For families who may live overseas or who are not available to deal with an estate in person, we offer a variety of options including video and photographic files for documenting estate assets and options for storage and shipping. We can also help take the stress out of dealing with an overwhelming situation by taking on specific tasks that you can direct from afar.

With our efficient team of cleaning and packing staff, we are able to mobilise full house clear-outs in an organised way to prepare a property for sale. We can also assist with relocations and moving of household goods to new premises, for example, when assisting individuals relocating from a home and moving to a rest home or retirement facility. We can also provide advice and support on how to downsize to make the move that much easier.

For families whose loved one has had to go into a rest home, we can assist you to sort and pack up their home and prepare it for sale. We will work with families to ensure that personal belongings are managed appropriately - valuables can be assessed for resale, items packed and stored for shipping or storage, and items of lesser value donated to local charitable organisations. We are able to organise teams to clear and clean properties including outdoor lawn and garden maintenance.

For those families that may be dealing with an estate remotely, we are able to provide a videographic or photographic inventory of the property or of specific key items as required. This service needs to be discussed early in the engagement to ensure that this can be planned for the property at the correct time.

Getting the most return on the sale of a property depends upon excellent preparation and presentation. We'll work with the client to ensure that the property is presented in its best light by organising the cleaning and pack up and basic property staging. We can also sort out gardening and any property maintenance that might be required to bring the property up to a good standard.

A variety of options are available to clients which include the ability for Estate of Grace to pack and store goods for later handling. We can also arrange shipping of goods either locally or internationally as required.

A big part of the stress of dealing with an estate, can be the daunting job of having to deal with unwanted household items and rubbish. Our first priority is to minimise the amount of rubbish that goes to landfill; our ethos is to support local charities and groups whenever possible. That means working with the client to identify items that might have a use beyond their requirements. For those items that can't be sold, donated or repurposed, we'll make it easy to get rid of the rubbish efficiently.

If anyone requires assistance to move to their new home, Estate of Grace has experience in making this process happen smoothly. We specialise in helping clients to downsize and can make moving easier. We can also be called upon to urgently remove goods from care homes.

As part of the estate management process, we can arrange for the sale of vehicles.

One of the most difficult situations to deal with is when a family pet is left without its owner due to a death in the family. We will undertake to deal sensitively with the rehoming of a beloved pet and will arrange temporary shelter and care as needed until a suitable home can be found.

Sometimes it is just a matter of a few minor repairs required to bring a property up to another level of presentation. We can sort out what is required and work with the client or estate to ensure that value is realised from the work.

Everyone's needs are different. We will sit down with our client to determine the best plan of action for packing up and preparing for a move. For some, we have arranged professional movers to facilitate the pack up and shift, we have then cleaned and presented the exited property and also provided our support to assist with setting up the new home for the first move-in day. In another situation, we were brought in to assist a family who had to leave the city unexpectedly, due to a death in the family. We were able to arrange to have their household goods packed up and put into temporary storage until they were able to attend to their relocation. The options are unlimited and depends upon the client or estate requirements.
