House clearance in Dundee

Your local clearance team

Dundee sits on the north shore of the Firth of Tay, roughly eighty miles from our Glasgow depot by way of the A9 to Perth and the A90 along the Carse of Gowrie. We have no base in the city, so Dundee clearances are booked ahead and planned in detail before the truck sets off. We clear tenement flats in the West End, Hilltown and Stobswell, post-war houses in Fintry, Douglas and Charleston, and larger homes in Broughty Ferry and Barnhill.

Every clearance starts with photos or a visit so we can give you an up-front rate. When the date comes, the team calls ahead, then works through the property: furniture out, beds and units taken apart, carpets lifted, rubbish bagged and the floors swept at the end. We put aside anything you have asked to keep and hand over personal items we find. The load travels back to Glasgow, where over 90% of what we collect is sorted for reuse or recycling.

  • We call ahead on the day so you know when to expect us
  • Up-front rates agreed before any work starts
  • Friendly, uniformed and fully insured team
  • Furniture dismantled and carpets lifted
  • Sweep and tidy once the property is empty
  • Over 90% of what we collect is reused or recycled
  • Registered waste carrier, so your waste is handled legally
  • We do not remove asbestos or hazardous waste

Local know-how

Clearing a home in Dundee

What to know before you clear a property in Dundee, and why most people find one visit from our team easier than doing it themselves.

Why one full visit matters

With a long drive between Dundee and our depot, the best approach is one well-planned visit that clears the whole property. We work out the volume beforehand from your photos, send the right truck and a full team, and take everything away together. That suits executors and family members who have travelled to Dundee and want the house dealt with on one arranged date, without having to come back.

Doing it yourself

Dundee City Council's recycling centres will take householders' vans and trailers only if a vehicle permit has been applied for beforehand. If you are hiring a van to empty a relative's flat, that application has to be dealt with before the first trip. Add the stairs in a tenement close and the number of runs a full house needs, and doing it yourself can take far longer than expected.

Tenements, schemes and villas

Much of Dundee's older housing is stone tenements, especially around the Hilltown, Stobswell, the West End and Blackness Road, where flats are reached by a shared stair and parking can be tight. The post-war schemes in Fintry, Douglas and Charleston are mostly houses and low-rise flats, while Broughty Ferry has big Victorian villas with gardens. Tell us the floor, the stair and where we can park.

Questions

Dundee house clearance FAQs

Is your team local to Dundee?
No, and we would rather be clear about that. Our only depot is in the east end of Glasgow, and our Dundee clearances are planned in advance and run from there. You choose a date with us, we confirm the details beforehand, and the team arrives with a truck sized for the job. Everything is taken back to Glasgow to be sorted.
How is the price worked out for a Dundee clearance?
We base it on the volume of items, what those items are and how easy the property is to work in. A fourth-floor tenement flat with a narrow stair takes more effort than a semi-detached house with parking at the door. Send photographs of each room, or ask us to visit, and we will set out an up-front rate for you to agree before we book.
Can you clear a top-floor tenement flat?
Yes. Stairs are part of the job in most of Dundee's older flats. Large items such as wardrobes, beds and dining tables are taken apart so they can be carried down safely, and we work steadily to keep the shared close clear for neighbours. If the stair is particularly narrow or there is a door entry system, mention it and we will plan for it.
What happens to a sofa from a Dundee clearance?
Sofas, armchairs and other upholstered seats are kept whole and separate on the truck. Scottish rules on persistent organic pollutants mean this kind of furniture must go for a specific treatment rather than general recycling. The rest of the load is sorted at our Glasgow depot, where furniture in good condition can go for reuse or to charity.
Can you help with a house in Broughty Ferry after a death?
Yes. We carry out executry clearances, including for families who live a long way from Dundee. We can take the keys from you or a neighbour, keep aside anything the family wants, and hand over papers, photographs, jewellery or cash we find. Our guide on who clears a house when someone dies covers the steps in Scotland in more detail.
