House clearance after a bad tenant

So what are your options for house clearance?

1. You can clean up after the tenant yourself

If you don't have any funds left from the tenant or are reluctant to fork out for a house clearance company, then you will need to do the job yourself. This requires a lot of time and effort on your part. The first task is to de-clutter the home of all unwanted items. Gather some boxes and label them: store, recycle and bin and start the long task of clearing what has been left behind. Once this is done, start thinking about how best to dispose of these items. There maybe items that are too good for landfill that you may want to donate or give away. You will then need to dispose of the rest either by hiring skips, which can be costly or trips to your local household waste recycling centre for which you will need transport and it can be very time consuming. Depending on what is left behind you may also need help lifting larger items as well.

2. Use a professional house clearance company

When it comes to house clearance, you might not be keen on doing the job yourself. If so, there are professional companies that can take care of this for you. A professional clearance company will have experienced staff who can take control of the process and make it as stress free as possible. And as they will usually have several employees involved in the house clearance project, it is likely to be completed in a shorter amount of time. They will be able to dispose of all unwanted items in the most appropriate way, whether that is donating to charity, recycling or landfill. Lastly, these companies will have liability insurance which covers any damages to your possessions and property during the process.
