Estate Cleanouts in Sonora, CA

Clearing a parent's house or an estate, room by room, with the keepsakes and papers you want kept set aside before anything is loaded.

An estate cleanout is clearing out a whole house after a parent moves or passes away. We walk through it with you first, set aside everything the family wants kept, then carry out and load the rest and sweep up. A house is priced by how many trailer loads it takes, with a 16-foot trailer piled high typically $700 to $1,000, dump fees included. Family who live out of the area can get a price from photos and see photos when the job is done.

  • Furniture in every room
  • Beds, mattresses and box springs

  • Appliances, including the old garage freezer
  • Garage, shed and attic storage
  • Yard junk, brush piles and outdoor furniture

Good to know before we come

  • Go through papers, photos and anything of value before the day.
  • Mark what stays with tape or on a list. Nothing goes on the trailer until you have said it can.
  • For work inside the house we would rather you, or someone you trust, be there.
  • Old paint, chemicals and propane tanks are set aside, and we tell you where each one goes.

How much does an estate cleanout cost in Sonora?

An estate cleanout is priced by the number of trailer loads it takes. A 16-foot trailer piled high is typically $700 to $1,000, with dump fees included, and a whole house can take more than one load.

We give you one flat price for the whole job before we start, on site or from photos, so the family knows the number before anything leaves the house.

What moves the price

  • How many trailer loads the house fills
  • Items the transfer station charges extra for: tires, mattresses, and fridges or freezers
  • Outbuildings, such as a shed or a second garage, on the same property

Where everything goes

Household loads go to the Cal Sierra Transfer Station in East Sonora, metal goes to recycling, and green waste goes to a green waste site. Mattresses, fridges and freezers are declared at the scale house, where the station charges its own fees for them, and electronics go for recycling instead of the trash.

If the family lives away, our guide for cabin owners who live out of the area walks through getting a price from photos and who needs to be there on the day. It works the same way for a parent's house.
