Estate Cleanouts · Connecticut
Clearing out a loved one’s home is emotional and exhausting work, often on a deadline set by a sale, a lease or probate. 1-800-Mr-Junker handles estate cleanouts across Connecticut with patience and respect. Our crew clears everything you’re not keeping, sets aside personal items we come across, and makes sure usable belongings are donated rather than thrown away.
We clear whole houses, apartments and condos for families, executors, attorneys and realtors. You decide what stays, and we remove the rest, from attic to basement, in one or more visits. Call 1-800-675-8653 or book online for an upfront quote.
What an Estate Cleanout Includes
- Furniture, beds and mattresses from every room
- Appliances, electronics and kitchenware
- Clothing, linens, books and decades of boxes
- Attic, basement, garage and shed contents
- Outdoor furniture, tools and yard debris
- Anything left after family members, auctions or estate sales take what they want
Handled With Care
Estate work isn’t like other junk removal. Our crews work carefully and pay attention to what they’re carrying. When they come across photographs, documents, keepsakes or anything that looks personal, they set it aside for you. One customer who cleared 25 years of belongings from a 2,400 sq ft home told us the crew found a graduation plaque and old wedding photos and saved them for the family.

How Estate Cleanouts Work
- Walk us through it. Call or book online. For full homes, send photos or schedule an estimate.
- Mark what stays. Tag or set aside items family members are keeping. We remove everything else.
- Get a firm price. Pricing is based on the volume of items, with no hidden fees.
- We clear the home. Our 15-yard and 30-yard trucks let us clear large homes efficiently, often in one visit.
- We donate and recycle. Usable items go to local charities or our outlet store. About 90% of what we haul is reused or recycled.

Estate Cleanout Cost
Most estate cleanouts are priced by truck volume. Larger homes often use one or more full loads in our 30-yard truck, which keeps the number of trips down. Ask about senior discounts and see our pricing page for load sizes.

Estate Cleanout FAQ
How long does an estate cleanout take?
Most homes are cleared in a single day. Very large homes or properties with full basements, attics and garages may take more than one visit.
What if we want to keep some items?
Set aside or tag anything you’re keeping and we’ll leave it. Our crew also sets aside personal items like photos and documents if they come across them.
Do you donate items from estate cleanouts?
Yes. Usable furniture and household goods are donated to local charities or resold through our outlet store.
Can you work with our realtor or attorney?
Yes. We regularly coordinate with executors, attorneys and realtors on access and timing.
Do I need to be there during the cleanout?
Someone should be available to confirm the quote and what’s being removed. An authorized representative can be present instead of the family.
