Ealing · UB5 · Hoarder clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Northolt fitters · Fixed written pricesBooking hoarder clearance near Northala Fields? Wide estate roads, driveways and easy turning space throughout, and that is planned into the slot rather than discovered on the day. Prices start at £240 and are fixed before we travel. Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
Booked mostly by mixed-tenure households around Northolt, hoarder clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £240. With 48% of Northolt's 9,850 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in UB5 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
We talk through the situation with whoever is coordinating — family member, social worker or the individual themselves — before any visit is booked.
Step 2
A schedule that suits the household is set, whether that is one long day or several shorter visits, rather than a schedule that suits the van.
Step 3
Every room is worked through by hand, with valuables, documents and anything flagged by the family set aside before waste is loaded.
Step 4
Any contaminated or soiled material is bagged separately under PPE and moved on its own licensed disposal route.
Step 5
Once the contents are out, a deep clean is booked and the property handed back photographed, with no images shared beyond the family.
Why choose us
Same-week for a single room, one to two weeks for a severe multi-room clear where the pace has to be agreed with the household or the professional managing the case first. Northolt (Central) is the nearest station, so a UB5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect lath and plaster over timber studs in UB5, with solid brick on the party and external walls, where 46% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in UB5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster, and with 23% one-person households in Northolt, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Registered waste carrier with a transfer note for every load and a separate consignment route for biohazard material. Staff are briefed on discretion and safeguarding before any hoarding job, and no photograph leaves the file without written permission.
Two to four operatives depending on severity, with PPE for biohazard handling and a plain, unmarked vehicle available on request. Wide estate roads, driveways and easy turning space throughout.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single room clearance | £240 | 3–4 hrs | One badly affected room sorted by hand rather than shovelled, because valuables and paperwork can be mixed into the same pile as rubbish. |
| One-bed flat, moderate hoarding | £620 | 1 day | Every room sorted, walkways reopened and a full van run booked, priced for the volume rather than the floor area since a hoarded flat holds far more than an ordinary one. |
| Two/three-bed house, severe hoarding | £1,450 | 2–3 days | Multiple vehicle loads and a phased sort across every room, often with items stacked to ceiling height that have to be worked down layer by layer for safety. |
| Biohazard and sharps handling, per visit | £180 | 1–2 hrs | Contaminated bedding, soiled material or found sharps need PPE, a separate waste stream and a licensed disposal route rather than a standard bag. |
| Garden and outbuilding clearance, added | £280 | half day | Hoarding frequently extends into a garden, shed or garage, which is quoted separately because the access and the waste mix are different from the house. |
| Post-clearance deep clean handover | £340 | 4–6 hrs | Once the contents are out, a deep clean is often what actually returns the property to a liveable or lettable state, and we hand it over photographed. |

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 Northolt
9,850 households sit inside the UB5 neighbourhood covering Northolt. The build is inter-war, the tenure profile mixed-tenure, and 48% of those homes are flats.
The mixed-tenure mix here (46% owned, 26% privately rented) means a UB5 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Walls are lath and plaster over timber studs in UB5, with solid brick on the party and external walls, where 46% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fixing that matters in Northolt is chosen on site — the usual failure here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster, and with 23% one-person households in Northolt, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Northolt 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 — the aerodrome, Northala Fields' pyramid mounds and post-war estate housing — which is why a UB5 quote is not a Ealing average.
Wide estate roads, driveways and easy turning space throughout. Nearest station is Northolt (Central), and two to four operatives depending on severity, with PPE for biohazard handling and a plain, unmarked vehicle available on request.

Volume and severity, not floor area.
