A few years ago, the UK House Clearance Association put together a simple minimum costing guide for you the customer to understand the costs involved for a reputable clearance company to clear an average sized property. We have since updated this to reflect recent changes to staff pay structure and the rising commercial costs of clearance. Please be advised that every house is different, e.g including shed, garage and loft contents may affect the price. House Clearance Heroes will always endeavour to offer the most cost effective service.
