Contracted this company to clear the flat of my deceased mother. Two young guys cleared EVERYTHING out of the rented property, including furniture, carpets, ornaments, white goods and food/household products, politely, efficiently, and respectfully. Excellent service.

The guys from Northern House Clearance have just cleared a house for me in Scotland. The house was packed not only with a lifetimes worth of memories, but all the clutter that goes with it. Within 2 days it was emptied down to the floorboards. A great job from a good team of lads. Highly recommended.

An excellent 5 star service. Firstly the compassion shown due to the circumstances which resulted in having to use their services, not just on the phone but by the team who arrived, on time, to perform the job. Above all a friendly attitude goes a long way in stressful times. Professional from the start to the end of the day and due to the amount of clutter a second day was needed. I could not believe how much was cleared in just one day, it was as if the clutter had it's own clutter to clear. Hope that I never need to use them again, but if I have to clear another property they will be the only people that I call. Highly recommend them. G.Hatton. Cheshire.

The team arrived bang on time and began work immediately. They continued for five solid days and completed the entire clearance of my late uncles house, which was a case of extreme hoarding over many decades. They even removed carpets, curtains and swept up so the house was ready for sale. They were exeptionally hard working, polite and charged a reasonable price for this incredibly difficult job. Terrific service, absolutely recommended.

Antique Book Found During Derby House Clearance

Antique House Clearance – We buy antiques in Northern England & Scotland

16 books were discovered in a house clearance and titles include The Holy Bible and the 1842 London Almanac. Though they might be minuscule, the largest is 1 1/2 inches and the smallest is just 1/8th of an inch tall, each of the books contain every word that the full-size version contains.

The books were discovered by Bamfords Auctioneers in Derbyshire, who will put the up for sale next week. The books had been kept by one family for years. Experts believe they could fetch up to £2,000.

The definition of a tiny tome is a book which is no more than three inches in height, width of thickness, says The Miniature Book Society. The books gained popularity in the 19th Century as they were light and easy to conceal, although the earliest book dates to 1475.

Auctioneer Steven Iredale commented on the collection’s rarity in The Daily Mail: “Collections like these tend to belong to staunch book collectors. I have only really read about them in the past and have never come across them before. They can sell for thousands of pounds and we have a lot of interest.”

Other titles include the Bijou Picture of London, from 1810, which comprises 31 pages of engravings of the city’s landmarks and a second edition for Paris from 1812. The Bible contains 376 pages, engraved plates and a magnifying glass in a pocket.
