Such cleaning services include, for example; clearing property interiors, outhouses and garages of unwanted items such as furniture, floor coverings and white goods; de-infestation works such as fleas/bed bugs and vermin; needle searches; clearing gardens of unwanted items.
Additionally the contractor may also be required to undertake other similar services from time to time, for example clearing and environmental cleaning of properties following evictions.
