Our estates service is built for the needs of solicitors, accountants and other professionals dealing with estates and property contents. Whatever the circumstances and requirements of the client, we are here to help.

Our Services

PROBATE VALUATIONS

We are able to provide contents valuations across the entire property, from specialist single items, to jewellery collections, motor vehicles, furniture and general household effects, satisfying HMRC regulations for inheritance tax purposes.

HOUSE CLEARANCE

We are specialists in clearing estates, with our own in-house network of removal depots and secure storage where required. We offer full and part clearances of property, taking the hassle out of clearing properties for the client. We approach all clearances sympathetically and professionally, with a short turnaround time to ensure the process is not drawn-out for the client.

We can provide a service for as much or as little as you require. You can find more details on house clearance services here.

Our respected auction houses, David Duggleby Auctioneers and Duggleby Stephenson of York hold regular auctions across 20 various departments. We also hold regular single owner auctions for large, specialist collections.

Our team of valuers, cataloguers, marketers and auctioneers ensure that our clients items go in the best auction to achieve the highest price and ensure that they are showcased to the highest standard.
