Overview
House and flat clearance in St Paul's EC4, explained
This page prices house and flat clearance for St Paul's EC4 specifically: post-war stock, 48% privately rented and 4,914 households in total. Work starts at £280, fixed in writing, with parking and City of London Corporation permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How house and flat clearance works in St Paul's
Five steps, the same on every EC4 job, so you know what happens before you commit. New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard on these streets — the pattern behind 4,914 households inside the EC4 neighbourhood is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Survey
Video walk-through or a visit; we count rooms, lofts and outbuildings so the volume figure is real.
Step 2
Set-aside list
You tell us what must be kept — paperwork, jewellery, photographs — and it is bagged separately and handed over.
Step 3
Sort for reuse
Furniture in good order goes to reuse partners; textiles, metal, WEEE and wood are split on the van.
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.
Step 5
Hand back
Broom-clean rooms, photos of the finished property and the waste transfer note by email.
Why choose us
Why St Paul's customers book us
What follows is specific to St Paul's: its walls, its access and the paperwork City of London agents ask for.
Crew sized to the job
A two-person crew and a Luton for flats; three or four crew and two vans for houses with lofts, cellars or garages. Pedestrianised zones and camera-enforced streets; loading needs a permit from the Corporation.
Booked around your day
Executors and landlords usually book three to five days ahead; we hold same-week slots for tenancy deadlines and completion dates. St Paul's (Central) is the nearest station, so a EC4 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
St Paul's walls, not generic walls
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in St Paul's, with metal stud partitions between rooms, which is why City of London Corporation kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in EC4, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is St Paul's gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, which is what a 98% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering St Paul's actually produces.
Fixed prices
House and flat clearance prices in St Paul's
Fixed prices for EC4 and the rest of City of London. 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.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio or one-bed flat | £280 | 2–3 hrs | Usually a half to three-quarter Luton load once wardrobes and a bed base are broken down. |
| Two-bed flat or maisonette | £450 | 3–5 hrs | Two bedrooms of furniture plus a kitchen strip typically fills one van and part of a second. |
| Three-bed house | £650 | 5–7 hrs | Loft, shed and garage contents are what push a three-bed past a single load. |
| Four-bed house or larger | £950 | 1 day | Two vans and three or four crew, with multiple transfer-station runs across the day. |
| Probate clearance with valuation set-aside | £420 | By survey | Paperwork, photographs and items set aside for the executor take time a straight clear does not. |
| Single room or garage clear | £160 | 1–2 hrs | Priced on the volume that leaves the property, so a packed garage costs more than an empty spare room. |

Scope
What's included in St Paul's
The same scope across EC4, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on City of London bookings: full property clear — lofts, cellars, sheds, garages and gardens included when surveyed, with 4,914 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- Dismantling of wardrobes, beds and units so they fit through London doorways and lifts, checked on every EC4 visit
- In St Paul's: documents, photographs and anything you flag set aside rather than binned, sized for the pedestrianised zones and camera-enforced streets; loading needs a permit from the corporation
- On EC4 jobs: broom-clean finish and a same-day waste transfer note, house and flat clearance london included
Not included
- Carpet lifting and skirting removal unless it is quoted as a strip-out, handled by City of London Corporation or a specialist contractor instead
- Asbestos, chemicals, paint and gas bottles — these need a licensed hazardous carrier, which we refer on to the right trade in St Paul's
- Deep cleaning after the clear, which we quote separately as an end-of-tenancy clean, outside the fixed price on St Paul's bookings

Working in St Paul's
St Paul's EC4 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers St Paul's — the numbers that actually change a house and flat clearance quote.
4,914 households sit inside the EC4 neighbourhood covering St Paul's. The build is post-war, the tenure profile renter-heavy, and 98% of those homes are flats.
Because 48% of St Paul's is privately rented and 15% socially rented, a lot of EC4 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Walls are dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in St Paul's, with metal stud partitions between rooms, which is why City of London Corporation kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded, so the fixing that matters in St Paul's is chosen on site — the usual failure here is St Paul's gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, which is what a 98% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering St Paul's actually produces.
Cathedral precinct, One New Change shopping and the streets running down to the Millennium Bridge. That character decides the practical detail of house and flat clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. St Paul's sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Pedestrianised zones and camera-enforced streets; loading needs a permit from the Corporation. Nearest station is St Paul's (Central), and a two-person crew and a Luton for flats; three or four crew and two vans for houses with lofts, cellars or garages.

Common questions
House and flat clearance in St Paul's EC4 — your questions.
How much does house and flat clearance cost in St Paul's EC4?
Studio or one-bed flat starts at £280 in St Paul's in this 98% flats neighbourhood, with City of London parking rules in play, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter 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 in St Paul's, with this being City of London Corporation territory.
What does a full flat clearance cost in St Paul's EC4?
A studio or one-bed starts at £280 and a two-bed at £450, quoted from a video walk-through so the volume figure is real in this 98% flats neighbourhood, with 51% one-person households here. With 98% of St Paul's homes being flats, most local jobs land in that band once wardrobes and bed bases are broken down for St Paul's (EC4) addresses, with 4,914 households on this patch.
Do you handle probate clearances in City of London?
Yes — from £420, including a set-aside list. Paperwork, photographs and anything the executor flags is bagged separately and handed over on City of London bookings, with 98% of homes here being flats, with photos of each room before and after for the estate file. On St Paul's jobs we confirm it when the slot is booked, not on the day.
Can you clear a house with a loft and garage in St Paul's?
Yes. 2% of homes here are houses, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood — and this being City of London Corporation territory, and lofts, sheds and garages are the contents that push a three-bed past a single Luton — we survey them up front so the price does not move on the day across EC4.
Will you need a permit or bay suspension in EC4?
Where City of London Corporation controls the frontage, yes on the streets near St Paul's Cathedral. We arrange the suspension and show it as its own line in the quote on City of London bookings. 37% of St Paul's homes are owner-occupied, with 15% social-rented stock nearby, and completion-day clears are exactly where an unbooked bay costs a whole morning on the St Paul's rounds.
Do letting agents in St Paul's accept your paperwork?
Yes — every clear ends with a waste transfer note naming the transfer station, weight and date on the streets near St Paul's Cathedral, with 4,914 households on this patch. It matters here: 48% of local homes are privately rented and agents ask for it at check-out for St Paul's (EC4) addresses, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood.
What is not included in house and flat clearance in St Paul's?
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 in this 98% flats neighbourhood — and 2% of St Paul's homes being houses, with this being a short walk from St Paul's (Central), which we quote separately as an end-of-tenancy clean. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the St Paul's EC4 price you agree is the price you pay on City of London bookings, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood.
