Overview
Booked mostly by social-housing-led households around Oval, house and flat clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £280. With 77% of Oval's 3,633 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SE11 shape the slot length we hold.
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
We expect often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — the reality on the streets around The Kia Oval cricket ground in SE11, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in SE11, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — with 38% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.
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. Match-day road closures around the ground, red routes on Kennington Park Road and permit-only side streets.
Executors and landlords usually book three to five days ahead; we hold same-week slots for tenancy deadlines and completion dates. Oval (Northern) is the nearest station, so a SE11 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
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 →

Working in Oval
Census 2021 puts Oval at 3,633 households with a median age of 32.5. The Georgian and early Victorian stock is social-housing-led, which is why 23% houses and 77% flats need different handling in SE11.
34% of households rent privately and 28% own, which is why house and flat clearance demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Expect often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — the reality on the streets around The Kia Oval cricket ground behind the plaster in SE11. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why in SE11, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — with 38% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is the fault we are called back to undo.
Two streets can behave very differently in Oval: the cricket ground, the gasholders and Georgian terraces running back towards Kennington Park. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Oval sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Match-day road closures around the ground, red routes on Kennington Park Road and permit-only side streets. Nearest station is Oval (Northern), and a two-person crew and a Luton for flats; three or four crew and two vans for houses with lofts, cellars or garages.
