An estate cleanout is rarely just about removing belongings. It usually follows a loss, a move to assisted living, or a difficult family transition — and it lands on someone already carrying enough. A lifetime of possessions fills every room: furniture in the living spaces, keepsakes in the closets, paperwork in the desk drawers, and half a century of memories in the attic and garage. Facing all of it alone, often on a probate or sale timeline, is overwhelming.
Our estate cleanout team exists to lift that weight. We clear entire properties — house, garage, basement, and yard — while treating the home and its contents with the respect they deserve. Items of sentimental or financial value are set aside for the family, usable belongings are donated in the estate’s name, and the rest is recycled or disposed of responsibly. Executors, adult children, and realtors across the Greater Toronto Area rely on us because every job begins with a free, pressure-free quote and ends with a property that’s ready for its next chapter.
Estate timelines are unforgiving. Probate milestones, closing dates, listing photos, and lease-back deadlines don’t pause for grief — and family members are often coordinating from another city or even another country. If you need a full property cleared within days rather than weeks, our crews can typically begin within 24 to 48 hours, and urgent same-day starts are often possible.
We clear everything the family doesn’t keep: bedroom sets, dining furniture, appliances, clothing, books, china, tools, garage contents, and the countless boxes in between. Just as importantly, our teams work with their eyes open — if we come across documents, photographs, jewellery, cash, or anything that looks personally or financially significant, it’s set aside and handed to you, never assumed to be junk. Family heirlooms get flagged, not tossed.
Estate cleanout pricing is based on the volume removed, quoted firmly upfront, and we’re happy to provide documentation for executors and estate lawyers.

A lived-in home holds far more than most people expect. Beyond the visible furniture there are packed closets, attic storage, basement shelving, garden sheds, and garages layered with decades of accumulation. Clearing it properly means hundreds of decisions and thousands of pounds of lifting — work that’s physically exhausting and emotionally draining when every object carries a story.
Live Junk Free has cleared estates of every size across the GTA: bungalows lived in for fifty years, downsizing transitions to retirement residences, inherited properties being prepared for sale, and homes that had fallen into neglect. We coordinate directly with whoever is managing the process — a family member on site, an executor abroad, a realtor with lockbox access, or an estate lawyer’s office.
Our crews work room by room at a pace that suits the family. Want to walk through with us and decide item by item? We’ll match your rhythm. Prefer to hand over the keys and receive photos of anything questionable? We do that regularly for out-of-town families. Either way, the property is protected throughout, and nothing meaningful leaves without your say-so.

The contents of a home deserve better than a straight trip to the dump:
A respectful end for the belongings, and a lighter footprint for the estate.
Estate administration has enough uncertainty already:
However the need arises, we’ve walked families through it:
Reach out by phone, text, or online — share photos, a video, or arrange a walkthrough, whichever feels easiest right now.
Get one firm, documented price for the full clearance, suitable for sharing with co-heirs, executors, or the estate's lawyer.
Book a single-day clearance or a phased schedule, timed around probate steps, closing dates, or family visits.
Our crew screens for valuables and keepsakes, donates in the estate's name, hauls the rest, and leaves the home swept and ready.
See how we’ve helped GTA families turn full, lived-in properties into clean, open homes prepared for listing, new owners, or the next generation — handled start to finish with patience and respect.
They come straight to you. Our crews are trained to watch for jewellery, cash, legal papers, photographs, and heirloom-quality items as they work. Anything significant is set aside, documented, and handed to the family or executor — nothing questionable is ever discarded without your confirmation.
Yes, and it’s very common. We coordinate access through realtors, lawyers, neighbours, or lockboxes, send photo and video updates as rooms are cleared, and ship or hold aside items you want kept. Many of our estate cleanouts are completed without the family ever needing to travel.
We do. Your quote and invoice are provided in writing for estate records, and donation receipts can be issued in the estate’s name. This paperwork helps executors account transparently to co-heirs and simplifies the administration process.
Most homes are fully cleared in one to two days, depending on size and contents. If a closing or probate deadline is pressing, we can typically mobilize within 24 to 48 hours. Families who prefer a slower, room-by-room approach can schedule phased visits instead.
Everything is sorted with intention. Furniture, clothing, and household goods in good condition are donated to local GTA charities — in the estate’s name if you wish — while metals, electronics, and appliances are recycled through certified facilities. Only items with no reuse value are disposed of.
