House Clearance Whittington

Clearing a home in Whittington, whether it is a red brick cottage in the old village or a larger family house with a big garden, can feel like a lot to take on. SRW Services offers house clearance Whittington families can rely on, handling the whole job with care so you can concentrate on everything else going on.

Efficient

Every job is planned before we arrive: which rooms come first, how the loading will run and anything that needs extra care. On the day the team works steadily through the property, so the clearance keeps moving without fuss.

Courteous

Clearing a parent's home is personal, so the team handles every belonging with respect and works calmly around the family. We are polite and considerate towards neighbours throughout.

Trustworthy

We are licensed waste carriers and fully insured, and whatever leaves your property goes to licensed or registered waste transfer stations. All of our work is guaranteed, giving you a clear standard to hold us to.

Affordable

A free home visit and quote come first, whether you need a few rooms or the whole house cleared. With the team carrying everything out, there is no skip or permit to arrange.

About SRW Services

SRW Services is a family run house clearance business, established in 1999, with fully qualified staff. Our base on Bloxwich Road North in Willenhall is about 12 miles from Whittington. The village sits roughly 3 miles south east of Lichfield, in Staffordshire, and has a WS14 postcode.

The Coventry Canal curves along the north and east sides of the village, while open heathland at Whittington Heath lies to the south. Between them sit the old village streets, the post war estates and the quieter lanes that lead out into the surrounding countryside. To the south west, the A51 Lichfield to Tamworth road passes Whittington Barracks, on the western edge of the parish.

Whittington Homes Between the Canal and the Heath

Whittington’s older streets need a little more planning. The historic core of the village, strung along Church Street, Fisherwick Road and Main Street, has been a conservation area since 1969, and many of the older homes in and around it are red brick cottages and period houses. That means extra care moving furniture out through older doorways and gates.

The village roads were adapted for motor traffic rather than built for it, and parking and congestion are a familiar local concern. We agree where the van will stand before the day, so the team is not left blocking a lane outside a cottage on Back Lane or by the canal on Burton Road.

Away from the old core, the homes change. Post war cul de sacs built off both sides of Main Street hold detached and semi detached family homes, where a loft or garage can hide years of belongings. Heading east along Fisherwick Road, plots grow larger, and big detached houses stand on much of the former grounds of Whittington Old Hall, which can mean outbuildings and gardens to clear alongside the house. North of the village the lanes narrow, and Park Lane winds from Huddlesford out to the scattered houses and farms of Fisherwick.

What Happens on Clearance Day in Whittington

Usually a team of two or three arrives on the day, with more people for a larger detached house or a property with outbuildings. Before anything is lifted, we sort belongings with you, room by room, into four groups: keep, donate, recycle and dispose. Anything you want to hold on to is set aside first.

Items in good condition are donated to charity, and we recycle as much as possible to keep waste out of landfill. Whatever is left goes to licensed or registered waste transfer stations. The team does all the lifting and carries everything out, so nobody in the family has to wrestle heavy furniture down the stairs. Once the last load is away, we sweep up, leaving the rooms empty and tidy for whatever you have planned next.

Frequently Asked Questions

Alongside Whittington itself, we cover Fisherwick, the canal side hamlet of Huddlesford, the small cluster of houses at Whittington Hurst, and Hademore. If you have more than one property to clear in this part of the district, mention every address when you get in touch so the work can be planned together.

Either side of the move can work. Housing in Whittington leans towards larger family homes, so moving somewhere smaller often leaves a lot of furniture with nowhere to go. Clearing beforehand means your parent can point out exactly what stays and what goes, while clearing afterwards means everything bound for the new home has already left and the team simply empties what remains. Just tell us roughly when the move is planned.

Usually the executor named in the will, an administrator if there is no will, or a family member or solicitor acting for them. We are glad to work with any of them. It helps to agree early on who will decide about belongings, especially in a large family home holding a lifetime of possessions.

Timing depends on how the diary looks when you contact us. Same day visits are sometimes possible, but we cannot promise one, so get in touch as early as you can and tell us about any date you are working towards. For one of the larger detached houses along Fisherwick Road, where the plots are bigger, the visit itself can take a little longer, as there is more to look over.

Often, yes. We help owners and estate agents clear properties ready for sale, and we help landlords prepare a rental for new tenants. An empty house is easier to show and photograph, and buyers or tenants can picture their own furniture in the rooms. In the conservation area, clear rooms also let the character of an older property come through.

Our 3 Simple Steps to a Clearance:

Getting a Whittington property cleared comes down to three straightforward steps, and you can ask us anything at any stage.

Get a quote

Get in touch and tell us about the property: how many rooms need clearing and whether a loft, garage, shed or garden is involved. We then arrange a visit to look at the job in person and give you a free quote, so you know where you stand.

Set a date

Agree a day that works for you and fits the diary. Let us know about anything that affects access, such as where the van can park, and who will be there to let the team in.

We clear the property

The team arrives on the agreed day and works through everything on your list until it has all gone. Once the sorting is agreed, you can stay while the work goes on or come back when it is finished, whichever suits you and the family.

How Can We Help You?

Have had the pleasure of srw removal services several times over the last 10 years. Recommended by my parents I decided to give them a try after a competitive quote. Throughout it almost seemed like they treated my property like it was their own with due care and attention being made from one property to the other. More than happy to leave these guys a recommendation as I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again if needed.
