The trailer lift is bloody handy! Steven is easy going and will help get the job done as quick and efficient as possible for you. He was fair with the price and a super nice bloke. I highly recommend him to anyone that wants to get ‘shit’ done right. I couldn’t give him less than 5 stars even if you bribed me!

Top Cellar & Basement Clearance related questions

The time it takes to complete a clearance service would ultimately depend on the extent of work to be done. On average, it may take a few hours up to half a day to completely clear and clean a basement. Should you have an excessive number of heavy furniture that need disassembling, it may take an entire day to finish, so make sure to allow a bit of time for additional tasks such as these.

For the most part, a Tasker can handle a majority of day-to-day items like mattresses, furniture, appliances, and the like. However, there are some specific items your Tasker won't be able to clear during a clearance service, which often includes hazardous material. In case you need to remove any chemical or medical waste and solvents in your basement or cellar, it may be best to seek expert assistance from a local government agency or a licensed waste carrier.

Technically, you can book for a same-day clearance service. Do take note, however, that doing so may cause increased prices as urgent requests often yield a low number of offers. That said, it may be best to schedule your basement and cellar clearance task a few days in advance. This way, Taskers can get enough time to prepare the necessary supplies they need to handle your request efficiently.

Not necessarily. If you have other household errands that you need to run, you can simply leave your Tasker to do the clearance job by themselves. Just make sure to leave them specific instructions, especially if there are items that you don't want to be touched, removed, or disposed of. On the other hand, you're also free to stick around during the service so you can keep an eye on your belongings as well.

It will entirely depend on the extent of the clearance work. You often only need one Tasker to do a cellar and basement clearance service, but you may need the extra manpower if you have lots of large and bulky items that require heavy lifting. When posting your task, make sure to mention that you need an extra set of helping hands so you can get more Taskers to accommodate your request.

Yes! Through our platform, you'll find plenty of services that can further help you give your home the TLC it deserves. Need to deep clean your home after a long clearance day? Our house cleaners can take care of this tedious task for you so you can focus on fixing other things around the house. You can also hire expert house removalists to give you a hand if you're transferring residences or moving to a new location.

Suggested reads about Cellar & Basement Clearance

What do cellar and basement clearance services include?

Hiring a clearance specialist can be quite beneficial, whether you're aiming to organise and declutter your basement or empty your cellar entirely. This particular service usually entails a Tasker going to your home to clear out the contents of the area–from boxes of junk and piles of rubbish to old and unused household items that haven't seen the light of the day. Upon request, your Tasker can even bring your things to an appropriate facility for proper recycling and disposal.

If you're booking a cellar and basement service with us for the first time, here's what you can expect:

Clearing your basement or cellar

Depending on your needs, your Tasker can either assist you with clearing your entire basement or sorting your items to determine what stays or goes. Whichever route you take, your Tasker can help you find an efficient way to make the clearance process a lot smoother. It may include boxing or storing away smaller items first and disassembling larger furniture pieces that you want to take out.

Basement junk removal

If you already have the items you want out of your basement ready to go, you can also hire an expert for a removal and disposal service. It typically involves gathering unwanted items for disposal, which may include old furniture, faulty appliances, and random junk found in your cellar.

Aside from this, we can also connect you with house rubbish removers who can help you segregate all sorts of rubbish, not just in your basement but in other rooms around your home as well.

Post-clearance cleaning

Once your home's cellar or basement is free of contents, the last item on the to-do list should be a proper clean-up. You're bound to face copious amounts of dust bunnies and leftover dirt piled on the floor, especially with the bigger and bulkier obstructions out of the way. Taskers can do a quick cellar cleaning to make sure that the area is free from grime.

If you happen to be moving out of a rented home, you can also hire a professional end of lease cleaner to do an overall cleaning of not just the basement, but the whole house or flat as well. This way, you get to ensure that you're leaving the property utterly spotless before turning it over to your landlord or the new tenants.
