Common Mistakes When Appointing A House Clearance Company

October 15, 2011 by Avery Associates

There are many London house clearance firms to choose from, but how do you choose the most suitable one for you? It’s very easy to choose the wrong one and this could make the experience a lot worse. Here are three of the most common mistakes which you should try to avoid when it comes to choosing a house clearance company.

1. Not Choosing a Company with Experience

This is the biggest mistake of all. House clearance is a specialist field and it’s not something that just anyone can do. It takes a firm with plenty of experience to get the job done right, and this is especially true for jobs involving valuable objects, large properties and compulsive hoarding where extra skills are required. If you want your property and belongings to be looked after properly during the clearance then the right level of experience is a must.

2. Paying for the Cheapest Service You can Find

This is one of the worst things that you can do. By basing your decision on price alone there is no guarantee that the company you use is going to provide you with the best experience.

There are many factors involved in house clearances, including the type of job, the size of the property, any special circumstances, the professionalism of the clearance workers, the environmental credentials which they have and their level of experience. By only choosing the companies which offer the cheapest service you won’t be doing yourself any favours.

3. Failing to Check Testimonials

The easiest way to see if a house clearance firm is worth using is to check the quality of their testimonials. An established firm with a good reputation will have numerous testimonials from satisfied customers to share with you, and this will give you a clear picture of whether it is a company you can trust or not.

Avoid these Mistakes When Choosing Your House Clearance Specialist

Don’t make the above mistakes when looking for a company for your house clearance. Consumers should always try to find the best clearance firm for the job, so look for a company with experience, which can offer a fair price for the service and which comes with good testimonials.

Our House Clearance Services

We provide a full house clearance and property management solution:

  • We clear hoarded houses, regardless how big or how cluttered
  • We clear all types and sizes of property, irrespective of location, or access is restricted or where parking is difficult or not available.

As well normal house clearances we specialise in clutter clearance and we can clear a hoarded house which may contain years of accumulated possessions, or which have abnormal amounts of general household items, sometimes as a result of compulsive hoarding syndrome.

Equally we can help to clear a property where the occupants were previously unwell and unable to care for themselves or their property which sometimes results in insanitary, dangerous or just plain unpleasant conditions.
