Overview
House and flat clearance in Kew TW9, explained
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Kew Gardens, house and flat clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £280. With 41% of Kew's 4,163 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in TW9 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How house and flat clearance works in Kew
Five steps, the same on every TW9 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In TW9, Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings — measured on the walk in from Kew Gardens (District, Overground) rather than assumed from a map 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 Kew customers book us
What follows is specific to Kew: its walls, its access and the paperwork Richmond upon Thames 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. Narrow streets with permit bays, level crossings and conservation-area frontages.
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. Kew Gardens (District, Overground) is the nearest station, so a TW9 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Kew walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in TW9, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, and with 30% one-person households in Kew, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in TW9, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Kew stock goes, the reality on the streets around Kew Gardens.
Fixed prices
House and flat clearance prices in Kew
Fixed prices for TW9 and the rest of Richmond upon Thames. 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 Kew
The same scope across TW9, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In Kew: full property clear — lofts, cellars, sheds, garages and gardens included when surveyed, timed against the walk in from Kew Gardens (District, Overground)
- On TW9 jobs: dismantling of wardrobes, beds and units so they fit through London doorways and lifts, agreed on the doorstep in Kew before anything is unpacked
- Standard on Richmond upon Thames bookings: documents, photographs and anything you flag set aside rather than binned, allowing for the 30% of TW9 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Broom-clean finish and a same-day waste transfer note, noted on the Kew job sheet so the next visit starts from it
Not included
- Carpet lifting and skirting removal unless it is quoted as a strip-out, quoted separately if you need it arranged in TW9
- Asbestos, chemicals, paint and gas bottles — these need a licensed hazardous carrier, outside the fixed price on Kew bookings
- Deep cleaning after the clear, which we quote separately as an end-of-tenancy clean, and we will say so before the TW9 visit rather than on the day

Kew TW9 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Kew — the numbers that actually change a house and flat clearance quote.
Kew TW9 is mainly Edwardian and owner-occupier-led: 41% of homes here are flats and 59% are houses, across 4,163 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 30% of Kew is privately rented and 6% socially rented, a lot of TW9 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect solid London stock brick in TW9, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, and with 30% one-person households in Kew, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site behind the plaster in TW9. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Kew stock goes, the reality on the streets around Kew Gardens is the fault we are called back to undo.
The botanic gardens, the green and Edwardian family streets around them. That character decides the practical detail of house and flat clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. Kew is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: narrow streets with permit bays, level crossings and conservation-area frontages. Kew Gardens (District, Overground) is the nearest station, 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 Kew TW9 — your questions.
How much does house and flat clearance cost in Kew TW9?
Studio or one-bed flat starts at £280 in Kew on this side of Richmond upon Thames, with 30% of TW9 homes being privately rented, 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 the streets near Kew Gardens, with 59% of Kew homes being houses.
What does a full flat clearance cost in Kew TW9?
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 the Kew rounds, with 30% one-person households here. With 41% of Kew homes being flats, most local jobs land in that band once wardrobes and bed bases are broken down on Richmond upon Thames bookings, with 4,163 households on this patch.
Do you handle probate clearances in Richmond upon Thames?
Yes — from £420, including a set-aside list. Paperwork, photographs and anything the executor flags is bagged separately and handed over on TW9 jobs, with this being a short walk from Kew Gardens (District, Overground), with photos of each room before and after for the estate file.
Can you clear a house with a loft and garage in Kew?
Yes. 59% of homes here are houses, with 64% owner-occupation locally, 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 this side of Richmond upon Thames — and Kew Gardens a few streets away.
Will you need a permit or bay suspension in TW9?
Where London Borough of Richmond upon Thames controls the frontage, yes in Kew. We arrange the suspension and show it as its own line in the quote for Kew (TW9) addresses. 64% of Kew homes are owner-occupied, with a median age of 43 in this neighbourhood, and completion-day clears are exactly where an unbooked bay costs a whole morning in this 41% flats neighbourhood.
Do letting agents in Kew accept your paperwork?
Yes — every clear ends with a waste transfer note naming the transfer station, weight and date on the Kew rounds, with 4,163 households on this patch. It matters here: 30% of local homes are privately rented and agents ask for it at check-out on Richmond upon Thames bookings, with a median age of 43 in this neighbourhood.
Do you handle difficult access in Kew?
Narrow streets with permit bays, level crossings and conservation-area frontages across TW9. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Richmond upon Thames it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on this side of Richmond upon Thames — and a median age of 43 in this neighbourhood, with 30% one-person households here.
