Make downsizing easier by clearing unwanted items and creating a more manageable home.
Over 20 Years Experience
Full Relocation Service
How our downsizing & decluttering works
To start off with, we will view all the contents of the home that you will no longer require in your new home. If there are any items of value, then we will be able to provide you with an offer to purchase them. If you’re happy with the offer, then we can swiftly pick up the items and take them off your hands. We can also provide a quote to remove excess items and rubbish too, so you are covered both ways. If you wish to sort through items yourself, The Junkman will provide quality skip bins.
Our downsizing services involve much more than just purchasing items from you – we also offer a full relocation service, so we can even help you move into your brand new home. Our whole team are fully trained and have plenty of experience to help remove the stress during the downsizing and decluttering process. They can load the truck for you and will carefully drive everything to your new address before unloading everything. Our staff are sensitive when working in a number of situations and will take as much care as necessary in your own unique situation.
What’s more, our senior downsizing services come with a full coverage for property damage and public liability too. So, you will benefit from complete peace of mind when you use our home downsizing services.
No matter where your residence is located in Victoria, we will be able to help you every step of the way. If you want to find out more about our downsizing services or have any questions, give us a call or get in touch via our contact page. We will be more than happy to discuss your situation and how we can assist you. We have all the answers and will be able to give you full confidence during this transitional phase – give us a call and we can help you get organised!
Downsizing
At some point in their lives, most people find themselves needing to relocate into a smaller property and downsize. It’s usually middle-aged couples or those who have retired, who don’t need such a large family house once their children have flown the nest, or elderly people looking to move into a smaller more manageable property or aged care facility.
If you are looking to downsize and declutter your property in the near future, you might be wondering what you are going to do with all of that extra furniture, appliances and belongings that you have accumulated over the years.

Aaron did an absolutely outstanding job helping clear my late brother’s estate. This was no small task, involving a recording studio, venue and accommodation with an enormous amount to sort through and organise. Aaron and his crew worked tirelessly for day going above and beyond to get everything cleared, sorted and handled with care and professionalism. They were incredibly hardworking, respectful and reliable throughout what was a very difficult time. I honestly can’t thank Aaron and his team enough for the amazing job they did. They took a huge weight off our shoulders and made a very challenging process so much easier. Highly recommend Aaron and his crew — fantastic service, incredible work ethic and genuinely great people.Posted on Google![]()
