Estate Cleanout on the
Lower East Side

When you're clearing a relative's longtime Lower East Side home — an old tenement walk-up or a Grand Street co-op held for generations — JunkRabbit handles the whole home with care. Keepsakes set aside first, usable furniture and housewares donated, the rest carried down the narrow stairs and hauled. A price from photos so there's no in-home estimate during a hard time, worked to the estate's timeline.

Clearing a lifetime in a tenement or co-op, with care

The Lower East Side is old walk-up tenements off Ludlow, Orchard, and Rivington, and the Grand Street and Seward Park co-ops — homes where families stayed for generations, every closet and cabinet full. Clearing one after a death is heavy, and the steep tenement stairs make it harder. We take that off your plate. Tell us what the family wants kept and we set it aside first; usable goods go to a donation partner where we can, with a receipt for the estate; everything else is carried down by hand and disposed of responsibly. No stair fee on the walk-ups; for the co-ops we email the COI to the managing agent and book the elevator. We leave the apartment broom-clean for whoever comes next.

You don't need to schedule an in-home estimate — send photos of the rooms and we quote the whole home in minutes, priced by how much it fills a truck. Send photos for an exact quote.
