Clearing your space after an abusive relationship isn’t just tidying — it’s reclaiming your life.
It’s removing the last physical reminders of someone who drained you, controlled you, or left chaos where peace should have been.
And when you’re selling up and moving on, it becomes even more important. You can’t carry old ghosts into a new chapter.

There’s nothing dramatic about wanting your home back.
There’s nothing petty about needing your space clean, safe, and yours again.
And there’s definitely nothing wrong with removing someone’s belongings when they’ve had every chance to collect them — especially when they’re taking up room, blocking the sale, or keeping you stuck.

This is not “being difficult.” It’s a legal, practical, and emotional necessity:

• You have a right to prepare your home for sale.
• You have a right to remove abandoned belongings with proper notice.
• You have a right to live in a space that isn’t a storage unit for your ex’s clutter or your past pain.
• You have a right to move forward without their mess holding you back.

Clearing the space is part of the healing.
It’s part of closing the chapter.
It’s part of saying: My home belongs to me again.

And when you’ve survived abuse, reclaiming your environment isn’t just a chore — it’s a declaration:

“This is my life now. And I’m taking it back — every room, every drawer, every corner.”
