Apartment clearance in Mons: our approach
Inside the old ring of Mons, many historic houses have been divided into flats and student rooms for UMONS and the local colleges, so move-outs tend to cluster at the end of the academic year. These homes often combine sloping cobbled streets, narrow stairs and no lift. We dismantle furniture on site, protect the common areas and plan the truck's spot with the city's permit, which is essential around the Grand-Place and the Belfry. Outside the centre, in Jemappes, Ghlin or Hyon, flats in newer blocks are easier to reach. Furniture in good condition is donated to social-economy organisations rather than thrown away.
Clearing an apartment in Mons is mostly about the building: booking the lift, protecting the stairwell, remembering the private cellar. We settle these details with you or the building manager first, then the crew empties the flat within the timeframe stated on the quote.
Clearing an apartment in Mons: building, lift and managing agent
Inside the ring of Mons, the flat to be cleared often occupies one floor of an old house on the sloping cobbled streets around the Belfry or Grand-Place: a narrow staircase, sometimes spiral, and no lift. We dismantle furniture in the room and carry it down in parts, protecting the treads and banister. Parking a truck requires a temporary public-road occupation permit from the City, with no-parking signs; in the centre we apply early, and we avoid the Doudou weekend. Many UMONS student rooms and studios lie around the centre, often in subdivided houses. Outside the boulevards, newer blocks have a lift, which we book with the property manager. The allocated cellar or attic is cleared at the same time, and the common areas are left clean.
Clearing a flat in Mons: intra-muros cobbles and the Borinage
Between the truck and the front door, the cobbles inside the old ring set the pace. Once the City has granted the temporary occupation permit, trolleys built for cobblestones link the flat to the vehicle, on streets climbing towards the Belfry and the Grand-Place. Heavy furniture comes down in parts, then travels strapped to those trolleys rather than carried at arm's length.
To the west, Jemappes, Cuesmes and Flénu still bear the mark of the Borinage coalfield: rows of workers' houses with well-stocked cellars, where an upstairs home is cleared through a narrow corridor. To the north and east, Ghlin, Nimy, Havré or Saint-Symphorien have newer houses with gardens and garages, and the vehicle gets close easily. Obourg, Maisières and Saint-Denis, to the north-east, complete the map. The Hygea recyparcs are for households only; with us, anything reusable goes to the social economy and the rest to suitable recycling channels.
