Whether you’re moving to a new house, cleaning out a relative’s estate, or have many unwanted items, a junk removal service can streamline the process. Junk hauling companies provide efficient removal services and typically charge by the hour or truckload. Here are some answers to common junk removal questions before you schedule.

A Brief Guide to Junk Removal

What types of items do hauling services remove?

It varies among companies; however, most junk hauling services remove large and small appliances, pieces of furniture, HVAC units, office equipment, and construction debris. They typically provide estate and storage unit junk removal services too. Some companies also buy unwanted antiques from clients.

Will everything get thrown out?

Talk to your chosen junk removal service about their removal policy for recyclable items and ask whether they work with local nonprofits to donate furniture, equipment, and other unwanted products in good condition. You may also want to sell to local consignment and pawn shops, or put certain pieces up for auction online.

Do you have to do any heavy lifting?

No. Junk hauling company team members provide all manual labor services. You’ll discuss your project in detail, such as an attic, basement, or estate job, to determine how many technicians you need for a streamlined removal.

Can you get garbage and junk items removed?

Many junk hauling companies offer trash as well as item removal, which can include removing water and fire-damaged belongings. If you have atypical trash to dispose of, such as old motor oil and solvents, take the liquids to the local hazardous disposal facilities yourself. Most junk and garbage removal companies do not deal with hazardous waste.
