Mine (two months ago) said that's exactly what they do. I half got the impression they would quote and then later deduct the value of anything of worth.
I'm so naïve. They actually meant the original quote, derived from a visit to the property with me, already included a deduction for anything they thought had value.
Of course, the actual visit involved the usual tooth sucking that is endemic to this sort of transaction, and "that's not another fridge is it, ooh, it'll cost us hundreds to get rid of that" type comments.
In our case there WAS nothing of value anyway, as both the charity and the family had removed stuff already.
