Overview
End of tenancy clearance in Shortlands and Hayes BR2, explained
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Shortlands, end of tenancy clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £140. With 52% of Shortlands and Hayes's 3,676 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in BR2 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How end of tenancy clearance works in Shortlands and Hayes
Five steps, the same on every BR2 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Victorian and Edwardian conversion flats with original lath-and-plaster partitions, as the Shortlands and Hayes stock goes, the reality on the streets around Hayes Common 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 Shortlands and Hayes customers book us
What follows is specific to Shortlands and Hayes: its walls, its access and the paperwork Bromley agents ask for.
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. Shortlands (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a BR2 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Shortlands and Hayes walls, not generic walls
We expect lath and plaster over timber studs in Shortlands and Hayes, with solid brick on the party and external walls — and with 24% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in BR2, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster in BR2, which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and with 33% one-person households in Shortlands and Hayes, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Insured and documented
Registered waste carrier. A waste transfer note is issued on request, which most managing agents keep on file alongside the check-out report and deposit deduction paperwork.
Fixed prices
End of tenancy clearance prices in Shortlands and Hayes
Fixed prices for BR2 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. |
