Estate Clearance Services - Why Use A Professional?

It's a fact that families can be scattered across the country, even around the world.  In so many situations there is no-one around to do the physical work of clearing out an estate property.  Well-meaning friends may want to assist, however, there are many benefits of using a professional estate clearance service.  

Some of the benefits are detailed below:

    • It takes the pressure off family/friends in during a truly trying and stressful time.
    • A professional service knows what to look for.
    • Documents aren't thrown out in error (Certificate of Titles, Statements, Share Certificates, Insurance records etc).
    • The service will have appropriate insurance.
    • Service employees will have been police checked.
    • An external service isn't emotionally invested in the estate.  This doesn't mean all care and attention is waived, it simply means the sorting is able to be done more efficiently & effectively.
    • They work directly with Solicitors & Executors around each estate.  Each estate is different with its own intricacies and possible challenges.
    • Consent is sought before disposing of any property.
    • The service will do as little, or as much of the clearance as instructed.  This can include getting a property ready for sale, donations of items to charity and locating household items bequeathed to beneficiaries.
