End of Tenancy Clearance Glasgow

Tenants leave things behind, and a property cannot be relet until they have gone. We clear rental homes between tenancies, record what we remove and leave the property empty for cleaning and the next check-in.

Between tenancies

From check-out to ready to relet

Sometimes it is a mattress and a few bin bags. Sometimes it is a whole flat's worth of furniture, clothes and kitchenware after a tenant has gone without warning. Either way, nothing else can happen until the property is empty. The cleaners cannot start, the inventory clerk cannot check in, and every day it stands empty is a day without rent.

Jettison clears rental properties across Glasgow for private landlords, letting agents, factors and student accommodation providers. We plan around your check-out and check-in dates, collect keys from your office if you cannot meet us, keep a photo record and a list of what goes, and leave the property swept and ready for the next stage. If a property will be empty for longer, needs work or has been left after a death, our void property clearance service covers that too.

Landlord know-how

Clearing a rental property properly

End of tenancy clearances come with their own rules and pressures. This is how we help you handle them.

Working to the letting calendar

Glasgow's student and professional lets often change hands within days, especially around the summer turnover in the West End, Partick, Finnieston and the Southside. Let us know when the outgoing tenant leaves and when the next one arrives, and we will fit the clearance in between so the cleaners and the inventory clerk are not held up.

Belongings left behind

When a tenant leaves possessions, a landlord should take reasonable steps before disposing of them, especially if the tenant might come back for them. Our guide to tenant belongings left behind in Scotland sets out what to check. Once you give the go-ahead, we take pictures and note down each item, so the tenancy file shows what was there and what happened to it.

Evidence for deposit disputes

Tenancy deposits in Scotland are held in approved schemes, and any deduction for clearing the property may need to be backed up. Dated pictures from before and after the clearance, plus our item list, give the scheme's adjudicator the kind of independent evidence they look for.

Keys and access

Most end of tenancy clearances happen with nobody present. We collect keys from the agent, use key safes or meet a concierge, and return the keys when we finish. In tenement closes we keep the stair clear for neighbours and sweep up after ourselves.

HMOs and portfolios

If you manage several properties, we can work as your regular clearance contractor, with one point of contact and a single monthly invoice. We also clear HMOs and student blocks with several rooms or flats to empty at once.

Reuse rather than skips

Furniture and appliances that tenants leave behind are often in good condition. Anything suitable goes to charity partners or reuse projects, and the rest is sorted for recycling at our depot instead of being thrown in a skip in the street. Carpets are covered in our carpet disposal guide.

Questions

End of tenancy FAQs

Get a Quote

Does someone need to let you in?

Not necessarily. Keys can be picked up from your branch, a lockbox or the concierge desk. We phone before we set off, send pictures of the emptied rooms and drop the keys back afterwards.

How long does an end of tenancy clearance take?

It depends on how much has been left and how easy the property is to work in. A lightly furnished flat can be done in a few hours, while a fully furnished house with a loft and garden takes longer. Our guide on how long a house clearance takes gives more detail.

Can I have proof of what you took away?

Certainly. Every room is photographed as we arrive and again as we leave, and on request we write up a list of the items removed. Keep it with the tenancy paperwork in case the deposit return is challenged.

Can you handle student flats and HMOs?

We do this a lot, often several bedrooms or flats in one block. When the summer changeover comes round we group neighbouring addresses together where the dates line up.

What is the difference between an end of tenancy and a void clearance?

An end of tenancy clearance happens in the short gap between one tenant leaving and the next arriving, so it is mostly about dates, records and deposits. A void clearance is for a property that will stand empty for longer, perhaps for repairs, a sale, a return to a housing association or after a tenant has died.

Do you take carpets and white goods?

Yes. We lift carpets and underlay if you want the floors bare, and we remove fridges, washing machines and cookers, sending them to approved facilities for recycling.
