Professional Estate Clearing & Cleanout Services on Long Island

Long Island features many different exclusive housing communities – from gated communities to incorporated villages, which tend to have strict rules and regulations in place that can complicate the estate cleanout process. Whether you’re clearing an estate in the incorporated village of Garden City, or within The Links in North Hills, it can be difficult to understand all the regulations, let alone adhere to them to ensure you don’t face any complications.

Many gated communities restrict access for vendors to limited hours on weekdays only and have strict waste removal regulations. Additionally, there may be restrictions for temporary storage like PODs or waste containers such as dumpsters that can make an estate cleanout extremely difficult.

As you clear out an estate and prepare it for sale, it’s also vital to keep in mind that most even have limitations on the size, placement, and duration of real estate signs. 

Our team ensures a smooth process by adhering to the regulations of your particular neighborhood and working within its limits, so you can focus on what matters most without having to deal with the additional stress.

Stephanie and Judy were amazing and my husband could not have been happier with how everything went (as of course was I). They were so professional and so nice that it made the day go by so quickly. If only everything in life was this easy. We may want to use Done and Done again this summer when we move to our new home out East. Again, thank you so much for all of your assistance.

Our Process

We follow a five step process that allows us to tackle estate cleanouts in the most efficient way possible.

Step 1: Consultation & Assessment
We start by scheduling a consultation so we can assess the scope of the project and ensure that we fully understand the needs, desired timeline, and top priorities.



Step 2: Planning & Organization
Next, our team creates a customized plan that includes all the important details of the project. It will break down our strategy for effectively managing the estate, what resources we’ll need in order to do so, and an estimated timeline for completion.
Step 3: Sorting & Decluttering
Once we’ve agreed on a plan of action, our team will jump right into action. We’ll work through sorting all belongings, identifying what items are going to be kept, what may require a professional appraisal, items for donation, and what things will be thrown away.
Step 4: Distribution & Clearing
Once the contents have all been sorted and organized, our team will handle clearing out the property and the distribution of those items to their respected place. We’ll help organize appointments with high-end appraisers, arrange donations to local charities, and handle recycling and disposal of non-usable items.
Step 5: Documentation & Review
Our team can help with any necessary documentation - from detailed inventories of all the items that you’ve chosen to keep to organizing tax documents for any donations. Once the project has been completed and sufficiently documented, we’ll do a final walkthrough to ensure the space is cleared to your expectations and that you’re fully satisfied.
