Common questions

Questions about probate clearances answered

Executors and families often ask about timelines, what we handle, and how the process works. Browse answers below.

How long does a full probate clearance typically take?

Most properties clear in one or two visits. Simple clearances may take a single day, while larger homes with multiple rooms might need scheduling across a few days. We work around your timeline and coordinate with solicitors and executors.

What happens to items we don't want removed?

You decide what stays and what goes. We remove only what you mark for clearance. Items with value can be donated, sold, or collected by family. We handle responsible disposal of the rest through recycling and proper waste carriers.

Do you handle sensitive documents and paperwork?

Yes. We advise keeping all legal and financial documents for your records. For unwanted paperwork, we arrange secure disposal or shredding. Our team understands the need for discretion with personal and confidential materials.

Can you remove furniture and large items same-day?

We offer same-day clearance for many properties across London. Large furniture, carpets, and bulky items are our specialty. Call us to discuss your specific needs and we'll confirm availability for your location.

Are you licensed to handle all types of waste?

We're a licensed and insured waste carrier operating across London. We handle general household items, furniture, appliances, and garden waste. If you have items requiring specialist disposal, we'll advise during the consultation.

How much does a probate clearance cost?

Costs depend on property size, contents volume, and what needs removal. We provide clear pricing before work starts, with no hidden charges. Contact us for a free consultation and honest estimate for your situation.
