About this service
What house clearance bristol actually looks like.
Clearing a Bristol home is almost never just about skip fill. The call usually comes from an executor with a deadline, a landlord with a tenancy ending Friday, or a family helping a parent move into something smaller. Pricing’s volume-based: £150 for a 2-yard load (around 25 bin bags, small clearance), £290 for 6 yards (a room or the loft), £370 for 8 yards (multiple rooms) and £430 for 10 yards (full-house, attic to garden). No VAT, no call-out. I’ll give you an estimate from what you tell me up front, and confirm the price when I’m there — the confirmed figure is what you pay.
Probate and bereavement jobs
Probate work isn’t a standard clearance. The family is usually juggling a solicitor, a selling agent and a lot of paperwork. I work quietly, keep to a schedule that suits the family rather than the van, and set aside anything that might be wanted (photos, documents, jewellery, specific pieces of furniture) before anything goes in the van. If something needs checking before a decision, it stays put until you’ve had a chance to look.
Landlord and end-of-tenancy turnarounds
Different pace, different paperwork. Landlords usually want the property empty by a specific date, a waste transfer note for their records, and often a photo set once it’s done so the inventory sign-off is straightforward. I’ll book evenings and weekends where needed so the window between tenancies doesn’t stretch into a third week.
Downsizing without throwing good stuff away
Downsizing jobs are where decisions get made in real time. I’ll pace the day around the homeowner rather than march through room by room — a cup of tea, a chair, decisions on the pieces that matter, and a faster pass on the stuff that doesn’t. Anything donatable gets set aside for a charity that’ll take it rather than going straight to the tip.

Frequently asked
House Clearance Bristol— common questions.
How much does a house clearance cost in Bristol?
Volume-based: £150 for a small clearance (2 yd / about 25 bin bags), £290 for 6 yd, £370 for 8 yd, £430 for 10 yd (full-house, attic to garden). I’ll estimate from your description and confirm on the day.
Can you do a Bristol house clearance at short notice?
Often within 48 hours. Probate and end-of-tenancy jobs usually have a date that can’t move — tell me the date and I’ll work backwards.
Do you work around a solicitor or estate agent?
Regularly. Send the contact and I’ll coordinate access, paperwork and completion timing directly so the family doesn’t have to sit in the middle of it.
