House clearance Worthing
Local house clearance in Worthing
Complete or partial clearances of houses and flats, carried out carefully and respectfully, with everything recycled, reused or disposed of properly.
House and flat clearances in Worthing are a big part of our work. We are based in Worthing, so most jobs in the borough are a few minutes from the yard. We clear homes across Worthing town centre, Broadwater, Tarring, West Tarring and Goring-by-Sea, from single rooms to entire properties, working with families, executors, landlords and agents.
Every clearance in Worthing is handled carefully and respectfully. We set aside anything that needs to be kept, recycle and reuse where we can, and leave the property swept and ready for the next stage, whether that is a sale, a new tenancy or a family move.
Just used A Star Waste Management and the service was fantastic. The chap was extremely polite and efficient and I would certainly use this company again and recommend them whenever I can.
A Star customer, Customer review
We clear whole properties or just the parts you need: a single room, the loft, the garage or everything except the items going to the new home. We work at your pace, set aside anything that needs to be kept or checked, and handle belongings respectfully. Families often tell us that the hardest part was picking up the phone, and that the clearance itself was far easier than they expected.

Local knowledge
House clearance in Worthing: what we know locally
Every town has its own quirks. These are the things that shape house clearance jobs in Worthing.
Homes in Worthing
Worthing's housing changes every mile or so. The streets around the town centre and Heene are dense Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many split into flats. Goring, Durrington and Salvington are dominated by 1930s semis and post-war bungalows with long rear gardens, while Offington, Charmandean and Findon Valley have larger detached homes. Knowing the property type lets us quote accurately from photos, because the access from a Heene conversion is a different job to a drive-up bungalow in Goring.
Part of the community
Many Worthing clearances come about because of a change in someone's life: a parent moving into care, a downsize from a family home to a flat, or a house being sold after a bereavement. We are used to working alongside families, estate agents and solicitors, and we will always ask what needs to be kept before anything goes into the van.
Flats and apartments
Worthing has a large number of purpose-built blocks along Marine Parade and West Parade, retirement developments across the borough, and converted flats above shops in the town centre. Clearing these usually means lifts that are too small for a sofa, communal stairwells that must be kept clear, and managing agents who want the work done quietly and within set hours. We plan for all of that before we arrive.
Parking and access
Parking is the thing that most often slows a Worthing clearance. Much of the town centre and the streets near the seafront sit inside controlled parking zones with resident permit bays, and many terraces have no off-street space at all. We park as close as the rules allow, keep carry distances short, and if your road is permit-only we will talk through the best loading spot when we quote.

Specialist house & flat clearance services in Worthing
As part of our house & flat clearance service in Worthing, we also provide:
House clearance
A house clearance means emptying a home of furniture, belongings and rubbish, either completely or leaving only what is staying. It is usually needed when a property is being sold, let, renovated or handed back, or when a family is dealing with a move into care or a bereavement.
Flat clearances are all about access. Stairs, small lifts, tight landings, communal hallways and parking restrictions all affect how long a job takes and how many people it needs. We plan for them in advance so the clearance runs smoothly and the building is left as we found it.
Garages are where things go to be forgotten. Old furniture, boxes from the last house move, bikes, tools, broken appliances, paint tins, garden equipment and car parts all end up piled to the roof until the car has not been inside for years.
Lofts are hard to clear yourself. The hatch is small, the ladder is steep, the space is often unboarded, and years of boxes, suitcases, Christmas decorations and old furniture have to be passed down one item at a time. We do it safely and quickly.
Clearing the home of someone who has died is one of the most difficult things a family has to do. There are memories in every drawer, decisions to make about every item, and often a sale or tenancy deadline adding pressure. We aim to take the physical work off your hands while treating the home and its contents with respect.
Clearing the home of someone who has died is one of the hardest jobs a family faces. We work with families and executors to do it sensitively. Before we start, we agree what should be kept, donated or checked, and we keep an eye out for paperwork, photographs and personal items as we go, setting them aside rather than loading them.
If the property is being sold, we can work around estate agents and solicitors, and clear it in time for viewings or completion. If you are dealing with the estate from a distance, we can arrange access with a key holder and send photos of the finished property.
Downsizing and moving into care
When someone moves from a family home into a smaller property or a care home, only a fraction of their belongings go with them. We can clear the rest before or after the move, working around removal firms and family members. We are patient and friendly, and we will never rush an older customer into decisions they are not ready to make.
Good-quality furniture and household items can often be reused. Where possible we set these aside for reuse rather than sending them for disposal.
How house clearance in Worthing works
We are based in Worthing, so most jobs in the borough are a few minutes from the yard. Here is how a typical house clearance job in Worthing works:
1
Send us photos
WhatsApp a few pictures of the waste and the route to the road, or call 01903 962 492. Tell us your postcode and when suits you.
2
Get a clear price
We reply with a fixed quote based on what we can see. No hidden extras, no pressure, and no obligation to book.
3
We load and sweep
Our team arrives on the agreed day, carries everything out, loads the van and sweeps up behind us.
4
Responsible disposal
Waste goes to licensed facilities to be sorted and recycled where possible. Businesses get a waste transfer note.
What affects the price of house clearance in Worthing
We quote every job individually from photos, so you know the cost before we arrive. The main factors are:
Size of the property
The number of rooms and how full they are.
Contents
Furniture, electricals and sofas have different disposal costs.
Access
Flats with stairs and long carries take longer than a bungalow with a drive.
Outbuildings
Lofts, garages, sheds and gardens add to the volume.
Timescale
We will always try to meet your deadline.
How to prepare
Decide what is staying, going to family or being donated, and label it clearly.
Remove valuables, jewellery, cash, keys and important documents.
Check drawers, pockets, books and boxes for personal papers and photographs.
Let us know if the property has been sold or let and when it needs to be empty.
Tell us about access: stairs, lifts, parking and any building rules.
Arrange keys with a neighbour, agent or solicitor if you cannot be there.
Responsible disposal
Where your Worthing waste goes
House clearance waste is sorted into reusable items, recyclable materials and general waste. Reusable furniture and household items are set aside where possible, recyclable materials go to the appropriate facilities, and the rest is taken to licensed waste transfer stations. Upholstered seating is kept separate for specialist disposal.
Adur & Worthing Councils run a chargeable bulky waste collection and a paid garden waste bin service, and West Sussex County Council runs the household recycling centres. Those are good options for the odd item, but they come with waiting times, item limits and rules on vans and DIY waste. We are the alternative when you want everything gone in one visit, loaded for you, on a day that suits you.

Saw one of there trucks driving through Worthing, called the number today. Sent a picture of what we needed clear. They came back straight away with a price and were able to pick it all up on the same day. Really friendly team and great service. Will definitely be using this company again.

Bit of a mix up with timings but once arrived the boys were quick, efficient and very thorough in their work. There was an awful lot of stuff in our garage that was not being used and we needed it clearing for selling our house.

Yes. We work with families, executors and solicitors in Worthing, setting aside documents and personal items and clearing the property in time for sale or handover.
How quickly can you clear a house in Worthing?
We can often book a Worthing house clearance within a week, sooner when the diary allows. Most properties are cleared in a single day.
Can you clear a flat in Worthing while I am away?
Yes. We can collect keys from an agent or neighbour, clear the flat, and send you photos of the finished job.
How quickly can you collect rubbish in Worthing?
Worthing is our home patch, so it is where we are most likely to fit in short-notice work. Send photos on WhatsApp or call 01903 962 492 and we will give you the earliest slot we have. Next-day collections are often possible, but it depends on the diary that week.

How long does a house clearance take?
Most houses can be cleared in a day, depending on size and contents. Larger or very full properties may take two days. We will give you a realistic timescale when we quote.
Do I need to be there during the clearance?
No. Many clearances are done while the family is elsewhere. We can arrange access through a key holder, agent or solicitor and send you photos when we have finished.
Can you clear a property for probate?
Yes. We regularly work with families and executors, setting aside paperwork and personal items and clearing the property in time for sale or handover.
