Planning an estate cleanout, one room at a time

An estate cleanout can involve practical decisions and personal ones. A room-by-room plan makes it easier to protect important belongings while defining the removal work.

Set aside personal items first

Gather documents, photographs, valuables and keepsakes before choosing items for removal. Mark rooms or furniture that should remain untouched.

Make the scope visible

Photograph the areas to be cleared, including basements, attics and outdoor storage. Note large furniture, appliances and any access limitations.

Agree on boundaries

Discuss the rooms, items and loading responsibilities in the quote. Confirm access arrangements and identify a point of contact for questions during the work.

A simple way to get started

Set aside items you want to keep and point out anything that needs special handling. Please describe paint, chemicals, batteries or other potentially hazardous materials before requesting pickup.
