Taking the Stress Out of Estate Cleanouts
Clearing a loved one's home is one of the most emotionally and physically demanding tasks you'll face. A dumpster rental simplifies the process by giving you a single place for everything that can't be kept, donated, or sold. Our extended rental periods let you work at your own pace. There's no rush.
How to Approach an Estate Cleanout
Start by walking through the entire home and identifying items of value, sentimental items, and items for donation. Next, arrange for an estate sale or charity pickup for usable items. Finally, use the dumpster for everything remaining: broken furniture, outdated electronics, worn clothing, expired items, and general household waste.
What Size Dumpster for an Estate Cleanout?
The average 3-bedroom home generates 20-25 cubic yards of waste during a full cleanout. We recommend a 20-yard dumpster for smaller homes and a 30-yard for larger estates. If you're unsure, start with a 20-yard. We offer affordable swap-outs if you need a second load.
Pro Tips
- Walk through the entire home before starting to get a sense of scope
- Set aside valuables and sentimental items first
- Arrange donation pickups before ordering the dumpster
- Work one room at a time to stay organized
- Ask about extended rental periods. Estate cleanouts often take 2-3 weeks
- Consider hiring a junk removal crew for heavy items like pianos and safes
