There can be a lot of emotion around clearing sentimental items, which I understand first hand. I have lots of useful and creative ideas to help the process.
With sustainability and the environment deep rooted in my ethos, I aim to reuse, repurpose and donate items where possible.

Customer feedback
I wanted to write a review after availing of the services with Kindred Sorting recently. I was selling a home I inherited last year that had been a rental let for a long time while my Aunt was alive. I lived a distance away and was attracted to this service for 2 reasons.
Firstly, that Anne was able to organise the sorting and removal of all items in the home and shed without me needing to be there throughout the process. Secondly, that this would be done sustainably which was extremely important to me.
Not only did Anne meet these two expectations she greatly exceeded them. She was so professional and organised. She went through the whole house and shed and sent me a video so I could be clear about anything I wanted to keep. She outlined where items could be processed, sold or re used.
Anne dealt with all removals and where ads were placed to sell or give away items, she handled all of that. Anything that could be recycled and avoid going to landfill was processed accordingly. She let me know where people took items for free who needed them, a lovely touch I appreciated.
At the end Anne was clear with the time everything took for billing and itemised where everything went and their sustainable credentials. In a week, the whole process was completed and allowed me to meet my deadline with the sale of the property.
I would most definitely recommend Kindred Sorting for its efficiency and how it took so much pressure off an otherwise stressful event. The pre and post video was great. The itemised email at the end showing how and where everything went was so helpful. Thank you to Anne and her team for a job well done.

Anne helped me clear rooms in my house when my father passed away and my mother was hospitalised a few days later. While grieving the loss of my dad and visiting my mum everyday my house was last on the list of priorities and everything quickly backed up. I found it very overwhelming and couldn’t seem to tackle all the jobs that needed to be done. I was also embarrassed and apprehensive about showing someone my messy house.
Anne was so kind and non judgmental. I think because she had been through something similar, she knows that awful embarrassing feeling. We quickly got to work. While I decided on what could be thrown out, Anne was busy sorting my “rubbish”, into recycling and being super mindful of its disposal.
My room hasn’t looked so good in a very long time. I have been sleeping so much better as a result.
I can’t recommend Anne enough. Whether it’s clearing a loved one’s house or your own, she’s just amazing. I was so hesitant about getting her or anyone in to help but it was the best idea, I’m so glad I did it.
Thanks so much Anne

Transformational is how I would describe Kindred Sorting’s services. I was left with a studio full of the tools of my husband’s livelihood when he died suddenly at age 50. Finding a way to sift through instruments, musical scores, hard drives and obscene amounts of cables was beyond me — I didn’t know where to start.
Thankfully, Anne did.
With equal parts compassion and pragmatism, she steered me through the sorting process. You never expect to go through your other half’s life’s work, but with Anne at the helm, the time flew and things seemed to disappear like magic. I felt supported through the entire process and will be eternally grateful to her. The studio space has been transformed for me and our kids, yet it still retains the essence of their dad.
Anne brings positive energy and genuine care to everything she does. She’s clued in to what can be recycled and donated — and she definitely got more than she bargained for with the amount of cables and adapters we unearthed. She made light work of it. When she drove off with a brim-full boot, it felt like a weight had lifted.
Kindred Sorting has done me a great service.
