Estate Cleanouts in Ghent
The typical Ghent house was built in 1939 or earlier. Nearly a century of family life lives in its third-floor rooms, closets under the eaves and porches. When it’s time to clear one, we go floor by floor and take only what the family has let go of: half a truck is $431, a full sixteen-yard load $732.
Norfolk’s Historic Heart
The Ghent District takes in Ghent, West Ghent and Ghent Square, with shops spilling along Colley Avenue into Chelsea and the Railroad District.
In the 23507 ZIP just under half of homes are owner-occupied. Porches, attics and third floors are where most of our time goes here.

Working in Old Houses
Careful on the Stairs
Plaster walls and old banisters get padding. Big pieces come down slowly, or apart if needed.
What Stays, Stays
Tag the heirlooms and the crew works around them. Nothing leaves without being on the list.
Norfolk’s bulky pickup needs a request by 3 p.m. the day before, and electronics aren’t collected at the curb. A whole-house cleanout usually needs more than the curb can hold.
Ghent Estate FAQs
How much does it cost to clear a Ghent house?
Most whole houses run between half a truck ($431) and a full truck ($732); larger homes can need more. Photos of each room set the price.
Can you take a piano down from an upper floor?
Yes. An upright is $364; mention the floor so we bring enough people.
What about old books and papers?
Books go to donation where possible. Shred any personal papers you want destroyed before we arrive.
Do you work in West Ghent and Ghent Square?
Yes, the whole Ghent District.
