About

Here at Featherstone's, we are a unique multi skilled company offering a one stop solution to our clients, a service very few can offer. For example, if you are looking for house clearance Grimsby in order to put a property on the market we can guide our clients through the whole process from start to finish meeting all their requirements along the way. If you suspect there are some good quality collectables in such a property, we can appraise your pieces free of charge and can either make a generous direct purchase offer reflecting the items true value, offset their value against the cost of the property clearance itself (if a charge to clear is applicable) or if they are particularly special, we can auction them on your behalf via our reputable service on the leading worldwide auction platform and not just your typical local auction room attracting only a small crowd and thus only reaching a limited price.

​

If you are simply looking for removal companies in Grimsby, we can move your items for you at the most competitive prices, fully insured and with utmost professionalism. If your property requires waste disposal, we can carry one tonne of waste in one load and provide this service for you, recycling where possible and respecting our precious planet to save as much as we can from going to landfill.

​

We are held in high regard amongst our customers, local solicitors and estate agents for our expert knowledge in valuing household contents, from antiques & collectables, general furnishings, to garage and garden contents. This is a crucial part of the clearance process ensuring clients receive the maximum amount possible from the process.

 

In the unfortunate event of a bereavement, we understand and respect the attachment and memories that people have to the simplest of furniture or trinkets they grew up with and we are always on hand to follow any instructions with the upmost respect and empathy to the situation. 

​

We serve Lincolnshire, Humberside and East Riding of Yorkshire including Grimsby, Cleethorpes, Immingham, Louth, Brigg, Humberston, Caistor, Waltham, Tetney, Market Rasen, Holton le Clay, Mablethorpe, Scunthorpe, Hull, Stallingborough, Keelby, Riby, Ulceby, Habrough, Barton-Upon Humber, Nettleton, Lincoln, Goole, Beverley and Elsham to name a few.

​

As you can see above, we are not your typical Grimsby man with a van outfit and offer a complete personal service using years of experience and knowledge gained providing clients with the whole package in a one stop process, from valuing, selling, clearing and moving.

​

  • We can clear a property in just a single day in many cases, including loft's, outbuildings and gardens when required.

  • We strive to ensure our clients receive the most cost effective option available and in some cases can actually pay the client to clear the property.

  • We operate with a two or three man team dependant on the size of the job, to ensure it is finished as safely and professionally as possible.

  • Our vehicle is a modern and clean 3.5 tonne Luton van equipped with a tail lift.

  • We work on a fixed quote basis, no hidden or surprise costs.

  • We recycle as much as possible and give to charity the contents which can be saved from landfill, such as clothing.

Meet Our Director & Foreman

Our Director Luke Featherstone BA (Hons) is a former Auctioneer & Valuer, having worked at a local Grimsby Auction firm for nearly a decade. He decided to start his own firm after seeing how the typical house clearance to local auction room model was outdated and on more occasions than not, resulted in unnecessary costs to the client. These costs involve carting the contents to the auction room in the first instance at an expensive hourly rate, to the lotting fees, auction disposal fees and auction commission costs, the auction room model is akin to an open chequebook to the client.

​

Having built up a wide network of contacts in the trade from the age of sixteen, he is able to offer an alternative approach, where the clients contents are incorporated into the overall quote. He can can clear a property and sell the saleable contents directly to the correct buyer, from the general furnishings to collectables, removing the need for his clients to pay firms to unnecessarily transport items to auction rooms. This allows for one simple process, a property will be cleared of its entire contents, and dependant on what is in the property, either a charge will be applied if there is little to no saleable content, in some cases a property can be cleared entirely free of charge if there is a mixture of saleable and disposal, or we can purchase the house clearance if there is enough saleable value. We have often paid in excess of four figure sums for a house clearance. If there are particularly special contents in a property, we can identify them and offer to auction them directly on your behalf on a worldwide platform to achieve their maximum value.

​

Over the year's, Luke has gained unrivalled knowledge in the industry and can walk into a property and know exactly how much the contents are worth, from general household furnishing to antiques and collectables, it is very rare he comes across something he has not seen before. He is very experienced in arranging and undertaking both house clearance and property removals and ensures clients are receiving the most cost effective service for their needs. He is also highly skilled in valuing antiques and collectables and has previously auctioned some interesting items, from artwork by L.S. Lowry to rare Chinese & German porcelain vases. He is not the typical man with a van Grimsby and his respectful, friendly and polite manner is always warmly received by our clients.

What Our Clients Say About Us

Louise Serrant: "If I could score Featherstone 10 out of 5 I would. I first met Luke while I was really struggling clearing mums house as she'd gone into a home, and I had to sell the house for her care. It's been years since I've met someone so genuine caring and so bloody kind. He renewed my faith in humankind. Luke humbled me. We walked round mums house together. He let me ramble on about the memories held in the house and was genuinely interested. Luke gave me a very competitive rate and after meeting some of the other clearance company's there was a clear winner. Featherstone. I only just met him, but I trusted him implicitly. He gave me a date for the clearance, and I gave the keys to him. True to his word he did exactly what he said he would do and when it would be done. I can't recommend Featherstone's enough. A genuine honest friendly hardworking company. Don't waste your time and go anywhere else than Featherstone's."

​

Paul Odlin: "Great service - professional, punctual, friendly & helpful. Can't recommend Featherstone's enough. I've left this review as I would be doing Luke and the lads a disservice if I hadn't said how good they are."

​

Denise Munnelly: "Brilliant communications both before and on the day. Luke and the team worked very hard on the day clearing a two-bedroom bungalow for us. Cannot recommend them enough"

​

Marcus Stuart-Murray: "Friendly service and great communication, I had some heavy items removed from my property, the arrangements were made, and the job was done very quickly, I would definitely hire this service again in the future.
Many thanks."
