When a home anywhere in Great Barr has to be emptied, on the Birmingham, Sandwell or Walsall side, SRW Services can take the whole job off your hands. We offer house clearance Great Barr families can arrange with confidence, keeping safe the things that matter to you and taking away everything you no longer need.
We plan around how much there is and access to the door, then work room by room with you, sorting everything into keep, donate, recycle and dispose.
We remember this is someone's home and the family may be going through a difficult time, so we listen, speak plainly and handle every belonging with care.
We are licensed waste carriers and fully insured, and all our work is guaranteed, so you know your property is in capable, accountable hands.
A free home visit and quote mean you know the cost before agreeing to anything. Unlike hiring a skip, there is no permit to arrange, no wait for collection and no heavy lifting, because the team carries everything out.
SRW Services is a family run house clearance business established in 1999, and our staff are fully qualified. Our base on Bloxwich Road North in Willenhall is about 6 miles from Great Barr, a large suburban area that crosses council boundaries, with much of the B43 area falling within Sandwell. On that side, Great Barr is counted among the localities of West Bromwich, one of the borough’s six towns, with the green belt of Sandwell Valley close by.
We work with homeowners and families, executors and solicitors, and with landlords and estate agents getting a property ready to let or sell.
Great Barr was largely rural until the early 20th century, so most of the homes here went up after that. On the Sandwell side, the parts of Hamstead and Great Barr taken into West Bromwich were built up with council and private estates either side of the Second World War. A family home on one of these estates may have been lived in for decades and can hold far more than it first appears to, so it helps to describe the whole property, not only the main rooms.
Access shapes the plan too. Junction 7 of the M6 sits on the A34 at Great Barr, so the van has a straightforward motorway run from Willenhall. If the house fronts the A34 or the A4041 near the Scott Arms rather than a quieter side road, say so, as loading beside a main road takes more planning. Either way, tell us about parking and the route to the door so we can judge where the van can stop and load.
On the day, a team of two or three people usually arrives, with more for a larger property. We go through the rooms with you and sort the contents together into four groups: keep, donate, recycle and dispose. The team carries everything out for you, including bulky items and appliances such as fridges. Suitable furniture and household goods are donated to charity, materials that can be recycled are separated out, and the remainder goes to licensed or registered waste transfer stations, with as much as possible kept out of landfill.
Once the last load has gone, we tidy and sweep up so the property is left clear.
Not for the clearance itself. Because the area is split between three councils, it is easy to be unsure which side of a boundary an address sits on, and that is fine. Give us the full address and postcode, and the work is planned in exactly the same way.
Because Great Barr is close to our Willenhall base, a same day visit is sometimes possible when the diary allows, although we cannot promise one. If there is a date you are working to, tell us at the start so the visit and the clearance can be arranged around it where possible.
Take out or clearly mark anything you want to keep, then check drawers, cupboards and stored boxes for wills, deeds and bank letters, which can turn up in unexpected places. Let us know about locked rooms or anything fragile. Beyond that, everything can stay where it is until the day.
Yes, it can be. In a home one family has lived in for many years, the loft, garage or shed can hold a great deal, and it can be cleared on its own or alongside rooms in the house. Mention how the loft is reached, as that helps the team plan the work.
Ideally one person who can make decisions: you, a relative or someone acting for the estate. If nobody can travel to Great Barr for the day, tell us when you get in touch so we can plan around it.
Arranging a clearance in Great Barr comes down to three simple steps, and you can ask us anything along the way.
Get in touch with the address in Great Barr and the rooms or outside spaces involved, and once we understand what needs clearing, we will give you a quote.
Agree a day with us that fits around keys, a tenancy start or a sale. If other family members or an executor are involved, settle the date with them first so everyone knows when the team is due.
The team arrives as arranged, works through the property with you and takes away everything that is going. When the job is done, you can lock up and move on to whatever comes next for the property.
Our house clearance service covers full houses, bungalows and single rooms, and flat clearance is available for flats and apartments. Outside, we offer garage clearance and garden clearance, while rubbish clearance takes care of bulky items and general household waste. Where a home needs emptying after a death, our bereavement and probate clearance service is there for families dealing with an estate. Businesses can also ask about office clearance.
Across Sandwell, which covers part of Great Barr, we can also clear homes in West Bromwich, Wednesbury and Smethwick. When you are ready, contact us about house clearance in Great Barr.
