Compassionate Estate Clearance in Chicago

Losing a loved one is hard enough without the burden of clearing a home full of accumulated memories. Whether you’re handling an estate from a distance or while grieving nearby, junkMOOvers makes the logistical side manageable.

We are respectful of sentimental items, move carefully through the home, and give you full control over what gets donated versus disposed.

What Estate Cleanouts Include

  • Full-home furniture removal
  • Appliance removal
  • Personal belongings in boxes and bags
  • Clothing and textiles
  • Kitchen items, dishes, and household goods
  • Electronics and media collections
  • Garage and storage area contents
  • Garden and outdoor furniture

The Donation Process

Usable furniture, clothing, kitchen goods, and more are directed to Chicago-area nonprofits, Goodwill, Habitat for Humanity ReStores, and other outlets. We provide you with a general donation log upon request.

What We Don’t Touch

We do not sort through personal documents, jewelry, or items with potential monetary value - that’s for the estate executor or family to handle first. We work around what you’ve already decided to keep.

Working with Attorneys and Executors

We work with estate attorneys, property managers, and executors throughout the Chicago area and can operate on a timeline that fits probate requirements.

Common Questions About This Service

How do you handle items that might have sentimental or financial value?

We pause on anything that looks like it could matter - jewelry boxes, framed photos, personal documents, vintage items, military memorabilia, hand-made items, anything unusual. The crew sets these aside and asks before they go to the truck.

Can you coordinate with a real estate timeline for selling the property?

Yes - many of our estate cleanouts are timed for property listings. Tell us the listing deadline and we work backwards. Most one-bedroom estates clear in a day; two-bedroom in 1–2 days; full house with garage and basement in 2–3 days.

How long does a full estate cleanout typically take?

One-bedroom condo: half a day to full day. Two-bedroom apartment or condo: 1–2 days. Three- or four-bedroom house: 2–3 days. Whole house including garage, basement, and attic: 3–5 days. We give you a written timeline after the walkthrough.

Can you handle a hoarder-condition property?

Yes, with appropriate planning. Hoarder cleanouts are slower (more sorting), require a larger crew, and sometimes require coordination with biohazard remediation specialists if there's active infestation or contamination. We don't judge the situation - we just plan the work.
