One flat price by the trailer load. A full trailer holds about 12 cubic yards and is $519. Text photos of each floor and the number comes back in writing before we start.

|---|---|---|
| 1 full load | $519 | A garage and a basement |
| 2 full loads | $1,038 | A 3-bedroom house, low end |
| 3 full loads | $1,557 | A 3-bedroom house, high end |
| 4 full loads | $2,076 | A large single-family house |
How it goes
- Text photos of each floor. That is the walk-through.
- The family sets aside keepsakes, papers and valuables first. We take only what you point to.
- One flat quote by the load. You see the number before we come.
- Good pieces go to donation first, metal and electronics are recycled, the rest is hauled.
- The house is left broom-clean for the realtor, the estate sale or the listing photos.
Selling the house or holding an estate sale
Tell us your listing or sale date when you text and we work back from it. We coordinate with the realtor or attorney on timing and access.
What we do not do
Biohazard cleanups are specialist jobs. For heavily packed homes, see [hoarder cleanouts](/hoarder-cleanout). Text photos and we will tell you straight whether we are the right crew.
Who can authorize an estate cleanout
In Massachusetts the person who handles an estate is the personal representative. Their general duties are set out in M.G.L. c. 190B, section 3-703, which says a personal representative is a fiduciary.
Before anything leaves the house, confirm with the estate's attorney or the court that the personal representative has authority, and keep a written list of what is removed or donated. Household chemicals found in the house follow the same rules as any other household hazardous waste: leave them for the town collection, because improper disposal of household hazardous waste can include pouring it down the drain and putting it out with the regular trash.

Estate cleanouts, answered.
How do you price a full house?
+
By the trailer load. Most single-family cleanouts run 2–4 loads at $519 per full load. You text photos of each floor, we lock the number in writing, and stick to it.
Can you work with our realtor or attorney?
+
Yes. We coordinate timing, provide receipts, and leave the property broom-clean for listing.
How much does it cost to clean out a house after someone dies?
+
It is priced by the trailer load, $519 for a full one, so the size of the house sets the number. Send photos of each floor and we quote the whole clear-out at once.
What is an estate cleanout?
+
Clearing a home after a death or a move to care: the family takes what it wants, then we sort, donate, recycle and haul the rest and leave the house empty.
