Estate Cleanouts in Columbus, Indiana
Settling an estate in Columbus is rarely just logistics — it is family. Ohana Property & Transition Services is based right here in Bartholomew County and has helped families across Columbus clear inherited homes, sort heirlooms, route usable goods to local donation partners, and hand off broom-clean properties to realtors and attorneys on schedule. Olga Ortega founded Ohana after a decade in social work because she saw too many Columbus families left to navigate this stage of life alone.

Estate Cleanouts in Columbus — questions we hear.
What is included in an estate cleanout in Columbus, Indiana?
Our Columbus estate cleanouts include complete removal of furniture, appliances, personal property, and debris. We sort items into keep, donate, sell, and discard categories with the family, coordinate donation pickup for usable goods through local Bartholomew County partners, and route everything else through licensed disposal. Final walkthrough is broom-clean and ready to list.
How much does an estate cleanout cost in Columbus, IN?
Pricing in Columbus depends on home size, volume, and access. Most estate cleanouts range from $1,000 for smaller homes to $3,000+ for larger properties with multiple outbuildings. We send a photo-based estimate before scheduling and confirm the final number on-site before starting work.
How fast can you start an estate cleanout in Columbus?
For most Columbus estate cleanouts we can be on-site within 24 to 48 hours of approval. For probate-coordinated jobs we work directly to the executor or attorney timeline so closings and listing dates are not jeopardized.
Do you work with estate attorneys and executors in Columbus?
Yes. Ohana is bonded, insured, and MBE/WBE certified, which makes us a vendor-ready option for Columbus and Bartholomew County estate attorneys. We provide written scope, photo documentation, and donation receipts on request for estate accounting.
What happens to the items removed from a Columbus estate?
Through the Hearth Project, usable furniture, household goods, clothing, and appliances from Columbus estates are first routed to Indiana nonprofits and families in need. Everything else goes to the Bartholomew County Landfill or appropriate recycling channel. Hazardous and prohibited items are flagged before we arrive.
