Dr Clutter › Estate Cleanouts

Estate Cleanouts in the Lehigh Valley — handled like family

Clearing a loved one's home is the hardest job there is. For 15 years, Lehigh Valley families, executors and attorneys have handed Dr Clutter the key and gotten back a broom-swept house — with photos, donation receipts, and anything important set safely aside.

Why families call us

Doing it alone after a loss vs. one call to the Doctor

Clearing the house yourself

  • Weeks of evenings and weekends sorting a full household
  • Separate trips for donations, recycling, e-waste and the dump
  • Curb rules still apply: TVs banned, Freon fees, one bulk item a week
  • Managing it all from out of town, between work and grief
  • The real fear: papers, photos or valuables lost in the rush

✚ The Dr Clutter way

One free walkthrough, one firm price. We sort donate-first (the estate gets the tax receipts), recycle what we can, and anything personal we find — photographs, documents, jewelry — is boxed and handed to the family, never tossed. The house is broom-swept and realtor-ready when we pull away.

Who we help most

Estate situations we handle every week

💼 Executors & out-of-town family

One phone contact, photo updates as the work happens, and direct billing to the estate. You don't have to fly in to empty the house.

🏷 After the estate sale

Estate sales typically leave behind everything that didn't sell. We're the crew estate-sale companies call to clear the rest — fast, before closing.

🏠 Realtor-ready finish

Before/after photos for the file and a broom-swept, listing-ready house in days — not the weeks a family doing it alone usually needs.

Honest truck-space pricing — estates included

Our 16-ft truck holds ~60% more than the typical franchise truck, and every price includes labor, hauling, disposal fees and the broom-sweep.

1/10 truck from $150 Half truck $550 Full 16-ft truck $1,050 3-BR full estate from $1,495

Estate cleanout questions, answered

A typical 3-bedroom home starts at $1,495 — labor, hauling, disposal and broom-sweep included. Smaller clearouts go by truck space: 1/10 truck from $150, half truck from $550, full 16-ft truck $1,050, 10% off each additional truck. The walkthrough and firm quote are free.

Most single homes take 1–2 days, and same-week scheduling is usually available. We work to estate and closing timelines — out-of-town executors manage everything by phone and photo.

Donate first, recycle second, landfill last. Usable furniture and goods go to Lehigh Valley charities — with the tax receipt issued to the estate. And anything personal we find (photographs, documents, valuables) is boxed and handed to the family. Always.

Yes — before/after documentation, direct billing to the estate, and we regularly clear what's left after estate sales so the property can close on time. Professionals: ask about priority scheduling.
