An older city with a lot of history
Independence is best known as Harry S. Truman's hometown and as a starting point for the old westward trails. Many of its neighborhoods have been around for a long time. Near the historic Square and in the surrounding blocks, homes are older, with full basements, detached garages, and attics. Elsewhere, mid-century ranches and split-levels line quiet streets. Many Independence requests come from families clearing a parent's or grandparent's home, or from landlords resetting a rental between tenants.

Estate and family-home cleanouts
Clearing a home that has been in the family for decades is emotional, and it's easy to rush. Before pickup day, walk through each room with whoever is making decisions. Pull out photos, documents, jewelry, and keepsakes, and label what stays. Check drawers, closets, and boxes; people often find important papers tucked away in older homes. Then send us a room-by-room overview with photos. That keeps the job focused and avoids mistakes.
Heavy, older furniture
Older solid-wood furniture is often much heavier than it looks: china hutches, buffets, dressers with mirrors, and console pianos or organs. Tell us about these pieces specifically, with approximate sizes, which floor they're on, and how the stairs are laid out. A piano or organ needs its own mention so we can confirm whether and how it can be included.
