What is an Estate Cleanout?
An estate cleanout is a professional service that involves the thorough removal and responsible disposal of personal belongings, furniture, appliances, and other household items from a property, often after a significant life event such as the death of a loved one, downsizing, foreclosure, or preparing a home for sale. Estate cleanouts are commonly needed by families, landlords, estate executors, and realtors who require efficient, respectful, and legally compliant property cleanups. A typical estate cleanout includes sorting through possessions, donating usable goods to local Arizona charities, recycling where possible, and disposing of waste in line with Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) regulations.

We work with local donation centers and charities like Goodwill Arizona, Habitat for Humanity, and other local organizations to ensure that salvageable items—like furniture, clothing, and household goods—are donated responsibly instead of going to landfills.
What if I Have Specific Items I Want to Keep?
No problem. During the initial consultation, we identify and set aside any personal belongings or items you wish to keep—such as family heirlooms, legal documents, or photographs. In emotionally sensitive cases like cleaning out a deceased parent’s home, our team works with empathy and care, allowing you time and space to make decisions before we proceed with removal.
Are You Able to Remove Hazardous Waste?
Hazardous waste—like chemicals, paints, fuel, batteries, or medical waste—requires special handling. While standard estate cleanout services don’t cover all hazardous materials, we can guide you through Arizona’s disposal regulations and connect you with certified hazardous waste removal services in Maricopa County or surrounding areas to ensure legal and safe disposal.
