What is the best way to clean out my parents' home after their death?

What happens to the items that are not kept?

They are sorted into donate, recycle and dispose. Usable items can often be donated, and the rest is hauled away. Hazardous items such as chemicals and old medicines are handled safely. Ask the team how each category is handled.

Can the team find and keep valuables?

How long does it take to clean out a house after someone dies?
