House Clearance

Clearing an entire house is a big undertaking — logistically, and often emotionally too. Whether after a death, a move into a retirement home, the sale of a house or simply a fresh start: Edelweiss Räumungen handles the complete house clearance and household liquidation in Zurich and across German-speaking Switzerland. From the first sorting through the resale of usable items to the broom-clean handover (besenrein — swept out and completely empty, the condition Swiss landlords and buyers expect), we take care of everything.

What our house clearances include

• Complete household liquidation: Living areas, cellar, attic (Estrich), garage and garden — we clear the entire property including every ancillary room.
• Careful sorting: Personal documents, photographs and valuables are set aside and handed to you — nothing gets lost.
• Value credited against the price: Household contents with resale value are appraised and credited against the cost — for valuable estates our estate purchase is worth considering.
• Final cleaning with handover guarantee: On request we hand the house over cleaned and ready for inspection — ideal for a sale or at the end of a tenancy. For apartments, see apartment clearance.

What does a house clearance cost?

The decisive factors are the size of the house, the amount of household contents, the access (parking, distance to the vehicle) and the share of bulky and hazardous waste. One important cost factor works in your favour: usable furniture, antiques and collections are credited against the price. After a free site visit you receive a binding fixed-price quote (Offerte) — transparent and with no hidden costs.

Household liquidation after a death – discreet and respectful

Many of our house clearances take place after a death. We know how heavy that situation is for the family, and we work accordingly: clear agreements, careful handling of keepsakes, transparent documentation for communities of heirs (Erbengemeinschaft — the group of heirs who jointly own the estate until it is divided) and for executors. On request we coordinate everything directly with the property management company or the notary.
