How much does an office clearance cost in Kent?
Office clearance in Kent costs roughly £45–£70 per desk position for furniture only, £900–£1,800 for a 10-desk office including IT and storage, and £3,500–£12,000 for a full floor strip-out to dilapidation standard.

Office clearances are rarely just furniture. There is nearly always IT hardware needing WEEE-compliant disposal and data destruction, fixed storage that must be dismantled, and a lease dilapidation clause specifying the state the landlord expects the space returned in.
We price by desk position for straightforward clears and by floor area for strip-outs, working evenings and weekends where a live office cannot be disrupted.
What it costs
| Load / item | What it covers | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Per desk position | Desk, pedestal and task chair removed | £45 – £70 |
| Small office, up to 10 desks | Furniture, storage, IT and cabling | £900 – £1,800 |
| Medium office, 11–40 desks | Multi-load clearance, usually out of hours | £1,800 – £5,500 |
| Full floor strip-out | Partitions, carpet, kitchenette to dilapidation standard | £3,500 – £12,000 |
| IT and WEEE disposal | Per item, with data destruction certificate | from £12 |
| Filing cabinet or tambour unit | Emptied, dismantled and metal recycled | £25 – £45 |
| Confidential paper destruction | Per 100L sack, certificate issued | from £18 |
| Out-of-hours surcharge | Evening, weekend or bank holiday working | 15% – 25% |

What moves the price
IT assets and data liability
Every device holding data needs a documented destruction or wipe. We issue serial-level certificates so your UK GDPR record-keeping stands up to scrutiny, and route hardware through a WEEE-permitted processor.
Dilapidation standard
Read the lease before booking. Returning a floor to shell and core is a fundamentally different job from removing furniture, and involves partitions, floor boxes, carpet tiles and making good.
Building access and lifts
Goods lift booking, loading bay windows and service-corridor protection all shape the schedule. Multi-tenant buildings in Maidstone and Ebbsfleet usually restrict clearance to outside office hours.
Resale and reuse value
Task chairs, height-adjustable desks and recent IT hold resale value that can be offset against the clearance cost, and donations to Kent schools and charities can be documented for your ESG reporting.
Key takeaways
- Budget £45–£70 per desk position for a straightforward Kent office furniture clear.
- A 10-desk office with IT and storage typically lands between £900 and £1,800.
- IT disposal must be WEEE-compliant with data destruction certificates.
- Check the lease dilapidation clause before scoping the job.
- Out-of-hours working adds 15–25% but avoids business disruption entirely.
