What to Look for in a London House Clearance Company

With so many to choose from in the city, finding the right company can be daunting. Here are a few things to consider:

• Licensed Waste Carriers: Choose a company that’s registered with the Environment Agency as a licensed waste carrier. This means your items will be disposed of legally and responsibly.
• Fully Insured: Check the company is fully insured, so you’re covered in case of any accidental damage during the clearance process.
• Eco-Friendly: Look for companies that are eco-friendly and will recycle, reuse items with resale value and donate to local charities where possible.
• Free Online Quote: Many companies offer a free quotation, so you can get an idea of the cost before you commit.
• Client Reviews: Check reviews or testimonials to see what others think of the company and their service.

How Does House Clearance Work?

Property clearance in London is simple but understanding the process can help you prepare and make it smoother:

1. Initial Assessment and Quote: Most clearance companies will assess the amount and type of items to be cleared and provide a free quote. For larger properties or more complex jobs they will visit the site for a more accurate estimate.
2. Booking the Clearance: Once you’ve accepted the quote you’ll book an appointed time for the clearance team to arrive. As many companies in central London, we offer same day or next day services so if you’re in a rush.
3. Removal and Disposal: On the day the team will do all the heavy lifting and removal. They’ll clear all the rooms you request, furniture, general junk and household rubbish.
4. Disposal or Donation of Items: Items are disposed of legally. Some items will go to disposing facilities, others will be donated to local charities if they’re in good condition.
5. Completion and Waste Transfer Note: Once completed you’ll receive a waste transfer note if hazardous materials were removed. This confirms the waste was disposed of properly.
