A champion team

We decided on Alfred and his team to clear my father’s house after he downsized to a flat. They were brilliant and I can see why they get so many 5 star reviews. A good price, a personable approach with their clients, and an amazing result with a pristine house now ready for sale. In addition, despite me living many hundred of miles away, they kept me up to date with photos and videos via WhatsApp. Well done guys.

House clearance of an uncle Lochwinnoch, Renfrewshire

On the bereavement of an uncle in Lochwinnoch, Renfrewshire who could be described as a hoarder we were at a bit of a loss as where to turn regarding the clearance of his house and we chanced upon House Clearance Scotland whilst browsing online. Based on very favourable reviews we decided to contact them and came into contact with Alfred (the head man and go to person) for the first time. He arranged to meet us at the property in question the next day. He's a very down to earth friendly man and after a 30 minute assessment he was able to provide us with a quote. He was very open to our questions and explained how the household items would be recycled and donated to charities where possible. Due to the extent of clutter he gave us an estimate of 2 weeks for completion of the task. The work started on Wednesday 16th July 2025 and continued into Thursday 17th the first week and then Tues/ Wed the following week i.e only 4 full days to complete the formidable task. We had frequent phone calls, photos and videos with progress. We also met the lads at the heavy end doing the hard yards who were also amazing to the extent of if they came across items of sentimental value or small stashes of cash they would let us know. We could not recommend this company highly enough. Maybe other firms would be less expensive but for peace of mind alone these people are well worth hiring. Absolutely fantastic service and we would definitely use them again if / when the occasion arises.

Absolutely amazing, professional and caring.

I can't speak highly enough of Alfred and his team. From start to finish they were professional and deeply empathetic to our situation. Just knowing my late Mother's house was being cleared out by experts who clearly care about what they are doing was so reassuring. Alfred kept me updated at every step of the way and Damian and his team did an amazing job of clearing the house and leaving it utterly spotless. We're forever grateful for Alfred, Damian and everyone who completed the job. They were very respectful of my Mother's house and belongings and I would Implore anyone who needs this type of work going forward to use them. Absolutely first class service. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.

Amazing company from start to finish!

From start to finish Alfred and his company have been an absolute pleasure to deal with! Recently had re-acquired a property that we had tenants in and the mess they left was like something from tenants from hell! The job that Alfred and his team have done with the place is incredible, you would never have thought they could have made the place back to the condition that its in from what it was! Would completely recommend Alfred to anyone!

I have never met more down to earth and lovely people. The hard work they needed to put in to clear my brother in laws flat was huge and they did it in an amazingly shorter time than estimated.
I can’t thank them enough for all they’ve done and for removing extra things when requested, as well as take the time to box items that were important for keeping.
I am more than grateful to them and this company and will gladly sing their praises and recommend them to anyone!
Will definitely call them again if I have a job needing done!

This team as a whole are absolutely incredible! They took on a huge job of clearing my mother’s home and I’ll be forever grateful for that! They showed true professionalism throughout and probably did more than they should have to ensure it was ready to sell without me having to do anything extra. They understood my situation and showed me true empathy and compassion when they didn’t need to. Thank you again!

Simply Outstanding Service!

I honestly could not recommend Alfred and his amazing company House Clearance Scotland highly enough. One word for them… OUTSTANDING!

Extremely professional from start to finish, very friendly and kept me updated every step of the way. As this was a clearance of my late mums home with many memories for my sister and I, Alfred made what could have been a very distressing time, very smooth and comfortable, with a deep respect and care put into their work at every stage.

I was so impressed, and would recommend them to everyone I know.

Thanks so much Alfred and team for everything!

Readying house for sale

In my opinion the service House Clearance Scotland provides is second to none. I contacted Alfred and had a video call to go through our requirements and show him what the house looked like. Within 10 minutes I had a quote and 3 days later the team arrived to clear and clean house ready for estate agent photos. Communication during the day with Alfred was excellent and a series of videos were sent to me to show me the finished job. I would highly recommend House Clearance Scotland. They made this difficult task easy.

First Floor Flat Clearance East Kilbride

I would highly recommend Alfred and his team. From start to finish everything was handled sensitively and professionally. Excellent communication throughout. Good to know that things would be recycled wherever possible. Turned up on time on day of clearance and updated throughout with pictures and videos. Everything removed from flat, including a piano which was delivered to another address. Left the flat cleaned to a high standard. Thanks Alfred and team.

Great job by House Clearance Scotland

Thank you Alfred for making such a diffficult job so smooth and easy. Your patience, kindness and understanding was so appreciated. The team who worked at my dad’s home were superb with daily photos and videos of the progress. I even smiled when I saw one of the team hoover the loft!!!! Who thought I would smile during this time in my life! Thank you to Alfred and his team who left my parents house (garden and the infamous ‘workshop’) clear, tidy and clean. Without House Clearance - Scotland I don’t know what I would have done.

Bereavement House Clearance

I recently made contact with Alf as I had been struggling to finish clearing my late dad's house. Alf informed me of his companies process were items are sent to be reused and upcycled with nothing going to landfill. Alf is lovely and friendly and he was very patient and understanding given the circumstances. The house was cleared in a day and Alf kept me updated throughout the day. Damien, Dan and Hamish did an absolute Sterling job and the house was left clean and tidy. This was all stress free for me and so I highly recommend the House Clearance Scotland Ltd.

Highly recommend

Recently contacted House Clearance Scotland when we were struggling to make progress in clearing out my parents' house. Alfred was really helpful from the beginning, letting us know what the process is and how everything is recycled or repurposed, rather than just thrown out. We received a quote after having had a look around and set a date.

The guys - Damian, Dan and Bert - put in an absolute shift and cleared out the whole house, loft, garage and garden in 3 days. It would have taken us months, if not longer to do the same job! We were kept updated daily with progress photos/videos and the guys set aside anything that they thought we might want to keep.

Would highly recommend HCS to anyone looking for some help in clearing out a property. They're efficient, tactile and left the place very tidy.

Thank you again to the team!!

Losing my sister in law was hard

Losing my sister in law was hard, we needed her home cleared. I found this company and read all the reviews, wow, I was satisfied this was the right company for us. Alfred is so sympathetic to our bereavement and explained everything to me. He worked with us before the clearance, and communicated at every stage. At the end of her life , my sister in law had dementia and refused assistance , she was not managing. Her hoarding was not her, she was a very house proud hard working lady. Needless to say there was a lot of clearing and Alfred assured us this would be done to selling condition. And it is. I would HIGHLY recommend this company. And we want to thank Alfred and his hard working staff for making our grief easier to handle. Flat is in Monifieth.
