One team for a Nottingham estate
We clear homes for executors, solicitors, deputies and families who need a property in Nottingham emptied properly and don’t want to manage five different contractors to do it.
We should be upfront: we’re based in Weston-super-Mare, not Nottingham. It’s around 160 miles, so about two and three-quarter hours up the M5, M42 and M1. We take on probate and estate clearances anywhere in England and Wales, and the distance is handled in how we plan. We quote from photos or a video walk-through, take the keys by tracked post or collect them from the solicitor or agent, and clear the house in as few days as we can. You get photos while we work, and the keys and anything we’ve set aside come back to you at the end.
Nottingham streets and the homes on them
Hilly terraces. Sherwood, Carrington, Mapperley, Sneinton and Forest Fields have long Victorian terraces, some on steep streets where the carry to the van needs planning. Lenton and Radford have plenty of terraces too, many of them student lets.
The Park and older villas. The Park, next to the castle, is a private estate of large Victorian houses with its own rules on access and parking. Mapperley Park and parts of Sherwood also have big older houses with cellars and attics.
Council-built estates. Clifton, Bestwood, Bulwell, Aspley and Bilborough have large areas of semis, terraces and flats, usually with front and back gardens.
Suburbs outside the city boundary. West Bridgford, Beeston, Arnold, Carlton and Hucknall have a lot of semis and bungalows, often with a garage and loft to clear as well.
Trams, permits and loading
Parking near the house shapes the day more than anything. Some Nottingham streets have residents’ parking, and where the tram runs along the street, stopping is restricted. Send us a photo of the street outside, tell us if a visitor permit is needed, and we’ll plan the loading before we book. For flats, let us know the floor and whether there’s a lift. All of it goes into the quote.
Before anything leaves the house
Every drawer, box, pocket and cupboard is looked through. We set aside papers, photographs, jewellery, cash and personal things, and we keep a look out for anything specific the family needs, such as a will, pension papers or a particular piece of jewellery. Nothing personal goes without you knowing.
- Inventories and photographs on request
- Reuse and recycling arranged near the property, not driven back to Somerset
- A Duty of Care waste transfer note on request
- Contact with an independent valuer if you think something may be worth having valued
Read more on our probate clearance page, or see clearing a house before probate if the grant is still on its way. We don’t give legal or tax advice; for that, speak to the estate’s solicitor.
Solicitors, agents and tenancy deadlines
Professionals can instruct us by email. Give us the address, the key holder, any deadline and your reference, and we’ll confirm the instructions in writing and invoice the firm or the estate with your reference. More on our page for solicitors and executors.
If the home was rented from the council or a housing association, there will usually be a date it must be handed back empty. Tell us when you get in touch and we’ll plan to meet it. For a house being sold, we’ll leave anything included in the sale and leave the rooms swept for the agent’s photographs.
Nottingham questions
Is there a separate charge for coming to Nottingham?
No. Travel is included in the fixed quote, so the price you agree is the price on the invoice.
Do you cover West Bridgford, Beeston and the rest of Nottinghamshire?
Yes. For probate and estate clearances we cover anywhere in England and Wales, including Mansfield, Newark and the towns around the city.
The property is in The Park estate. Is that a problem?
No. Let us know, and tell us any access or parking arrangements the estate has, so we can plan the van and the timing.
Can you take on a house that’s been hoarded?
Yes. It takes longer and we search it carefully, but it’s work we do. See hoarder clearance.
