Frequently Asked Questions
How much does house clearance cost in Stockport?
Costs depend on the size of the property and the volume of items. As a rough guide: a 1-bed flat typically costs £300-£750, a 2-bed house £500-£1000, and a 3-bed house £800-£1600. We always provide a free, no-obligation quote before any work begins so there are no surprises. Call us on 0161 554 0401 for an accurate price.
How quickly can you clear a house?
Most clearances are completed within 1-2 days. A typical 2-3 bedroom house takes a full day with our team. For urgent situations like end of tenancy, probate deadlines, or emergencies, we offer a same-day service where possible. Get in touch and we will do our best to fit you in quickly.
Do you recycle or donate items?
Yes, this is a big part of what we do. We sort everything carefully. Usable furniture, clothing, and household goods go to local charities and community groups. Recyclable materials including metal, wood, cardboard, and electronics are processed at licensed facilities. We avoid landfill wherever possible. It is better for the environment and better for the community.
Do you handle probate or bereavement clearances?
Absolutely. Probate and bereavement clearances are a significant part of our work. We understand this is an incredibly difficult time, and we handle every job with sensitivity, patience, and respect. We work with solicitors, executors, and families across Stockport and Manchester. You can go through the property first and bring us in later, or we can handle everything from the start.
Which areas do you cover?
We cover all of Stockport and the SK postcode area, including Bramhall, Hazel Grove, Marple, Cheadle, Cheadle Hulme, Gatley, Heald Green, Heaton Moor, Reddish, Offerton, Woodley, Romiley, and Bredbury. We also cover Manchester, Tameside, Oldham, and Cheshire East. If you are not sure whether we cover your area, give us a call.
Are you licensed to remove waste?
Yes. We hold a full Environment Agency upper tier waste carrier licence (CBDU588578). This means all waste is transported and disposed of legally, with full waste transfer notes provided. You will never have to worry about where your waste ends up.
Do I need to be present during the clearance?
Not always. Many of our customers, particularly solicitors and executors handling probate clearances, are not able to be present. We can arrange key collection, carry out the clearance, and return the keys. We keep you updated throughout with photos and progress reports.
What happens to valuable items found during clearance?
Any items of value are set aside and reported to you immediately. We never dispose of anything without checking first. If you want us to sell items on your behalf, we can arrange that too. Full transparency is our standard approach.
Can you clear just one room or a garage?
Yes. We do not require you to have the entire property cleared. Single rooms, garages, sheds, lofts, and outbuildings are all jobs we handle regularly. No job is too small.
How do I book a house clearance?
Simply call us on 0161 554 0401 or fill in the contact form below. We will ask a few questions about the property and what needs clearing, then provide a free, no-obligation quote. If you are happy to go ahead, we arrange a date that works for you.
More House Clearance Questions
How much does house clearance cost in Stockport?
Costs depend on the size of the property and the volume of items. As a rough guide: a 1-bed flat typically costs around 300-750 pounds, a 2-bed house 500-1000 pounds, and a 3-bed house 800-1600 pounds. We always provide a free, no-obligation quote before any work begins so there are no surprises. Call us on 0161 554 0401 for an accurate price. See our full pricing guide for more detail.
Is 900 pounds too much for house clearance?
It depends entirely on the property. For a large 3-4 bedroom house that is fully furnished, 900 pounds can be very reasonable when you factor in labour, van hire, disposal fees, recycling costs, and the time involved. For a small flat with minimal contents, it would be on the high side. We always recommend getting at least two quotes and making sure both companies are licensed waste carriers. Cheaper quotes from unlicensed operators can result in fines of up to 5,000 pounds if your waste is fly-tipped.
What happens to furniture during house clearance?
We sort everything carefully. Usable furniture is donated to local charities and community groups wherever possible. Items that cannot be reused are broken down and recycled at licensed facilities. We avoid sending anything to landfill that can be recycled or rehomed. If you have items of particular value, we will set them aside and discuss options with you before any clearance begins.
Do you provide a receipt or proof of disposal?
Yes. We provide waste transfer notes for every job, confirming that all waste has been transported and disposed of legally and in accordance with our Environment Agency licence. This is important for your peace of mind and may be required by solicitors or local authorities during probate or end-of-tenancy processes.
