Job Description

This week, Abacus House Clearance received a call from a man who needed a
house clearance in Derby. The
customer had been working abroad for the past 6 months and had received a
call from a neighbour, with the news that his mother had passed away.

The neighbour was concerned that she had not heard or seen her neighbour in
a couple of weeks, and the customer had also received no contact from his
mother. She had no close family living near her home in Derby, meaning
communication was usually through telephone. The customers’ mother had fell
ill back in early 2016 and had since recovered, which made him believe his
mother could look after herself.

Since her body was discovered by the neighbour last week, it is believed
that she had been dead for over a week, meaning her body began to smell and
started to decay. The customer returned to the UK and appointed Abacus House
Clearance as the company for his trauma cleaning and house clearance in
Derby.

The customer informed the Abacus team that he had already taken personal
belongings from the house, and took them with him. The remaining contents
from the house was eligible for disposal, with it all being old, worn down
furniture and old-fashioned home decorations and furnishings.

Disposal of Contents

The mother had owned the property, and we therefore picked the keys up from
the customer and headed to the house for the trauma cleaning and clearance.
We began by cleaning up the bodily fluids, blood and other decomposed
materials that remained from her body.

We then took all of the furniture and home decor items from the house and
loaded it onto the van. Her clothing was also bagged up, as well as all other
items that remained, and this was all loaded onto the van. None of the items
from the house were eligible for donation, which meant they were heading to
the nearest recycling centre in Derbyshire for disposal.
