When an estate includes a house, a condo or a storage unit, someone has to empty it. We clear it with care, keep you updated and send before-and-after photos, even if you're handling it from out of state.
Settling an estate comes with a long list, and clearing out the property is often one of the biggest jobs on it. That's where our junk removal for estate attorneys and executors comes in. Whether you're the attorney handling the probate or the family member named as executor, we make that part simple. We clear houses, condos, apartments and storage units across Chicago and the suburbs, and we're glad to work directly with you, the family, the realtor or the building manager. We're a big company with 9 trucks, but we're still local and flexible, and we want your experience, and the family's, to be a great one.
Live out of town? That's no problem! With a lockbox code, a key left with a neighbor or a building contact, the crew walks the property and will call or text you one firm price before anything moves. If the price works for you, they clear it right then, and you get an emailed receipt with before-and-after photos, which is handy for the estate's records. We take cash, check or credit card, so you can pay by card over the phone, or we can invoice the estate directly.
Families can mark anything they want to keep, and if you're looking for something in particular, tell us and the crew will do their best to find it. If furniture and household goods are clean and in good shape, we'll try to find them a new home. Appliances and electronics go to a local recycler that recycles them responsibly, and everything else goes to one of our recycling partners. We don't buy items or run estate sales, so if there's an estate sale planned, we come in after it to clear what's left.
Call or text (312) 800-1940 with the address and how we can get in.
The crew walks the property and gives you one firm price before anything moves. If you can't be there, they'll call or text you the price before they start. It's a free estimate, no obligation.
Let us know what the family is keeping, and tell us anything you're hoping to find. The crew works around marked items and does their best to find what you've asked them to look for.
If the price works for you, the crew clears the property right then, cleans up and emails a receipt with before-and-after photos to you or to the estate.
Huntley
This Huntley homeowner couldn't be there in person, so she left us a lockbox code and asked for one thing: before and after photos so she'd have a record of the work. The crew cleared the house and the garage, then took the photos she asked for.
Read the case study →Hickory Hills
This Hickory Hills family wanted their mom's home cleared as soon as possible so they could put it on the market. The crew priced it at the door and cleared every room the same day.
Read the case study →North Center
We were asked to clear an entire building in North Center for the estate's administrator. Years of belongings filled the front rooms, the dining room and the bedrooms, with paperwork, books and furniture stacked throughout. Access was by lockbox, so the administrator didn't need to meet us, and the crew worked room by room until the floors were showing again.
Read the case study →No! With a lockbox, a key or a building contact, the crew will call or text you the price before anything moves and email a receipt with before-and-after photos when they're done. We take cash, check or credit card (a card over the phone works great from out of town), or we can invoice the estate.
Yes. We're happy to coordinate access and timing with whoever is handling the property, and send the invoice to whoever needs it.
Yes. The crew emails a receipt with before-and-after photos, which is handy for the estate's records.
Yes, if you ask. Tell us what you're looking for before we start, and the crew will do their best to find it, though we can't promise it'll turn up. For one family home in Franklin Park, the plan started with an hour of careful sorting for a few photo albums and a violin before anything went on the truck.
If it's clean and in good shape, we'll try to find it a new home. Appliances and electronics go to a local recycler that recycles them responsibly, and everything else goes to one of our recycling partners.
It depends on how much is there. We bring the crews and trucks the job needs, and same-day or next-day is often available, Monday through Saturday.
Start by letting the family take what they want and marking anything that stays. If there's enough of value, an estate sale can come next. Then a full-service junk removal company like ours can clear everything that's left, from the attic to the basement, and you don't have to be there for it. We got you covered!
We'd be glad to take care of the property anywhere in Chicago and the suburbs, whether you're across town or across the country. Book a free onsite estimate online, or call or text us at (312) 800-1940. Let's do it!
