Probate specialists
Clearance, photographic inventory, auction routing for valuables, and all the paperwork an executor or probate solicitor needs. One phone call, one point of contact, and the estate often ends up ahead.
Probate is where our family business began. We work directly with executors, family members, and probate solicitors across Kingston, Surbiton, New Malden, Richmond, Twickenham and surrounding areas. Our probate service is not just a bigger house clearance — it’s a complete handover of the physical side of the estate, done quietly and respectfully, with the paperwork ready for the file.
Free, no-obligation quotation. Always after a free survey — often a phased clearance over two visits, with valuables identified and removed first. Quoted in writing before any work begins. Get a free quotation →
During a probate clearance we identify any items of potential value and photograph them before anything moves. Identified items go to our professional auction house partner for proper valuation and sale. When items sell, the net proceeds (after the auction house’s commission) are split 50/50 between the estate and Mind the Clearance. This is agreed in writing in your quotation before the clearance begins. The estate often recovers more than the cost of the clearance itself.
Jewellery, watches, antiques, silver, art, rare books, collectibles, high-end furniture, musical instruments, cameras — anything our auction partner can realistically value and sell. For items below the auction minimum, we check whether they’re saleable through other routes before anything is donated or disposed of.
Yes. Many of our probate clients are based out of the area. We collect keys from the solicitor or estate agent, video-call the walk-through, and send paperwork digitally. The inventory and clearance can happen without you ever needing to be at the property.
We treat anything personal as items to set aside for the family by default, even if you said it could go. We’ll send a photo before any borderline item leaves the property. Nothing of sentimental value is ever thrown away without a conversation.
Yes. We can hold a slot, do an inventory-only visit, and clear once paperwork is through. We’re used to the probate timeline.
Yes — the auction returns come back to us from our partner with the hammer prices and fees, and we pass the estate’s half along with the paperwork. Full transparency on every item.
