Estate & probate clearance
Estate and probate clearance in Brussels
Clearing a family home after a bereavement or a move into care is never just a removal. We work quietly and at your pace, set aside documents, photographs and anything of value, and leave the house clean for the notary or the sale.
Emptying the home of someone who has died, or who is moving into care, is one of the harder jobs a family faces — practically and emotionally. There is a house full of a life to sort, papers the notary needs, keepsakes that matter, and a deadline set by a sale or a lease. We take on the heavy, exhausting part with care and discretion, so you can focus on the decisions only you can make.
At your pace, with respect
There is no rush and no production line. We can clear the whole house in a day, or work room by room over several visits while the family decides what to keep. As we go, we set aside documents, photographs, letters, jewellery and anything that looks personal or valuable, and hand it to you — nothing of that kind is ever thrown away. If it helps, we coordinate directly with the notary, the executor or the estate agent.
What happens to the belongings
Most of a home can be given a second life rather than discarded. Usable furniture and household goods go to reuse charities such as the Kringwinkel and Les Petits Riens; appliances go to registered WEEE recycling; textiles, books, wood, metal and glass are separated for recycling. Only what genuinely cannot be reused or recycled goes to general waste. Families often find comfort in knowing things were passed on, not dumped. See what we take.
A clear, fixed price
From the photos or a short walkthrough video you send, we give a single fixed price covering the crew, the lifting, the transport and all the recycling, so there is no uncertainty at a difficult time. We leave the property swept and presentable for the notary, the agent or the next occupant. It is a full house clearance carried out with particular sensitivity.
For a step-by-step walkthrough, read our guide on how to empty a house after a death. We carry out estate clearances across the region, from Uccle and Woluwe-Saint-Pierre to Waterloo and Tervuren. Reach out whenever you are ready; there is no pressure to book.
Estate clearance: common questions
Can you work around the notary and the sale?
Yes. We coordinate with the notary, executor or estate agent and time the clearance around the settlement and the sale, entirely at your pace.
Will you look out for documents and valuables?
Always. We set aside papers, photographs, jewellery and anything that looks personal or valuable and hand it to the family. Nothing of that kind is discarded.
Do we need to sort everything before you come?
No. Take what you want to keep, and leave the rest to us. We can also work room by room over several visits if you prefer to decide as we go.
