RESIDENTIAL JUNK REMOVAL

Plan a household junk removal pickup.

One bulky item or a whole-home cleanout. Tell us what needs to go.

On this page 7 topics

Show us what needs to go

List each room or outdoor area to clear. Send wide photos, the address and access details so the crew can plan enough time and truck space.

Set aside what stays

Set aside valuables, documents, medications, keys, photos and keepsakes. Clearly mark anything staying; the crew needs you to decide what goes.

Tell us about access

Mention stairs, elevators, narrow doors, long carries and parking limits. Flag pianos, safes and other heavy items so the crew can plan safely.

Flag restricted items

Paint, chemicals, fuel, cylinders, biohazards and suspected asbestos need advance review and may require specialist disposal. Keep them separate and ask before including them.

Plan the truck space

The truck space and crew should fit your items, whether that is one couch or a full cleanout. A smaller load should not need a full-load price.

Approve the price first

Photos help with a rough range. Get a free onsite estimate and approve the final price before loading. Weight, access, labor and special disposal can affect the price.

Where we work

Portland–Vancouver service is available through JunkPDX. Other markets will open only after local coverage is ready.

PLAN YOUR PROJECT

Choose a useful scope for your home.

You do not need to clear the entire house to get started. A pickup can focus on settled decisions: the furniture you no longer need, an accessible garage pile or the contents of a specific room.

Everyday household pickup

Combine approved furniture, boxes of unwanted household items and other accepted materials in one clear list. Include items in the garage or yard if they are part of the same request.

Best starting point: photos of each group and a list of unusually heavy or awkward pieces.

Garage or basement reset

Separate what stays before calling the entire room a cleanout. Storage areas often contain tools, keepsakes and materials that need individual decisions.

Best starting point: a marked removal area, access photos and disclosure of unknown containers.

Move-out or downsizing

Coordinate removal after you decide what moves with you. Keep the moving inventory distinct so the hauling crew is not asked to choose between disposal and relocation.

Best starting point: a room list, a decision-maker and a practical handoff with the moving schedule.

What changes the estimate?

Truck space
Standard household pricing follows the space used, with the actual collection assessed onsite.
Labor and access
Several floors, disassembly and long carrying routes can change the estimate even for a modest pile.
Special items
Disclose dense, unusual or restricted materials before booking so the visit can be planned appropriately.
Understand pricing before pickup

Your preparation checklist

  1. Sort belongings into keep, remove and undecided groups.
  2. Retrieve documents, keys, photos and personal items from removal furniture.
  3. Photograph every approved pile rather than only the largest one.
  4. Arrange access and identify who can approve the estimate.
  5. Review the cleared areas with the crew and confirm what remains.
Check accepted and restricted items
