Penge East (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE20 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Penge walls, not generic walls
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, and with 24% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in SE20, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Penge gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, where 43% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Fixed prices
End of tenancy clearance prices in Penge
Fixed prices for SE20 and the rest of Bromley. How much was actually left behind, not the size of the property. A one-bed with a full house of abandoned furniture costs more than a three-bed left broom-clean.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio or one-bed left items clear | £140 | 1–2 hrs | Priced for the volume a departing tenant typically leaves behind — a bed, a sofa and a few bags of belongings rather than a full house. |
| Two/three-bed full clearance | £320 | 2–4 hrs | A full property clear where the tenant has left completely, including anything the inventory check-out list flags as removed rather than damaged. |
| Single item, tenant abandoned | £55 | 30–45 min | One sofa, mattress or wardrobe left behind after a move-out, quoted per item so a landlord is not paying for a full clearance minimum. |
| Storage or garage clear-out, per property | £180 | 1–2 hrs | Communal or private storage attached to the let, cleared before the next tenant's check-in inventory is drawn up. |
| Same-day clearance before check-out | £220 | 2–3 hrs | Booked against a fixed check-out appointment with the inventory clerk, which means the crew has to be first on site, not fitted around a normal run. |
| Clearance plus end of tenancy clean, per property | £480 | Half day | One booking covering both the clear and the inventory-standard clean, which is cheaper and faster than co-ordinating two separate contractors on the same deadline. |

Scope
What's included in Penge
The same scope across SE20, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Bromley bookings: same-day and next-day slots that can be booked directly against a check-out appointment time, allowing for the 24% of SE20 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Photographic record of the cleared property, timestamped for the landlord's or agent's file, noted on the Penge job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- In Penge: sorting of items left behind for donation, recycling or disposal, with a note of what went where, timed against the walk in from Penge East (Southeastern)
- On SE20 jobs: removal of communal bin store and storage cupboard items included in the let, agreed on the doorstep in Penge before anything is unpacked
- Standard on Bromley bookings: waste transfer note issued where the job is invoiced to a letting agent or managing company, arranged with London Borough of Bromley where the kerb needs it
- Coordination with the inventory clerk's check-out time so the property is empty for the walk-round — including end of tenancy clearance
Not included
- The end of tenancy clean itself, quoted and booked separately unless taken as the combined package, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE20
- Structural damage repair, redecoration or making good marks left by furniture, outside the fixed price on Penge bookings
- Items the outgoing tenant disputes ownership of, which we leave in place pending agreement, handled by London Borough of Bromley or a specialist contractor instead
- Hazardous household waste such as old paint tins or gas canisters, booked as a separate collection, which we refer on to the right trade in Penge

How much was actually left behind, not the size of the property in this 60% flats neighbourhood. A one-bed with a full house of abandoned furniture costs more than a three-bed left broom-clean on Bromley bookings, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Penge SE20?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions in this 60% flats neighbourhood, with 35% one-person households here. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Penge most weeks on this side of Bromley, with 8,101 households on this patch.
How long does flat-pack assembly take in Penge?
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on Bromley bookings, with 8,101 households on this patch. On Penge jobs we confirm it when the slot is booked, not on the day.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Penge doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in across SE20. With 60% of Penge homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on the streets near The Watermen's Almshouses — and 40% of Penge homes being houses, with this being London Borough of Bromley territory, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.

Is same-day or evening end of tenancy clearance available in Bromley?
Next-day as standard, same-day where the check-out appointment allows a morning booking for Penge (SE20) addresses. Weekend slots are available for agents working to a Saturday move-out in Penge. Penge sits close to Penge East (Southeastern), with 24% of SE20 homes being privately rented, so we can usually add a SE20 job to an existing Bromley round at short notice on Bromley bookings.
Do you handle difficult access in Penge?

Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Bromley it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards around Penge East (Southeastern), with 43% owner-occupation locally — and this being London Borough of Bromley territory.
