Booking and quotes
Fill out the quote form or call us. Tell us what needs to go, roughly how much there is, where it is and your ZIP code. Photos help a lot.
Yes. Getting a quote is free and you don’t have to book.
Usually, yes. Clear photos of the items and the space let us give you an accurate price. For very large jobs we may ask a few more questions first.
Sometimes, depending on our schedule and the size of the job. Call us if you need something gone quickly. It’s the fastest way to check.
Pricing
It depends on the job. Based on public prices we checked in October 2026, a single bulky item in the Tacoma area often costs about $75 to $200, and a full truckload about $550 to $1,100. Those are market ranges, not our prices. See our services page for more.
The amount of stuff, how much truck space it takes, its weight, how easy it is to reach, and whether anything needs special disposal.
Not if the job matches what you described. If there’s a lot more or a lot less than expected, we’ll talk to you about it before doing any extra work.
Some items, like refrigerators and freezers, can have extra disposal or recycling fees. We’ll include them in your quote.
What we take
Most household and business junk: furniture, mattresses, appliances, electronics, boxes, yard waste and construction debris.
Hazardous materials like paint, chemicals, motor oil, fuel, propane tanks, pesticides and asbestos. Ask if you’re unsure about something.
Yes. Single-item pickups are welcome.
Yes. We do garage, basement, estate, rental and office cleanouts.
Pickup day
No. We take items from inside your home, garage, basement or yard.
It’s best to be there at the start to point out what goes. For curbside items, we can talk through other options.
If something won’t fit through a door, we can take it apart when it’s safe to do so.
Set aside anything you’re keeping, take out valuables and papers, and let us know about stairs, parking or gate codes.
Where your junk goes
When we can. Usable items can go to donation and metal and many appliances to recycling, depending on condition and what local facilities accept.
No. Some items can’t be reused or recycled. Those go to a facility that’s allowed to accept them.
If it matters to you (for example, you’d like a piece donated), tell us when you book and we’ll let you know what’s possible.
