Junk removal

The short version

How this one works

Most households pay to move at least one thing they should have thrown away. Book a junk run on the same day as the move and we take it straight from the kerb to the transfer station, with the weight ticket to prove where it went.

  • Loading from anywhere on the property, not just the kerb
  • Sorting into donation, recycling, e-waste and landfill
  • Donation receipts for anything a charity accepts

Step by step

What happens, in order

  1. 01

    Photograph the pile

    Send two photos and we size the truck fraction before we come out.

  2. 02

    Sort on site

    Donation and recycling are separated on the driveway, not at the tip.

  3. 03

    Haul and document

    Everything is weighed. You get the ticket and the donation receipts by email.

Questions

About junk removal

No. Those are household hazardous waste and must go to a county collection site. We will tell you which one is nearest and what their hours are.

Yes, and we give you the receipt. Furniture in good condition, working appliances and unopened household goods all get offered to a charity first.

Demolition is quoted separately after a look. A shed usually needs a half day and two people with tools.

For anything under a full truck, usually yes, and you do not need a street permit for a skip. Above that a skip often wins.

Same-day moves

Lease fell through on a Tuesday?

We hold two crews back every weekday for same-day and next-day work. Call before 11:00 am and there is a good chance we can be at your door by two.

Same-day slots are first come, first served and depend on the board.
