House clearance in Liberton

Your local clearance team

Liberton spreads across a ridge on the south side of Edinburgh, with Liberton Kirk on the skyline, the Braid Hills to the west and the Inch below it to the north. It joined the city in 1920 and grew steadily through the twentieth century, so the housing runs from stone villas on Liberton Brae and Kirk Brae to bungalows and semis around Alnwickhill and Double Hedges, and council-built homes in Kaimes and Gracemount. Our teams come through from our Glasgow depot on agreed dates to clear homes right across the area.

Many Liberton clearances are family houses being emptied after a death or a move into care, often with a loft, garage and garden to clear as well. We begin with photos or a visit and agree a rate before we start. On the day the team phones ahead, then dismantles and removes furniture, lifts carpets, empties the loft and garage and sweeps through each room. Everything returns to Glasgow, where over 90% is reused or recycled.

  • We call ahead on the day so you know when to expect us

  • 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

  • We do not remove asbestos or hazardous waste

Local know-how

Clearing a house in Liberton

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

Everything gone in one visit

A Liberton family home with a loft, a garage and a garden shed can fill several van loads, and each one needs lifting, sorting and driving. Our crew clears the whole property in a single visit, working through the house, outbuildings and garden with a truck parked on the drive or kerb. You get one date to plan around instead of weeks of weekends.

Doing it yourself

Liberton is close to the Craigmillar community recycling centre, but vans are not accepted there and every visit has to be booked as an appointment. If you need a van or trailer for bigger pieces, you must book a slot at Seafield or Sighthill and bring ID. Between the bookings and the lifting, emptying a whole house this way is a long job.

Hills, driveways and bungalows

Liberton Brae and Kirk Brae are steep, and some homes sit above or below the road with steps up to the door, which makes carrying heavy furniture harder. Many bungalows and semis have driveways, which helps with loading, though their lofts are often packed. Flats in Kaimes and Gracemount usually have shared stairs. Tell us about steps, slopes and parking when you send photos.

Questions

Liberton house clearance FAQs

Get a Quote
How is the price of a Liberton house clearance set?
We base it on the amount of contents, the type of items and the access, including stairs, steps from the road and anything in the loft or garage. A bungalow with a full loft and shed is a bigger job than a two-bedroom flat. Photos or a visit let us give you an up-front rate, agreed before any work begins.
Can you clear the loft, garage and garden shed too?
Yes. We bring everything down from the loft, clear garages of furniture, tools and boxes, and dismantle and remove sheds and fence panels if you want them gone. We cannot take hazardous items such as paint, chemicals, fuel or gas bottles, so we will set them aside and let you know.
Can you help a solicitor with an executry in Liberton?
Yes. We work for solicitors and families handling estates, clearing the property after a death and leaving paperwork once the job is complete. Keys can be collected or left with a neighbour, and anything personal or valuable we find is returned. For more on the process, see our guide to who clears a house when someone dies.
What happens to furniture that is still in good condition?
Everything we collect goes back to our Glasgow depot, where it is sorted for reuse, charity and recycling, and over 90% avoids landfill. Sofas and upholstered seating are kept whole and separate so they can be treated correctly under Scottish rules on persistent organic pollutants. If the family wants to keep particular pieces, we leave them where you ask.
Do you cover Gilmerton, Moredun and Fairmilehead?
Yes. As well as Liberton we clear homes in Gilmerton, Moredun, Kaimes, Gracemount, Mortonhall, Fairmilehead and the Inch, along with Craigmillar, Niddrie and the rest of south Edinburgh. Jobs are planned in advance from our Glasgow depot, and the team calls on the day.
