Clearing Out a Student Room in Leuven
We clear out dorm rooms, student rooms, and entire student houses in Leuven between tenants: any furniture, mattresses, boxes, and anything else left in the basement or the shared kitchen. We give usable items a second life, and we properly dispose of the rest. You’ll receive a fixed price upfront.
Leuven Day
Every Wednesday in Leuven
On Wednesdays, we schedule all our jobs in Leuven and the surrounding area back-to-back. This keeps our prices competitive, even if you need several student rooms cleared out.
No travel expenses
On Wednesdays, you simply pay our standard rates in Leuven and the surrounding area. There are no additional charges for the ride.
Book by Monday at the latest
Then we can plan Wednesday well. Usually, photos are enough to determine the price. If we do need to come take a look, we'll do that on Wednesday as well.
Would you prefer a different day?
That's possible. In that case, we charge a flat call-out fee of €150 per trip (excl. VAT). Rush service within 48 hours is also available, with a 30% surcharge.
For Landlords
Empty Room Between Two Tenants
One student is moving out, and the next one will be moving in soon. We’ll clear out whatever’s left behind so you can rent out the room again.
Abandoned furniture and mattresses
A mattress, a desk, a closet, or a few boxes: we’ll take whatever the previous tenant left behind, even the large items.
Request a quote →Several rooms on a single Wednesday
Do you have multiple units, either in a single building or spread out across Leuven? We’ll schedule them one after another on the same Wednesday.
View prices →An entire student house
All the rooms, the shared kitchen, the basement, and the attic: we’ll clear out the entire house—for example, in preparation for a renovation or a sale.
More about home cleanouts →A student's belongings?
In principle, anything a student leaves behind remains the student's property. We will only take it with us if you confirm that it is okay to do so.
Read: What are your rights as a landlord? →Basement or bike shed full
Is it just the storage area in the student housing that's full? Even then, we'll come—without requiring you to empty your rooms.
More about basement cleanouts →Invoice with VAT
You will receive a fixed price upfront and an invoice with VAT afterward. A certificate confirming proper processing is available upon request, which is useful if you need to document the costs for a student.

Student Rooms in Leuven: What We Keep in Mind
Many rooms are located upstairs in old houses on narrow streets. We take this into account when determining the price you receive in advance.
Narrow staircases
Whenever possible, we use a ladder lift (up to €150 per hour). If that’s not possible, we’ll carry everything up the stairs: an additional €20 per floor.
Parking right outside the door
Our truck needs to be parked close to the door. If it’s more than 10 meters away, there will be an additional charge of €115. If a temporary parking ban is required, please request it from the city or municipality. We’ll let you know how much space we need.
Where we work on Wednesdays
Leuven, including Heverlee, Kessel-Lo, Wilsele, and Wijgmaal, as well as the municipalities surrounding Leuven: Herent, Kortenberg, Bertem, Oud-Heverlee, Bierbeek, Lubbeek, Holsbeek, and Rotselaar. Do you live a little farther away? Feel free to ask.
How it works
Here's how we'll clear out your dorm room
1
Send photos
For any room that needs to be vacated, as well as the basement or common areas, please contact us via WhatsApp or our quote form. For large student houses, we’ll come take a look first—on a Wednesday.
2
You get a price
Usually within 2 hours via WhatsApp. Includes handling, transportation, and disposal fees—no surprises later.
3
We clear it out
On Wednesday. You don't need to be there—a key or code is all that's needed. You'll get the key back afterward, as agreed.
4
Sorting and Disposal
Items that are still usable go to thrift stores or social organizations; the rest goes to certified processing facilities. After that, the room is empty and ready for cleaning and the check-out inspection.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about clearing out student rooms in Leuven
How much does it cost to clear out a student room in Leuven?
That depends on how much is left. Send photos of each room, and you’ll receive a fixed price upfront. As a rough estimate: a studio starts at €300, and part of a household’s contents (about half a truckload) starts at €480, excluding VAT. On Wednesdays, there’s no additional travel fee.
Can you clear out multiple rooms on the same day?
Yes. On Wednesdays, we schedule all our jobs in Leuven and the surrounding area back-to-back, so that includes several student rooms. Let us know in advance how many rooms there are and where they are located.
A student left some belongings behind. Can I throw them away?
It’s not that simple. In principle, whatever a student leaves behind remains the student’s property. We’ll only take it with us once you confirm that it’s okay to do so. You can read about the best way to handle this in our article for landlords.
Do I need to be there?
No. We use a key or a code, and return the key afterward as agreed.
Why on Wednesday?
On Wednesdays, we schedule all our jobs in Leuven and the surrounding area back-to-back. That way, you won’t have to pay any travel fees on that day.
Would another day work?
Yes. In that case, we charge a flat travel fee of €150 per trip, excluding VAT. For rush orders within 48 hours, there is a 30% surcharge.
As a student, can I also have my room cleared out?
Yes. The same prices and the same Wednesday apply to you as well. Would you like to drop off as much as possible yourself first? Our checklist for your last week in your student room explains how that works in Leuven.
What happens to the items?
We donate usable furniture and household goods to thrift stores or social organizations. We sort the rest and send it to certified processing facilities. We are a registered waste hauler with OVAM (No. 178887).
