We make the difficult task of clearing a property as simple and straightforward as possible.
Our process begins with a free property visit. During the visit you can tell us in person what you would like us to do and we can gather enough information to create a fixed-price quote for the entire clearance. Next, we’ll email the quote to you. Included with the quote is a service outline based on your instructions, detailing every step of the clearance.
1. Free quote and service outline
Brisbane Estate Clearance can make an offer to buy items from the estate, if requested. When we buy items, the buying price is offset against the bill for the clearance. This option suits people who want to minimise the cost of the clearance or have the clearance finalised as quickly as possible. Our goal is to provide you with options that best suit your needs, whether it’s a comprehensive clearance with all items sent to auction or a smaller estate with a buying offer included.
2. Brisbane Estate Clearance buying offer
We start every clearance by carefully sorting all of the property contents, ensuring no detail is overlooked. We remove all movable items from all areas of the property. Items are delivered to different addresses, sold, donated or recycled. Most clearances take less than a week to complete. Our experienced team make having a property cleared as stress-free as possible.

We can remove all property contents:
We can remove all items from the home, the garden and any outbuildings, including all furniture, all other household contents and any outdoor items – leaving the property completely clear and tidy. If you’d like anything to remain on the property, we make sure these items are left in place and not included in the clearance.
-
All the property contents are carefully sorted:
Our team sort all items into categories before anything is removed from the property, to ensure that every item goes to the right place. Everything suitable for resale is labelled and set aside, likewise items to be delivered to other addresses, items to be donated to local charities etc.
-
Important items are set aside:
Often while sorting through household contents, we find things such as important documents, money, items with sentimental value or items that you’ve told us were lost somewhere on the property. If we find these items, we will set them aside and contact you.
-
Items are donated to local Brisbane charities and community organisations:
We aim to donate, recycle or reuse as much as possible. We work with multiple charities to ensure that your items are donated to a good cause. Please visit our Charitable Donations page for more information.
-
We arrange the sale of items on your behalf:
If there are items contained in the estate which have a resale value, we can handle the entire sale process on your behalf. We have decades of experience selling antiques, collectables and general household items here in Brisbane. We can confidently identify which items are suitable for selling and the best way to sell them. For most clearances we recommend selling items via one or more of the Brisbane auction houses specialising in house clearance auctions. Occasionally we recommend selling via private sale to a registered buyer for items which may receive a higher return than if sold at auction.
-
We offer a cost saving option for people whose main priority is reducing the upfront cost of the clearance:
Brisbane Estate Clearance can offer to buy items from the estate. We offset the buying price against the total cost of the clearance, helping to lower the bill. If you would like us to make a buying offer, please let us know during the initial quote property visit.
