# Landlord and Property Clearance in Scotland

Source: https://scottishhouseclearance.co.uk/landlord-property-clearance/

When a tenant leaves belongings behind, or a property needs emptying before it can be re-let or sold, we clear it promptly so you can get on with the next step.

Empty weeks between tenancies cost money, and a property cannot be cleaned, repaired or photographed until left-behind furniture and rubbish have gone. We help landlords, letting agents, property managers and housing providers turn properties around.

## Typical jobs

- End-of-tenancy clearances where items have been left behind

- Abandoned properties, once you have followed the correct legal process

- Furnished lets being changed to unfurnished

- Student flats and HMOs at the end of term

- Properties being emptied before refurbishment or sale

- Clearances after a tenant has died, handled sensitively with the family

## Working with agents and property managers

We can collect keys from your office, work to your check-out report, send photos when the job is done and invoice the agent or landlord directly. If you manage several properties, we can agree a simple process for future jobs.

## A note on tenants' belongings

If a tenant may still have a claim to items left in a property, make sure you have followed the correct process before anything is removed. Your letting agent or a solicitor can advise; we will always follow your written instructions.

## What happens to the things we take away

We sort as we clear. Furniture and household goods in good condition go to reuse and charity partners where they will be accepted, materials such as metal, wood, textiles and electricals are recycled, and only what cannot be reused or recycled is disposed of. We are a registered waste carrier with . Our registration number is available to customers on request.

### Reuse and donate

Usable furniture and household goods go to local charities and reuse projects.

### Recycle

Metal, wood, textiles, paper and electricals go to licensed recycling facilities.

Only what cannot be reused or recycled is disposed of, with waste transfer notes kept for every job.
