Old Modern offers full estate clearances at competitive prices. Clearances include the entire house contents including indoors, outdoors, sheds and any other storage areas. 

​

What to expect from Old Modern: 

• We will visit the property to provide a quote for estate clearance

• When quoting an estate, an estimate will be provided to you of the expected price to clear, dispose of and sell items

• Saleable items will be transported to the auction rooms and sold

• Any unsalable goods will be donated or disposed of. 

​

We can offer a flat rate clearance, that is either a set dollar value we pay you for quality estates or a flat rate costs if there is a lot of rubbish.

 

Otherwise we can charge for collection of goods and the costs of rubbish and related disposals & donations. this transport cost is $80 per hour if only one person is needed. charged from the time we leave the Auction rooms. or $110 per hour for 2 staff if we are moving furniture and bulky items.

The goods are then sold and your total money received will be the sale price of the items, less the 16.5% auction fees less costs.
