Job details
Project overview
A two-bedroom maisonette in Hampstead, NW3 needed its freestanding contents removed after the owners moved out. houseclearance.co put the job in front of 4 carriers; 3 came back with a bid, and the record that was kept shows a price of £465.
It took just a week from first listing to handover – posted on 7 July 2026, completed on 14 July 2026. Before any loading could begin, the person authorising the job had to sign off a room-by-room keep/remove list, so that nothing still wanted went out with the rest.
Items removed and quantity
The inventory for this job covered:
- A sofa
- Two mattresses
- Chests of drawers
- Shelving
- Bagged clutter
Taken together, this amounted to an estimated 9–12 cubic yards of material. Fitted fixtures, hazardous waste, paint and rubble were excluded without a separate assessment, along with wall-fixed units and building rubble – items a project like this typically handles separately rather than through a house clearance.
Access and logistics
Handling this job needs to account for internal stairs and limited kerbside loading, together with a reserved loading space. Furniture may require safe disassembly where appropriate to work within these conditions.
How the clearance was completed
Bulky furniture in the inventory may need to be safely disassembled where necessary to work within the access conditions above; items outside the agreed scope – wall-fixed units, hazardous materials and building rubble – are left in place.
Any reusable items are set aside for an appropriate reuse route where feasible, with the remaining waste going through authorised disposal channels.
Final cost and pricing factors
£465 was the lowest of the 3 bids this job attracted; the highest came in at £635. Behind that spread sit the same underlying factors every bidder was pricing against: roughly 9–12 cubic yards of material to shift, furniture that may need disassembling to get it out, and the internal stairs and limited kerbside loading – plus only a reserved loading space to work from – that slow down carry time.
There's no fixed houseclearance.co rate for house clearance in Hampstead; each job gets quoted on its own merits by the carriers bidding for it. £465 reflects this maisonette and this job record only – not a going rate for the area. For the broader picture, see how prices are calculated.
