This page prices end of tenancy clearance for Crystal Palace SE19 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 27% privately rented and 4,203 households in total. Work starts at £140, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Croydon permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
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
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
Building entry codes, lift booking or a CPZ suspension arranged in advance for blocks with restricted loading.
Step 4
Left items removed, sorted for donation or disposal, and any communal or storage areas covered by the let cleared with them.
Step 5
Photographs of the empty property emailed the same day, ready to attach to the check-out report.
Why choose us
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. Crystal Palace (Overground, Southern) is the nearest station, so a SE19 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, the pattern behind 4,203 households inside the SE19 neighbourhood in SE19, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Crystal Palace gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, the reality on the streets around Crystal Palace Park and the dinosaurs.
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.
Two operatives with a Luton van as standard, scaling to a second vehicle for a full three-bed or a property with no lift. The steepest streets in south London, narrow triangle junctions and permit bays.
Fixed prices
| 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
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 Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace SE19 is mainly Victorian and mixed-tenure: 68% of homes here are flats and 32% are houses, across 4,203 households (ONS Census 2021).
The mixed-tenure mix here (50% owned, 27% privately rented) means a SE19 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Crystal Palace substrates run to with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, the pattern behind 4,203 households inside the SE19 neighbourhood. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Crystal Palace gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, the reality on the streets around Crystal Palace Park and the dinosaurs is the mistake that costs a SE19 customer twice.
Crystal Palace is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — the park's dinosaurs, the transmitter and a triangle of independent shops on the hill — which is why a SE19 quote is not a Croydon average.
The steepest streets in south London, narrow triangle junctions and permit bays. Nearest station is Crystal Palace (Overground, Southern), and two operatives with a Luton van as standard, scaling to a second vehicle for a full three-bed or a property with no lift.

We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Crystal Palace most weeks on the streets near Crystal Palace Park and the dinosaurs, with Croydon parking rules in play.
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level in Crystal Palace, with 68% of homes here being flats.

With 68% of Crystal Palace homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on this side of Croydon, with Crystal Palace Park and the dinosaurs a few streets away — and 4,203 households on this patch, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.

The end of tenancy clean itself, quoted and booked separately unless taken as the combined package; Structural damage repair, redecoration or making good marks left by furniture; Items the outgoing tenant disputes ownership of in this 68% flats neighbourhood — and Croydon parking rules in play, with 23% social-rented stock nearby, which we leave in place pending agreement; Hazardous household waste such as old paint tins or gas canisters, booked as a separate collection.
