The Clearance

Protecting Important Possessions
A professional clearance is not simply about removing everything from a property.
Customers may need photographs, paperwork, personal belongings or sentimental possessions to remain. These items can easily become mixed with unwanted contents, particularly when clearing a property containing years of accumulated belongings.
For this Durham Road clearance, identified possessions were kept separate while the team concentrated on removing only the agreed items.
The Result
At the end of the clearance, the agreed household contents had been removed and the property was left more accessible for cleaning, inspection and whatever preparations were required next.
