Junk Removal FAQs

Junk removal is the process of collecting and properly disposing of unwanted items, debris, or clutter from residential or commercial properties. We haul away everything from old furniture and appliances to construction debris and yard waste. Our goal is to provide a clean, clutter-free environment with minimal effort on your part.

We remove almost any non-hazardous junk, including:

  • Furniture (couches, mattresses, tables)
  • Appliances (fridges, washers, stoves)
  • Electronics (TVs, monitors, e-waste)
  • Yard debris
  • Hot tubs and spas
  • Construction materials (wood, drywall, tiles)
  • Office cleanouts
  • Bulk trash
  • Garage and attic junk
  • Foreclosure and estate cleanouts

We do not take hazardous waste, paint, chemicals, or biohazards.
