💡 FAQ – House Clearance Costs
Q1: How do you calculate the cost of a house clearance?
We use a tier system based on how furnished the property is (fully furnished, semi-furnished, or lightly furnished/empty), and then we adjust it depending on whether it’s a 1-bed, 2-bed, 3-bed, or 4-bed home. This way, customers know exactly what to expect—no surprises.
Q2: What’s the typical cost of clearing a 1-bed flat?
For a semi-furnished 1-bed flat (without large appliances like a fridge), the price is usually between £450 – £540. Fully furnished properties may cost more depending on the volume of furniture and waste to be cleared.
Q3: What about larger homes, like 3 or 4 bedrooms?
• A 3-bed semi-furnished home will usually cost more than a 1-bed, often ranging from £750 – £1,000, depending on furniture and access.
• A 4-bed fully furnished home may range from £1,200 upwards, since these typically involve larger volumes of furniture, white goods, and waste.
Q4: Do you offer free quotes before the job?
Yes—we always provide a free, no-obligation quote before starting. This ensures our customers know exactly what the job will cost, with no hidden extras.
Q5: Why does the price vary within the same tier?
A few things can affect the price:
• Access to the property (flats without lifts may require more labour).
• Bulky items like fridges, mattresses, or wardrobes.
• Recycling and disposal costs, which vary by weight and material.
Q6: Is it cheaper to hire a skip instead?
Not always. With a skip, you still do all the heavy lifting yourself and need space for it outside. With MM Rubbish Clearance, the labour is included—we do the lifting, loading, and disposal. Plus, we leave the property clean and tidy.
Q7: What’s included in your price?
Our price includes:
• All labour and loading.
• Disposal and recycling costs.
• Transport in our clean, professional vans.
• A tidy-up sweep afterwards.
