Estate & Downsizing Cleanout Planning Guide

A written scope and a single authorized decision-maker reduce mistakes during an estate or downsizing cleanout.

Planning guide

Confirm authority and deadlines

Identify who is authorized to approve removal and whether there is a sale, closing, move or possession deadline.

  • Use one primary decision-maker
  • Share building or estate access rules
  • State the deadline at the start

Protect important property

Remove or clearly label documents, medication, jewelry, keys, photographs, financial records and sentimental items.

  • Create keep, review and remove zones
  • Do not place uncertain items in the removal zone
  • Secure private records before work starts

Plan larger properties in stages

A staged approach can separate furniture, general contents, garage items, basement material and final sweep-through.

  • Photograph each room
  • Identify donation candidates separately
  • Confirm whether additional loads will be required
