How an estate cleanout works
Start with photos of every room, including the attic, basement, garage and any shed. If that is too much, a walk-through video from your phone works. We text back one price for the whole house.
Before the haul day, we ask you to do one thing: go through the house for what the family is keeping, and put it in one room or mark it. Everything else is ours to sort. We are careful with it. Papers, photographs and anything that looks personal go in a box for you, not the trailer.
On the day, usable furniture, kitchenware, tools and clothing go to the donation side. Metal goes to a recycler. Everything else goes to the county facility for that address. We sweep every room, send you photos, and if you are out of state, that is how you know it is done.
Who books estate cleanouts
Adult children who live somewhere else and have one weekend to deal with the house. Executors who need it empty for probate. Realtors who need it empty for photos. We work with all three and we are used to coordinating by text.
What we do not rush
Sorting. It is the slowest part of an estate cleanout and the part that matters most. A house that has been lived in for fifty years has things in it that should go to family, things that should go to a new home, and things that should go to the landfill, and they are all mixed together. We take the time to separate them.
