Clearing a loved one's home, at your pace
Clearing a parent's or relative's house after a death is one of the hardest practical jobs a family faces. There's no need to rush it. Some families want the house cleared quickly so it can be sold; others want to go through things room by room first and have us do the heavy work afterwards. We fit around whatever you need, and we can clear in stages if that helps.
On the day, the crew works quietly and respectfully. Photographs, letters, documents, medals and anything that looks personal or sentimental are set aside in one place for the family — we'd always rather ask than assume. If there are items you want kept, moved to another address or passed to a family member, tell us and we'll organise it.
Working with executors and solicitors
Many bereavement clearances are arranged by an executor, a solicitor or a family member living abroad. We can work from keys, send before-and-after photos, provide written confirmation that the property has been cleared, and return keys to an agent or solicitor. If the house is being sold, we can leave it swept and ready for viewings or for the estate agent's photographer.
Donation and reuse
Families often take comfort in knowing that good furniture, clothing, books and household items have gone to someone who can use them rather than to landfill. Wherever items are in usable condition, we pass them on for reuse or donation; recyclables are separated; and only what genuinely can't be reused is disposed of at licensed facilities.
What's included
Everything from a single wardrobe of clothes to the complete contents of a house, including the attic, garage, shed and garden. Carpets, curtains and white goods can be included. We can also arrange a final sweep and tidy so the property is ready for handover.

I found Ciprians company on a Google search as I needed help with a very cluttered attic. I liked that the website said he would allow sorting and keeping on the day as I was as hoping to find items not seen for a long time. All other companies stressed that items to be kept needed to be removed before the visit.
I have added a photo of the cover Ciprian put on the stair carpet. He also cleans carpets and wears all his hats on every job.
His helper was unavailable but Ciprian did the job excellently on his own. Again I was given time to check before every bag was removed to his truck.
He reused my vacuum bags to gather loose items in the attic and removed everything including loose wood left left by previous workmen doing flooring.
I did not need anything put back into the attic as Ciprian had offered as it was to be left empty for another company who will install shelving etc
Excellent communication via WhatsApp prior to the day and very polite.
Reasonable price for the work involved..
Thank you..
Would highly recommend Ciprian! Himself & his colleague did an excellent job on a house clearance recently. They were extremely thorough, professional & efficient. They arrived promptly & there was good communication with Ciprian who was easy to contact. A job well done.
Ciprian and Will arrived bang on time and did the attic clearance in less than 2 hours. Perfect job, everything taken away and hall carpets hoovered afterwards.
