Sudbury House Clearance and property clearance services are provided by Essex House Clearances, a small owner-managed business based near Halstead, covering Sudbury and the Suffolk border areas, plus most parts of Essex including towns like Colchester, Chelmsford, Braintree, Brentwood, Braintree and so on.

Despite covering a wide area, we are a small owner-operated business serving the local community, small enough to provide our clients with the sort of friendly, personal and flexible service you expect of a local business. It goes without saying that we are professional and efficient at all times, but our customers’ needs are always what come first. Sudbury and Essex House Clearances are of course fully licenced under UK Environmental legislation – click here for our licence details.

Property clearances are rarely happy occasions and we do our best to be as discreet and efficient as possible, particularly when we’re aware of the circumstances. Many property clearances are needed after the death of a family member and so our staff are very aware of the need for compassion and tact.

Although much of our property clearance bookings around Sudbury are for private homeowners and come through personal recommendations, we also provide clearance services for local property or estate agents, either on a one-off or regular basis.

Ethical Recycling

Firstly, we don’t like throwing anything away, and everything we clear is recycled one way or another. We are fully licenced waste carriers and brokers, and as such nothing we clear is taken to local rubbish tips or landfills. Anything we clear that can’t be rehomed, donated or sold is taken instead to a commercial recycling plant where it is stripped down to component levels to ensure little is wasted.

During a typical property clearance if we find anything which can be reused or recycled, we try to find it a new home, usually to deserving local causes and charities where possible. Good quality furniture and a wide range of smaller items will typically be donated to local charity or welfare groups where possible. In the case of higher value items with genuine resale values, we are happy to discuss buying them from you to reduce your clearance costs, or assist with their sale on your behalf, particularly in the case of probate clearances. Any items that need to be disposed of are dealt with ethically in accordance with the terms of our waste carrier’s licence.
