Executor and probate estate cleanout

Executor and Probate Estate Cleanouts in Vancouver

As executor, you have enough to manage. We handle the full cleanout on the ground and keep you updated by phone, text and photos, so you can close the estate without flying back. This is part of our full estate cleanout service across Vancouver, built for families carrying the weight from another city.

Is this you?

If this sounds familiar, we can help

You don't have to figure this out alone. Here are the situations we hear about most from executors.

  • You've been named executor and the home needs to be emptied before the sale or transfer.
  • You live out of town and can't be there in person to oversee the cleanout.
  • Beneficiaries are waiting, and you need a clear written quote to share with them.
  • There are valuables and documents that need to be set aside and handled carefully.
  • You're balancing the estate alongside work and family and need one less thing on your plate.

What's included

Everything in your executor cleanout

One team, start to finish. Here's what we take care of on the ground.

  • Sorting every room and outbuilding, start to finish
  • Donation, resale and recycling of usable items
  • Careful removal of what can't be kept
  • A broom clean home ready for sale or handover
  • A donation summary for the estate's records

Your written quote is itemized so you can share it with beneficiaries and the estate lawyer. Rates start at $90 per hour for a single crew member and truck, with disposal at $0.18 per pound and no disposal fee for items we donate or recycle. Resale value can also offset your cost.

Working remotely

Close the estate without leaving home

Most executors we work with manage the estate from another city. Here's how we make that possible.

  • You share keys, a lockbox or a trusted local contact, and we take it from there
  • We send progress photos room by room so you can see the work
  • Documents, valuables and keepsakes are set aside and listed for you
  • Written quotes and summaries you can share with beneficiaries and the estate lawyer
