A house clearance in Burnt Houses does not need to be stressful. We are a friendly team from the 5 Star House Clearance group, covering North East England with a fleet of vans. You tell us what needs to go, we give you a clear, free quote, and on the day we arrive at 9am and get on with it. You will always know what is happening and when.
House clearance in Burnt Houses: the homes we clear
The Wear Valley includes traditional market towns, former railway and mining communities and neighbouring villages, so homes in Burnt Houses are often terraces, council-built houses, bungalows and larger family homes. We clear full houses or single rooms, and we aim to arrive at 9am so the property is usually cleared within a working day. Photos sent by WhatsApp are usually all we need to give you a free, no-obligation quote.
Local tip: If you are clearing a Burnt Houses home after a bereavement, we can set aside papers, photos and keepsakes before anything is taken away.

On the day
A clearance day in Burnt Houses usually starts with the largest items, such as beds, wardrobes and sofas, then moves on to smaller furniture, boxes and the contents of cupboards. We aim to arrive at 9am, and a three-bedroom house typically takes three to four hours. When we finish, the rooms are left clear and swept.
Where your things go
Charity shops and hospices are glad of good-quality furniture, clothing, books and household items. From Burnt Houses homes we donate to Children North East, Barnardo's, British Heart Foundation, Mind and St Oswald's Hospice in Newcastle. In Stockton and Bishop Auckland we also support Butterwick Hospice. Items that cannot be reused are recycled or disposed of responsibly. Read more about how we recycle and donate.
How much does a house clearance in Burnt Houses cost?
If your Burnt Houses property has more than one van can carry, a second load costs 50% of the fee. This simply covers the additional recycling-centre costs. We will explain this when we quote, so you know in advance what to expect, and there are no surprises on the day. See how our prices work.
