House clearance · Groene Hart & Randstad
House clearance, done with care and handed over broom clean
Your home cleared completely by the same experienced team: from sorting and packing to removal and a broom clean handover. Discreet, insured and with a clear price agreed in advance.
What is a house clearance?
Your home cleared completely, without the worry
During a house clearance we empty the home completely: furniture, household contents, appliances and all loose items. This often comes up at the end of a tenancy, a move to a care home, an inheritance, or simply because a home has to be handed over ready for sale or for a new tenant. Nova Woningontruiming takes care of the whole process, so you do not have to think about it.
Our regular team sorts the contents with care, packs what needs to be kept, and removes the rest responsibly and separated by type. Valuable and personal items are always set aside and discussed with you. When the work is done we hand the home over broom clean and ready for the handover to the landlord, the estate agent or the new occupant. Broom clean is the standard handover condition in the Netherlands. You know exactly what it will cost beforehand, with no surprises afterwards.

House clearance in your area
House clearance in the Groene Hart and the Randstad
Whether it is a flat in Gouda, a family home in Woerden or a retirement flat in Alphen aan den Rijn, Nova arranges the house clearance from start to finish, with an eye for your situation and for the neighbourhood.
When do you need a house clearance?
A home has to be emptied for all sorts of reasons: the end of a tenancy, a move to a care home, a completed sale or the settling of an estate. In all of these cases, Nova makes sure the home is cleared quickly, tidily and completely.
We take the entire contents with us, including the loft, the cellar, the storage room, the shed and the garden. Usable items are given a second life where possible; the rest we remove separated and responsibly. That way you have nothing left to arrange and you meet the requirements of the landlord or the estate agent.
Quickly on site in the Groene Hart
Because we are centrally based in Bodegraven, we can be at your door quickly throughout the Groene Hart, the rural region between the large Dutch cities, and the Randstad. That includes Gouda, Woerden, Alphen aan den Rijn, Boskoop, Waddinxveen, Reeuwijk and Nieuwkoop, as well as the surrounding villages and towns.
Our knowledge of the region helps: we know how parking works, how to deal with narrow streets and with flats that have a lift, and what the handover rules of local landlords and social housing associations are. That keeps your house clearance running smoothly, wherever in the region you are.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions about house clearance
What does a house clearance cost?
The price depends on the size of the home, the amount of contents and whether there are still items of value. After a short, no-obligation survey, Nova gives you a clear quote tailored to your situation, with no surprises afterwards. Do request a free quote and we will look at it together with you.
How long does a house clearance take?
An average home is often cleared within a day. With a larger property or a lot of contents it can take a little longer. During the survey we give you a realistic estimate of how long it will take.
What happens to the contents?
We sort the contents carefully. Usable items are given a second life where possible through a second-hand shop or a donation; the rest we remove responsibly and separated by type. Valuable and personal items are always set aside and discussed with you.
Do you hand the home over broom clean?
Yes. As standard we hand the home over broom clean, ready for the handover to the landlord, the estate agent or the new occupant. On request we can also arrange an additional final clean.
Do I have to be present myself?
That is not necessary. Once the key and the arrangements have been handed over, we carry out the house clearance independently and keep you informed. Would you rather be there? That is fine too.
Which region do you carry out house clearances in?
From Bodegraven we work throughout the Groene Hart and the Randstad, including Gouda, Woerden, Alphen aan den Rijn, Boskoop, Waddinxveen and Reeuwijk. Just outside this region? Do get in touch.
Do you also empty the loft, cellar, shed and garden?
Yes. As standard we take the whole home with us, including the loft, the cellar, the storage room, the shed and, if needed, the garden or the balcony. Tell us at the survey what has to be emptied and we will include that in the quote.
Do you also work for rented homes and social housing associations?
Certainly. We regularly clear rented homes and hand them over broom clean in line with the requirements of the landlord or the housing association, so that you can pass the property on without any problems.
