House Clearance Hayle
Professional house clearance in Hayle, Cornwall. Free no-obligation quotes from Lanora House, based in Hayle, West Cornwall.
of everything we clear is saved from landfill
Most of what we take away is reused, donated, or recycled rather than sent to a skip. A real figure from our own jobs.
Hayle is our home base. We are at Unit 12b, The Old Foundry Chapel, in the heart of the town, which means clearances in Hayle get the fastest response times and the most local knowledge of any area we cover. The town has a fascinating industrial heritage rooted in the Harveys Foundry and the Cornish Copper Company, and older properties around Copperhouse and Foundry still reflect that character, sometimes containing industrial artefacts or period fittings accumulated over generations. Hayle is also growing quickly, with new residential development around the estuary and the proposed Hayle regeneration area, and clearances arise both from older stock and from more recent conversions.
Areas we cover in and around Hayle: Copperhouse, Foundry, Phillack, Lelant, St Erth, Connor Downs, Gwinear, Leedstown.
House clearance in Hayle
Because Hayle is home, a lot of our work is right on our doorstep, and the range is wide. We have cleared family homes in the town for probate, including a grandmother's house where the family told us we were the most straightforward part of an otherwise difficult probate. We have emptied a two bedroom property in half a day, cleared rented rooms and tenants' leftovers so landlords could relet quickly, and taken on a large commercial job: a four day warehouse clearance for Kids R Us that saved around four shipping containers of costumes and props from landfill.
We also work all through the villages around Hayle, with recent jobs in St Erth, Fraddam, Leedstown and Praze-an-Beeble, from full probate clearances to rubbish and soil removal. Local businesses use us too, from a quayside kitchen to a storage container cleared on behalf of a client who no longer lived in the area.
Being based in town means we can usually visit quickly, quote fast and fit smaller jobs in between bigger ones, which keeps the cost down for you.
Why our clearances often cost less
Items of value recovered during a clearance (furniture, antiques, collectables, quality household goods) are passed back as a reduction in your clearance cost. In some cases, particularly where a property contains items of real worth, the clearance costs nothing at all.
We are based in Hayle, West Cornwall, and travel to Hayle regularly. Travel is factored into our quote and never added afterwards.
What happens to the contents
On average, we save around two-thirds of everything we clear from landfill on each clearance. Furniture, books, clothing, and household goods in reasonable condition are taken to our own resale channels or donated to local charities. What cannot be reused or donated is disposed of through registered facilities. We are happy to tell families exactly what happened to belongings.

Warehouse Clearance in Hayle for Kids R Us
Commercial warehouse clearance in Hayle, Cornwall, for Kids R Us. Over four days we cleared a large warehouse packed with rails of fancy dress costumes, props, shelving and stored stock, and handed it back empty and swept. The best part was how much we saved. Rather than skipping it, we sorted everything as we went and kept around four shipping containers' worth of costumes and props out of landfill. Some of it was instantly recognisable, including character costumes such as Mickey Mouse, alongside rail after rail of outfits, wigs, hats and party props. Shelving and racking was taken down and kept for reuse too. We priced the clearance at £2,000, which is less than the labour and disposal cost us on the day. We could do that because the stock has real resale value, and we will sell it on over time. It helped Kids R Us clear the building quickly and affordably, and it gave thousands of costumes a second life. This is how we approach every commercial clearance. Stock, fixtures and equipment are sorted for resale and reuse first, and only what genuinely cannot be saved goes for licensed disposal, with a waste transfer note provided. If you have a warehouse, unit, shop or office to clear in Hayle or anywhere in Cornwall, call for a free visit and a written quote. Honestly, this was one of the most fun jobs we have done.

Full House Clearance in Hayle, Cornwall
Full house clearance of a two bedroom property in Hayle, cleared in half a day by our own team. The main room was a through lounge running the depth of the house, with the staircase open into it. That is a layout that looks generous until you have to carry a three piece suite out past the bottom step. The suite, a patterned sofa and two armchairs, was the bulk of the job, along with boxed belongings stacked along the walls and the contents of the alcove shelving beside the chimney breast. Hayle is where we are based, which is part of why this one moved so quickly. We loaded straight to the van rather than staging everything in the garden, and sorted as we went. Upholstery was checked for its fire label, wood was separated for recycling, and anything reusable was set aside for our resale channels rather than going over the weighbridge. The property was left swept, floors clear, fixtures untouched. Nothing was stripped out. The built-in shelving and the radiators stayed exactly as they were, because a clearance empties a property rather than dismantling it. Most of what came out of this house avoided landfill. That is not a slogan, it is the reason the price came in where it did. Disposal cost is the largest variable in any clearance quote, and sorting properly keeps it down. If you have a two or three bed property to clear in Hayle, St Ives, Camborne or anywhere in West Cornwall, call for a free no-obligation visit and a written price.

Full Probate Clearance
St Erth
Recently we carried out a probate house clearance in St Erth, which included clearing 2 outdoor buildings alongside the main property. As always with probate work, we took extra care given the sensitivity of the job for the family involved. One nice touch on this one, the incoming tenant had mentioned they liked the garden as it was, so after confirming with the family first, we left the plant pots in place rather than clearing them out too. Both outbuildings were emptied and the site left tidy and ready to hand over. If you need a considerate, well organised probate clearance in the St Erth area, including sheds, garages or outbuildings, get in touch and we'll talk you through how we work.

Soil Removal Leedstown, Cornwall

Excavated soil is heavy, awkward and surprisingly difficult to get rid of, skips often won't take it, and most householders don't have anywhere to put it. This soil removal job in Leedstown, Cornwall, solved that problem quickly and efficiently, clearing a significant volume of excavated material from the property so the landscaping project could continue without delay. We loaded and removed the soil using appropriate equipment, taking care not to damage the surrounding area or access route. Soil and inert materials are separated from other waste at our disposal site, with clean soil recycled for use in landscaping and civil engineering projects wherever possible. Soil removal is a specialist service that many general waste companies won't tackle, we do it regularly across West Cornwall, from small garden excavations to larger groundworks clearances.

What our customers say
Fantastic team and service. They were professional, friendly and compassionate in difficult circumstances. They went above and beyond and were reliable and trustworthy. They cleared the house and did an incredible job of cleaning. Highly recommend.
We used Matt and Lanora House to clear a storage container on behalf of a client who was no longer local to the area. They were competitively priced and provided an extremely efficient service. I would recommend them for house/furniture clearances.
I contacted Matthew a month or so ago regarding a house clearance, after being let down by other companies. He kept his promise and attended on time, and at short notice for a quotation. I found him empathetic, helpful and attentive. His price was reasonable, and I had no hesitation in proceeding. It’s also worth mentioning, Matthew patiently waited a few weeks after an unexpected wobble with the sale, and when he and Ben attended yesterday, at the agreed time, nothing was too much trouble in clearing the house with friendly professional efficiency. How they coped in this heatwave, I will never know. I was delighted to find this local company, and have no hesitation in recommending them; they have proved trustworthy and reliable with impeccable customer service. Thank you!
The lads did a house clearance for my grandmother in Hayle , the whole probate was a nightmare. Seemingly this was the most straight forward part. Thanks again
Hard working and reliable team. Arrived promptly and worked nonstop until the house was clear . They handled our belongings with sensitivity and were constantly polite. I would be happy to work with them again.
Matthew has been an absolute star from the moment I met him. He has managed the job of collating and selling my late sister's memorabilia collection with enthusiasm, passion and professionalism. I have been delighted to have been able to pass on the considerable proceeds to the charity that helped my sister rehome her beloved dogs when she became too ill to manage them. Thank you Matthew and all involved.
