What house clearance means
House clearance is the complete removal of furniture, appliances, personal effects and general contents from a property, leaving it broom-swept and ready for sale, letting or handover.
Clearing a house is rarely just a logistics job. It usually follows a bereavement, a move into care, a repossession or a tenancy that ended badly, and each of those needs a different pace and a different level of care. We survey first, agree what stays, and photograph anything that looks personal or valuable before it moves.
Everything sellable is separated for reuse through Kent charity partners and second-hand outlets, which lowers your disposal cost and keeps the landfill figure down. You receive an itemised summary of what was removed alongside the transfer note.

Probate, executors and lawful disposal
Executors carry the same duty of care as any other waste producer. Before disposal we photograph documents, jewellery boxes, medals and anything that reads as sentimental, and hold them aside for the family. Upholstered items containing persistent organic pollutants are separated at source and sent for incineration with energy recovery, as required by Environment Agency guidance.
