BEREAVED FAMILIES

Start with what matters to your family.

There is no need to arrive with a finished plan. Tell us about the home, which belongings matter to you and where you feel unsure. We can help you understand the clearance options without expecting every decision to be made at once.

Make room for keepsakes and memories

Photographs, letters, favourite furniture and small familiar objects can have a meaning that cannot be measured by their value. Identify anything the family wishes to keep, and tell us about items you are hoping to locate before the agreed clearance begins.

Agree the family’s instructions

Where several relatives are involved, a shared list and an agreed contact can help make wishes clear. Let us know which choices are still being discussed. Rooms or belongings awaiting a decision can be left outside the clearance scope.

Let us help with the physical work

You can ask for help with a few large items, selected rooms or the remaining contents of the home. Discuss the access arrangements and any dates you have in mind. We will explain the work and quote so you can decide how much help you need.

Talk about what happens afterwards

Some belongings may be suitable for sale through HCP Auctions. The home may also need cleaning or garden tidying once it is cleared. These are separate decisions, and we can explain the options when you are ready to discuss them.

Local help across Devon and Cornwall

Our HCP team is based at The Old Wool Mill in Liskeard. We serve both counties, including the locations below. Tell us the property’s postcode when you enquire.

A LITTLE CLARITY

Questions you
may have.

If your circumstances are different, we’re here to talk them through.

Speak to our team
Do we have to clear the whole home at once?

No. Tell us which areas are ready and which should be left alone. We can discuss a partial clearance and a scope that reflects the decisions the family has made.

Do we need to pack or move everything first?

Contact us before moving heavy items or emptying rooms. An outline of the property and the belongings you want to keep gives us a useful starting point for discussing the work.

Can you speak with our appointed representative?

Yes. Let us know who is giving instructions and who can provide access. We can discuss the arrangements with the contact the family or estate has appointed.

A CONVERSATION IS A GOOD PLACE TO START
