What not to do after a parent dies?

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

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.
Does insurance cover an estate cleanout?

Who is responsible for cleaning out an apartment after a death?
