A full house clearance means everything in the property goes, apart from the things you ask us to keep. It is the service most people need when a home is being sold, handed back to a landlord or housing association, or emptied after a loved one has died or moved into care.
We know the property may hold a lifetime of belongings, so we never rush. Before we start, we agree exactly what is staying, what is going and what should be set aside for the family. As we work, we keep an eye out for photographs, letters, documents, jewellery and anything that looks personal or valuable, and put it to one side for you.
What a full house clearance includes
- Every room: furniture, beds, wardrobes, carpets and rugs if required, kitchen contents, books, clothes and household items.
- Storage spaces: lofts, attics, cupboards under the stairs, cellars, garages and sheds.
- Outside: garden furniture, pots, old bikes and the usual clutter that gathers outdoors.
- Appliances: fridges, freezers, cookers and washing machines, handled and recycled correctly.
- A tidy finish: once the last item is out, the floors are swept so the property is ready for whatever comes next.
Who we help
Families clearing a parent's home, executors and solicitors winding up an estate, homeowners preparing to sell, landlords and housing providers at the end of a tenancy, and people moving abroad or into a smaller home. If you live far away, we can work from photos, a video call and a set of keys, and keep you updated as the job progresses.
Do you need to be there?
No. Many customers give us access and let us get on with it, especially when they live some distance away. Others prefer to be present for the first hour to point out what stays. Either is fine, and we will agree the plan with you in advance.

Questions people ask
How long does a full house clearance take?
Most homes are cleared in one or two days. Larger or very full properties can take longer, and we will tell you the expected time when we quote.
Can you leave some furniture behind?
Yes. Tell us what is staying and we will work around it. Many people mark items with sticky notes before we arrive.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. A few photos of each room, the loft and any outbuildings let us give you an accurate quote without a visit.
What if you find documents or valuables?
We set aside photographs, paperwork, jewellery and anything that looks personal or valuable, and hand it back to you.
