Move-out clearance & removals
House clearance and move-out removals in London.
Clearing a home? Movesmith moves the contents — to a new address, into storage, or to a charity — at a fixed price with a verified local operator. Ideal for end-of-tenancy move-outs and probate or family homes.
We move it — we don't tip it.This is a removals service: we move your contents where you want them. We don't haul items to the tip or dispose of waste. If you need disposal, use a licensed clearance firm, your council's bulky-waste service or a charity collection — we'll point you the right way.
- Fixed price before booking
- Verified local operators
- Contents moved, not tipped

What we help with
Moving a home's contents on.
- End-of-tenancy move-outs — clear the flat by moving your things out
- Probate & family homes — contents moved into storage or shared among family
- Charity donation runs — reusable furniture taken to a charity
- Part clearances — a room, a garage or just the furniture, moved on
- Collection into storage — everything moved to a storage unit at a fixed price
- Anywhere across London and the South East
What's not included
Disposal is a separate job.
Movesmith is a removals service, so anything you want thrown away rather than moved is handled elsewhere — here's the right route for each.
Waste disposal & tip runs
We don't haul items to a waste transfer station or dispose of them. For that, use a licensed clearance firm (check they hold a Waste Carrier Licence).
Council bulky-waste items
For a few large items to throw away, your council's bulky-waste collection is usually cheapest — we'll point you to it.
Reusable furniture you want gone
Charities like the British Heart Foundation and Emmaus collect good furniture free — we can move donations for you, but we don't run a disposal service.
How it works
A fixed price before you book.
- 1
Tell us what's moving and where to
Rough inventory or van loads, the address it's leaving, and where it's going — a new home, a storage unit, a family member or a charity.

One price up front for moving the contents — volume, access and distance shown as clear line items, nothing added on the day.

A verified crew moves it
A verified local operator loads, transports and delivers to the destination. Anything you're disposing of, you arrange separately — we move, we don't tip.
Good to know
Planning a move-out clearance.
Probate & bereavement moves
Clearing a late relative's home is sensitive work. Operators handle it with care, and you only move what's being kept, donated or stored — at a price fixed in advance.
Volume and access
Move-outs are priced on how much there is and the access at both ends — floors, lifts, parking and long carries. Rough item counts up front keep the fixed price accurate.
Splitting keep / donate / dispose
Sort into keep, donate and dispose before the day. We move the keep and donate piles; the dispose pile goes via your council, a charity collection or a licensed clearance firm.
Timing
End-of-tenancy move-outs often have a fixed handover deadline. Share it when you book so the operator slots the job in correctly.
House clearance questions
Common questions on move-out clearance, disposal and pricing.
Does Movesmith take rubbish away or dispose of items?
No. Movesmith moves the contents of a home — to a new address, storage, a family member or a charity — but we don't haul items to the tip or dispose of them. For disposal, use a licensed clearance firm (check they hold a Waste Carrier Licence), your council's bulky-waste service, or a charity collection.
How much does a move-out clearance cost in London?
It's priced on how much is moving, the access at both ends and the distance — shown as a fixed price before you book. A part clearance of a room or the furniture costs less than a whole flat. For what a full clearance with disposal costs, see our house clearance costs guide.
Can you clear a relative's home into storage?
Yes — moving the contents of a probate or family home into a storage unit, or sharing them among family, is exactly what this is for. It's handled with care and priced as a fixed-price move before you book.
Can you move furniture to a charity?
Yes — we can move reusable furniture and items to a charity as part of the job. Many charities also collect good furniture free, so it's worth checking; either way, we handle the moving, not the disposal.
What if I need some things moved and others thrown away?
Sort into keep/donate and dispose before the day. Movesmith moves the keep and donate items to wherever they're going; for the dispose pile, arrange your council's bulky-waste collection or a licensed clearance firm. Splitting it this way is usually cheaper than a full disposal clearance.
