Deceased Estate Rubbish Removal

Deceased estate clearance services are always treated with sensitivity and care, as we ensure that personal items are preserved, rubbish is quickly removed and your deceased estate property is properly prepared for what’s next.

When you lose a loved one the initial shock and grief are often followed by the realisation that there is a lot of work to do. Not only must the funeral be arranged but often a lifetime of accumulated stuff must be dealt with. It can be a completely overwhelming task to take on, especially if you are a family member or friend dealing with feelings of grief and loss.

While things of value can be kept, sold or given to a charity, there are many things that are of such low value they are not worth the effort to store, sell or give away. This can be a difficult undertaking for family members, so let the experienced team at 1300Rubbish do the heavy lifting.

What is the 2-year rule for deceased estate property?

The 2-year rule for deceased estate property relates to inherited property law and Capital Gains Tax (CGT) requirements and extensions. Provided a deceased person’s property was their main residence before they died, and it is sold and settled within 2 years from the date of death, you are granted a full CGT exemption. The ATO notes that the 2-year limit may be extended by exceptional circumstances outside of your own control, but it is important to always check with the outlined criteria.
