Clearing Out and Cleaning a Home After a Death

When a loved one passes away, you, as a surviving family member, have a lot on your mind. In addition to the emotional aspect, there are also many practical matters that need to be taken care of. This includes taking care of the deceased’s home, especially if he or she lived alone. 

In most cases, the home must be sold or returned to the landlord. Clearing out and cleaning the home is often the responsibility of the heir. It’s a task that many bereaved family members aren’t ready to handle at that moment. We are.

Clearing Out a Home After a Death

Before we begin cleaning the home, we make sure it is empty. Clearing out a home can be an emotional process for the bereaved; our trained staff know how to handle this situation. We’ll help label items and boxes as needed. Depending on your wishes, we’ll store the items, take them to a thrift store, or dispose of them at a landfill. If necessary, we’ll arrive quickly and clear out the home efficiently and with care.

Cleaning a Home After a Death

When a home is vacated, we clean it, no matter how dirty it is. We’ve seen plenty of messes and grime over the years, so we can handle just about anything. We go beyond just cleaning—we restore the spaces to like-new condition so that a new owner or tenant can move in quickly.

Here's how we make sure a space is spic and span again:
  • Performing minor repairs in and around the home.
  • Remove wallpaper, flooring, and curtains.
  • Repairing and painting walls. 
  • Tidying up the garden and doing yard work such as pruning and mowing.
  • Restore the rental property to its original condition and, if necessary, attend the rental inspection.
  • Remove odors, using ozone treatment where necessary.

Cleaning Up After a Body Is Found

If a deceased person has been lying unnoticed in a home (often for an extended period of time), this may constitute a high-risk situation requiring the home to be disinfected. We have a special team for this purpose. Read more about cleaning after the discovery of a body
