End of tenancy clearance

End of tenancy clearance across Worthing and Sussex

We empty rented homes and commercial units between tenancies, quickly and tidily, so cleaning, repairs and the next let can go ahead on time.

The gap between one tenancy and the next is usually short, and every day a property sits empty costs money. When a tenant leaves furniture, bags and rubbish behind, or a landlord wants to clear out tired furniture before re-letting, the clearance needs to happen quickly so that cleaners, contractors and inventory clerks can get in.

We work with landlords, letting agents, property managers and outgoing tenants to clear rental properties across Sussex. We collect keys from agents, work to tight check-out dates, and send photos of the empty property when we have finished, so you do not need to be there.

Can't speak highly enough of this service. They were speedy, efficient and polite. Above all they were very reasonably priced. Thankyou so much guys I will be happy to recommend you to friends and neighbours.

The detail

For landlords and letting agents

We understand the turnaround pressure. Give us the check-out date, the access arrangements and the scope, and we will schedule the clearance so that the property is empty in time for the cleaners. We can work directly with your agent or property manager and supply photos and a waste transfer note for your records.

If a former tenant has left belongings behind, make sure the correct process for dealing with uncollected goods has been followed before anything is removed. Once you confirm the items can go, we will clear them.

For tenants protecting their deposit

Leaving furniture or rubbish behind is one of the most common reasons for deductions from a tenancy deposit. If you are moving out and cannot take everything with you, we can clear the unwanted items before the inventory check so that the property is returned in the condition your tenancy agreement requires.

We can also clear items from the garden, shed or loft that are easy to forget until the last minute.

Student lets and HMOs

Student houses and houses in multiple occupation often end each tenancy with broken furniture, mattresses, kitchen waste and bags of rubbish across several rooms. Summer changeover is our busiest time for these clearances, so it pays to book early.

We can clear the whole property in one visit and leave it ready for the cleaners and maintenance team.

How it works

Four simple steps from first message to a clear space.

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

Every job is quoted individually from photos. These are the factors that make the difference:

Volume of items

From a few bags to a full house.

Item types

Mattresses, sofas and fridges have higher disposal costs.

Access

Stairs and parking restrictions.

Turnaround

Very short notice may affect scheduling.

Outdoor areas

Gardens, sheds and garages add volume.

How to prepare

  • Confirm the check-out date and when the property must be empty.
  • Arrange keys and access through your agent if you cannot be there.
  • Confirm that any belongings left by a former tenant can be removed.
  • Tell us about stairs, parking and any building rules.
  • List anything that belongs to the landlord and is staying.
  • Ask for photos and a waste transfer note if you need them for your records.

Responsible disposal

Where your waste goes

Everything we remove from rental properties is sorted for reuse, recycling or disposal at licensed facilities. Sofas and armchairs are handled under the POPs rules, and white goods go for WEEE recycling.

Whoever takes your waste, check they are a registered waste carrier. Householders have a legal duty of care, and if waste you paid someone to remove is fly-tipped it can be traced back to you. We are licensed and insured, take every load to authorised facilities, and are always happy to show our credentials.

Rebecca BarberGoogle review

Really good service. Competitive price and left the site clear. I liked the good communication e.g. pictures of the finished job as I couldn't be at home as I was working. Great job and I would use them again.

A Star customerCustomer review

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.

A Star customerCustomer review

Super helpful! I sent a message on WhatsApp on the weekend and got a reply the same day with a price. They came and collected 2 days later and all was left clean and tidy. Really efficient. Would highly recommend.
