What we do
Estate Services, Done With Care
From packing heirlooms to hauling away the last load, we handle every detail of estate clearance so your family doesn't have to.
Everything Under One Roof
Managing a loved one's estate from a distance is overwhelming. Helping Hands offers a complete, coordinated service — one team, one point of contact, and one less thing for your family to worry about.
Service 01
Shipping Valuables
Precious belongings, safely delivered — wherever your family calls home.
Heirlooms, artwork, jewellery, china, and sentimental keepsakes deserve more than a rushed trip to the post office. We carefully assess, wrap, and pack each item using professional-grade materials, then ship it through insured, tracked couriers to any address in Canada or the United States.
We provide you with full tracking information and keep you updated at every step. If an item is too large or fragile for standard shipping, we coordinate with specialized freight carriers to get it there safely.
- Professional packing materials and techniques
- Insured and tracked shipping across Canada and the US
- Freight options for oversized or fragile items
- Full tracking information provided
Service 02
Donations
Giving belongings a second life — and your family peace of mind.
Many items in an estate are too good to discard but not practical to ship. We work with a trusted network of Fraser Valley charities, thrift stores, and community organizations to ensure usable belongings find new homes where they'll be appreciated.
We provide a detailed record of where items were donated, which can be valuable for estate documentation and tax purposes. Every donation is made thoughtfully — we never dump good items in a bin.
- Trusted network of local Fraser Valley charities
- Detailed donation records provided
- Useful for estate documentation and tax purposes
- Thoughtful, respectful handling of all donated items
Service 03
Disposal & Hauling
Responsible removal of what remains — handled with discretion.
Once valuables have been shipped and donations arranged, there's often still a significant volume of items that need to be removed. We handle all disposal and hauling, including furniture, appliances, and general household contents.
We prioritize responsible disposal — recycling where possible and using licensed waste facilities. The goal is always to leave the property completely clear, clean, and ready for whatever comes next.
- Full clearance of furniture, appliances, and household contents
- Responsible recycling and licensed waste disposal
- Property left completely clear and ready
- Coordinated with shipping and donations for efficiency
Service 04
Deep Cleaning
A spotless finish — so the home is ready for what's next.
After the estate has been cleared, we provide a thorough deep clean of the entire property. Our cleaning team works to a high standard, ensuring every room is left spotless — whether the home is being listed for sale, returned to a landlord, or passed on to new owners.
We clean kitchens, bathrooms, floors, windows, and all surfaces. We can also coordinate with real estate agents or property managers to ensure the timing works for your situation.
- Full property deep clean after clearance
- Kitchens, bathrooms, floors, windows, and all surfaces
- Ready for sale, rental, or handover
- Coordination with real estate agents available
