How Much Do Estate Cleanouts Cost

​The cost of estate cleanouts varies from project to project, Influential factors include the size of the property, the volume of items to be removed, project location, and the specific services required. Each cleanout is unique and as such we offer personalized consultations that allow us to assess your situation and provide customized project packages and pricing. We aim to deliver efficient service that meets your needs while respecting your budget.

Why Should I Hire an Estate Cleanout Company

Many of our past clients have told us that they attempted to conduct the cleanout themselves prior to hiring us. As someone who has orchestrated many cleanouts - it is no easy task. Many people underestimate the necessary manpower, logistics, and equipment necessary to complete an estate cleanout. Here are some of the most common reasons people choose to hire versus completing the job themselves.

  • Saving Time - Coordinating a cleanout can take a tremendous amount of effort. For the uninitiated, clearing out a property can be slow going. On your own, it can take weeks to months - even longer if you live out of town or state. While every project is different - we complete most residential cleanouts in just 1 or 2 days! Reclaim your time and focus on the things that matter most.

  • Reduce Stress - We understand the challenges associated with estate cleanouts. That is why we offer custom-tailored project packages to provide you with everything you need. When you're facing the daunting task of clearing out a loved one's estate put your trust in a team that can handle every aspect of the cleanout process, ensuring a seamless and (as much as possible) stress-free experience.

  • Stay Safe - Beyond the physical nature of cleanouts - they can also be dangerous in unassuming ways. Animal droppings, dust, and many other factors (especially in older homes) can quickly become health risks. Stay safe and hire an experienced team that knows what to look for and how to navigate potentially hazardous situations.

  • Auxiliary Services - Not all cleanouts are made equal. Sometimes a project requires more than just a dumpster and trash bags. That is why we offer auxiliary services to aid in providing the most comprehensive service packages possible.

Not Everything Is Trash!

Carolina Junk Pros prioritizes sustainability and community support. Unlike other companies, we do not trash everything. When clearing out an estate we first begin by identifying what items can be donated or recycled. Our team is experienced in identifying critical items that can benefit local charities and organizations, ensuring they continue to serve a purpose rather than ending up in a landfill. By focusing on responsible disposal, your loved ones' belongings can continue to contribute positively to the environment and the community.

What do I Need to do to Prepare for an Estate Cleanout

Technically, you do not need to do anything to prepare for our arrival. It all depends on the level of cleanout or the services chosen during the initial consultation.

 

If the majority of items are to be donated, recycled, or disposed of - preparation is not necessary. Our team is trained to identify and set aside - valuables, important documents, family photos, etc. We will also take additional direction from you in terms of items to keep.

However, if you are intent on sorting through the house of your own accord - we highly recommend doing so before we come. Trying to sort while we are onsite can significantly hinder the cleanout process. Here are some tips from the pros to make things a little easier.

  • Create a Plan - Don't go into it blind. Establish a clear plan for sorting. Consider dividing the estate into manageable sections and tackling one area at a time.

  • Take Your Time - Allow yourself the necessary time to sort through belongings. Rushing can lead to overlooking important items or making hasty decisions.

  • Categorize - Sort items into categories such as keep, donate, sell, and discard. This will help streamline the process and make decision-making easier. It will also help us when we come in to conduct the cleanout.

  • Get Help - Sorting through an entire estate can be a massive undertaking. Don't go at it alone. Get help from friends and family. 

  • Get Supplies - As you progress pack and label items you want to move or put into storage. Things like boxes, tape, sharpies, and totes will help you stay organized.

For many clients, the process can be overwhelming and an emotional burden. While other companies might treat this as just another job - Carolina Junk Pros views estate cleanouts and similar projects as a service helping those in need. We sincerely aim to provide the best services possible to get you through a difficult time in life. If you're faced with the daunting task of handling an estate, give us a call to see how we can help.
