House clearance from SW England to the NE

2 replies

Long story short, we moved temporarily to the ne of england during one of the lockdown lifts and have been renting the house we own in the sw to a family member. The house in sw therefore still contains a lot of our personal belongings and furniture.

We didn't expect to love it in the ne so much. We now want to sell the place in the sw and buy up here.

I'm guessing that to sell, we would first need to clear the place in the south of all our stuff.

We both now work in the ne and have to be in the office some days a week. Neither of us drive.

Is there a service where people will clear your home for you (furniture, stuff in cupboards, everything), and bring it in a van to you on the other side of the country in one piece?

How do people manage things like this? It's something neither of us have ever done before. I feel like I'm also googling all the wrong things because I'm just coming up with dead ends.

Surely a removal company would do it, but do you really no t want to do the decluttering yourself first?

Yes, they are called Removal Companies. They will pack your stuff and then transport it to wherever you want.

House clearance companies on the other hand are firms that will clear your house of all your possessions for charity, resale or waste disposal.

Google Removals in the SW area to get quotes.
