Probate & deceased estates
Discreet clearances with photo documentation and paperwork.
House Clearance
Clearing a house can feel never-ending, especially when there is probate, a sale, or a move happening at the same time. We cover Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire, Cheshire, Derbyshire, West Yorkshire and South Yorkshire. We do the lifting, loading and sorting to your brief, and we set aside paperwork, photos and anything you want kept. One full 3.5-tonne van load is roughly two 8-yard builders' skips worth of waste, with none of the skip hassle. You get a Digital Waste Transfer Note when we are done and we aim for around 95% landfill diversion through reuse and recycling.

Sensitive situations
Scenarios we handle
Landlord turnaround, downsizing, probate, or a sale deadline, we handle the heavy lifting and the decision fatigue. Tell us what stays, what goes to donation, and what is waste, and we will work room by room with a calm, respectful approach. If you cannot attend, we can work to a written brief and provide photo updates, plus digital Waste Transfer Notes when the job is complete.
Hoarder / compulsive
Calm, staged approach; separation of keepsakes and essentials.
End-of-tenancy
Agent coordination, keys collected and ready for check-out.
Downsizing
Careful removals with reuse prioritised for unwanted items.
Inherited property
Respectful sorting; photos and records for family members.
Sensitive or absent access
Key collection; work off-site with clear updates provided.
Scope
What we clear
Sofas, wardrobes, beds and mattresses, white goods, carpets, drawers, bookcases, bagged clothing, boxed loft bits, and the cupboards you have not opened in years. We can include garages, sheds and lofts where access is safe, and we keep the keep pile separate so nothing important is binned by mistake.

How do you protect the property during a clearance?
We protect floors, stairwells and doorways and use covers and careful carries to avoid marks.
Can you clear lofts, sheds and garages in the same visit?
Yes. Subject to safe access, we can include lofts, sheds and garages in one booking.
Can you work if I can't attend?
Yes. We can collect keys from an agent, follow a written brief, and send photo updates and paperwork when finished.

We prioritise donation and reuse, then recycle as much as possible through licensed facilities.
Do you clean up after the clearance?
We sweep through and leave rooms tidy. If you need a deep clean, we can recommend a partner.
