At Windsor Auctions, we’re unique in that we’re not only an auction house, but we also provide a comprehensive house clearance service.

This extends to full property clearances and partial clearances and to kick off the process, all you have to do is give us a call or drop us an email and we’ll schedule a consultation with our seasoned auctioneer, Harry Ballin.

He will visit the house you want cleared, identify items that are suitable for auction and provide a full run through of how the house clearance service works.

Our priority is to reduce waste, so anything that doesn’t fit the auction bill will be given to charity,in some cases we may have to take items down to the local recycling centre, every effort is to made to keep landfill to a minimum.

With items that are auctioned off and successfully sold, the proceeds will be returned to the client therefore  offsetting the cost of the house clearance.

In the past, there have been occasions where we’ve found unexpected treasures in people’s homes, for example, Chinese hardwood screens that sold for £11,000 or a decorative Buddha statue that went for £10,200, so it’s worth letting us come and take a look as your stuff might be worth more than you think.

As for items that aren’t sold, they will be placed in another auction at a reduced price and if they don’t sell once again then the client has the option to either take back the item or we will donate it to charity on their behalf.

Our pricing model is adaptable. If the items sold at auction are not enough to cover the house clearance costs then the price depends on how many people are needed to clear the house and how long it takes.

We also understand the complexities of waiting for probate money and so we work with solicitors to ensure a smooth process for our clients.

Clearances are scheduled within weeks of when clients first contact us, as we aim for a quick turnaround.

Our efficient team work Monday to Friday, starting at 9am and they’ll usually be out of the house by 3pm each day, with most clearances taking one or two days and we can accommodate weekend clearances under some circumstances.

We understand that house clearances often involve sensitive circumstances, such as the passing of a loved one and so we take a thoughtful and considerate approach to handling the belongings of our clients.

And we will try to be as accommodating as possible, for example if a client lives abroad, they don’t need to be there during the house clearance and we can pick up the keys from a local estate agent and we always leave the property in a good condition.

Using our service is a great way to potentially make some money while getting a house cleared quickly, efficiently and without hassle.

So, if you or anyone you know are looking for a house clearance service, get in touch and we would be happy to help.
