Full Garage Cleanout Before Listing in South Houston, TX

A South Houston family called us to clear out a garage before putting the house on the market. It was a full one, the kind that builds up over years, and it needed to be gone before photos and showings could happen. Here is what came out, how long it took, and what the job came out to.

Before and after. A packed garage cleared down to a swept, open floor ahead of listing the home. South Houston, TX.

The Job: Clearing a Garage Before the House Goes on the Market

This one was in South Houston. The homeowner's father had moved into a retirement home, and his daughter was getting the house ready to list. The garage still had years of belongings in it, and none of it could stay if the home was going to show well.

It is a situation we run into often. A family is handling a big transition and the garage is the last thing standing between them and putting the house up for sale. We show up, clear it out, and let them move on to the next step.

What We Hauled Out

This garage had been used for storage for a long time, and it showed. Here is what came out:

  • Heavy furniture
  • An upright piano
  • Shelving units
  • Cabinets
  • Storage totes
  • Ladders
  • Household items
  • Miscellaneous garage contents

The piano and the heavier furniture pieces made this one more physical than most garage cleanouts, but that is exactly the kind of load we are set up to handle.

More Than a Trailer Load, Done in One Trip

This garage held more than our trailer could take on its own. We loaded it full, and the remainder went into the truck bed so the whole job finished in one trip instead of two. Nobody had to wait around for a second run.

I worked this one solo, and it still came together in about an hour on site. A heavy load does not have to mean a slow one.

How Big It Was, and What It Ran

All in, this was more than one full trailer load, and it took about an hour on site, worked solo. This one ran $550.

How It Turned Out
