Apartment Clearance After Tenants: What to Expect (2026)

What’s typically left behind

After tenants move out, landlords often find leftover furniture, bags of waste, broken appliances, or a general mix of items.

The priority is usually speed: prepare the property for the next tenant or for sale with minimal downtime.

What affects timing

Volume and access are the main factors: floor level, elevator access, parking and carrying distance.

If you have strict handover deadlines, professional clearance helps keep the process predictable.

If renovation debris is present

If there’s also construction waste (tiles, drywall, concrete), keep it separate. It requires different handling and mixing can cause delays.
