Perfekt Clearance · House clearance

A wholehousehold.One price.

A parent has died or is moving into a care home, and suddenly a whole household has to be cleared – flat or house, from the attic to the garage. We secure with you what should be kept, offset whatever still has value and clear the rest at a fixed price.

  • After a death or a move into a care home
  • Documents & keepsakes secured
  • Value offset, fixed price incl. disposal

Perfekt Clearance

House or flat

With houses, there's often a garage, garden shed and attic too – and with them things like used oil, paint or tyres that have to be disposed of separately. We take care of it and provide proof of disposal.

If your mother or father is moving into a care home, we take the furniture that's going with them to the new place and clear the rest of the household – as one job.

The lease after a death

Who gives notice – and how fast?

When a tenant dies, a spouse or registered partner and other relatives who shared the household take over the lease first (§ 563 BGB, German Civil Code). If they don't want to, they must tell the landlord within one month of learning of the death.

If nobody lived with the tenant, the lease passes to the heirs (§ 564 BGB). Heirs and landlord can then terminate it early with the statutory notice period – but only within one month of learning of the death and that nobody has taken over the lease.

The statutory notice period: if the notice reaches the landlord by the third working day of a month, the lease ends at the end of the month after next (§ 573d(2) BGB). The flat has to be cleared by then – enough time if you start early.

Who can commission us

Who is allowed to order a house clearance

We only clear on behalf of those entitled to it. These are the most common cases.

  1. 1Move into a care home: the resident themselves, a person with power of attorney, or the legal guardian (rechtliche Betreuung).
  2. 2After a death: the heirs. On request, the probate court (Nachlassgericht) confirms their right of inheritance with a certificate of inheritance (Erbschein, § 2353 BGB).
  3. 3Several heirs: agree among yourselves beforehand who places the order. We document the clearance with photos for everyone involved.
  4. 4Heirs unknown, or unclear whether they accept the inheritance: the probate court can then appoint an estate administrator (Nachlasspfleger, § 1960 BGB) – who becomes our contact.
  5. 5Not sure yet whether you'll accept the inheritance? As a rule you can only disclaim it within six weeks (§ 1944 BGB). Settle this before the clearance, ideally with legal advice.
Before the clearance

What to secure – or what we should look for

You don't have to find everything yourself. Tell us what to look out for – we set aside everything personal.

  1. 1Will, inheritance contract and – if already issued – the certificate of inheritance
  2. 2ID card, pension notices, insurance policies
  3. 3Bank statements, savings books and running contracts (electricity, gas, phone, subscriptions, broadcasting fee) – they need to be cancelled or transferred
  4. 4Land register, vehicle and tax documents
  5. 5Photos, letters and keepsakes for the family
  6. 6Jewellery, cash and keys

“Toller Service, wir hatten einen großen Massivholz-Schrank der entsorgt werden sollte. Die beiden Monteure haben den recht großen und schweren Schrank sehr professionell durch das enge Treppenhaus gezirkelt. Um Schaden und Dreck zu vermeiden, wurde auf teilweise zerschlagen des Schranks verzichtet, um die Wohnung zu schonen. Dafür wurde in Kauf genommen, den schweren Weg durchs Treppenhaus zu nehmen. Sehr nette, vorsichtige Mitarbeiter haben das zu einem fairen Preis geregelt, volle 5 Sterne von uns!”

“Ich bin rundum zufrieden mit dem Umzugsunternehmen! Das Team war sehr freundlich, zuverlässig und professionell. Der Umzug verlief schnell, reibungslos und sorgfältig. Alles wurde sicher transportiert. Klare Weiterempfehlung – jederzeit gerne wieder!”

Wir waren rundum zufrieden und können Perfekt Umzüge uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen. Sollte es noch einmal dazu kommen, dass wir ein Umzugsunternehmen benötigen, werden wir uns sehr gerne wieder an Perfekt Umzüge wenden. Vielen Dank für den tollen Service!”

FAQ

House clearance – FAQs

Can't find your question? Call us or send a WhatsApp – we reply quickly, in English.

How quickly can heirs end the tenancy?
If nobody has taken over the lease, heirs can terminate it early with the statutory notice period within one month of learning of the death (§ 564 BGB). If the notice arrives by the third working day of a month, the lease ends at the end of the month after next (§ 573d(2) BGB).
Who can commission the house clearance?
After a death, the heirs – their right of inheritance can be proven with a certificate of inheritance from the probate court. If the heirs are unknown, the probate court can appoint an estate administrator. For a move into a care home, the person themselves, someone with power of attorney or the legal guardian places the order.
What happens to documents, photos and valuables?
Anything personal we find while clearing – documents, photos, jewellery, cash – we set aside and hand over to you. None of it is thrown away.
How does the value offset work?
During the survey we assess what can be sold – furniture, antiques, tools, collections – and deduct its value directly from the fixed price. For genuine artworks or large collections we recommend a specialist appraiser first; see our estate valuation service.
Can you handle the care home move and the clearance together?
Yes. We take the furniture that's going along to the care home or new flat and clear the rest of the household – with one contact and one fixed price.
How much does a clearance in Berlin cost?
It depends on volume, floor and materials. After the free survey you get a fixed price including removal and disposal. As a rough guide: from around €290 for a cellar, apartments often between €35 and €60 per m².
Can valuable items be offset against the price?
Yes. We assess furniture, antiques or collectibles in good condition during the survey and deduct their value from the price.
Do I need to be there for the clearance?
No. Many customers simply hand us the keys. We document the clearance with photos and hand over broom-clean – directly to the landlord or property management if needed.
