Job details
✅ Real completed job. This case study documents a genuine completed clearance job using a verified job record provided for publication on houseclearance.co.
Project overview
This job concerned a two-bedroom maisonette in Lewisham, SE13, where the goal was to remove the listed freestanding contents after the owners moved out. A licensed carrier took the job on through the houseclearance.co marketplace for £775.
For a job like this, the person authorising the work needs to approve a room-by-room keep/remove list before loading starts, so nothing needed is taken by mistake.
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 16–20 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 an agreed vehicle stopping point. 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
This job was carried out for £775. That figure reflects the estimated 16–20 cubic yards of material removed, the possible need to disassemble bulky furniture, and the access conditions noted above (internal stairs and limited kerbside loading; an agreed vehicle stopping point), which affect carry distance and loading time.
houseclearance.co doesn't set a fixed price for a house clearance in Lewisham – licensed carriers quote on each job individually, so £775 is what this specific job cost, not a rate that applies to every Lewisham clearance. See how prices are calculated for the fuller picture.
Result and handover
The two-bedroom maisonette in Lewisham was cleared of the inventory listed above. The job achieved its stated goal to remove the listed freestanding contents after the owners moved out.
