Estate Cleanout

Clearing a house after someone has died is not a hauling job with a sad name. It is slower, it involves decisions that are not yours to make, and it goes wrong when somebody rushes it.

Included

  • Whole-house clearing, room by room
  • Hoarded-property work
  • Tenant turnover and rental prep
  • Attics, closets, outbuildings and sheds
  • Swept out when it is done
01Estate CleanoutSCOPE

Most single-family homes take one to two days. That estimate assumes what it usually turns out to assume — that the family still needs to walk through and pull things out, and that the schedule has to bend around that rather than the other way around.

Nothing leaves until you have said it can. Cabinets, closets, drawers, and the backs of shelves get opened and shown rather than emptied on sight, because the things people most regret losing are small and are almost never where anyone expected them.

Clean metal has resale value at the scrap yard. That gets factored into the quote rather than pocketed quietly.

02What the dump won't takeHENDERSON CO.

The county refuses exactly what you need gone.

The Athens Community Collection Station at 500 Aaron Street, Athens is open Saturdays only, 8:30 a.m. – 3:30 p.m., excluding holiday weekends, to City of Athens residents only, and it wants a driver's licence and a current city water bill at the gate.

If you live anywhere else in this county — which is most of it — that station is not available to you at all. Federal Clean Air Act §608 requires refrigerant to be recovered with certified equipment before an appliance is scrapped. That is why the stations turn refrigerators away — it is not arbitrary.

Turned away at the gate

  • Appliances containing Freon
  • Hazardous waste
  • Construction debris
  • Waste oil and fluids
  • Asphalt shingles
  • Tires
  • Dirt
  • Batteries
