Andrews House

Professional, Considerate House Clearance at Andrews House, Lichfield

At Gilmore’s, we recently had the privilege of assisting a family following a bereavement at Andrews House, a retirement residence in Lichfield. St. Andrews House offers comfortable living for residents, with easy access to essential services, and maintaining peace and respect for its community is one of our top priorities when performing any clearance.

This particular clearance was for a flat located on a higher floor, and to minimise disruption to other residents, we made careful use of the building’s lift, ensuring no unnecessary noise or inconvenience. Our team always strives to work efficiently, quietly, and respectfully in environments like this, particularly where other residents are present.

Thoughtful Handling of Sentimental Items

One of the key elements of this clearance was the careful separation of personal, sentimental belongings. Precious keepsakes such as childhood teddies and other mementos were set aside with care, ensuring that they were returned to the family for safekeeping. We understand how difficult it can be to part with items connected to loved ones, which is why we take extra care in managing these personal touches during our clearances.

Donations to Local Charities

The property also contained a large collection of books, which were donated to two of Lichfield’s most respected charity shops: St Giles Hospice Charity Shop and the Oxfam Charity Bookshop. We always aim to donate reusable items to local charities whenever possible, ensuring that they continue to bring value to others and support the community.

Environmentally Responsible Disposal

For items that were no longer usable, we made sure to follow eco-friendly disposal practices. All waste was taken to a licensed local recycling center, where metals and wooden items were carefully separated for recycling. As part of our commitment to the environment, we always ensure that any recyclable materials are processed responsibly, and only non-recyclable items are sent to disposal.

Minimal Disruption and Clean-Up

As always, our team worked diligently to leave the property in excellent condition, ensuring it was cleared, cleaned, and ready for the next steps. We also made sure that any communal areas used during the clearance, including the lift and corridors, were left spotless, ensuring minimal disruption to the daily life of St. Andrews House’s other residents.
