Downsizing is the one clearance where the contents usually matter most. Good furniture, jewellery and collections are worth real money, and an honest firm deducts that from the price.
In Croydon we work with independent firms that hold an upper-tier waste carrier licence, carry at least £2m public liability insurance, and have been checked against the Environment Agency register before they can quote you. Tell us about the property once and up to three of them will price it.
What a downsizing clearance includes
- All labour and the vehicle
- Licensed disposal, with a waste transfer note for your records
- Dismantling furniture where it will not fit through the door
- Sweeping through afterwards, left broom-clean
- Resale value on good furniture offset against your price
- Donation to charity of anything usable, receipts on request
