House Clearance in Birmingham

A full house clearance covers labour to remove all items from every room, hallway, loft, and outbuilding in one visit. We supply all equipment — trolleys, bags, and lifting gear — and dismantle furniture if needed to fit through doorways or down stairs. We sweep and tidy after removal so the property is ready for handover or sale.

We take sofas, mattresses, beds, wardrobes, kitchen units, boilers, cookers, fridges, freezers, electronics, books, ornaments, and general household waste. We do not remove asbestos, hazardous chemicals, or items still containing refrigerant that hasn't been certified as drained. If you're unsure whether an item qualifies, we assess it on site.

For probate clearances, we separate items with potential resale value — furniture, antiques, collectibles — so you can arrange valuation separately or donate them to our charitable reuse partners. Everything else is either recycled, sent to licensed waste facilities, or taken to the appropriate disposal route. You receive a waste transfer note documenting all removal and disposal.

We operate under Hazardous Waste Regulations 2005 and the WEEE Regulations 2013, which cover electrical items like fridges, cookers, televisions, and computers. Before removal, we drain all refrigerant from cooling appliances in line with F-gas regulation and ensure all electricals are logged on our waste transfer note — you receive a copy for your records.

Sofas and mattresses are processed separately under persistent organic pollutants (POPs) rules; we work only with licensed waste carriers who handle them correctly. Textiles, metal, wood, and cardboard go to recycling facilities. Usable items — clothes, crockery, furniture in good condition — go to British Heart Foundation or Emmaus stockrooms, reducing landfill and supporting community reuse.

We're a licensed waste carrier registered with the Environment Agency. Every job produces a duty of care waste transfer note showing what left the property, where it went, and which facility received it. For probate sales, this documentation protects the executor and satisfies any council or solicitor inquiries about responsible disposal.

1. Book and surveyRing us on 07751 979473 or request a free quote online. If the property is large or complex (multiple floors, loft access, garden shed), we visit to assess volume and identify any access barriers.
2. Confirm the date and time windowWe agree a date and give you a two-hour ETA window. For probate clearances, we can coordinate with your solicitor's completion date.
3. Arrival and walk-throughOur team photos the property on arrival, confirms what's to be removed, and identifies any items you want kept or separately valued.
4. Load and clearWe remove all items, dismantle furniture as needed, and load into our vehicle. Typical houses take 3–5 hours depending on volume.
5. Clean and inspectWe sweep floors, remove any nails or fixings, and leave the property broom-clean.
6. Payment and paperworkYou pay on completion. We hand you the waste transfer note and a signed job sheet. A copy of all disposal routes is sent to you within 48 hours.

Birmingham's older residential areas — Edgbaston, Harborne, Quinton — often feature Victorian and Edwardian properties with narrow hallways, steep stairs, and tight room corners. Our team expects this and routinely dismantles bed frames, mirrors, and large wardrobes to navigate them. We also carry portable ramps for ground-floor access where kerbs or steps would delay removal.

Parking permits are required in many inner-city postcodes; we confirm permit zones at booking and park on-street legally or arrange temporary bay suspension if the property is in a controlled zone. Terraced houses with single driveways often mean we load from the street rather than the property — we factor this into time estimates and ensure nothing is left blocking neighbours' access.

Council HWRCs (Bulking Lane in Winson Green, Tyseley Waste Management) accept some items but refuse others — and opening hours are limited. We handle the HWRC routing for you, so you don't spend weeks making trips. For postcodes like B6, B12, and B20 where flats above shops are common, we're experienced at accessing upper-floor properties via narrow shared stairwells and coordinating with neighbours.
