Services
House Clearance
We provide comprehensive house clearance services for estates, families, and landlords. Our team handles complete property emptying, including furniture removal, loft and garage clearance, and post-tenancy clean-up. Items in good condition are either resold or donated to local charities, while remaining materials are responsibly disposed of at licensed facilities. This service helps clients efficiently vacate properties while minimising environmental impact through maximum reuse.
Eco-Friendly Disposal
Our licensed waste management service prioritises recycling and responsible disposal. We segregate materials to maximise reuse, donating usable items to charity shops and recycling 80% of collected waste. Non-recyclable materials are disposed of at commercial facilities meeting Environment Agency standards. This approach reduces landfill usage while providing clients with cost-effective disposal solutions that align with environmental regulations and sustainability goals.
Charity Donations
We facilitate charitable giving by donating suitable items to local causes. Furniture, books, and household goods are delivered to organisations like the Salvation Army and Sue Ryder shops. This service helps clients clear properties while supporting community initiatives and providing affordable goods to those in need. We can accommodate specific charity preferences when branches exist within Peterborough.
Free Valuation
We offer complimentary property assessments to determine clearance costs or potential payments. Our valuation considers resale value of furniture and appliances against disposal costs, providing transparent pricing options. Clients receive detailed breakdowns of potential earnings from resalable items versus clearance fees, with quotes valid for 90 days to allow decision-making flexibility.
Licensed Waste Carriage
As Environment Agency licensed carriers (CBDU 66437), we ensure legal compliance for all waste transportation. Our service includes proper documentation and segregation of materials, meeting regulatory requirements for electrical goods, hazardous materials, and general waste. This guarantees clients avoid legal liabilities associated with improper waste disposal while maintaining environmental standards.

I had a quote for 55 to remove 3+2+1 seater sofa, but when they came to collect they demanded another 35, my wife had to pay or they leave without collection. When I called the office to check, Val was very helpful and apologised, promptly refunded 35 as there was a mix up, that we were charged by mistake. Very good customer service.

Recently faced with the difficult task of clearing out a relatives house after a bereavement I chose Peterborough House Clearance. They were professional and sympathetic throughout and made light work of an otherwise difficult job. I would recommend them to others in need of such a service.
