How ONESource Coordinates Estate Clear-Outs with Sensitivity and Efficiency
Clearing out a loved one’s home after loss is a task no one looks forward to. It’s physically demanding, emotionally draining, and full of decisions you don’t feel ready to make.
At ONESource Moving Solutions, we understand the delicate balance of speed and sensitivity. Our estate clear-out services are designed to honour the memory of your loved one while relieving you of the overwhelming burden of logistics.
With empathy, expertise, and clear communication, we help families manage one of life’s hardest transitions—step by step, piece by piece.
Why Estate Clear-Outs Are So Emotionally Complex
Grief doesn’t follow a checklist. Yet during one of the most vulnerable times in your life, you’re expected to:
- Sort and pack personal belongings
- Coordinate donations, junk removal, or appraisals
- Prepare the home for sale or transfer
- Manage family expectations or disagreements
- Decide what to keep—and what to let go of
It’s not just a clean-out. It’s a goodbye wrapped in a to-do list.
That’s why ONESource approaches every estate with care, confidentiality, and respect.
Our Estate Clear-Out Services: What’s Included
Every family’s needs are different, but our estate services typically include:
1. Personalized Sorting Support
We help families go room by room—gently categorizing items into:
- Keep
- Donate
- Sell
- Recycle/Dispose
- Legacy Preserve (e.g., scrapbooks, photos, memory boxes)
We handle the physical work. You make the emotional calls—with our guidance when needed.
2. Donation and Removal Coordination
We manage all removal logistics so you don’t have to:
- Partner with trusted local charities

We take pride in respectfully rehoming items where possible—and minimizing landfill impact.
