House clearance is about more than simply removing items from a property. It's about handling someone's home and belongings with care — whether that's a family moving on, a landlord preparing a property for new tenants, or a bereavement clearance that requires particular sensitivity.

We provide professional house clearance services across Leeds and the surrounding areas. From a single room to a complete property, we clear, clean, and dispose of everything responsibly — donating and recycling wherever possible rather than simply taking everything to landfill.

The Process

How the clearance process works

We aim to make the clearance process as straightforward as possible — from initial enquiry to completed job.

1. Enquiry and quote

Tell us what needs clearing, where the property is, and add photos if you can. We review the details and provide a clear, honest quote — no obligation.

2. Assessment and scheduling

If needed, we can visit the property to assess the job in person. Otherwise, we arrange a date and time that works for you.

3. The clearance

Our team arrives on the agreed date and carries out the clearance — carefully, efficiently, and respectfully. We clear everything you want gone and leave the property clean and empty.

4. Responsible disposal

Items are sorted for donation, recycling, or disposal at licensed facilities. We can provide waste transfer documentation if you need it.

Preparation

Preparing for a clearance

A little preparation can make the clearance smoother. Here's what we recommend.

Before we arrive

Identify anything you want to keep and set it aside or label it clearly
If you can't be present, provide clear written instructions about what to keep and what to remove
Ensure we have access to the property — keys, alarm codes, parking permits
Let us know about any items requiring specialist handling (fridges, paints, etc.)
For bereavement clearances, take your time — there is no rush to decide

What we need from you

Clear access to the property and the rooms to be cleared
A contact number in case we need to reach you during the clearance
Confirmation of what stays and what goes — written instructions or labels work well
Parking arrangements if the property is in a restricted area
Any relevant information about the property — alarms, fragile floors, difficult access

Pricing

Factors that affect the cost

Because every clearance is different, we quote based on your specific circumstances. Here's what influences the price.

Volume of items to be removed

Size of the property (number of rooms)

Access — parking, stairs, lifts, distance to van

Labour required (number of people, estimated time)

Type of materials and disposal requirements

Specialist items requiring separate handling

Reusable or resalable items that may offset the cost

Resalable items: If your property contains items with resale value — good-quality furniture, antiques, or working appliances — this value can sometimes offset the cost of the clearance. We'll be transparent about any value we identify.

Responsible Disposal

Where your items go

We don't simply load everything into a van and take it to the tip. We sort, separate, and direct items to the most appropriate destination.

Reuse & donation

Furniture, appliances, and items in good condition are offered to charities and reuse organisations.

Recycling

Metal, wood, glass, plastics, paper, and electronics are sorted and taken to recycling facilities.

Licensed disposal

Non-recyclable waste is disposed of at licensed facilities with full documentation.

FAQ

House clearance FAQs

What is the difference between full and partial house clearance?

A full house clearance means removing all contents from the property — every room, cupboard, loft, and garage. A partial clearance covers specific rooms, items, or areas. For example, you might want just the furniture removed, or a single room cleared. We handle both.

Do I need to be present during the clearance?

Not necessarily. Many of our clients — particularly landlords and executors — are unable to attend in person. As long as we have access and clear instructions about what to keep and what to remove, we can carry out the clearance and send you photographic confirmation.

What items require special handling?

Some items need specialist disposal: fridges and freezers, televisions, fluorescent tubes, paints and solvents, batteries, asbestos (which requires a specialist contractor), and certain medical equipment. Tell us about these in advance so we can plan accordingly.

Can you clear the loft and garage as well?

Yes. Loft and garage clearance are a common part of our service. These areas often hold years of accumulated items, and we are experienced in safely accessing and clearing them.

How should I prepare for a clearance?

The main thing is to identify anything you want to keep. If possible, set those items aside or label them. If you cannot be present, provide clear written instructions or photographs. For bereavement clearances, take your time — there is no rush to decide.

Do you provide waste transfer notes?

Yes. We can provide waste transfer documentation for any clearance we carry out. This is particularly important for landlords, businesses, and executors who need to demonstrate that waste was handled responsibly.
