What Is a Property Cleanout?
A property cleanout involves removing unwanted contents from a space and preparing it for its next stage. This might mean clearing out a basement full of stored belongings, emptying a rental unit after a tenant has left, removing the contents of a garage or attic, or handling the careful process of clearing an estate after a family member has passed.
We handle the sorting, removal, and hauling so you do not have to. Where practical, we separate items for donation and recycling to minimize waste. We serve properties across Hamilton, Stoney Creek, Ancaster, Dundas, Waterdown, Burlington, Grimsby, and Oakville.

Cleaning and Cleanout Together
Pro Cleanout Services offers both removal and cleaning. Once a property is cleared, we can follow up with a cleaning visit — sweeping, mopping, wiping surfaces, and leaving the space in a condition that is ready for sale, renovation, rental, or move-in. Coordinating both services through one company simplifies scheduling and ensures a consistent result.
How It Works
From assessment to a cleared property.
Describe the Property
Tell us about the space — the size, what needs to be removed, the timeline, and any items that should be kept or handled with particular care.
On-Site Assessment or Photo Review
We assess the scope in person or via photos you provide, and deliver a clear quote based on the volume of contents and the work involved.
Cleanout Day
Our team sorts, removes, and hauls away contents systematically. We handle donation drop-offs and recycling where practical.
Optional Post-Cleanout Clean
If requested, we clean the space after removal so it is ready for whatever comes next — sale, renovation, rental, or personal use.
What We Cannot Remove
We handle standard household and property contents. The following are outside our scope and require specialized disposal:
- - Hazardous waste or chemicals
- - Asbestos or asbestos-containing materials
- - Medical or biohazard waste
- - Paint, solvents, or other regulated liquids
- - Propane tanks or pressurized containers
- - Items requiring specialized permits for disposal
If we encounter items outside our scope during a cleanout, we will let you know so you can arrange appropriate handling.
