Fixed prices

House and flat clearance prices in Barnet

Fixed prices for Barnet, agreed before the crew is booked. Volume first, then access. A second-floor flat with no lift, a shared stairwell or a permit-only frontage adds crew time to the same amount of furniture. Where ULEZ, controlled parking zones and stair access apply in Barnet, they are itemised rather than rolled into an hourly rate.
House and flat clearance price guide for Barnet
JobFromTypical timeWhat sets the price
Studio or one-bed flat£2802–3 hrsUsually a half to three-quarter Luton load once wardrobes and a bed base are broken down.
Two-bed flat or maisonette£4503–5 hrsTwo bedrooms of furniture plus a kitchen strip typically fills one van and part of a second.
Three-bed house£6505–7 hrsLoft, shed and garage contents are what push a three-bed past a single load.
Four-bed house or larger£9501 dayTwo vans and three or four crew, with multiple transfer-station runs across the day.
Probate clearance with valuation set-aside£420By surveyPaperwork, photographs and items set aside for the executor take time a straight clear does not.
Single room or garage clear£1601–2 hrsPriced on the volume that leaves the property, so a packed garage costs more than an empty spare room.

Prices are for the total volume cleared, agreed before we start. Landlord, executor and letting-agent invoices are issued plus VAT at 20% with the waste transfer note attached. Permits, bay suspensions, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge, where they apply, appear as separate lines in the quote.

Working in Barnet

Why Barnet is not a generic London job

Hampstead Garden Suburb and Brent Cross is the landmark; the working detail below is what actually changes the price and the method in Barnet.

The housing stock

What our crews walk into in Barnet is 1930s semis with bay windows, mock-tudor detached houses, garden-suburb arts and crafts homes and new towers at colindale, and the mix changes street by street — Colindale (NW9), East Finchley (N2) and Finchley (N3) each behave differently on the day.

Access, parking and permits

London Borough of Barnet sets the constraint: mostly driveway parking, but golders green and finchley central have tight cpzs and busy a-road frontages. Locally that means every new block requires booked goods lifts and loading bays; estate roads are gated and narrower terraced streets near the station with permit bays; driveways further out. Barnet sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.

London Borough of Barnet rules

Using London Borough of Barnet's bulky collection is a legitimate option in Barnet; where it falls down is items over the size limit, same-week deadlines and anything from a communal area. Those are the jobs we pick up.

How the borough got this way

Barnet took its present shape because coaching villages along the great north road, filled in by metroland semis after the northern line arrived in the 1930s.

Scope

What's included in Barnet

The same scope everywhere in the borough, whether the job is in Colindale or Whetstone.

Included in the price

  • Full property clear — lofts, cellars, sheds, garages and gardens included when surveyed
  • Dismantling of wardrobes, beds and units so they fit through London doorways and lifts
  • Documents, photographs and anything you flag set aside rather than binned
  • Broom-clean finish and a same-day waste transfer note

Not included

  • Carpet lifting and skirting removal unless it is quoted as a strip-out
  • Asbestos, chemicals, paint and gas bottles — these need a licensed hazardous carrier
  • Deep cleaning after the clear, which we quote separately as an end-of-tenancy clean

Method

How a Barnet booking runs

Five steps, the same on every Barnet job, so you know what happens before you commit.
  1. Step 1

    Survey

    Video walk-through or a visit; we count rooms, lofts and outbuildings so the volume figure is real.

  2. Step 2

    Set-aside list

    You tell us what must be kept — paperwork, jewellery, photographs — and it is bagged separately and handed over.

  3. Step 3

    Sort for reuse

    Furniture in good order goes to reuse partners; textiles, metal, WEEE and wood are split on the van.

  4. Step 4

    Clear and dismantle

    Everything is carried out, with flat-pack units broken down where a lift or stairwell will not take them whole.

  5. Step 5

    Hand back

    Broom-clean rooms, photos of the finished property and the waste transfer note by email.

Coverage

12 named areas across EN4, EN5, N11, N12, N14, N2, N20 and N3. Each has its own page with local access notes.
Local questions

House and flat clearance in Barnet — your questions

  • How much does a house clearance cost in Barnet?

    Studio or one-bed flat starts at £280 in Barnet, and the ladder runs up to £160 for the largest job on the table above. Volume first, then access. A second-floor flat with no lift, a shared stairwell or a permit-only frontage adds crew time to the same amount of furniture. The borough is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on — only ULEZ, which our vans are compliant with.

  • Which Barnet postcodes do you cover?

    We cover the whole borough: EN4, EN5, N11, N12, N14, N2, N20, N3, NW11 and NW4 and the rest of the Barnet outward codes. On the ground that includes Colindale, East Finchley, Finchley, Friern Barnet and New Southgate, Golders Green and Hendon.

  • How quickly can you get to Barnet?

    Executors and landlords usually book three to five days ahead; we hold same-week slots for tenancy deadlines and completion dates. North London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.

  • What about parking and permits in Barnet?

    Mostly driveway parking, but Golders Green and Finchley Central have tight CPZs and busy A-road frontages. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Barnet and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.

  • Do you work in Barnet flats and blocks with no lift?

    Yes. 1930s semis with bay windows, mock-Tudor detached houses, garden-suburb Arts and Crafts homes and new towers at Colindale is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.

  • Are you insured and licensed for work in Barnet?

    Every house clearance is carried out under our upper-tier waste carrier registration, with a waste transfer note naming the transfer station, the weight and the date. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Barnet tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.

  • Who turns up, and with what?

    A two-person crew and a Luton for flats; three or four crew and two vans for houses with lofts, cellars or garages. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Barnet postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.

  • What is not included?

    Carpet lifting and skirting removal unless it is quoted as a strip-out, Asbestos, chemicals, paint and gas bottles — these need a licensed hazardous carrier and Deep cleaning after the clear, which we quote separately as an end-of-tenancy clean. If something on that list turns up in Barnet, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.
