Choose one contact

Choose one authorized person to approve the work and make onsite decisions. Agree on this contact with family, the executor or property manager before arrival.

Include every space

Include the home, attic, garage, sheds, yard and storage areas. A room-by-room list and wide photos help the crew plan time and truck space.

Protect what stays

Set aside documents, photos, medications, jewelry, cash, keepsakes and promised items. Label rooms or groups as keep, donate and remove. Make uncertain items a separate group for the authorized contact to review, so a rushed decision does not become a removal mistake.

Make a room-by-room estate sorting plan

Plan donation and special disposal

Donation depends on condition and local acceptance. Flag paint, chemicals, fuel, biohazards and suspected asbestos before scheduling; they may need specialist disposal.

Work in stages

Larger estates may need sorting, donation and several truckloads. If an estate sale comes first, schedule the removal estimate around the remaining inventory. Agree which rooms are included, what must stay and when cleaners or other contractors can begin.
