Hackney · N1 · House and flat clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Hoxton fitters · Fixed written pricesBooking house and flat clearance near The Museum of the Home? Low-traffic filters on side streets, permit bays and loft stairs with tight turns, and that is planned into the slot rather than discovered on the day. Prices start at £280 and are fixed before we travel. Doorframes and stair nosings are protected before wardrobes come out.
Overview
House and flat clearance in Hoxton N1 is a fixed-price visit for social-housing-led homes in Hackney, most of them Georgian and early Victorian. 7,353 households sit inside this N1 patch, 96% of them flats, so we quote on access near The Museum of the Home rather than a London average.
How it works
Step 1
Video walk-through or a visit; we count rooms, lofts and outbuildings so the volume figure is real.
Step 2
You tell us what must be kept — paperwork, jewellery, photographs — and it is bagged separately and handed over.
Step 3
Furniture in good order goes to reuse partners; textiles, metal, WEEE and wood are split on the van.
Step 4
Everything is carried out, with flat-pack units broken down where a lift or stairwell will not take them whole.
Step 5
Broom-clean rooms, photos of the finished property and the waste transfer note by email.
Why choose us
Executors and landlords usually book three to five days ahead; we hold same-week slots for tenancy deadlines and completion dates. Hoxton (Overground) is the nearest station, so a N1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, which is why London Borough of Hackney kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in N1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Hoxton gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, where 22% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
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.
A two-person crew and a Luton for flats; three or four crew and two vans for houses with lofts, cellars or garages. Low-traffic filters on side streets, permit bays and loft stairs with tight turns.
Fixed prices
| 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
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 Hoxton
7,353 households sit inside the N1 neighbourhood covering Hoxton. The build is Georgian and early Victorian, the tenure profile social-housing-led, and 96% of those homes are flats.
The social-housing-led mix here (22% owned, 33% privately rented) means a N1 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Walls are often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, which is why London Borough of Hackney kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded, so the fixing that matters in Hoxton is chosen on site — the usual failure here is Hoxton gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, where 22% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Hoxton 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 — hoxton Square, Geffrye Museum gardens and a mix of estates and converted workshops — which is why a N1 quote is not a Hackney average.
Low-traffic filters on side streets, permit bays and loft stairs with tight turns. Nearest station is Hoxton (Overground), and a two-person crew and a Luton for flats; three or four crew and two vans for houses with lofts, cellars or garages.

Studio or one-bed flat starts at £280 in Hoxton for Hoxton (N1) addresses, with 33% of N1 homes being privately rented, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked.

Yes. 3% of homes here are houses, with 7,353 households on this patch — and this being a short walk from Hoxton (Overground), 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 on Hackney bookings.
