3 Reasons You May Need A House Cleanout Service

Posted by Julian Torres, "JT" on Sep 30, 2015 11:43:37 AM

Realtors, real estate agents and others often find themselves in situations where they need a house cleanout service. And it is typically a time-sensitive situation, as well. Because of the nature of the realty business and the varying needs of clients, professionals and often family members are faced with circumstances that require the services of professional clean out and hauling services.

Why You May Need a House Cleanout Service

In a typical house sale, the sellers and former occupants will usually have all their own belongings and furniture packed and moved quite some time before the new owners step into their new purchase. In fact, it is not at all uncommon for many houses to be shown and then sold already vacated and cleaned.

However, there are also a number of circumstances that often arise that require the Realtor, real estate agent or - in some cases even family members - to make arrangements for the clean out of a home and the hauling and disposal of furniture, debris and trash. For the most part, these circumstances can be categorized into the following three scenarios.

Three Typical Reasons for a Professional House Cleanout Service

There are situations that often call for the help of a professional house cleanout service and here the three most common:

1. Foreclosure Sale

Often in the process of a foreclosure sale, the prior occupants will vacate the property without cleaning the house, grounds, garage, etc. On occasion, these former residents will also leave rather quickly and abandon unwanted or damaged furniture and appliances. Garages and storage sheds in the backyards can be left with tools, debris and assorted household items that have been simply left behind.

In this situation, a prudent short-sale or REO specialist will hire a professional house cleanout service to remove and haul away all of these items. A professional firm, such as Junk King, will ensure that the project is accomplished quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively for the bank or agent responsible for the clean-up.

2. Estate Cleanout

Unfortunately, when people pass away and leave their home and personal belongings unattended. While an estate sale can often take place to disburse the goods, not everything can be sold. Even more often, the surviving family members - if there are any - chose not to have a sale and decide to simply distribute some items among themselves and dispose of the rest.

This type of situation can result in a great quantity of furniture, appliances, household goods and even garbage and debris that must be cleaned up and hauled out. Once again, a good real estate agent will hire a professional house cleanout service to handle this task. Given the nature of the event, it is typically a good decision to make use of the speed, professionalism and efficiency of a quality firm.

3. Value-Added Courtesy

While not uncommon in the real estate sales industry, this is not a service offered by every Realtor or real estate agent. However, many professionals will provide a house cleanout as a courtesy and an added value feature to their clients. The scale of this type of cleanout can vary depending on both the size of the property being sold and the quantity of items needing to be removed.

Not only can these type of added benefit be viewed as a competitive advantage and an outstanding customer service function, by using a professional house cleanout service like Junk King can make it an especially cost-effective investment for the Realtor or agent.
