Overview
End of tenancy clearance in New Cross SE14, explained
End of tenancy clearance in New Cross SE14 is a fixed-price visit for social-housing-led homes in Lewisham, most of them mainly Victorian. 11,771 households sit inside this SE14 patch, 73% of them flats, so we quote on access near Goldsmiths, University of London rather than a London average.
How it works
How end of tenancy clearance works in New Cross
Five steps, the same on every SE14 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block, as the New Cross stock goes, where 30% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year 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 New Cross customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a New Cross wall.
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. New Cross (Overground, Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE14 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
New Cross walls, not generic walls
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — and with 33% one-person households in New Cross, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in SE14, 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 — measured on the walk in from New Cross (Overground, Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map.
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 New Cross
Fixed prices for SE14 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.
| 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. |

New Cross SE14 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers New Cross — the numbers that actually change a end of tenancy clearance quote.
Census 2021 puts New Cross at 11,771 households with a median age of 31.9. The mainly Victorian stock is social-housing-led, which is why 27% houses and 73% flats need different handling in SE14.
Private renting sits at 34% and owner-occupation at 30%; the first group books end of tenancy clearance at short notice, the second plans it.
Expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — and with 33% one-person households in New Cross, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site behind the plaster in SE14. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — measured on the walk in from New Cross (Overground, Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows New Cross knows the pattern near Goldsmiths, University of London: goldsmiths' campus, the Venue and student-heavy Victorian streets. We plan the SE14 visit around it. New Cross is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: september student turnover, New Cross Road red route and narrow permit-only streets. New Cross (Overground, Southeastern) 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.

With 73% of New Cross homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on the streets near Goldsmiths, University of London — and a median age of 32 in this neighbourhood, with 33% one-person households here, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
