House Clearance Portobello
Full and partial property clearances in Portobello — we lift, load and take everything away, then sort it for reuse and recycling.
Portobello sits in the centre of Dublin, inside the Dublin City area. We clear homes there for families, executors, landlords and letting agents — a single room, a full house, or everything from the attic down to the shed at the end of the garden.
We are a licensed waste carrier, not a man with a van: Krystal Klean Express Limited holds Waste Collection Permit No. NWCPO-25-13287-01, issued by the NWCPO, and carries full insurance including public liability.
House clearance in Portobello
Clearances in Portobello are mostly apartments, terraces and older buildings converted into flats. That usually means stairs rather than lifts, narrow hallways, and parking that has to be thought about before the van arrives rather than on the day. When you send photos, include the hall and stairs as well as the rooms — it tells us more about the job than the contents do.

Why people in Portobello book a clearance
Selling or letting a property
Estate agents want a property looking its best, and an empty house photographs better than a full one. We clear Portobello properties before photographs, viewings or a handover date.
Downsizing or moving into care
Moving to a smaller home means deciding what comes and what goes. We take away everything that is not travelling, at whatever pace suits the family in Portobello.
After a bereavement
Clearing a loved one's home is hard, and usually comes with a deadline. We work quietly, set aside papers and keepsakes, and can deal with the executor or solicitor directly.
End of a tenancy
Tenants often leave furniture, mattresses and bags behind. Landlords and agents in Portobello use us to empty the property quickly so cleaners and tradespeople can get in.
How a Portobello clearance works
- Send photos and details. Use the form on this page or WhatsApp — one photo per room or pile, plus your Portobello address or Eircode.
- Get a clear quote. We price on volume, access and item type, and explain what is included before you commit to anything.
- Pick a date. We work Mon–Sat 7am–8pm, so we can usually fit around a sale, a handover or a builder's start date.
- We clear the property. Our crew does all the lifting and carrying, protects floors and stairs, and sets aside anything you have asked us to keep.
- Everything is sorted. Reusable items go for reuse where possible, recyclables are separated, and the rest goes to authorised facilities.

What we take — and what we can't
Fine to leave for us: furniture, mattresses, white goods, electricals, household waste, carpets, timber, attic and shed contents, garden waste.
Not on our permit: asbestos, chemicals, paint, solvents, oils, fuel, gas cylinders and clinical waste. Large amounts of soil or rubble need a word first.
What changes the price of a Portobello clearance
There is no fixed price list, because no two properties hold the same amount. Four things move the number: volume (how much space it takes in the truck), access (stairs, floor level, lifts, how far we carry and where we can park), item type (heavy furniture, appliances and mattresses take longer than bags and boxes) and timing (a fixed date is easier to price than "sometime this month"). Photos let us judge all four without a visit.

House clearance Portobello: common questions
How much does a house clearance in Portobello cost?
Every job is priced individually. The things that move the price are the volume of items, how easy the property is to access, the type of items and any deadline. Send photos of each room and we will give you a clear quote for Portobello before anything is booked — we do not work from a fixed price list.
How quickly can you clear a property in Portobello?
Tell us your deadline when you get in touch and we will tell you honestly what we can do. We work Mon–Sat 7am–8pm, and we plan Dublin jobs around sale dates, inspections and builders' start dates all the time.
Do I have to be there on the day?
Not necessarily. Plenty of customers in Portobello arrange access through a family member, a neighbour, an agent or a key safe. We agree beforehand what stays and what goes, and we can send photos when the job is finished.
Can you keep certain items aside?
Yes. Tell us before we start — documents, photographs, jewellery, tools, anything sentimental — and we will set them aside rather than load them. If you are unsure about something, we will ask rather than assume.
Are you licensed to remove waste?
Yes. ManageWaste.ie is operated by Krystal Klean Express Limited, an authorised waste carrier holding Waste Collection Permit No. NWCPO-25-13287-01 issued by the National Waste Collection Permit Office. We are fully insured, including public liability.
What happens to everything you take from Portobello?
Each load is sorted. Furniture and household items in good condition are set aside for reuse where possible, metals, timber, cardboard and appliances are separated for recycling, and what is left goes to authorised waste facilities.
