Giga
Quick answer
How does probate clearance work with Giga Removals?
You send photos of the property and tell us what to keep. We price it, agree a date, then clear the home room by room.
More about this service
Items for the family go aside or to another address. Usable furniture is donated where possible. Everything else goes to licensed disposal sites. The work is priced from our hourly van-and-crew rates, and anything specific is confirmed in writing before you book.
Giga Removals works across the UK from a London base, so we can clear a property in one place and deliver keepsakes to family somewhere else. See also packing, man & van and all our services.
