What it is

Full Property Clearances: what the work involves

A full property clearance means exactly that: nothing left behind anywhere on the site. Where a standard house clearance can sometimes leave a garage or loft to a separate visit, a full property clearance is planned as one complete job covering every room, the loft, the garage, any sheds or outbuildings, and the garden, so the property is entirely empty and ready to hand over at the end.

This is the service most often needed for larger jobs: an estate being settled, a landlord taking back a property that a tenant has left in a poor state, or a family selling a house that has been lived in for decades and has accumulated belongings in every corner of it. Because it is a bigger undertaking, we plan the day carefully, working systematically through the property so nothing is missed and nothing is done twice.

As with all our work, we sort as we clear: items suitable for reuse or charity donation are set aside where possible, recyclable materials are separated, and only genuine waste is taken to landfill. We are fully insured, and being a two-person business means the same people who quote the job are the ones doing the physical work and making the on-the-spot decisions throughout the day.

We carry out full property clearances across Abingdon, Oxford, Didcot, Wantage, Wallingford, Witney, Kidlington, Bicester and the surrounding areas, for landlords, executors, agents and homeowners who need a whole site dealt with reliably in one go rather than in a series of separate bookings.

Who it is for

  • Landlords taking back a property left full by a previous tenant
  • Executors or families clearing an entire estate property in one go
  • Homeowners selling a property that needs to be completely empty for completion
  • Anyone needing every part of a property, house, garage, loft and garden, dealt with together

When it is needed

  • A property needs to be completely empty ahead of a sale completion or new tenancy
  • A tenant has left a property in poor condition and it needs a full reset
  • An entire estate is being settled and every part of the property needs clearing at once
  • You want one visit to deal with the whole property rather than several separate bookings

What goes wrong

Why care and planning matter

These are the problems we are called in to put right after a rushed clearance. Every one of them is easier to avoid at the quote stage than to sort out afterwards.

Underestimating the scale of the job

A full property, including loft, garage and garden, is a bigger job than most people expect, and trying to arrange it piecemeal often takes far longer than planning it as one visit. We scope the whole property at quote stage so nothing is missed.

Missing a completion or handover deadline

Sales and tenancy handovers are usually tied to a fixed date, and a property that is not fully empty can delay the whole process. Booking a full clearance early, with a clear scope, avoids that risk.

Leaving outbuildings or the garden unaddressed

Sheds, greenhouses and garden waste are easy to overlook when focus is on the house itself, but they still need to be dealt with before a property can be considered fully cleared. We include these in the scope from the outset.

Items ending up in landfill unnecessarily

On a large job it can be tempting to clear everything into one skip without sorting. We separate as we go so reusable and recyclable items are not wasted simply because of the size of the job.

Booking separate trades before the property is empty

Decorators, cleaners, inventory checks and viewings all work better once a property is genuinely empty rather than partly cleared. Arranging a full property clearance first, before booking any follow-on trades, avoids wasted call-outs and repeated visits to the same rooms.

How it works

Our process, from first call to final sweep

01

Free quote and full survey

We walk the whole property, house, loft, garage, outbuildings and garden, and give you one clear, free price for the entire job.

02

Agree a date and scope

We confirm exactly what is included so there are no surprises on the day, and book a date that fits your deadline.

03

Systematic clearance

We work through the property in a planned order, room by room and then outbuildings and garden, so nothing is missed.

04

Sort and dispose responsibly

Items are separated for reuse, charity donation where possible, and recycling, with landfill kept to a genuine last resort.

05

Final walk-round

We check every room, the loft, garage and garden with you or the agent before confirming the property is fully clear.

In detail

Full Property Clearances: how we handle it

What is included in a full property clearance

A full property clearance covers every internal room, the loft or attic, the garage, any sheds or outbuildings, and the garden, including furniture, appliances, personal belongings, tools, garden equipment and general accumulated items. It is designed so that nothing is left over for a second visit.

  • Every room in the house
  • Loft or attic space
  • Garage and any outbuildings or sheds
  • Garden furniture, equipment and general garden waste
  • Any remaining fixtures the client wants removed, such as old curtains or carpets

Larger and more complex jobs

Full property clearances are often the right choice for landlords, executors and families dealing with a property that has not been actively lived in or maintained for some time, where belongings have spread across every part of the site rather than being confined to the house itself.

We plan these jobs in advance based on the full survey, so the day of the clearance runs to a clear sequence rather than being figured out on the spot. That planning is part of why a two-person team can take on a job of this size efficiently.

Working with agents, landlords and solicitors

We regularly liaise directly with letting agents, estate agents and solicitors to confirm access, keys and timing for a full property clearance, particularly where the client themselves is not local or is managing several things at once. We are happy to provide confirmation once the property has been fully cleared for whoever needs it.

What is and isn't included

A full property clearance deals with the contents of a property: everything that can be lifted, carried or wheeled out, from furniture and appliances down to the smallest boxes in a loft. It does not include structural work, building repairs, deep cleaning services, or the removal of fitted kitchens and bathrooms, though we are happy to point out anything of that kind that a client may want to arrange separately.

If there is any doubt about whether something is included, such as a shed the client wants to keep, or fixtures that came with the house, we agree this clearly during the survey so the scope is settled before work begins rather than being a point of confusion on the day.

Landlord and end-of-tenancy full clearances

For landlords, a full property clearance often follows a tenancy that has ended badly, with items left behind throughout the house, garage and garden that need dealing with before the property can be re-let. Because these jobs are frequently tied to void periods and new tenancy start dates, we prioritise turning the property around quickly once booked, and we are happy to provide confirmation of completion for the landlord's or agent's records.

This differs from a standard house clearance mainly in scope: rather than agreeing which rooms need doing, a full property clearance assumes everything on site is included from the outset, which tends to suit landlords and agents who want one clear instruction rather than a room-by-room negotiation.

How pricing works on a full clearance

Because a full property clearance covers the entire site, pricing is based on the total volume across the house, garage, loft, outbuildings and garden together, plus access factors such as parking, stairs and the distance from the property to the van. A full survey lets us walk every area before quoting, which is particularly important on a job of this scope where an estimate based on the house alone could miss a garage or shed that turns out to be just as full.

This applies wherever the property is, whether it is a townhouse in Oxford, a family home in Didcot or Wantage, or a larger property with outbuildings near Wallingford or Bicester, and the quote and survey remain free with no obligation either way.

Full property clearances are carried out across Abingdon, Oxford, Didcot, Wantage, Wallingford, Witney, Kidlington, Bicester and the wider Oxfordshire area. See our service areas for the full list, or start from the homepage for an overview of how we work.

Questions

Full Property Clearances questions we are asked most

What is the difference between a house clearance and a full property clearance?+

A full property clearance is scoped from the outset to include everything on the site: house, loft, garage, outbuildings and garden, in one coordinated visit rather than separate bookings.

Can you clear a property a tenant has left in poor condition?+

Yes, this is a common reason landlords book a full property clearance, and we treat it the same way as any other job, sorting and disposing responsibly.

How long does a full property clearance take?+

It depends on the size of the property and how much is inside it. We give a time estimate along with the quote after the survey.

Do you include the garden and any sheds?+

Yes, gardens, sheds and outbuildings are included in the scope of a full property clearance.

How much does a full property clearance cost?+

It depends on the size of the property and everything it contains, so a free survey lets us give you an accurate, honest price.

Can you meet a fixed completion date?+

Yes, we plan around sale completions and tenancy handover dates, and same-day or emergency clearance can often be arranged if the date is close.

Will you liaise directly with our letting agent or solicitor?+

Yes, we are happy to coordinate access, timing and confirmation of completion directly with an agent or solicitor.

Are items still sorted for recycling and donation on a large job?+

Yes, we sort as we go regardless of the size of the job, with reuse and recycling prioritised ahead of landfill.

Do you need keys or can someone let you in on the day?+

Either works; we can collect keys from an agent, a neighbour or the client directly, whatever is easiest to arrange for the property in question.

Do you cover full property clearances across Oxfordshire?+

Yes, including Abingdon, Oxford, Didcot, Wantage, Wallingford, Witney, Kidlington and Bicester, with same-day and emergency options often available where a deadline is close.
