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
Two to four operatives depending on severity, with PPE for biohazard handling and a plain, unmarked vehicle available on request. Extremely tight kerbside, mews arches under 2.1m and listed interiors needing floor and stair protection.
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. Bond Street (Central, Jubilee, Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, so a W1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in W1, with metal stud partitions between rooms — and extremely tight kerbside, mews arches under 2.1m and listed interiors needing floor and stair protection in W1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — the pattern behind 3,555 households inside the W1 neighbourhood.
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.
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 →
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 Mayfair
Walk Mayfair from Berkeley Square outwards and the mixed-era pattern is obvious: 88% of the 3,555 households in W1 live in flats, 12% in houses.
57% of households rent privately and 32% own, which is why hoarder clearance demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Mayfair substrates run to dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in W1, with metal stud partitions between rooms — and extremely tight kerbside, mews arches under 2.1m and listed interiors needing floor and stair protection. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — the pattern behind 3,555 households inside the W1 neighbourhood is the mistake that costs a W1 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Mayfair knows the pattern near Berkeley Square: grosvenor and Berkeley squares, private members' clubs and the flagship stores of Bond Street. We plan the W1 visit around it. Mayfair sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Extremely tight kerbside, mews arches under 2.1m and listed interiors needing floor and stair protection. Nearest station is Bond Street (Central, Jubilee, Elizabeth line), and two to four operatives depending on severity, with PPE for biohazard handling and a plain, unmarked vehicle available on request.

Single room clearance starts at £240 in Mayfair on Westminster bookings, with Berkeley Square a few streets away, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Volume and severity, not floor area. A single room stacked to the ceiling can take longer than an ordinary two-bed flat on W1 jobs — and 3,555 households on this patch, with this being a short walk from Bond Street (Central, Jubilee, Elizabeth line), and biohazard material adds its own handling cost regardless of the room count.
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on W1 jobs, with 47% one-person households here. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Mayfair most weeks around Bond Street (Central, Jubilee, Elizabeth line), with Westminster parking rules in play.
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 Berkeley Square, with 88% of homes here being flats. Near Berkeley Square that usually means an earlier start so the van can be unloaded once.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on the Mayfair rounds. With 88% of Mayfair homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on W1 jobs, with 32% owner-occupation locally — and this being a short walk from Bond Street (Central, Jubilee, Elizabeth line), so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
All three. With 57% of Mayfair privately rented and 32% owner-occupied, roughly half the W1 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door in this 88% flats neighbourhood — and a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood, with 11% social-rented stock nearby.
1m and listed interiors needing floor and stair protection on the Mayfair rounds. A W1 slot added to an existing Westminster round usually lands the same week rather than the next on W1 jobs, with 88% of homes here being flats.
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 on W1 jobs — and Berkeley Square a few streets away, with 57% of W1 homes being privately rented. Mayfair sits close to Bond Street (Central, Jubilee, Elizabeth line) on this side of Westminster — and 3,555 households on this patch, with Berkeley Square a few streets away, so we can usually add a W1 job to an existing Westminster round at short notice.
