We recently completed a free house clearance in Blackburn for a client who needed the property emptied after their relative’s passing. Below, we’ll outline the client’s requirements and how we carried out the clearance efficiently and respectfully.
Customer Requirements
“My uncle’s house in Blackburn needs to be cleared. He lived there for over 40 years, and there’s a lot of stuff still inside—some valuable, some just old and worn-out. The house has three bedrooms, a loft, and a garage that’s packed with tools and old furniture. We’ve taken any personal or sentimental belongings, but the rest needs to go. I’d like it done properly, with anything in good condition donated rather than wasted.”
Contents Overview
The property contained a mix of items, including:
- A large mahogany sideboard with decorative carvings.
- A set of leather armchairs, slightly worn but still in good condition.
- Several antique clocks, some working and some in need of repair.
- A collection of old newspapers, postcards, and wartime memorabilia.
- Three bedrooms full of furniture, including wardrobes, bedside tables, and dressers.
- A kitchen filled with crockery, cutlery, and an old but functioning fridge-freezer.
- A loft filled with boxes of old books, suitcases, and forgotten belongings.
- A garage packed with hand tools, power tools, and rusted gardening equipment.
The House Clearance in Blackburn
We arrived early in the morning and conducted a walkthrough with the client to confirm what needed removing. Sentimental and valuable items were set aside, and we ensured that anything in good condition was earmarked for donation or resale.
We started with the living room, carefully removing the furniture and setting aside the antique clocks for assessment. The bedrooms were next, with all furniture cleared efficiently while ensuring anything reusable was saved.
The loft took some time, as it contained years of stored belongings. We sorted through the boxes, setting aside anything historically significant before clearing the rest.
The garage, which was the most cluttered area, required detailed sorting. Usable tools were donated to a local workshop, while rusted or broken equipment was sent for recycling.
By the afternoon, the entire house was cleared, leaving it ready for the client to proceed with the next steps.
Client Review
“I couldn’t have asked for a better service. The team was professional, efficient, and handled everything with care. It’s a huge relief to have the house cleared, and I really appreciate how much they donated rather than just throwing everything away. Highly recommended!”
