House clearance experts

What is house clearance?

House clearance involves the removal of unwanted furniture, appliances, and other items from a property. This service is ideal for decluttering, preparing a home for sale or rent, or clearing a property after a bereavement. Professional house clearance companies handle everything, including sorting, recycling, and disposing of items responsibly, making the process stress-free for homeowners.

How much does it cost to clear a house?

The cost of house clearance depends on factors like the size of the property, the volume of items, and whether specialist waste disposal is needed:

  • Small Clearance: Costs typically range from £150 to £400 for a single room or small property.
  • Full House Clearance: Prices for clearing an entire house range from £600 to £1,500, depending on the number of items and their disposal requirements.

How long does it take?

The time required for house clearance varies with the size of the property and the number of items:

  • Small Properties: Clearing a single room or small apartment may take 2-4 hours.
  • Full Houses: Larger properties or houses with extensive items may require a full day or more, especially if there are bulky or hazardous materials.

Other house clearance FAQs

Can house clearance include garden waste?

Yes, many house clearance services also handle garden waste removal. Check with your provider to confirm.

Do I need to sort items before clearance?

No, house clearance professionals can handle sorting, recycling, and disposal. However, separating valuable or personal items beforehand is recommended.

Is house clearance environmentally friendly?

Professional house clearance services often prioritize recycling and responsible disposal to minimize environmental impact.

Sebastian provided a first-class service. He cleared my house completely, removing a van full of rubbish that had been left behind in house and garden. Not only did he take everything away, but Ayisha swept up afterwards. Reliable, efficient, and very professional — I wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again and highly recommend him.
