What is the best way to clean out my parents' home after their death?

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

What not to do after a parent dies?
Do not rush to clear the house, and do not throw anything away before checking for papers, valuables and keepsakes. Do not make large decisions in the first days. Ask for help, and ask an attorney before disposing of anything with legal weight.
