CLIENT SERVICES

    

House Clearance & Removal Services

The circumstances which require a house clearance are usually very stressful. Our comprehensive house clearance service aims to take the stress out of this and make it as easy for you as possible. We pride ourselves on being reliable and sympathetic and can give advice in all matters.

We are an established professional Auction Company with a strong reputation. We act for you throughout. In an ever changing Collectable Market, you just may have a hidden gem waiting to be found!

All items are sold at The Lichfield Auction Centre, a modern saleroom which cater for all aspects of the Auction World - from household effects to Fine Art, cars to medals. Whatever we find it's to your benefit, even if you are not sure what you have. 'It's better to safe than sorry'. Our qualified experts are on hand to offer their advice and up to date market knowledge.

We offer complete and part house clearance services to our clients, emptying the house of all it's contents, properly disposing of all that cannot be sold and clearing the house afterwards, ensuring that it is clean and tidy for the new occupants. This includes items which do not meet current fire / electrical regulations.

We can also recommend a cleaning company if you require it to be 'spotless' before selling or renting.

Paperwork
Full paperwork is provided, and we can arrange for any additional copies or correspondence that you may require for other family members/solicitors etc.

Valuations
We work closely with Solicitors, and our professional staff can provide full valuations in order to assist with the closing of estate and the disposal of general household items and full house contents on behalf of clients.

Important Note
Our initial advice is free of charge, so do not be afraid to call us, 'know the price before you sell'. Quotes for house clearances are given on an individual basis based on timings and logistics.
