About Glenrothes
Glenrothes was designated as Scotland's second new town in 1948, originally planned to house the workers of the Rothes Colliery — a mine which, in the event, was a costly failure and closed within a decade. The town's plans were quickly redrawn to focus on electronics and light industry, which served it well throughout the 1960s, 70s and 80s when Glenrothes became known as part of Scotland's 'Silicon Glen'. The town is famous for its sculptures — over 130 public artworks dotted around the streets — and its extensive parkland network.

Clearance Work in Glenrothes
Glenrothes is divided into a series of named precincts (Cadham, Pitteuchar, Macedonia, Tanshall, Caskieberran, Stenton, Auchmuty, Woodside, Collydean, etc), each with its own character of post-war planned housing. The town's wide roads and generous parking generally make access for clearance vans straightforward. We regularly work across the whole town and the linked communities of Markinch, Coaltown of Balgonie and Leslie.

"A first-class job. Furniture, carpets, the lot — gone in a day with the place left immaculate. Will absolutely call them again."
"Quick, fair-priced and friendly. They turned a dreaded job into something manageable. The before-and-after was night and day."
"Got three quotes — theirs wasn't the cheapest but felt the most honest, and they delivered on every promise. Worth every penny."
"We've used them twice now — once for my late father's house and again to clear out a property we'd inherited. Reliable, fair, and they leave the place broom-clean."
