House clearance in Leeds: full and part house clearances

How a house clearance works

• A free visit or video call to see the property and agree a price
• Removing anything you want to keep first, plus paperwork and valuables
• Sorting items to sell, donate, recycle or dispose of
• Clearing lofts, garages, sheds and gardens if agreed
• Sweeping or cleaning the property afterwards, if included

Check the waste licence

You can be held responsible if your waste is fly tipped. Check the clearance firm's waste carrier registration with the Environment Agency and keep the receipt or waste transfer note.

Reducing the cost

Furniture in good condition can sometimes be resold or donated, which some firms offset against the price. Removing items you want to keep and anything of value before the visit helps the firm give a fixed price.

What a house clearance usually includes

A full house clearance in Leeds normally covers furniture, white goods, carpets, kitchen items, clothes and loft and garage contents. Some clearance firms also offer a deep clean afterwards, which is useful at the end of a tenancy or before a sale. Garden waste and sheds may be extra.

Getting a house clearance quote

• Ask for a free visit or send photos of every room, loft and garage.
• Ask for a fixed price, not an estimate by the van load.
• Ask what will be recycled or donated and what goes to landfill.
• Check whether the price includes VAT and disposal charges for fridges and mattresses.
