Cleanout

What is the cost for this service?

Call 816-867-2022 for a accurate bid on the possible cleanout of your homes contents. Costs vary with every cleanout as there are many reasons to have a cleanout.
1. Estate sale ends and owner wants the house completely empty as soon as possible.
2. Before the house goes on the market, the homes contents need to be removed to present the home in the best possible light.
3. New owners take possession soon and help is needed to get the home empty to keep the homes contract intact.
4. The location may already be on the market and not selling and the decision is made to remove all contents to present the home in a better way.
5. Home needs to be emptied as the resident has passed and the residence needs to be sold or rented.
6. Many more...

Am I (as the homeowner) PAID for these leftover items if I have an estate sale?
In most cases, no. The cleanout company will take everything left at the end of the sale from large to small items.
The cleanout company makes their money by selling the items at some point down the road.
They safely pack and move everything out of the home so the home is empty of all items that were in the sale.

What happens to the items that are taken by the cleanout company?

They store and sell the items at some later date... could be a week, month or a year. Other items are donated to local organizations.

Can I remove items I do not want taken before the cleanout company arrives?
Yes. You always own the items so you can remove whatever you want to keep and haul off on your own.
The cleanout company only takes what is left.
We suggest the homeowner come in Saturday evening after the sale to mark or remove whatever they want to keep.

Does Painted Penny own or control the cleanout company in any way?
No. Cleanout companies available are privately owned.

When does the cleanout take place?
Generally within 24 hours after the sale ends.

Who oversees the cleanout?
Painted Penny will be there to watch as all items are removed.
We want to be sure items are removed safely and we also double-check all drawers and cabinets to make sure everything that was in the sale has been removed.

Does the cleanout company CLEAN the house?
No. They are not a house cleaning company.
The house is left empty and 'broom clean", meaning the house is ready for a deep cleaning before new owners take possession.
