What’s included in an estate cleanout?
Everything it takes to get the home empty: sorting through belongings, setting aside keepsakes and important papers for the family, delivering donations to local charities, selling items of value through auction, consignment, or an estate sale, and hauling away and disposing of whatever is left. If you’d like, we can also arrange a final clean once the home is empty.
Do I need to be there during the cleanout?
No. Some families like to sort alongside us; others live out of town or would rather not be there. Either way works. We agree up front on what to look out for and what should be set aside, then work on your behalf and keep you in the loop.
What happens to everything in the home?
Every item gets a direction: kept by the family, donated, sold, or disposed of. Usable furniture, housewares, and clothing go to local charities and donation centres, items with resale value are sold, and the rest is hauled away and disposed of responsibly, with recycling wherever possible.
Do you handle hoarding situations or heavily cluttered homes?
Yes. We help with homes where belongings have built up over many years, and we do it without judgment. We work at a pace that suits the person and the family, and we keep things discreet.
Do you do cleanouts that aren’t estates, like rental turnovers or clearing before a sale?
Yes. We clear out whole homes for many reasons: getting a house ready to list, clearing what’s left after a move, and rental turnovers for landlords and property managers when tenants leave belongings behind.
Can you clean the home once it’s empty?
Yes. We can arrange a final clean so the home is ready for listing photos, new tenants, or handing over the keys.
How much does an estate cleanout cost?
Every home is different. The size of the property, the volume of belongings, and how much will be donated, sold, or hauled all affect the scope. We start with a walkthrough and give you a free, comprehensive estimate, so you know what to expect before anything begins.
What areas do you serve for cleanouts?
We handle cleanouts across Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley, including Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, North and West Vancouver, New Westminster, the Tri-Cities, Surrey, White Rock, Delta, Langley, Abbotsford, and surrounding communities.
