We were asked to help clear the home of an elderly lady who had lived in her home for many years. The lady had 97 years’ worth of belongings in her home which needed sorting, separating, and removing.
As expected, there were huge amounts of household items, too good to be disposed of so we donated a large quantity of furniture and household items to charity and what couldn’t be reused was taken for recycling.
As part of the sorting and separating process, we came across confidential paperwork, family photographs and other personal items. The confidential paperwork was packaged securely and taken to a local company for shredding and the personal items were left aside for the family to retain.
We finished the clearance with a deep clean of the property and the keys were returned to the executor.
