Clearing a parent's or relative's house is hard enough without also worrying about the truck. Gilroy homes often hold decades of belongings: a garage full of tools, a hall closet of linens, a storage shed out on a Hecker Pass lot. Families are frequently managing it from out of town, working around a funeral, probate or a deadline set by an executor.
We work at your pace. You or your executor walk the rooms, mark what stays, what goes to family and what can be donated, and we haul the rest. Nothing is thrown out unless you have released it. Text photos of the house for a free quote with upfront pricing.

Donation, recycling and what is left
Good furniture, kitchenware and clothing do not have to end up in a landfill. Goodwill Gilroy on First St. takes housewares and small furniture, Habitat for Humanity ReStore San Jose takes furniture and appliances and offers pickup requests online, and The Salvation Army lists a donation center in Gilroy. Always check what each one accepts first. We are not affiliated with them. See the Gilroy donation guide.
Electronics can go to Best Buy in Gilroy or the county household hazardous waste program, which also takes paint and chemicals at 408.299.7300. We cannot haul hazardous materials. Everything else we take to the right facility.

Estate Cleanouts: questions Gilroy customers ask
Can you work with an executor who lives out of town?
Yes. Photos and phone calls work. The executor tells us what may be removed and we confirm by text before we start.
Do I have to sort everything before you arrive?
No. Mark the things you want to keep. We can help sort the rest by your keep, donate and haul instructions.
What about valuables we might not have found yet?
Tell us to set aside papers, jewelry and photos. If we find something that looks personal, we set it aside for you.
Can you clear an entire house in one visit?
It depends on the size of the home and what is in it. Send photos and we will say whether it is one trip or more.
Will you donate usable items?
We donate what charities will accept and recycle what we can. Not every item is accepted.
Do you coordinate with an estate sale company?
We can work around one. Clear the sale items first and call us for what remains.
