Bonnie J. says, "Walter is a fantastic person to work with. He is enthusiastic, responsive, reliable, responsible, and a great communicator. He helped me out in multiple situations, and I would highly recommend him. I found Walter when I used Thumbtack to look for someone to do junk removal. I reached out to three companies, and Walter was extremely responsive. The first time I hired him (yes, I hired him more than just one time!) was the afternoon following the completion of an estate sale. There were a few very heavy pieces, namely sofa beds in the basement, and some dingy furniture and bedding that I knew would not be taken by charity shops and which I would not be able to sell myself on Marketplace. He brought along another man, and they wrestled these bulky items out of the basement and took them away for me that same day to the dump. A little over a week later, I hired Walter again. I had a lot of medium to large furniture items that I now wanted to donate to Goodwill. Goodwill doesn't do pickups, but would accept many of my items. I had contacted other charity groups, but they were not able to schedule pick-ups of the furniture until 3-5 weeks later, but I needed to get the house emptied sooner. Walter had told me that he would be available whenever I needed. I had to get the house emptied out for cleaning and listing on the market, so I called him again to help me move all of the items I couldn't move in my SUV. Other junk removal companies typically work on a small scale - putting items in the back of a pickup truck or on a trailer. Walter actually has a large box truck. Because I had a lot of items and many of these items were nicer quality, I didn't want any damage to them before donating. His enclosed truck was a fantastic option for me to keep them out of the weather. Walter and his worker spent several hours moving the large items out of the house. They also helped move a few items up from the basement for which I had a buyer. After loading up their truck, they followed me across town to Goodwill for the drop-off; he then took the items that were not accepted to the dump. He was upfront with costs and let me know the next day what his dump fees and gasoline costs were, so I could pay him those directly as well as his labor costs. While Walter was moving furniture out of the house, he made some observations about work that needed to be done to clean up the landscaping and offered to do the work himself. Normally, I wouldn't consider hiring a junk removal company for landscape and yard work, but Walter clearly knew what he was talking about - each thing he pointed out was something I had noted as needing done! I needed some of the over-grown beds thinned out, trees cut away from the house, vines pulled off the house, shrubs trimmed and shaped, weeds pulled, vines cut off fences, and mulch put out. While I had intended to do most of this work myself, I had to leave town and ran out of time. So, I called Walter. He went to the house and did a video call with me to review each of the areas in the yard needing work. After doing all of the work, the following day - without my even requesting this - he returned and filmed a video showing the results of all of their efforts the prior afternoon and texted it to me. It's very rare to find someone who can manage a whole project like this without any supervision. Likewise, it was wonderful that he knew that I was anxious about the results since I wasn't still in town and found a way to get me that reassurance by his video. As I mentioned at the start, Walter is very enjoyable to work with, and I would highly recommend him."See more

Dawn C. says, "David showed up the day after I contacted him to give me an estimate of the work I wanted completed. I live in a townhouse so the yard is not large but I needed a tree trimmed, trimming of bushes, mulching in the front. Weeds pulled from the rear around a/c unit and a stoned pad for my trash cans to sit on the side of the house. On the day of work he arrived early and completed everything for a very reasonable price. I plan on using David for a stoned patio soon."See more

FAQs

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

The average cost to haul away junk is $150, though this price can be expected to vary between around $75 and $375, depending on several factors. 

The first factor is the quantity of junk removed. Most junk removal services charge by the truckload, and most residential projects only require filling up part of a truckload.

Another factor is the type of junk. E-waste like computers and TVs may cost more to dispose of, as will more hazardous materials like mercury, paint and used motor oil. It also may cost more to remove big items like beds and couches.

To find out how much it will cost to get rid of your junk, get free estimates from the best junk removal companies near you.

To prepare for junk removal, start by listing all the items you should get rid of. Organize your list by which items are appropriate for the junk collection team and which may have some resale value or could be donated. 

Move through your house and hit problem spots like closets, attics and basements. Make a pile of items you plan to keep, give away, sell, donate and have the junk removers pick up. Finally, contact at least three junk removal companies for price quotes.

To get rid of your junk fast, start by organizing and making a list of what you have. Sell what you can, and give away items that you value but you don’t want to friends and family. 

If you don’t have the means to transport items or if you have too much junk to get rid of on your own, it’s time to hire a pro. A junk removal service can quickly and efficiently get rid of junk for you, including lifting heavy objects and making sure nothing is damaged.

Find a junk removal service near you and start asking for free estimates.

You may want to tip your junk removal team if they did an exceptional job. For instance, if they show up on time, are courteous and professional, take extra care not to damage your possessions and home, and leave a clean site afterwards, you may feel like giving them a tip. A reasonable tip might be $20 per crew member.

It’s also nice to tip them on especially hot days, or when the weather is inclement. You can also provide food and drinks for them.

You can get rid of a couch by hiring a junk removal pro who can get it safely out of your house and dispose of it. There are other options as well, including renting a trailer and hauling it to a proper disposal facility, or leaving it out for someone to pick up. 

However, a junk removal service is the easiest option. This keeps you from having to lift a heavy object or risk scuffing up your walls. Furthermore, a licensed junk removal service can responsibly dispose of a couch, saving you from having to find a site.
