House clearance in Graz: process, costs and what happens to bulky waste
By Team SprintexUpdated on 11.11.20262 min read
We charge for a house clearance by time and weight – the team with van from € 89 per hour, disposal € 0,34 per kg as per the weighbridge ticket. In the calculator, a cellar comes to € 250–420. If you dispose of things yourself, you take bulky waste to the Ressourcenpark Graz (the city's recycling and waste centre) in Sturzgasse.
Whether it is a cellar, an attic or a whole flat after a death in the family: clearing out means sorting, carrying and disposing of things properly. Here is how it works in Graz, both when we do it and when you do it yourself.
How does a house clearance work?
- Request with photos or a video. This lets us estimate working time and amount without coming by.
- Quote within 2 hours (daily 8 am–8 pm) with the estimated working time and amount.
- Clearance on the agreed date. You show us what stays.
- Disposal sorted by material, followed by handover swept clean.
What does it cost?
We charge by time and weight: the team with van € 89 per hour, plus travel (€ 39 flat rate) and disposal € 0,34 per kg as per the weighbridge ticket. Mattresses cost € 25 per item. We do not take fridges or electrical appliances – please hand them in at the Ressourcenpark Graz or to the retailer. You get your fixed price after photos or a short video call.
To give you a feel for the price:
- Cellar or storage room, around 2 hours and 350 kg: € 250–420
- One room, around 4 hours and 950 kg: € 530–900
- Flat with 2–3 rooms, around 8 hours and 2,400 kg: € 1.170–1.960
Doing it yourself: Ressourcenpark Graz
If you dispose of things yourself, you drive to the Ressourcenpark Graz (the city's recycling and waste centre) run by Holding Graz at Sturzgasse 8. According to Holding Graz, it has several areas:
- Free of charge: items that are still usable, such as furniture, textiles and books (re-use), recyclables such as paper, metal and glass, and hazardous waste such as paint, batteries and electrical appliances.
- Subject to a charge: bulky waste, construction rubble, green waste and old tyres. Residents with a registered address in the city of Graz can drop off at a reduced price several times a year after registering (via the "Graz Abfall" app or an online form). Current prices and opening hours are listed on the Holding Graz website.
When is a team worth it?
When you do not have a car with enough space, there are many floors to carry things down, or it has to happen quickly, for example before handing over a flat. Then we clear everything in one appointment, dispose of it and hand over the space swept clean. On request we also take care of the final cleaning afterwards.
You will find more about the service and its prices under house clearance, and an estimate in the price calculator.
