House clearance Bodegraven
House clearance in Bodegraven
Our office is on the Raadhuisplein, between the town hall and the Oude Rijn. That means we rarely have far to travel: a survey can often take place the same day, and the van is usually at the door within the hour.
Our home base
You will find us at Raadhuisplein 27A
Nova Woningontruiming is based at Raadhuisplein 27A, 2411 BD Bodegraven, right in the centre. Not a call centre that hires in a crew somewhere, but our own team setting off from this village. Call in the morning and a survey is often possible that same afternoon.
That saves time above all when there is a deadline. An estate agent who wants the keys on Monday, a tenancy that is coming to an end, a home that has to be emptied quickly after a move to a care centre: you call 085 7444 039 and we drive over. The people you speak to are the ones who carry out the work later.

Different in every neighbourhood
From the centre to Weideveld and the surrounding countryside
Bodegraven is small enough to know well and large enough to differ from street to street. Where we put the van and how the contents come out is something we assess during the survey.
The centre and the Oude Rijn
Around the Raadhuisplein, the Willemstraat and the quaysides you find older buildings and flats above shops. Narrow pavements, little room to stand still for long. We load there with a smaller van, plan the work outside the busy hours and apply to the municipality of Bodegraven-Reeuwijk for an exemption if one is needed.
Broekvelden, Vromade and the Vijverwijk
Terraced houses from the nineteen sixties and seventies, with a shed at the back and a steep loft stair. Here the work is usually not in the living room but in the store room, the crawl space and forty years of belongings in the loft. Parking is rarely a problem.
Weideveld, Dronenwijk and Rijnhoek
Newer family homes and flats on the east side of the village. Larger properties, fitted wardrobes, sometimes a lift and a parking deck whose height we need to know. For a sale we take out the flooring and the curtain rails on the same day.
What you call us for
Clearing the contents of a home in Bodegraven: four situations
Enquiries from the village and the surrounding settlements almost always fall into one of these four. Click through for the details of each type of job.
Emptying a home for a sale or a move
All the contents out, including the shed, the loft and the store room, then handed over broom clean, the standard Dutch handover condition.
02Clearance after a death
A calm pace, personal papers and photographs set aside, in consultation with the family or the executor of the estate.
03Urgent work within 24 to 48 hours
A handover date that will not move, or keys that have to be returned tomorrow.
04Commercial premises or office
Shops, offices and business units in the village and on the industrial estates, outside office hours as well.
Housing for older people and rented homes
From the older person’s home to the final inspection
Bodegraven has a great deal of housing for older people, from the flats at Rijngaarde to the sheltered homes spread across the village. If your father or mother is moving to De Vijverhof or to a care place elsewhere, the old home often has to go back to the landlord within a few weeks. Mozaïek Wonen, the social housing association that owns a large share of the social rented homes here, works to a fixed inspection list.
We hand the property over the way the inspector wants to see it, in one go, so that you do not have to finish anything off afterwards:
- Carpet, laminate and skirting boards outIncluding glue residue if the landlord asks for that.
- Screws, wall plugs and brackets removedSmall holes filled, walls and ceilings smooth.
- Store room and balcony emptyThe bicycle store or the shed behind the block as well.
- Photographs and a handover reportFor the housing association, the estate agent or the notary.

Costs
What does a house clearance in Bodegraven cost?
We drive out from the Raadhuisplein here, so there is no call-out charge on the invoice. After the free survey you receive one fixed price within 24 hours, with a date alongside it. No counting up hours afterwards. What sets the price is the volume of the contents, how easy the property is to reach and what else has to come out, such as flooring or a kitchen. How that is made up is set out on the page about house clearance.
- Studio or small flatFrom € 500
- Terraced house or family home€ 1.000 to € 1.750
- Detached house, farmhouse or property with a large shed€ 1.750 to € 3.000 or more
- Does it have to be empty tomorrow?From the village that is often possible within 24 to 48 hours. See emergency clearance.
About Bodegraven
Why the work runs differently here than in the city
Bodegraven lies on the Oude Rijn, with the A12 and the station close by. Many residents work in Utrecht, Leiden or Alphen and carry on living where they grew up. That leaves houses here that the same family has lived in for thirty or forty years, with sheds and lofts that are full to match. When a home like that has to be emptied, it is almost never only about the furniture.
Outside the built-up area the work changes again. Towards the Meije and along the polder roads there are farmhouses and detached houses with barns, cellars and workshops. We come there with our own lorries and, if the volume calls for it, with a skip. In the centre we do the opposite: smaller equipment, more trips, and an arrangement with the neighbours about the pavement.
- Village, polder and countryside
- Our own lorries and skips
- Homes along the Oude Rijn
- Reuse within our own region

Frequently asked questions
Questions about house clearance in Bodegraven
How quickly can you be at the door in Bodegraven?
For a survey usually the same day or the day after, because we are based at the Raadhuisplein. The clearance itself usually falls in the week that follows. If the handover date is already this week, do give us a call and we will see what fits.
Do you charge a call-out fee in Bodegraven?
No. Within the municipality of Bodegraven-Reeuwijk we charge no call-out fee. What the quote says is the amount you pay.
Do you work in Nieuwerbrug, Driebruggen and Waarder as well?
Yes, those villages belong to our own municipality. Nieuwerbrug aan den Rijn, Driebruggen, Waarder, the Meije and the hamlets along the polder roads all lie within a quarter of an hour’s drive.
Can you clear only the contents and leave the flooring in place?
You can. Clearing the contents is the basis: everything out of the home, the shed, the loft and the store room. Carpet, laminate, curtain rails and light fittings we add only if you say so during the survey. It is then part of the same fixed price.
My parent is moving to housing for older people and wants to take things along. How does that work?
During the survey we set aside what has to go to the new home and take that there first. Only then do we remove the rest. That way the new room is already furnished before the old house is empty.
Do you know the handover requirements of Mozaïek Wonen?
Yes, we regularly clear rented homes belonging to Mozaïek Wonen in Bodegraven and Reeuwijk. The property goes back broom clean, without rails, hooks and wall plugs and with the holes filled, so that it passes the inspection first time.
What happens to the items that can still be used?
Usable furniture and household goods go to a second hand shop or a charity in the Bodegraven, Woerden or Gouda area. The rest we separate into wood, metal, plastic and electronics and deliver to the processor by material stream.
Do you also clear a farmhouse or a home with a large barn?
Yes. In the countryside towards the Meije and along the Oude Rijn we clear farmhouses, homes with a workshop and properties holding years of storage. We then put a skip in place and work with more people, so that it is finished in a day or two.
