Who We Help
-
Many families are balancing full-time work, children, and ageing relatives. When a property becomes empty, often at a difficult time, dealing with its contents is an additional emotional and logistical strain. Martlet acts as a trusted partner on site, making a full inventory of what is in the house so you can view it remotely and decide what to do with it from the comfort of your own home.
-
For individuals acting under a Lasting Power of Attorney, particularly when someone is moving into care, we provide a practical and respectful way to understand and manage household contents without unnecessary stress.

It can be difficult to assess what is held across an entire home and what you need to take with you. Our inventory service allows you to review everything clearly, helping you decide what to keep, pass on, donate, or dispose elsewhere.
At Martlet, we support anyone. This could be individuals or families navigating major life changes (particularly bereavement or moves into care) and the practical challenges that come with them. Alternatively, it may be professionals such as probate solicitors or executors needing to process a vacant property. When a home becomes empty, the task of dealing with its contents can feel overwhelming and immensely time consuming. Our role is to ease the burden, enabling you to see the home contents remotely via our app, so you can make decisions and share those contents with as many people as you like, and take your time deciding what best to do with them without needing to be on-premises to do so.
How Martlet Helps
We create a full inventory of the property including any garden shed and outbuildings, documenting everything from everyday items to valuable possessions. Each item is photographed, categorised, and uploaded to a secure, museum-grade, online inventory system, allowing you to review contents remotely and at your own pace. You can have an editorial function or can share a read-only function with your wider community, depending on how much control you wish people to have.
By creating a clear, accurate inventory that can be accessed remotely, Martlet allows families and professionals to review a property’s contents from anywhere in the world, saving significant travel time and money. This makes it easier to understand what is held as a whole, for families to make informed decisions together about what to keep, distribute, donate, or dispose of, and to enable you to focus only on what truly requires your involvement, leaving us to take care of the rest.
When you do visit the property, you only need to deal with what cannot be handled on your behalf, making your time very well spent.
