Newcastle Bereavement Clearance Service
Covering Tyneside & North East England

If you require a quote, please just get in touch with us. We can determine what option works best for you; we can arrange access through your estate agent, solicitor or any other point of contact you choose.

All we really need is for you to identify a main point of contact for access. As we use large clearance vehicles, it is helpful to arrange suitable parking if possible, allowing us direct access to the property.

The simple answer is no, we do this for you. This actually helps us to identify items that can be reused through donations, which also reduces the number of items being disposed of. 

Given the circumstances around bereavement clearances, most of our clients prefer not to be present during this process. We can collect keys for access and retain any items you have identified during your bereavement clearance.

We encourage all clients to take or identify whatever items they wish to retain prior to a bereavement clearance. It is important to understand that once the clearance begins, removed items are not recoverable. 

We can help you move and transport any large items you wish to keep throughout most of the UK. For smaller items, we can package and post these out to you if you live elsewhere or can deliver them once the bereavement clearance is complete.

We often locate lost items such as photos, certificates, medals and important documents which we always retain for our clients. If you need us to look out for any missing items, we will do our very best to locate them for you.

This all depends on your requirements; all loose items tend to be removed during a bereavement clearance. Typically, items that are classed as built-in usually remain during the clearance process unless otherwise instructed. Curtains and blinds are not normally removed unless required. Carpets can be lifted and removed if needed. White goods can be taken or retained depending on your needs.

We factor all the costs of your bereavement clearance into our prices, so your quote includes everything with no additional charges.

During your bereavement clearance quote, we will identify any items of value and adjust the costs accordingly, so the quote you receive will take your valuable items into account. It is worth remembering that selling an item yourself is always going to give you the best price and we are happy to advise on this.

As an environmentally responsible company, we attempt to re-use as many items as possible; finding new homes through various outlets such as charity shops. Items not fit for re-use are sorted during the bereavement clearance for recycling purposes and are taken to waste recycling centres. Any remaining items are processed at the waste recycling centres for incineration for energy production.

Yes, if you require a property clean after a bereavement clearance, we have a specialist team on hand. This additional service is available to our clients at an added cost. We can tailor this to your specific needs to include oven cleans and carpet cleaning if required.

This depends on the volume of items to clear and the size of the property. Typically, a full bereavement clearance will take one or two days and a partial clearance will take one day or less. When providing a quote, we will confirm the length of time we expect it would take.

The short answer is no, there is no VAT to pay on your bereavement clearance, so the quote we provide is the total price you will pay.
