Can a cleanout be done while the family lives far away?

Yes. Many families work from photos, video calls and phone decisions. Ask the team about keys, access and one point of contact. A relative or a friend nearby can meet the crew if you prefer.

Can the team find and keep valuables?

Teams usually check drawers, closets and pockets for cash, jewelry and papers and set them aside for the family. Tell the crew what to look for, and ask how found items will be returned to you.
