01House clearance

What is a house clearance in Antwerpen? One crew, one price.

A house clearance is the complete emptying of a property by one crew: every room, the cellar, the attic and the garage. Everything is carried out, sorted for reuse and recycling, and the property is handed back broom-clean, for a price fixed in advance.

You need one when a home in Antwerpen has to be empty by a date: the end of a lease, a sale, a move into care, an inheritance or a departure abroad. Read what it costs on house clearance cost in Antwerpen.

03How it works

How does a house clearance in Antwerpen work?

A clearance takes four steps, from the first photo to the empty property. Everything runs in English, by message or phone, so the price and the arrangements are in writing.

  1. You send photos

    Every room, plus the cellar, the attic, the garage and the garden. Add the address, the floor and whether there is a lift.

  2. You get one fixed price

    Set by the volume, the access and the sorting. No hourly rate, no extra invoice afterwards.

  3. The crew clears it

    On the agreed day, room by room, with a ladder lift where the stairs are too narrow. Sorted while loading.

  4. Broom-clean handover

    Every room empty and swept, ready for the inspection, the buyer, the notary or the contractor.

Plan one week ahead. In Antwerpen the parking ban for the truck is requested online from the city at least 5 working days before the clearance. You request it; we tell you exactly what to fill in.

06Leaving Antwerpen

Leaving Antwerpen? Clear the flat before the move-out inspection

Most of our end-of-lease jobs are for people leaving Belgium. The order that works:

  1. The movers pack and ship what goes along.
  2. We clear everything that stays, cellar box included.
  3. Cleaning, if your lease asks for it.
  4. Move-out inspection, keys back, deposit released.

07Your belongings

What happens to your belongings after a clearance?

Not everything that leaves the house is waste. The contents are sorted into three streams while the truck is loaded. The full story is in what happens to your belongings.

08Questions

House clearance in Antwerpen: frequently asked questions

Is your question not here? Send it with your photos and you get the answer together with the price.

All clearance guides

What does a house clearance in Antwerpen include?

Everything in the property that is not part of the building: furniture, household goods, clothes, books, appliances and papers, in every room, plus the cellar, the attic, the garage and the garden shed. We carry it out, sort it for reuse and recycling, and sweep the floors.

How do I get a price?

Send photos of every room by WhatsApp to 0486 54 00 49, or call the same number. Add the address or district, the floor and whether there is a lift. You receive one fixed price for the whole job; for a very full property we come and look first.

Who requests the parking ban for the truck?

You do, online at the city of Antwerpen, at least 5 working days ahead. We give you the dates and the length of the space. The procedure and the city fee are in the parking ban guide.

I am leaving Belgium. Can you clear my rented flat?

Yes. We clear what you are not shipping, between the movers and the move-out inspection. See end-of-lease clearance.

Do you buy furniture or antiques?

No. We are a clearance company, not a dealer. Sell what you want to sell first; we clear the rest for a fixed price.

Can you collect a single sofa or wardrobe?

No. We carry out complete clearances: a home, a flat, an estate, an office, or at least a full cellar, attic or garage. A single item only comes along as part of such a job.

Is the property cleaned afterwards?

It is handed back broom-clean: every room empty and the floors swept. Deep cleaning is not part of a clearance; see what broom-clean means.
