We recently completed a free house clearance in Newcastle upon Tyne for a client facing the difficult task of clearing a deceased relative’s home. This case study outlines their needs and how we efficiently carried out the clearance.
Customer Requirements
“My father’s house in Newcastle needs to be cleared. He passed away earlier this year, and I’ve been struggling to deal with it. The house is packed with furniture, clothing, kitchenware, and various sentimental items. There’s also a garage filled with old tools and a loft that hasn’t been touched in decades. I need a professional team to handle everything so I can move forward.”
Contents Overview
The property contained a mix of household items, personal belongings, and valuables, including:
- A mahogany writing desk and antique wooden bookcase
- A collection of old records and cassette tapes
- Several boxes of photographs, letters, and personal keepsakes
- A full wardrobe of clothing, including vintage coats and shoes
- A set of china and glassware from the dining room cabinet
- A garage filled with woodworking tools, a bicycle, and gardening equipment
- A loft stacked with old suitcases, documents, and unused furniture
The Free Property Clearance in Newcastle
Our team arrived early in the morning and conducted a walkthrough with the client to identify any items they wanted to keep. Personal belongings such as photographs and sentimental documents were set aside before we began clearing the property.
We started with the main living areas, carefully removing furniture and boxing up smaller items for charity donation. Reusable furniture, including the writing desk and bookcase, was set aside for resale, while damaged or unsalvageable items were sorted for recycling. The clothing was packed for donation to local charities, ensuring they would benefit those in need.
The loft required extra care due to its cluttered state. Our team carefully sorted through old keepsakes, allowing the client to retrieve meaningful items before clearing the remaining contents. Finally, we tackled the garage, separating tools for resale, recycling broken equipment, and disposing of any hazardous materials responsibly.
By the afternoon, the property was fully cleared, allowing the client to take the next steps without the burden of sorting through everything alone.
Client Review
“I can’t thank The Cluttered House Clearance Company enough. The team was professional, efficient, and incredibly considerate throughout the process. It was a daunting task, but they made it so much easier. Everything was handled with care, and I felt relieved knowing that useful items were being donated and not just thrown away. I highly recommend their services to anyone in a similar situation.”
