Overview

End of tenancy clearance in Lee SE12, explained

End of tenancy clearance in Lee SE12 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Lewisham, most of them mainly Victorian. 6,151 households sit inside this SE12 patch, 39% of them flats, so we quote on access near The Manor House and its gardens rather than a London average.

How it works

How end of tenancy clearance works in Lee

Five steps, the same on every SE12 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In SE12, Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings — with 18% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first 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 Lee customers book us

What follows is specific to Lee: its walls, its access and the paperwork Lewisham 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. Lee (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE12 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.

Lee walls, not generic walls

We expect solid London stock brick in SE12, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, which is why London Borough of Lewisham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in SE12, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Lee stock goes, where 60% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.

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. Driveways on many streets; Lee High Road is a red route with short bays.

Fixed prices

End of tenancy clearance prices in Lee

Fixed prices for SE12 and the rest of Lewisham. 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 Lee SE12
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 Lee

The same scope across SE12, whether the job is a single item or a full room.

Included in the price

  • In Lee: same-day and next-day slots that can be booked directly against a check-out appointment time, sized for the driveways on many streets; lee high road is a red route with short bays
  • On SE12 jobs: photographic record of the cleared property, timestamped for the landlord's or agent's file, end of tenancy clearance included
  • Standard on Lewisham bookings: sorting of items left behind for donation, recycling or disposal, with a note of what went where, with 6,151 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
  • Removal of communal bin store and storage cupboard items included in the let, checked on every SE12 visit
  • In Lee: waste transfer note issued where the job is invoiced to a letting agent or managing company, timed against the walk in from Lee (Southeastern)
  • On SE12 jobs: coordination with the inventory clerk's check-out time so the property is empty for the walk-round, agreed on the doorstep in Lee before anything is unpacked

Not included

  • Structural damage repair, redecoration or making good marks left by furniture, outside the fixed price on Lee bookings
  • Items the outgoing tenant disputes ownership of, which we leave in place pending agreement, and we will say so before the SE12 visit rather than on the day

Working in Lee

Lee SE12 at a glance

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

6,151 households sit inside the SE12 neighbourhood covering Lee. The build is mainly Victorian, the tenure profile owner-occupier-led, and 39% of those homes are flats.

The owner-occupier-led mix here (60% owned, 22% privately rented) means a SE12 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.

Lee substrates run to solid London stock brick in SE12, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, which is why London Borough of Lewisham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Lee stock goes, where 60% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the mistake that costs a SE12 customer twice.

Lee 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 — manor House library, Lee Green's shops and streets of interwar houses — which is why a SE12 quote is not a Lewisham average.

Driveways on many streets; Lee High Road is a red route with short bays. Nearest station is Lee (Southeastern), 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.

Common questions

End of tenancy clearance in Lee SE12 — your questions.

  • How much does end of tenancy clearance cost in Lee SE12?

    Studio or one-bed left items clear starts at £140 in Lee on the Lee rounds — and 27% one-person households here, with Lewisham parking rules in play, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. How much was actually left behind, not the size of the property on SE12 jobs. A one-bed with a full house of abandoned furniture costs more than a three-bed left broom-clean in this 39% flats neighbourhood, with 6,151 households on this patch.

  • Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Lee SE12?

    Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions around Lee (Southeastern), with a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Lee most weeks in this 39% flats neighbourhood, with this being London Borough of Lewisham territory.

  • How long does flat-pack assembly take in Lee?

    5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level for Lee (SE12) addresses, with Lewisham parking rules in play.

  • Will a built wardrobe fit through a Lee doorway?

    That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on the Lee rounds. With 39% of Lee homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on Lewisham bookings — and 27% one-person households here, with this being London Borough of Lewisham territory, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.

  • How quickly can you reach Lee from your Lewisham round?

    The Manor House and its gardens is the marker we route to for Lee (SE12) addresses — and 60% of Lee homes being houses, with 60% owner-occupation locally, and driveways on many streets; Lee High Road is a red route with short bays. A SE12 slot added to an existing Lewisham round usually lands the same week rather than the next on the streets near The Manor House and its gardens, with 18% social-rented stock nearby.

  • Is same-day or evening end of tenancy clearance available in Lewisham?

    Next-day as standard, same-day where the check-out appointment allows a morning booking on Lewisham bookings. Weekend slots are available for agents working to a Saturday move-out in this 39% flats neighbourhood. Lee sits close to Lee (Southeastern), with Lewisham parking rules in play, so we can usually add a SE12 job to an existing Lewisham round at short notice for Lee (SE12) addresses.

  • Do you handle difficult access in Lee?

    Driveways on many streets; Lee High Road is a red route with short bays on the Lee rounds. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Lewisham it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards for Lee (SE12) addresses — and this being a short walk from Lee (Southeastern), with 39% of homes here being flats.
