Step-by-Step Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions

• Step 1: Assess the Property

  • Begin by evaluating the property to determine what items need to be removed. Take inventory of large furniture, appliances, and any other belongings. Document the condition of each item and whether it will be discarded, donated, or kept.

• Step 2: Sort Through Items

  • Sort the items into categories: keep, donate, recycle, and trash. This will help streamline the emptying process and ensure that valuable items are not discarded inadvertently. Label boxes clearly to avoid confusion later.

• Step 3: Schedule the Service

  • Contact a professional house emptying service to schedule a time for them to come and help with the removal of the items. Make sure to provide them with details on the volume of items and any special considerations (e.g., stairs, narrow hallways).

• Materials:

  • Boxes (for sorting and packing)

Best Practices

• Declutter Regularly
