Preparing for an Estate Cleanout: A Simple Checklist

Start by setting aside anything you want to keep — important documents, photos, jewelry, and sentimental items. Put them in a clearly marked room or box so nothing gets removed by mistake.

Next, decide what you’d like to donate versus discard. You don’t have to sort every drawer yourself; our crew can separate usable items for donation as we work, and we’ll coordinate the drop-offs for you.

Finally, give yourself time and grace. We work at your pace, room by room, and handle the heavy lifting with care and discretion. When we’re finished, the home is left empty and broom-clean and ready for sale or handover.
