We would like to thank Jeffery Avery and Associates, and in particular Jeff Avery for the professional manner in which they conducted our recent house clearance.
They cleared my mother-in-law’s house following her death and in all our dealings with them during the process they were nothing but helpful.

The majority of our work is by recommendation, and we have been carrying out probate valuation work and house clearances in Ilford for many years. By reputation, and as a local company, we are regularly instructed by solicitors, executors and private clients to carry out all types of probate valuations and house clearance.
After valuing the contents and chattels of an estate for probate purposes, we are able to clear the house of furniture, personal effects and all residual contents, and arrange for items to be sent to auction, delivered to a location of your choice, donated to charity, recycled, or where necessary, disposed of, leaving it ready for sale or transfer to a landlord.
We also carry out house clearances in circumstances where there is no probate valuation involved.
We specialise in clearing large heavily furnished, cluttered or neglected properties possibly the result of ill health or compulsive hoarding (OCD). After receiving your instruction we can clear your property quickly and methodically, and during the process retain any personal items, documents or concealed valuables for your examination. Our experienced staff will make the whole process easy and stress free, even if you are organising the clearance from another part of the country or overseas.
We provide our own closed vehicles, (contents not visible externally, so as to ensure privacy) to clear away all household contents. Parking permits are arranged and included in all our quotes. Our aim is to assist you fully by taking care of the entire job from start to finish.

Ilford is a district of the London Borough of Redbridge. It is a suburban development situated 9.1 miles (14.6 km) east north-east of Charing Cross.
The name is first recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Ilefort and means ford over the Hyle; an old name for the River Roding that means "trickling stream".
The only complete skull of a Mammoth discovered in the United Kingdom was unearthed in 1860 at the site where Boots the Chemist now stands in the High Road; the skull can now be seen in the Natural History Museum.
Redevelopment has destroyed much of the evidence for early Ilford, but the oldest evidence for human occupation is the 1st and 2nd century BC Iron Age earthwork known as Uphall Camp. This was situated between the Roding and Ilford Lane and is recorded in 18th century plans. Roman finds have also been made in the vicinity. A nearby mound called Lavender Mount existed into the 1960s, when it was removed during building work at Howards chemical works. Excavation has shown that the latter may have been a 16th century 'beacon-mound'.
Ilford straddled the important road from London to Colchester, again likely to be of Roman origin, and also (in historic times) was the main crossing point of the marshes, providing the only land access from London to Barking and Tilbury. Barking was the site of Barking Abbey, an important Christian centre from 666AD, and a major fishing port from the Middle Ages. Tilbury achieved importance in the Tudor era as a fort, and later as a port. The Middlesex and Essex Turnpike Trust controlled and maintained this road from 1721. The River Roding was also made navigable for barges as far as Ilford Bridge from 1737.
A number of major businesses have been founded in the town, including the eponymous photographic film and chemicals manufacturer Ilford Photo. This was founded in 1879 by Alfred H. Harman, a photographer from Peckham, who established the business in a house in Cranbook Road making gelatino-bromide 'dry' plates.
