Estate cleanouts in Massachusetts and Rhode Island

Clearing out a loved one's home is hard work, and most of it isn't physical. We can take the sorting and hauling off your hands, and you don't have to be there for all of it. Tell us what you want kept and we'll work from that.

The first call is just a conversation about the house and your timeline. There's no obligation.

What we take care of

Here's what that looks like on a typical estate job.

  • We clear the whole house, including the attic, basement, and garage.
  • Furniture and appliances of any size go with us.
  • We do all the carrying. You don't have to touch anything you'd rather not.
  • The house is left empty and swept for the sale or handover.
  • You decide what stays and what goes.
  • Usable items can be donated to local charities if you'd like.
  • We schedule around probate and closing dates.
  • If we can get into the house, you don't need to be there.

Anything that might matter comes back to you

This is what families ask about most. As we work, we set aside anything that could mean something to you: photos, papers, jewelry, letters, and the small things people tuck into drawers and boxes. All of it is handed back to you at the end.

Families are often looking for one particular thing, like a ring, a deed, or an old photo. Tell us what it is before we start and we'll keep an eye out for it in every room. We almost always find it.

We don't keep anything that belongs to your family. Handing those things back is part of the job, and it's a big reason families call us again and send their friends our way.

If you live out of state

A lot of the families we work with are handling the house from somewhere else, on top of their own jobs. If we can get into the house, you don't need to fly in. We can work from photos, a walkthrough over the phone, and your instructions. We'll keep you posted while we work and set aside anything we find for you.
