House and flat clearance in Greenwich SE10, explained

This page prices house and flat clearance for Greenwich SE10 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 31% privately rented and 17,397 households in total.

How it works

How house and flat clearance works in Greenwich

Five steps, the same on every SE10 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In SE10, New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard — with 29% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is what we plan for here.
  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.

Why choose us

Why Greenwich customers book us

What follows is specific to Greenwich: its walls, its access and the paperwork Greenwich agents ask for.

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. Cutty Sark (DLR) is the nearest station, so a SE10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.

Greenwich walls, not generic walls

We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in SE10, with metal stud partitions between rooms, measured on the walk in from Cutty Sark (DLR) rather than assumed from a map in SE10, 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, as the Greenwich stock goes, and with 31% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.

Insured and documented

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.

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. Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access.

Fixed prices

House and flat clearance prices in Greenwich

Fixed prices for SE10 and the rest of Greenwich. 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.
House and flat clearance price guide for Greenwich SE10
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.

Scope

What's included in Greenwich

The same scope across SE10, whether the job is a single item or a full room.

Included in the price

  • In Greenwich: full property clear — lofts, cellars, sheds, garages and gardens included when surveyed, the way it is done on Greenwich jobs
  • On SE10 jobs: dismantling of wardrobes, beds and units so they fit through London doorways and lifts, with 73% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
  • Standard on Greenwich bookings: documents, photographs and anything you flag set aside rather than binned, arranged with Royal Borough of Greenwich where the kerb needs it
  • Broom-clean finish and a same-day waste transfer note — including house and flat clearance prices

Not included

  • Carpet lifting and skirting removal unless it is quoted as a strip-out, outside the fixed price on Greenwich bookings
  • Asbestos, chemicals, paint and gas bottles — these need a licensed hazardous carrier, and we will say so before the SE10 visit rather than on the day
  • Deep cleaning after the clear, which we quote separately as an end-of-tenancy clean, handled by Royal Borough of Greenwich or a specialist contractor instead

This was my second job for Hello services and I was delighted to have Adam and Sultan back again.

Working in Greenwich

Greenwich SE10 at a glance

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Greenwich — the numbers that actually change a house and flat clearance quote.

Greenwich SE10 is Georgian and early Victorian and mixed-tenure: 73% of homes here are flats and 27% are houses, across 17,397 households (ONS Census 2021).

The mixed-tenure mix here (40% owned, 31% privately rented) means a SE10 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.

Expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in SE10, with metal stud partitions between rooms, measured on the walk in from Cutty Sark (DLR) rather than assumed from a map behind the plaster in SE10. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Greenwich stock goes, and with 31% 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.

Greenwich 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 — world Heritage centre of the market, the Cutty Sark and the Observatory on the hill — which is why a SE10 quote is not a Greenwich average.

On access, cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access — one reason a two-person crew and a Luton for flats; three or four crew and two vans for houses with lofts, cellars or garages. Fitters travelling in use Cutty Sark (DLR).

Common questions

House and flat clearance in Greenwich SE10 — your questions.

  • How much does house and flat clearance cost in Greenwich SE10?

    Studio or one-bed flat starts at £280 in Greenwich across SE10, with The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark a few streets away, 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 on SE10 jobs, with 29% social-rented stock nearby.

  • What does a full flat clearance cost in Greenwich SE10?

    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 on this side of Greenwich, with this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory. With 73% of Greenwich homes being flats, most local jobs land in that band once wardrobes and bed bases are broken down across SE10, with 73% of homes here being flats.

  • Do you handle probate clearances in Greenwich?

    Yes — from £420, including a set-aside list. Paperwork, photographs and anything the executor flags is bagged separately and handed over in this 73% flats neighbourhood, with 27% of Greenwich homes being houses, with photos of each room before and after for the estate file.

  • Can you clear a house with a loft and garage in Greenwich?

    Yes. 27% of homes here are houses, with this being a short walk from Cutty Sark (DLR) — and 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented, 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 in Greenwich.

  • Will you need a permit or bay suspension in SE10?

    Where Royal Borough of Greenwich controls the frontage, yes on the Greenwich rounds. We arrange the suspension and show it as its own line in the quote on SE10 jobs. 40% of Greenwich homes are owner-occupied, with Greenwich parking rules in play, and completion-day clears are exactly where an unbooked bay costs a whole morning on the streets near The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark.

  • Do letting agents in Greenwich accept your paperwork?

    Yes — every clear ends with a waste transfer note naming the transfer station, weight and date on this side of Greenwich, with 73% of homes here being flats. It matters here: 31% of local homes are privately rented and agents ask for it at check-out across SE10, with Greenwich parking rules in play.

  • How quickly can you reach Greenwich from your Greenwich round?

    The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark is the marker we route to around Cutty Sark (DLR), with a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood — and 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented, and cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access. A SE10 slot added to an existing Greenwich round usually lands the same week rather than the next across SE10, with 17,397 households on this patch.
