What We Offer

A simple, all-in-one approach for carriage, clearance and entry into auction.

Your Trusted Partner in Clearing and Maximising Value

At Criterion, we understand that house clearance is not just about removing unwanted items; it's about convenience, thoroughness and minimising the impact on your wallet. That's why we offer bespoke house clearance services with a unique feature that sets us apart from the rest – an all-in-one total clearance and disposal service with the option to simply and swiftly sell your valuable items at auction.

Our Commitment

Bespoke House Clearance

Every house is unique, and so are the items within it. Whether you're moving, downsizing, or dealing with the belongings of a loved one through probate, we tailor our services to your specific needs. Our team of experienced professionals ensures that your house clearance is seamless, respectful, and efficient.

Uncovering Hidden Treasures

Our experts meticulously evaluate the items within your property, identifying those with potential value that might have been overlooked by others and making sure you don’t have to worry about losing any hidden treasures!

Sustainability in the local area

Environmental responsibility and commitment to care within our local community is at the heart of what we do. We prioritise eco-friendly practices by recycling, donating to charity, and minimising waste. Our commitment to sustainability ensures that items find new homes and uses, reducing the environmental impact of waste.

The Auction Advantage

What truly sets us apart is our unique auction service. Instead of merely disposing of valuable items, we offer you the opportunity to turn them into assets that can raise funds from auction.

How It Works

Identification: Our experienced appraisers carefully assess your items, leveraging their knowledge to identify valuable lots. We understand that value can be hidden in plain sight, and our local experts ensure nothing goes unnoticed.

Consignment: With your approval, we'll transport these valuable lots to our salerooms for consignment into our auctions, reaching our expansive network of potential buyers. This provides you with access to the widest possible market and the potential to maximise the returns on your items.

Maximise Value: By entering your items into our auctions, you not only help reduce the overall cost of your house clearance but also have the opportunity to discover the true value of your belongings. Your items have the chance to find new homes with buyers who appreciate their worth.

Our Auction Platform

We have a well-established, online auction platform that attracts both local and global buyers. This means that your valuable items have the opportunity to be sold in any of our three salerooms across the UK. Our auction-house and carriage network is nationwide, ensuring that the valuables of your clearance will be seen and bought by the widest audience possible.
