Questions
Estate cleanout questions, answered
If you do not see your question here, call us. We would rather talk it through than have you guess.
What does an estate cleanout cost?
Most full-home cleanouts fall between a few hundred and a few thousand dollars, depending on the size of the home, how much is being kept versus removed, and whether items can be sold or donated to offset the cost. We give a written estimate after a free walkthrough, so there are no surprises.
How quickly can you start?
For most homes we can walk the property within a day or two and complete the work within a week. If you are working against a closing date or an out-of-town trip, tell us and we will build the schedule around it.
What happens to everything in the home?
We sort it with you. Anything the family keeps is set aside, items of value can be sold, usable goods are donated to local charities with receipts, recyclables are separated, and only what is left goes to the landfill.
Do we need to be there during the cleanout?
No. Many of our clients live out of state and handle everything by phone and photos. We can coordinate access, send progress pictures, and leave the home broom-clean for the next step.
Can you work with an estate attorney or realtor?
Yes. We regularly coordinate with attorneys handling probate and with agents preparing a home to list, and we can provide documentation of what was removed, sold, or donated.
Do you serve all of Naples & Southwest Florida?
Yes. We work throughout Naples & Southwest Florida, including Naples, Bonita Springs, Marco Island, Estero, Fort Myers, Cape Coral. If your home is close by but not listed, call and ask.
What if some rooms are extreme or unsafe?
We handle difficult homes, including heavy clutter and hoarding situations, discreetly and without judgment. If a home needs specialized cleaning beyond our scope, we will tell you plainly and point you to the right help.
