When the time comes to clear a home — whether due to bereavement, downsizing, probate, or property sale — the process should be handled with care, dignity, and precision, unfortunately, many in London searching for house clearance services end up tangled with unregulated operators who offer low rates but little protection, professionalism, or respect.
At RAD Removals, we believe house clearance should never feel like a “clear-out.” It’s about preserving value, minimising waste, and honouring what remains behind.
🧾 What Is Included in a Professional House Clearance?
Not all house clearance companies are created equal. A professional, full-service clearance like RAD’s goes beyond simply emptying a property:
- 📦 Itemised Inventory + Sorting
Our team creates a photographic and written inventory of cleared contents, helping you keep track of valuables and sentimental items. - ♻️ Segregated Disposal and Charity Support
Usable furniture and household goods are donated to partner charities wherever possible, with a green-minded approach to every job. - 🚛 Full Removals Logistics (If Needed)
Items destined for long-term storage or family delivery are handled by trained movers, not just clearance crews. - 🧤 Packing, Freight Wrapping & White Glove Services
Need delicate items protected? We offer freight wrapping for antiques, china, and ornaments.
What to Avoid in House Clearance Companies
A few warning signs of “clearance cowboys” operating around London and Surrey:
- No public liability or goods-in-transit insurance
- Cash-only payments and unmarked vans
- No paperwork or receipt for services
- “We’ll take everything”, offers — without proper disposal chains
Remember: as the property owner or executor, you are legally responsible for the waste. If fly-tipping occurs, it’s your fine, not theirs.
What Does House Clearance Cost in London?
Pricing varies based on property size and the volume of contents. Here’s a typical range in 2025:
| Property Type | Average Cost | RAD’s Value |
| 1-bed flat | £300–£500 | From £350 incl. inventory + waste tickets |
| 3-bed house | £600–£900 | From £675 incl. packing & eco disposal |
| Probate clearance | £900+ | From £950 incl. admin and family delivery |
RAD pays a fraction of what other firms pay in waste disposal — thanks to our direct access to commercial facilities. This means we can charge less while delivering more.
