Clearing out a loved one’s home is one of the hardest jobs a family faces. Having a plan makes it easier. Here is a simple checklist for families in Green Valley, Tucson and the surrounding area.
1. Gather the Important Papers First
Before anything is removed, look for wills, deeds, titles, bank statements, insurance policies and tax records. Check drawers, closets, safes and storage boxes.
2. Decide What Family Members Want to Keep
Give each family member time to walk through the home and set aside photos, heirlooms and keepsakes. Label or tape off anything that stays.
3. Consider an Estate Sale or Donations
Furniture and household goods in good condition can be sold or donated. If you plan an estate sale, schedule the cleanout for after the sale.
4. Plan for the Garage, Shed and Yard
Garages, sheds and patios often hold more than expected. Include them in your plan so nothing is missed.
5. Book the Cleanout
Once the family has what they want, a junk removal team can clear the rest. With Easy Go, you can text photos for upfront pricing, and our team handles all the lifting and hauling. Usable items are donated or recycled whenever possible. Learn more about our estate cleanouts.
