2/3

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.

Torquay is the largest town in Torbay and has a Victorian character shaped by its history as the English Riviera: grand seafront hotels, ornate villas on the hillsides above the harbour, and a substantial stock of retirement and second-home properties that generate steady clearance work. The Wellswood and St Marychurch areas have some of the most substantial Victorian housing in the town, and clearances here often involve contents accumulated over long periods of comfortable retirement. Torre and Chelston contain more modest terraced stock that turns over more frequently. As a retirement destination Torquay has a higher-than-average rate of probate clearances, and we work regularly with executors and solicitors across the Torbay area.

House clearance in Torquay

We clear all types of property in Torquay and the surrounding area: full property clearances, probate and estate clearances, and bereavement clearances. Our team arrives with the right vehicles and equipment, removes everything agreed, and handles all disposal responsibly.

We are licensed waste carriers. Everything we remove is handled correctly. Items in good condition go to our own resale channels or to charity, and what cannot be reused is disposed of through registered facilities.

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 Torquay 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.
