When doing house clearances you come across a wide range of things some weird and wonderful some slightly more mundane. W.K House Clearance have come up with a list of the 5 most hoarded things.
1) Newspaper
This is the number one thing we find in hoarded house clearances usually its the first thing people start to hoard and strangely enough most of them seem unread.

2)Clothes
Although clothes are a necessity the volume you can find on some house clearances is amazing. This was particularly evident when we cleared a lady’s home of over 300 dresses.

3)Shoes
I was going to include shoes in with clothes but the amount of shoes that are found in house clearances is simply staggering. Whats more amazing is that more unworn shoes are found.

4)Plastic bags
OK i get it, plastic bags are useful but do you really need 100’s of them? Are you ever going to take them back to the shop to use again… Its time to say good-bye to the draw full.

5)Canned Food
In times gone by, Britain relied on canned foods but they have become less part of our diet, maybe this is the reason that the team come across so much canned food. Although we are not saying that stocking up with over 20 tins of the same thing is over kill.
