House Clearance in Looe, Cornwall

Complete house clearance of a fully furnished property in Looe, on Cornwall's south east coast.

This was a house with a great deal in it. The front room alone held bookcases along three walls, a table covered in smaller items, pictures hung nearly floor to ceiling and the accumulated belongings of many years of living there. Rooms like this take longer than their size suggests, because the volume sits in the small things rather than the furniture, and small things have to be sorted rather than simply carried.

We cleared every room: bedroom furniture, personal effects, kitchen contents and household belongings. The books were checked before anything was bagged. Books are one of the few categories where something genuinely valuable turns up in the middle of fifty that are not, and it is worth the ten minutes to look properly.

Everything else was sorted as we loaded. Items with resale value went to our own auctions and resale channels, with the value recovered set against the clearance cost. Usable household goods went to reuse and to local charities, glass and ceramics were separated out, and only what could not be saved went for licensed disposal, with a waste transfer note issued on completion.

Looe is a town of narrow streets and steep access, so parking and the carry distance were agreed before the day rather than discovered on it. That is worth doing anywhere on the south coast.
