Estate Cleanouts in Novi & Northville, MI Whole Homes Cleared, Room by Room

Clearing out a parent's home or a property you're settling as executor is a lot to take on. Once the family has what it wants, we clear the rest, room by room, so the house is ready for what comes next.

  • Whole houses, from attic to basement to garage
  • On-site estimate before any work starts
  • Works with families, executors and realtors

We'll contact you to confirm details and schedule your pickup.

A cleanout that fits the rest of the process

An estate cleanout is usually one step in a longer list: sorting keepsakes, maybe an estate sale, then getting the house ready to list or hand back. We fit in at the end of that list and clear what's left so the next step can start.

When a home has been in the same family for decades, the living space is usually only part of the job. There are also full basements, attics and garages. We work through all of it: furniture, beds, appliances, boxes, closets and the garage.

If you're managing the house from out of state, tell us that in the form. We'll plan the estimate and the cleanout around what works for you and the realtor.

How an estate cleanout works

  1. Family takes what matters

    Keepsakes, documents, photos and anything going to relatives come out first. If you're holding an estate sale, it happens before we arrive.

  2. On-site estimate

    We walk the house with you or your representative, confirm what stays and what goes, and give you a price before any work starts.

  3. We clear the house

    Room by room, including the basement, attic and garage, until the house is empty and ready for cleaning, repairs or listing.

Why curbside pickup can't handle an estate

Local bulk pickup programs are designed for a few large items a week, not a whole household. The City of Northville's program specifically excludes basement, attic and apartment cleanouts. Bloomfield Township asks residents to keep bulk items to around two or three per week. In the City of Plymouth, every couch, dresser and mattress needs its own paid sticker. Clearing a full house through curbside pickup would take months and a lot of carrying.

A cleanout crew does it in one visit, or a few for very large homes, and the house is ready when the realtor needs it.

Estate cleanout FAQ

When in the process should we call you?

After the family has taken what they want to keep and, if you're using one, after the estate sale. We clear whatever is left so the house is ready for cleaning, repairs or listing.

Can you quote an estate cleanout from photos?

Photos help, but a whole house is hard to price accurately from pictures. For estate cleanouts we usually do a quick on-site estimate first so there are no surprises on the day.

Can't the city's bulk pickup handle it?

Not a whole house. Curbside programs are built for a few large items per week. The City of Northville's program specifically excludes basement, attic and apartment cleanouts, and Bloomfield Township asks residents to keep bulk items to two or three per week.

Do we need to be there during the cleanout?

Someone needs to walk through with us to confirm what stays and what goes. After that, tell us what works for you and we'll plan around it.

What happens to hazardous items in the house?

Old paint, chemicals and fuel can't go in the truck. Set them aside and use your community's household hazardous waste program, or ask us and we'll tell you which program applies to that address.
