Spicers can provide you with accurate, professional valuations for single items, specialist collections, together with whole and partial house contents.
Probate valuations are a speciality of Spicers;
Should you require a full or partial clearance we can arrange that with one of several independent firms of transport specialists that we recommend. Should a longcase clock be bequeathed to a beneficiary in Australia we can arrange that. The normal procedure being the removal of saleable items to the auction room, transportation of non-commercial, but still useable items, to various charities and then the remainder is taken for recycling.
