Westminster · W1 · End of tenancy clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Soho fitters · Fixed written pricesBooking end of tenancy clearance near Carnaby Street and Golden Square? Pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default, and that is planned into the slot rather than discovered on the day. Prices start at £140 and are fixed before we travel. Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
This page prices end of tenancy clearance for Soho W1 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 52% privately rented and 4,257 households in total. Work starts at £140, fixed in writing, with parking and Westminster City Council 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. Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, so a W1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, the pattern behind 4,257 households inside the W1 neighbourhood in W1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Soho gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, and with 52% 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. Pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default.
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 →
Sultan assembled our new wardrobe. Really good service. Was also able to find clearance through them. Both services were good
The guys arrived prompt at 9 am . Sorry I’m rubbish at names but I remember the one guys initials were AB . He really worked hard . Both guys were very polite and were happy to pop back up the stairs to finish dusting the bedrooms surfaces that were missed . Not one moan… Read in full →

Working in Soho
4,257 households sit inside the W1 neighbourhood covering Soho. The build is Georgian and early Victorian, the tenure profile renter-heavy, and 98% of those homes are flats.
The renter-heavy mix here (20% owned, 52% privately rented) means a W1 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, the pattern behind 4,257 households inside the W1 neighbourhood behind the plaster in W1. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Soho gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, and with 52% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the fault we are called back to undo.
Soho 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 — post-production studios, restaurants and above-shop flats packed into a Georgian grid — which is why a W1 quote is not a Westminster average.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default. Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line) 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.

Studio or one-bed left items clear starts at £140 in Soho, with 4,257 households on this patch — and Westminster 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 this side of Westminster. A one-bed with a full house of abandoned furniture costs more than a three-bed left broom-clean in this 98% flats neighbourhood, with Westminster parking rules in play.
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions in this 98% flats neighbourhood, with 52% of W1 homes being privately rented. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Soho most weeks on this side of Westminster, with Carnaby Street and Golden Square a few streets away.
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level in this 98% flats neighbourhood, with a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on the Soho rounds. With 98% of Soho homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on Westminster bookings — and 4,257 households on this patch, with 52% of W1 homes being privately rented, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Carnaby Street and Golden Square is the marker we route to on W1 jobs, with 53% one-person households here — and Carnaby Street and Golden Square a few streets away, and pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default. A W1 slot added to an existing Westminster round usually lands the same week rather than the next around Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line), with Westminster parking rules in play.
Next-day as standard, same-day where the check-out appointment allows a morning booking in this 98% flats neighbourhood. Weekend slots are available for agents working to a Saturday move-out on this side of Westminster. Soho sits close to Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line) in Soho, with Carnaby Street and Golden Square a few streets away — and 52% of W1 homes being privately rented, so we can usually add a W1 job to an existing Westminster round at short notice.
Pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default across W1, with 28% social-rented stock nearby. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in Westminster City Council it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on this side of Westminster, with 53% one-person households here.
