Behind the Scenes: 3 Major Commercial Clearances by Samco Services

Clearing Commercial Spaces Across the UK – The Samco Way

At Samco Services, we specialise in professional, licensed commercial clearance across Sussex, Surrey, Kent, London — and beyond. Whether it’s a closed-down shop, an empty nursing home, or a large educational facility, we have the experience, equipment, and trusted team to get the job done efficiently and responsibly.

In this post, we’re sharing a behind-the-scenes look at three of our biggest commercial clearance projects to date. These jobs reflect the scale of work we can manage and the careful planning that goes into each clearance.

1. NPTC College Campus Clearance – Llandrindod Wells, Wales

We were recently contracted to clear a four-storey college campus in Llandrindod Wells, Wales, which had closed and was being redeveloped into housing. This was a full commercial clearance that spanned an entire week and required careful coordination from our experienced team.

🏗️ Challenges:

No electricity due to damp issues, meaning all lifts were out of service. Required use of generators, portable lighting, and a chute system for upper floors.

♻️ Items Cleared:

Commercial kitchen equipment Gym apparatus Classroom and office furniture Confidential files and general waste

🌍 Environmental Impact:

30 tonnes of general waste removed and taken to a local licensed waste transfer station 10 tonnes of confidential waste securely shredded on-site Paper was recycled into pet bedding Wood repurposed for renewable energy Metal and textiles recycled through appropriate streams

The client, NPTC Group of Colleges, left a glowing review:

“Samco provided a very good service at a competitive rate. They were efficient, kept to target dates and were reliable throughout.”

2. Closed Nursing Home Clearance – Kent

In Kent, we were called in to clear a large nursing home that had recently shut down. The job required the complete removal of furniture and equipment across multiple floors.

🛏️ Items Removed:

Bed frames and mattresses Wardrobes, chairs and tables Lounge and reception area furniture Canteen equipment

⏱️ Timeframe:

The job took one full week to complete All waste was sorted for reuse or recycling where possible

Our team handled the clearance respectfully and efficiently, understanding the sensitive nature of clearing a former care facility.

3. Retail Shop Clearance – Leeds (Former Liz Earle’s Location)

When a large high street shop in Leeds closed down, Samco was tasked with clearing the space quickly and professionally. The unit, previously occupied by Liz Earle, had a wide range of commercial and cosmetic retail fixtures to remove.

🛍️ Items Cleared:

Display counters, shelving and stands Stockroom furniture and storage Decorative fittings and signage Packaging and general waste

🗓️ Duration:
