Property types we clear

  • Ex-council and high-rise flats
  • Purpose-built retirement flats
  • Detached and semi-detached homes with garages or lofts
  • Garages, sheds, and lock-ups

Local details that affect the job

London logistics change street by street. Before we quote, we check:

  • Parking. Many boroughs need a suspension or a permit for a van.
  • Access. Stairs, narrow doors, and no lift all add time.
  • Congestion and ULEZ charges. These apply in central and inner areas.
  • Waste rules. Each borough has its own transfer stations and rules.

We include these costs in the written quote. You do not get a surprise later.

Working with executors who are not nearby

You do not need to live in London to instruct us. Many executors live in another county or abroad.

We can:

  • Collect keys from a solicitor, agent, or neighbour
  • Send photos and video of the contents before we start
  • Set aside papers, jewellery, and personal items for the estate
  • Send waste transfer notes and an invoice for the estate accounts

Not sure if we cover your postcode?

Send us the postcode. We will tell you the same day whether we can help.

If the property is outside our normal area, we will say so plainly rather than quote for work we cannot do well.

Talk to us

We survey the property, then send a written quote. No fixed price is given before we see the contents.

Call 0794 455 7700 or email info@houseandofficeclearance.co.uk.

Not sure where to start?

We'll walk the property with you, explain what happens to each category of contents, and put it in writing.
