Overview

End of tenancy clearance in Old Street EC1V, explained

This page prices end of tenancy clearance for Old Street EC1V specifically: post-war stock, 28% privately rented and 4,949 households in total. Work starts at £140, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Islington permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.

How it works

How end of tenancy clearance works in Old Street

Five steps, the same on every EC1V job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block, as the Old Street stock goes, where 19% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is what we plan for here.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. Step 3

    Access booked

    Building entry codes, lift booking or a CPZ suspension arranged in advance for blocks with restricted loading.

  4. 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.

  5. 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 Old Street customers book us

Four things decide whether a EC1V job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.

Old Street walls, not generic walls

We expect often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — and with 28% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in EC1V, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — with 52% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.

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.

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. Red-route roundabout with no kerbside loading, goods-lift booking in the towers and gated estate yards.

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. Old Street (Northern, Great Northern) is the nearest station, so a EC1V visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.

Fixed prices

End of tenancy clearance prices in Old Street

Fixed prices for EC1V and the rest of Islington. 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.
End of tenancy clearance price guide for Old Street EC1V
JobFromTypical timeWhat sets the price
Studio or one-bed left items clear£1401–2 hrsPriced 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£3202–4 hrsA 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£5530–45 minOne 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£1801–2 hrsCommunal 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£2202–3 hrsBooked 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£480Half dayOne 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.

Domestic prices are what you pay, with no VAT to add. Where an agent or landlord needs the job invoiced to a managing company, that invoice is issued plus VAT at 20% as a business supply. Access charges, CPZ suspensions and hazardous items are itemised on the quote before booking.

Scope

What's included in Old Street

The same scope across EC1V, whether the job is a single item or a full room.

Included in the price

  • On EC1V jobs: same-day and next-day slots that can be booked directly against a check-out appointment time, with 98% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
  • In Old Street: photographic record of the cleared property, timestamped for the landlord's or agent's file, the way it is done on Old Street jobs
  • Sorting of items left behind for donation, recycling or disposal, with a note of what went where — including end of tenancy clearance prices
  • Standard on Islington bookings: removal of communal bin store and storage cupboard items included in the let, arranged with London Borough of Islington where the kerb needs it
  • On EC1V jobs: waste transfer note issued where the job is invoiced to a letting agent or managing company, end of tenancy clearance included
  • In Old Street: coordination with the inventory clerk's check-out time so the property is empty for the walk-round, sized for the red-route roundabout with no kerbside loading, goods-lift booking in the towers and gated estate yards

Not included

  • The end of tenancy clean itself, quoted and booked separately unless taken as the combined package, and we will say so before the EC1V visit rather than on the day
  • Structural damage repair, redecoration or making good marks left by furniture, outside the fixed price on Old Street bookings
  • Items the outgoing tenant disputes ownership of, which we leave in place pending agreement, quoted separately if you need it arranged in EC1V
  • 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 Old Street

Working in Old Street

Old Street EC1V at a glance

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Old Street — the numbers that actually change a end of tenancy clearance quote.

Walk Old Street from Old Street roundabout and Bunhill Fields burial ground outwards and the post-war pattern is obvious: 98% of the 4,949 households in EC1V live in flats, 2% in houses.

Owner-occupation runs at 19% in Old Street, so alongside the 28% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.

Old Street substrates run to often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — and with 28% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — with 52% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is the mistake that costs a EC1V customer twice.

Two streets can behave very differently in Old Street: the roundabout, tech offices and warehouse conversions on the City fringe. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Old Street sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.

Getting to the door matters as much as the job: red-route roundabout with no kerbside loading, goods-lift booking in the towers and gated estate yards. Old Street (Northern, Great Northern) is the nearest station, 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.
