A step-by-step plan for clearing a loved one's home respectfully and efficiently.
Secure important items first
Locate documents, jewelry, photos and keepsakes before any large-scale removal.
Sort into four groups
Keep, donate, sell and discard. Label rooms or use colored tape to stay organized.
Schedule donations
Arrange donation pickups before the dumpster arrives so usable items find new homes.
Use a 20 or 30-yard dumpster
Most full-home cleanouts fill a 20 or 30-yard container. Walk-in loading doors make heavy furniture easier.
