What does an estate clearance in Gothenburg cost? (2026 price guide)
Concrete guide prices for estate clearance, what drives the price and how you can lower the cost through valuation of belongings.
An estate clearance in Gothenburg usually costs between SEK 3,000 and 15,000 depending on the type and size of the home. A small townhouse sits at the lower end, a villa with a garage and attic at the upper end. The price is always fixed after a free inspection, so you know exactly what you will pay before the work starts.
This guide gives you concrete guide prices for different property types, what pushes the price up or down, and how you can lower the cost through valuation and resale of belongings. Updated for 2026.

What affects the price
What pushes the price up or down?
Four factors decide where in the range your price lands:
- Volume. The amount of contents matters more than square metres – a sparsely furnished villa can cost less than a packed two-room flat.
- Access. Floor, lift, distance to the truck and any narrow stairwells or attic ladders affect the time needed and therefore the price.
- Scope. Should the garage, attic, basement and garden be included, or just the main living areas?
- Move-out cleaning. If the home should be left cleaned and ready for viewing, that is added as a separate, clearly stated price.

RUT deduction
Does the RUT deduction apply to estates?
The Swedish RUT deduction can in some cases apply to move-out cleaning as part of an estate clearance, but the rules for estates are special and limited – as a rule the deduction only applies in the year of death, and it is the estate rather than an individual heir that applies.
We always show the price both with and without the deduction in the quote, but for the formal side and your specific situation we refer you to the Swedish Tax Agency.
Lowering the cost
How to lower the cost – valuation and resale
An estate often contains items with a resale value: antiques, design furniture, art, tools, collectables or newer white goods and electronics. Before the clearance we set such items aside and you choose whether they should be sold, valued separately or kept.
If the contents have a larger combined value it can be offset against the cost of the clearance, which in practice lowers the final price. It costs nothing to ask – just mention if you suspect there are valuable items when you request a quote, and we will pay extra attention to it at the inspection. Read more about the whole process in our article on what happens to the items after a clearance.
Step by step
From estate inventory to a fixed price
As a rule the estate inventory (bouppteckning) should be complete before the contents are distributed and the home is cleared, since it establishes the assets. We can still come for a free inspection beforehand, so you have a price basis to plan with.
After the inspection you get a written, fixed quote. The price stays fixed regardless of how long the work actually takes – if something unexpected comes up we always contact you before proceeding. Read our complete guide for next of kin for the whole process from inventory to cleaning.
