What moves the price
- Volume of items to be cleared — more furniture and belongings mean more van loads, and each load adds to the disposal cost.
- Location — a house clearance far from the nearest disposal site takes longer and costs more.
- Size of the property — a larger house has more rooms, attic and shed space to empty, so the house clearance takes longer.
- Type of waste — old electrics, paint and chemicals need separate disposal and cost more than general household items.

How to pay less
- Selling or donating furniture and appliances in good condition before the house clearance reduces what is left to remove.
- Sorting what to keep, sell and clear before the team arrives shortens the job and can lower the house clearance price.
- Asking for the garden, attic and shed to be cleared on the same visit costs less than booking separate collections later.
- You can ask whether usable items will be resold, as some house clearance firms reduce the price for items they can sell.
Before you book
- Access to all areas of the property where items need to be cleared.
- A list of items you wish to keep versus those to be removed.
- Any necessary permissions for removing items from shared spaces or properties.
- Clear communication regarding sensitive items or special instructions.
- You can ask whether the clearance team is licensed to take waste away, where items end up, and whether they are insured for damage.
