Why people use our Guildford house clearance service


We understand that house clearances will often be connected to major life events. Many of the customers we work with will be sorting out an inherited property for sale after a bereavement. Other customers book us to help them downsize, clear a rental property, or help relatives move into care.

At Zero Waste Group we regularly carry out house and flat clearances across Guildford and the surrounding Surrey villages. A typical day’s work for us can feature everything from compact town-centre flats through to larger family homes. Then there are retirement properties, and countryside houses with difficult access.

We work with:

✅ Families dealing with probate

✅ Estate agents and solicitors

✅ Landlords and letting agents

✅ Homeowners preparing properties for sale

✅ Executors managing inherited estates

Many Guildford properties come with logistical challenges such as narrow access roads, permit parking, apartment blocks, stair access, or limited loading space. We know just how to plan around these situations meaning when you book or call, we can advise quickly on the best approach.

Why hire a skip or try multiple trips to the recycling centre yourself, when we can handle all lifting, loading and disposal for you? Let us clear individual rooms, lofts, garages and sheds, or do a complete and full property clearance.

We have a commitment to recycle as much as we can. Wherever possible, any furniture and household items that can still be used by someone else, will be separated for donation or recycling rather than being sent to landfill.

Probate and bereavement clearances in Guildford


It’s a sad fact of life, that most of the house clearances we carry out in Guildford involve probate properties and bereavement situations.

We’ve been in the business for years, so understand these jobs are rarely just about “clearing junk”. Families are often dealing with legal matters, property sales, emotional stress, or tight timescales at the same time.

We aim to make the process simpler and less overwhelming. You can then concentrate on other matters.

We regularly help:

✅ Executors managing inherited estates

✅ Families preparing homes for sale

✅ Solicitors handling probate matters

✅ Estate agents preparing properties for marketing

✅ Relatives clearing homes following a move into care

Many customers simply provide access remotely, particularly when they live outside the area.
Where appropriate, we can also work around estate-agent deadlines, completion dates, or key collection arrangements.

Who is your trusted team for house clearances in Guildford?


Zero Waste Group was established in 2018 when two local clearance companies merged in order to offer wider-reaching and more reliable service across Guildford and Surrey.

The ZWG management team is led by Edward Cain. Ed has worked in the recycling and reuse industry since 2009, and Michael Miller, who established his first clearance company in 2016. Together, they lead a friendly and professional team of house clearance specialists who take pride in doing the job properly.

When you book a house or flat clearance with us, including bereavement and probate clearances in Guildford, you can expect a respectful approach, clear communication, and a team that understands these jobs aren’t just “stuff to remove”.

Wherever possible, we’ll donate suitable items for reuse, and we’ll dispose of everything else legally and responsibly – read more about us here.

Responsible house clearances with a focus on recycling


We believe that all house clearances should be carried out responsibly. It should not mean simply doing the job at the lowest possible cost, and as quickly as possible.

Where items are still reusable, we prioritise donation. We also aim to get anything we can re-used (wherever practical). That means furniture, books, tools, kitchenware and household items. Can they be given a second life? Rather than being unnecessarily discarded?

Materials that cannot be reused are separated for recycling through licensed waste transfer facilities wherever possible.

The Zero Waste Group currently divert the vast majority of material collected during house clearances away from landfill – we are aiming to continue working towards improving that figure further.

By choosing Zero Waste Group, you are choosing a Guildford clearance company focused on responsible disposal, professionalism and customer care.

Fully licensed & insured


When you book a house or flat clearance, you need to be sure about where the items end up. There are cowboy outfits out there, who will fly tip waste. Zero Waste Group is a fully licensed waste carrier. We only use approved routes for disposal, recycling, and donations of unwanted items.

Once we complete a house clearance, we email a waste transfer note to the client. This is your proof that the waste has been removed legally and passed into the correct system. This gives you the peace of mind that in a potentially stressful time, it’s one less thing to worry about – especially helpful if you’re dealing with an estate, solicitors, landlord, or letting agent.

For additional reassurance, our team and vans are fully insured, including public liability cover. That means you’re protected if anything unexpected happens during the job, whether we’re clearing a house, a flat with tight access, or working around communal areas.

We like to use local charities to the Guildford area.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • How much does a house clearance cost in Guildford?

    The cost depends on the size of the property, the amount of contents, access restrictions, parking availability, and the type of waste involved. Properties in central Guildford or apartment developments can sometimes require additional planning due to loading access or permit parking restrictions. Most customers simply send us photographs or videos of the property so we can provide a realistic quotation quickly.

  • Do you provide a waste transfer note / proof of legal disposal?

    Yes. Once the job is complete and the waste removed, you will receive the note over email.

  • What happens to the items removed during a house clearance?

    Where possible, reusable items are separated for donation or re-use. Materials that cannot be reused are sorted for recycling through licensed waste transfer facilities wherever practical. We aim to divert as much material away from landfill as possible and always dispose of waste legally and responsibly.

  • Can you clear a house after a bereavement, and how does it work?

    When you book online with us, or phone, you’re in good hands. If there are specifics you wish do discuss with us, please do. But we will make it as easy as possible for you, and hassle-free. As long as we can access the property, the job will get done.

  • Can you do a flat clearance if there are stairs / no lift / parking restrictions?

    Yes, we can help you. Call us, and describe the exact restrictions, possibly with photos. We can then explain how we will complete the flat clearance and give an accurate quote.

  • Can you clear properties where the family lives outside Guildford?

    Yes. Many probate and bereavement clearances are arranged remotely by families or executors who live elsewhere in the UK. As long as we can access the property safely, we can usually manage the clearance process on your behalf and keep you updated throughout.

We reuse, recycle, and donate!
