Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Camberwell fitters · Fixed written pricesLooking for end of tenancy clearance in Camberwell SE5? We work in Camberwell most weeks — georgian Camberwell Grove, the art college and King's College Hospital — and price end of tenancy clearance against that reality rather than a London average. Fixed written quote from £140, insured fitters, every fixing torqued, and the flat-pack packaging taken away.
Overview
This page prices end of tenancy clearance for Camberwell SE5 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 24% privately rented and 12,806 households in total. Work starts at £140, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Southwark 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. Denmark Hill (Overground, Thameslink) is the nearest station, so a SE5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, the pattern behind 12,806 households inside the SE5 neighbourhood in SE5, 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, as the Camberwell stock goes, and with 24% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
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. Hospital-area restrictions, narrow Georgian streets and steep front steps.
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. They did an excellent job yet again… Read in full →

Working in Camberwell
12,806 households sit inside the SE5 neighbourhood covering Camberwell. The build is Georgian and early Victorian, the tenure profile social-housing-led, and 83% of those homes are flats.
The social-housing-led mix here (31% owned, 24% privately rented) means a SE5 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Camberwell substrates run to often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, the pattern behind 12,806 households inside the SE5 neighbourhood. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Camberwell stock goes, and with 24% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the mistake that costs a SE5 customer twice.
Camberwell sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — georgian Camberwell Grove, the art college and King's College Hospital — which is why a SE5 quote is not a Southwark average.
On access, hospital-area restrictions, narrow Georgian streets and steep front steps — one reason two operatives with a Luton van as standard, scaling to a second vehicle for a full three-bed or a property with no lift. Fitters travelling in use Denmark Hill (Overground, Thameslink).

Studio or one-bed left items clear starts at £140 in Camberwell across SE5, with 44% social-rented stock nearby — and this being London Borough of Southwark territory, 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 this side of Southwark. A one-bed with a full house of abandoned furniture costs more than a three-bed left broom-clean for Camberwell (SE5) addresses, with this being a short walk from Denmark Hill (Overground, Thameslink).
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions in this 83% flats neighbourhood, with 31% owner-occupation locally. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Camberwell most weeks on this side of Southwark, with this being a short walk from Denmark Hill (Overground, Thameslink).
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on the streets near Camberwell Green and the South London Gallery, with 44% social-rented stock nearby.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on Southwark bookings. With 83% of Camberwell homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm in this 83% flats neighbourhood — and 31% owner-occupation locally, with 17% of Camberwell homes being houses, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Hospital-area restrictions, narrow Georgian streets and steep front steps on the streets near Camberwell Green and the South London Gallery.

Registered waste carrier. A waste transfer note is issued on request for Camberwell (SE5) addresses, with 31% owner-occupation locally, which most managing agents keep on file alongside the check-out report and deposit deduction paperwork.

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 83% flats neighbourhood, with 24% of SE5 homes being privately rented — and 17% of Camberwell homes being houses, which we leave in place pending agreement; Hazardous household waste such as old paint tins or gas canisters, booked as a separate collection.
