What affects the price
Every property is different, so any firm quoting a fixed figure over the phone without details should be treated with caution. The main factors are:
- The size of the property and number of rooms affected
- The volume and weight of items to be removed
- The level of cleaning needed — from a standard clean to full biohazard sanitisation
- How easy it is to access the property and park a vehicle
- Disposal and recycling costs for the waste involved
Rough guidance
As a very general guide, a single cluttered room is at the lower end, a full home clearance sits in the middle, and a severe, unsanitary or Level 5 property with biohazard cleaning is at the higher end. We always give you a clear written quote before any work begins, with no hidden extras.
Ways to keep costs down
Where belongings have resale value, a free or reduced-cost clearance may be possible. We can also spread larger jobs across stages, and donating or recycling usable items often reduces disposal costs.
If you are clearing on behalf of an estate, some costs may be recoverable from the estate — your solicitor can advise.
Getting an accurate quote
The only way to know the real cost is a quick assessment. We offer this free, with no obligation, either over the phone or with a discreet visit.
