How booking works
Talk to us privately
Call 020 8124 1823 about clutter, rooms and access. If comfortable, email photos or video to info@helloservices.co.uk, excluding personal documents and other people. We listen without judgement.
Agree the clean-up and quote
Agree retained items, sorting, cleaning, booked removals and reorganisation. Flag sharps, pests, contamination or unsafe access for separate assessment. Check the quote and exclusions; nothing is discarded without consent.
A discreet, fully equipped team
We bring equipment and products for the agreed work, protect retained belongings, clean accessible surfaces and complete booked removals or reorganisation. Together we review the checklist and any specialist follow-up.

Benefits of a considerate hoarder clean-up
Reclaim usable space without pressure to discard valued belongings.
Reclaim usable rooms
Agreed sorting restores access to beds, seating and kitchen surfaces.
Clearer access
Fewer obstacles improve movement; serious fire risks need fire-service advice.
Reach covered surfaces
Decluttering exposes floors and fittings for intensive cleaning, rather than cleaning around piles.
Keep control
Keep-and-review categories protect possessions. Booked reorganisation supports daily use; it does not replace mental health care.

Amazing one-off deep clean
“We are over the moon with our one-off deep clean, the team (led by Mo, i think he said his name was!) turned up early and were done within 4 hours, we can't believe how much they got done in that time. They went absolutely above and beyond and cleaned inside cabinets/the fridge even though they were fairly full (we weren't expecting it!), took out our bins, cleaned the microwave - our oven also looks good as new. So impressed with the job and will definitely be using the service again!”

“We needed a deep clean of our mum’s property before it went on the market. Quote was prompt and the team arrived on the day at the time agreed. The property was cleaned immaculately and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this company to anyone, we would certainly use them again.”
- ★★★★★Verified customer
“The service you provided was excellent. The team turned up on time. On the first visit the work had to be rescheduled as it was as a lot more than expected and had to be rescheduled. The second visit the same team turned up and with out hesitation they knew what they had to do and got straight on with the task. Explained everything that they would be doing in depth and if there was anything that I was not happy with to let them know. The finished job was outstanding considering the state of what environment they were working in. I’m very pleased with the service the team and hello service have provided.”

Hoarder Cleaning in Durham: local guide
Durham's central terraces, student lets and shared houses need ownership decisions as well as access planning. Hilly streets and limited central parking make entrance details useful; Newton Hall and Belmont addresses need their own arrangements.
Identify whose belongings they are
In a shared house, decluttering should not treat an absent housemate's belongings as abandoned. Mark private rooms, shared possessions and anything awaiting an owner's decision. For cluttered house cleaning, establish a separate retained area for each person, especially when tenancy changes and personal paperwork make ownership less obvious.
Distinguish household and landlord waste
A hoarding clean-up in a rental needs a clear disposal plan. Durham recycling guidance prohibits business and landlord waste at household centres. Check the property's council address before arranging resident services. Our assessed removals require suitable disposal arrangements, not an assumption that a landlord's load can use a household facility.
Keep shared access clear
Explain slopes, parking and the entrance route when discussing intensive cleaning. Do not use communal corridors to hold sorted bags. The fire service's waste advice warns against storing flammable rubbish in corridors or near escape routes. Room reorganisation should preserve shared access while keeping each person's retained items identifiable.

ONS UK House Price IndexFrequently asked questions
Can you work around private bedrooms?
Yes. Specify excluded rooms and who can authorise access. Discreet cleaning in shared accommodation should respect each occupant's belongings rather than assume collective permission.
What should I mention about central access?
Describe parking options, slopes and the route indoors. Our hoarder cleaners can assess the practical setup without assuming every central Durham terrace has identical access.
Can old laptops go to recycling?
Review devices during possessions sorting. Council recycling guidance makes data removal your responsibility; centres do not provide secure erasure or confidentiality for deposited items.
Will bulky collectors enter the house?
The council bulky service cannot collect from inside properties. Plan the movement of booked items separately, rather than leaving furniture in shared passages.
Is fire advice separate from cleaning?
Yes. The fire service offers home fire safety visits. Contact it directly about concerns; thorough cleaning is not a substitute for fire advice.
Does clearance include a housemate's possessions?
Hoarder house clearance includes only agreed, assessed removals. Uncertain ownership means an item should remain for clarification, not be included simply because it obstructs cleaning.
