We sell what has value, donate what is useful and clear the rest. One agreement, no upfront fee, and an itemised statement showing exactly what sold, where and for how much.
No upfront fee · Paid for what sells · Itemised statement · House left empty
Downsize Detail sells and clears the full contents of Southern Highlands homes. For deceased estates, downsizers, post settlement handovers and settled separations. There is no upfront fee and we earn a commission only on what sells. Antiques, art and collections go to auction houses and specialist buyers, tools and collectables to eBay and online marketplaces, furniture to local buyers, useful items to local charities and only what remains to a skip. You receive an itemised statement and an empty house. The first step is a free 15 minute video call.
A full house of contents usually arrives at the worst possible time, often with a settlement date already set. We take on a small number of jobs at a time so a tight deadline gets the attention it needs. Whatever the situation, we take the whole job on, respectfully and discreetly, with the value returned to you. It always starts with a free video call.
Decades of belongings and a family that cannot face sorting them. We identify the pieces with real value, return anything sentimental we find along the way, sell through the right channels and provide a full statement for the estate file.
The new place fits a quarter of what the old one holds. Rather than paying someone to take it all away, we sell what is worth selling, donate what is useful and clear the rest. Thirty years of accumulation becomes money in your pocket, not landfill.
The house sold and the contents did not. Vendors and agents call us for exactly this. We sell the contents, clear what remains and hand over an empty, settlement ready property on time.
Once a property settlement has been agreed or orders are in place, we sell and clear the household with complete discretion, acting for both parties jointly, with an itemised statement for each. We do not take on homes where the division is still in dispute.
Most clearance operators charge you to take everything away, then quietly sell the good pieces themselves. We work the other way around. There is no upfront fee. We earn a commission only on what actually sells and nothing on what does not, so we are motivated to get the best price for every item. Your contents, your money.
Selling a house full of contents normally means an auction house, online listings, buyers who do not show up and a clearance crew. We replace all of that with one dedicated point of contact.
One point of contact manages every sale from walk through to handover. You never chase an auction house, meet a marketplace stranger or book a truck.
Executors, families and agents receive a full statement of what sold, through which channel and for how much. For estates it is the paper trail the solicitor will thank you for.
Fine pieces deserve an auction room, not a lawn. Everyday items sell faster locally. We route every item to where it will fetch the most, including licensed auction partners for antiques, art and vehicles.
We live and work in the Southern Highlands. Estates are handled quietly and with dignity, sentimental finds come back to the family, and whatever does not sell is donated locally before anything is thrown away.
Real estate agents. Sold a property that is still full? We are the one call that gets your vendor's contents sold and the house empty by settlement. And before your next listing, we prepare properties for market too.

There is no upfront fee. We work on an agreed commission on what actually sells and nothing on what does not, confirmed in writing before we start. In many estates the contents pay for the entire clearance with money left over for the family.
A long held three or four bedroom Southern Highlands home usually holds somewhere between $3,000 and $12,000 in sellable contents once every item is routed to the right channel. Homes with tools, machinery, collections or genuine antiques often go well beyond that.
It depends on the home and the deadline. When a settlement date is bearing down we work to it, and pre settlement handovers are one of the most common jobs we do.
No, and that matters. We sell on your behalf and earn a commission on the results, so when your items sell for more, we do better too. You receive an itemised statement showing every item, where it sold and what it made.
Useful items are donated locally first, including to the hospice op shop in Bowral. After that, whatever genuinely has no home is disposed of responsibly. On most jobs that amounts to a single trip to the tip.
Bowral, Mittagong, Moss Vale, Robertson and the greater Southern Highlands, roughly 25 kilometres around Bowral. If you are just outside that, call anyway and we will tell you straight whether we can help.
Yes, and agents ring us for exactly this. A sold house still full of contents can usually be sold down, cleared and cleaned before settlement. The earlier you call, the more of the value we can recover for the vendor.
