Practical Guides for Clearing, Moving & Waste Removal
Straightforward advice to help you plan a house clearance, prepare for moving day, understand responsible waste removal and make informed decisions before you book.
Useful before you book
Send clear photos and your postcode, explain what needs clearing or moving, and ask what is included in the quote.
For a house clearance, set aside anything that must stay before work begins. For a move, flag access issues, large items and any preferred dates.

2. Explain the important details
Tell us about stairs, parking, large items, restricted access, deadlines or anything that needs special care.
3. Confirm what is included
Before booking, make sure the agreed work, quote, exclusions and any additional arrangements are clear.
