How does your antique house clearance service work?

Here are four common scenarios:

1 If the contents of the house to be cleared have no antiques or collectables with resale value, then we suggest you use a reputable, licensed & insured house clearance company like Abacus.

2 Some of the house clearance contents may have resale value. Common items with resale value include antiques, precious metals, jewellery, collectables and artwork. We'll give you an allowance for these and deduct it against the cost of the clearance.

3 If the majority of your house clearance items are valuable and this value exceeds the clearance costs, we’ll give you the difference (either in cash or cheque).

4 And finally, where the contents of your property have been valued for probate, this value can also be deducted from the cost of your house clearance. No matter which service you need, we can help.

Using The Tips And Advice Given On Antique Road-Shows

One of the most popular TV programmes is without a doubt The Antiques Road-show, this programme and programmes like it are relying on the increasing interest by the public into the world of antiques. Some programmes give advice on the particular value of antiques and are an excellent way of getting an experts knowledge on what you believe to be an antique.

One of the problems if you are new to the world of antiques is knowing if what your Aunt left you in her will is an antique or is merely just an old item that has gathered dust for many years and which cost but a few pennies’s when bought new. While the majority of people hold nothing but junk, there are some that do surprise the experts by having an antique of some exceptional value on their sideboard at home.

There are those that have taken their items along to their local antiques road-show and have found that while their precious items aren’t quite antiques, they are of some value while a few exceptionally lucky and very surprised people have thought their items of some value only to be shocked to find that they have been worth thousands of pounds.

While not everyone is lucky enough to live in an area where the antiques road-show is available by visiting they can still make good use of the excellent advice and information that the show has to offer.

Very often you can watch a programme such as this and are shocked to realise that the pretty little ornament resting precariously on the wobbly shelf bears a remarkable resemblance to what’s on TV. This has led them to getting their own evaluation and then their start into the world of antiques and collecting.

Not only can the antique road-shows give you an insight into the items that you already have in your possession but can also give you an insight into the items which you could start collecting if you are going into collecting in order to make a profit some years down the road. When it comes to antiques there are some that are more collection worthy than others and so of course these are the ones that you should aim to start collecting.

A novice will have very little to go on and some will be led into collecting an item simply because that item has beauty, it is not only the items of beauty that are classed as antique and are valuable. There are an awful lot of antiques that could be only be classed as being horrendous to look at and it is usually these that are the most priceless and collectable.

So take the advice of specialist and make the most of free advice that TV shows can give, they can be useful and are full of hints, tips and should be considered as essential TV for those who have any interest at all in the world of antiques and want to get started or improve their knowledge.
