London house clearance · East London
We work in Havering every week — london's most suburban edge — romford's market and nightlife, hornchurch's semis and green belt beyond upminster. House and flat clearance is priced against that reality, not a national average.
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. |

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 Havering
The stock in Havering is interwar and post-war semis, bungalows in upminster and new flats around romford station, and the mix changes street by street — Collier Row (RM5), Cranham (RM14) and Elm Park (RM12) each behave differently on the day.
London Borough of Havering sets the constraint: driveways and wide roads throughout; only romford town centre needs bay suspensions. Locally that means wide suburban roads, driveways and easy kerbside loading and the easiest access in london — wide roads, drives and level thresholds. Havering sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
Using London Borough of Havering's bulky collection is a legitimate option in Havering; 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.
Havering took its present shape because essex market towns and farmland that became commuter suburbia after the lms and district lines arrived.
Scope
Method
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.
Coverage
Also in this borough
Single items, garden waste, builders' waste and office strip-outs across the borough.
When the load is moving somewhere rather than going to a transfer station.
Local moving crews working from the same borough, not across the city.
The property cleaned before your things arrive, not around them.
Studio or one-bed flat starts at £280 in Havering, 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.
We cover the whole borough: RM1, RM11, RM12, RM13, RM14, RM2, RM3, RM5 and RM7. On the ground that includes Collier Row, Cranham, Elm Park, Gidea Park, Harold Wood and Harold Hill and Hornchurch.
Executors and landlords usually book three to five days ahead; we hold same-week slots for tenancy deadlines and completion dates. East London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Driveways and wide roads throughout; only Romford town centre needs bay suspensions. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Havering and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. Interwar and post-war semis, bungalows in Upminster and new flats around Romford station 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.
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 Havering tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
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 Havering postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
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 Havering, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.
