Abacus was founded by Bill Brosnan in 2007 as a family business — and that's still how we run it today. From the very start the aim was simple: build the company on trust, honesty and complete transparency, and treat every customer the way we'd want our own family treated.

To this day, the majority of our customers come to us because someone they know recommended us. We've cleared thousands of properties since 2007, and each one has taught us something about what really matters to people — being reliable, being honest, and treating the home, and the memories inside it, with respect.

People have been kind enough to thank us for as long as we've been going — in the early days with handwritten letters, a good number of which we've kept. These days you'll find that same feedback on Trustpilot.
