The trade norm is a price per m³ of contents: on average € 25 to € 45 per m³. An average home holds 30 to 60 m³, so a complete clearance usually comes to € 500 to € 2,500, including disposal and a broom-clean handover. Removing part of the contents starts from around € 150. The amount of contents, accessibility and any dismantling decide where you land in the band.

That differs per company and per season — so always mention your handover date in the request. Companies see that date immediately and only respond if they can meet it. The work itself is usually done in one or two working days for an average home.

Usable furniture, appliances and curiosities go to charity shops or buyers where possible. If the contents hold resale value, many companies offset it against the clearance price — ask about this explicitly in the quote. If you want items kept aside for family or your own sale, say so upfront; they are secured first.

Broom-clean means: the home is empty, floors are swept or vacuumed and no waste or loose contents remain. A deep clean (washing windows, scrubbing bathrooms) is not included. It is the handover state most rental and sale contracts require; check your contract or pre-inspection for any extra requirements.

Yes. Submitting a request costs nothing and commits you to nothing. Up to 3 clearance companies respond and you decide who to talk to — or no one, which is fine too. Prices and payment are arranged directly with the company.

Clearance companies in your region respond as soon as possible with a price indication. Mention your handover date in the request: companies then know immediately whether your schedule is feasible and you only receive responses you can use.

Yes. Clearing a home after a bereavement is familiar work for clearance companies, and the good ones handle it calmly and discreetly. Mention in your request that it concerns an estate: documents, photos, jewellery and other sentimental items are then set aside and shown to the family first. Where the handover date allows, you set the pace.

Yes. A senior move combines relocating and setting up the items that come along with a good destination for the rest — sale, donation or disposal — and, if wanted, a broom-clean handover of the old home. Expect € 500 to € 2,000 for the whole job; choose 'Senior move' in the request.

Yes. For landlords, property managers, housing associations, administrators and estate agents there are fixed routines: empty and broom-clean handover with photos before and after, and for several homes contract terms with a single point of contact. Choose 'Landlords and business' in the request.

Not necessarily, but it is wise to be there briefly at the start: you walk through the home together and point out what stays, what is set aside and what can go. After that the company continues independently — a remote key handover is common, for example when you live further away. Do record the agreements in writing.
