Family homes in Turnhout and the Kempen
Outside the ring, Turnhout and the surrounding Kempen are a landscape of detached and semi-detached homes with a garage, an attic and a garden shed, often on a generous plot. A clearance there goes quickly once the volume is clear, because the truck can stand on the drive.
The outbuildings are usually the surprise: a garage that has not held a car for years, an attic of boxes, a shed of garden tools. Photograph them all; see cellar, attic and garage clearance.
Flats around the Grote Markt
Around the Grote Markt and in the shopping streets, homes are more often flats above shops, with a narrow staircase or a small lift. The loading bay is essential there, and the city places the signs itself once you have booked the spaces online.
For a flat, also arrange the stairwell and the storage with the owner or syndic; see apartment clearance.
What does a house clearance in Turnhout cost?
The guide price is €900 to €2,500 for a whole home and €250 to €600 for one full space. A large family home with a full garage, attic and shed sits higher than a flat in the centre.
You receive a fixed price from photos; see house clearance prices. For the city to the west, see house clearance in Antwerp.
