On the 15th of August 2015 we received a call from a new customer who needed a house clearance doing in Glasgow.
The customer was a Glasgow landlord and his City Centre Apartment had been left in a mess by the previous tenant. The customer required that we be very discreet as he didn't want anyone knowing what a state the apartment had been left in as it wasn't just a cluttered mess there was also a lot of gone off food and bottles and old takeaway packaging that had been left to rot.

We turned up at 7am dressed in plain uniforms so as not to attract attention to ourselves or the house clearance work that we were doing, the apartment was on the first floor so we made sure to bag up all the rubbish first in strong waste bags and take them down the stairs to the unmarked house clearance van that we use. Once the rubbish was all bagged up and removed to the van we took it to the local recycling centre to be disposed of and we made sure to separate all the glass and cardboard to its respective recycling containers.
When we had finished disposing of the waste we made a move back to Glasgow City Centre to the apartment and separated all the reusable items, the landlord who we were doing the clearance for wanted all the stuff that was still useful to go to charity shops so that someone else less fortunate could benefit from it.
The flat was looking much better once we had taken the furniture to the charity shop and removed all the rubbish and detritus to the waste recycling centre. This left just the cleaning to do and our little team of three men set about with much gusto getting the flat back into a re-lettable condition. Vacuuming and dusting first and then washing down the worktops and cleaning the marks on the doors.
After we were finished the landlord met us at the apartment for a visual check said he was very pleased and then we invoiced him and he paid us in full.
If he hadn't been present we have a system where we do a walk around with a video or Facetime so that our customer can see exactly what we have done and make sure its to their satisfaction.
