Common household and project junk is often straightforward. Heavy, refrigerated, regulated or contaminated material needs advance review.Find your Junk Code →
01
Furniture and household items
Common requests include couches, chairs, tables, dressers, shelving, mattresses, bed frames, rugs, boxes, toys, clothing and general household clutter. Show stained, wet, damaged or pest-affected items before the appointment because handling requirements can change.
02
Appliances and electronics
Washers, dryers, ranges, dishwashers and small appliances are often removable when safely disconnected. Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and other cooling equipment may require a refrigerant-handling fee or special disposal path. Ask before including televisions, monitors, batteries or large electronics.
03
Garage, yard and outdoor material
Bicycles, tools, grills, lawn furniture, bagged yard debris, branches and non-hazardous garage contents may be accepted depending on the market. Fuel, oil, propane, pesticides, chemicals and batteries must be separated and disclosed.
04
Renovation and demolition debris
Wood, cabinets, fixtures, flooring, drywall and other project debris may be accepted when the material, volume and weight are known. Concrete, soil, roofing, plaster and tile can require weight-based limits. Suspected asbestos or contaminated debris needs a specialized path.
05
Commercial and property-cleanout items
Office furniture, shelving, displays, packaging, storage contents and rental-turnover debris may be included in one-time or recurring service. Property managers and businesses should identify loading rules, elevator access, certificates, billing contacts and material restrictions.
06
Items that need a clear yes first
Pianos, safes, hot tubs, sheds, exercise equipment, large machinery, tires, refrigerated appliances, dense debris and pest-affected items can require extra labor, equipment, fees or a different provider. Send photos, dimensions and access details before scheduling.
07
Hazardous and regulated material
Explosives, ammunition, unknown chemicals, medical waste, needles, human waste, asbestos-containing material, liquid paint, fuel and other hazardous material are not ordinary junk. Do not mix them into bags or piles. Contact the appropriate local hazardous-waste or remediation service when required.
SERVICE QUESTIONS
Show the provider everything—especially the unusual items. FAQs
Can providers take paint or chemicals?+
Do not assume so. Liquid paint, solvents, pesticides, fuel and unknown chemicals often require a local hazardous-waste program or specialized provider.
Can a refrigerator be removed?+
Often, when it is empty, accessible and safely disconnected. Refrigerant-containing equipment may have a special disposal fee or market-specific handling rule.
What about concrete or dirt?+
Dense debris may be accepted only in limited quantities or priced by weight. Share the material, pile dimensions and access before booking.
What if I am not sure what an item contains?+
Do not open, move or conceal a questionable container. Photograph labels from a safe distance and ask the local provider or proper disposal authority before including it.
