Yes. Cleanouts are often scheduled before a listing, an inspection, a closing or a new tenant. Tell the team about the date early so the plan can fit it.
Usually the owner. For an estate, the estate pays or the cost comes from the sale of the house. Family members sometimes share it. In a rental, the lease and local law decide between landlord and tenant.
Not always. If access can be arranged, the owner or a family member does not have to stay on site. Clear instructions about what to keep and a way to reach someone help the job go smoothly.
A lightly packed home can be a do-it-yourself project with gloves, masks and helpers. A heavily packed house brings lifting injuries, hidden hazards and emotional strain, and a team is usually the safer choice.
