After the funeral, I returned to my father’s landed home in Thomson.The gate creaked like it always had. His shoes were still by the door.And suddenly, it hit me — every object in this house held a piece of him.

Clearing out a landed property sounds like logistics. But it’s not.It’s grief.It’s memories.It’s an emotional war with every cupboard and drawer.


I knew the fridge didn’t work. The wardrobe was infested. The mattress had to go.But knowing and doing? Two very different things.

Each item wasn’t just furniture — it was “his.”That meant every decision came with guilt:

  • “Am I throwing him away?”

  • “What if I regret this?”

  • “Should I keep the dining table even if it’s broken?”

Why Landed Property Junk Clearance Is So Overwhelming

Landed homes store decades of stuff:

  • Old fridges in outdoor sheds

  • Mattresses that haven’t been flipped in 10 years

  • Antique cabinets too large to move without tools

  • Bags of clothes no charity will take

  • Garden junk no one noticed until now

With no NEA collection for private property, it falls on the family — often when they’re grieving.


That’s when I found Junk Value.They didn’t rush. They didn’t judge.

They offered

✔️ Pre-clearance walkthrough

✔️ Sensitive handling of sentimental items

✔️ Full dismantling of old bed frames, wardrobes, and bulky heirlooms

✔️ Professional clearance, one lorry at a time

They treated the house like it still meant something. Because it did.
