Junk Removal in Portland and Eugene
The things that are not coming with you. Cleared on the same visit as the move, or on their own.
- Same-visit clear-out
- Standalone hauls
- Donation sorting
- Estate clear-outs
Two ways people use it
- Alongside a move
- The most common. One crew, one visit, and you hand back an empty property
- On its own
- A garage, a basement, an estate clear-out or a single heavy item
- What happens to it
- Sorted for donation and recycling where the item allows, landfill where it does not
- Where
- Portland and Eugene, Monday through Saturday
Every move produces a pile nobody planned for
The sofa that will not fit the new living room. The exercise bike. Three cans of paint and a mattress. It appears in every move and it is almost never in the plan.
Handling it separately means booking a second company, on a second day, for a job the crew standing in your driveway could have done in forty minutes. Handling it on the same visit means you hand back an empty property and get on with your move.
It also works as a standalone job. A garage, a basement, a rental turnover or an estate clear-out does not need a moving truck attached to it.
What we take
- Furniture and mattresses. Including the ones that are awkward to get out.
- Appliances. Fridges, washers, dryers and ranges, disconnected and removed.
- General household clear-outs. Garages, basements, sheds and lofts.
- Office furniture, alongside a commercial move or on its own.
- Yard and renovation debris in reasonable quantities.
Booked with something else, usually
Most junk removal happens on the same visit as another job.
With a house move
What is going goes on one truck, what is not goes on the other. Same crew, same day, empty house at the end.
Residential movingWith an office move
Old workstations and fixtures cleared on the same schedule so you hand the lease back clean.
Commercial movingBefore storage
Storage charges by space. Deciding what is not going in is the cheapest part of a storage plan.
StoragePoint at it and it goes
Tell us roughly what there is
Photographs are usually enough for a standalone haul. If it is part of a move it gets covered in the walkthrough.
A price before we load
Quoted on volume and what the items are. You approve the number before anything goes on the truck.
We do the carrying
You do not need to move anything to the kerb. We take it from wherever it is, including basements and lofts.
Sorted, not just dumped
Usable furniture and appliances go to donation where they will be accepted. Metal, cardboard and electronics go to recycling. The rest is disposed of properly.
Where it stops
Junk removal is straightforward work with a few genuine hard limits, most of them legal rather than practical. A crew that agrees to take everything is a crew that is going to fly-tip something, and that is your name on the paperwork, not theirs.
So there is a short list of things that do not go on our truck, and we will tell you at the quote rather than on the day.
What we cannot take
- Hazardous waste. Paint, solvents, fuel, oil, pesticides, pool chemicals and asbestos. These need a household hazardous waste facility.
- Medical and biohazard waste, including sharps.
- Tyres and vehicle batteries in quantity.
- Ammunition and explosives.
- Anything requiring demolition rather than removal. Taking a deck apart is a different trade.
Clear-outs in both markets
Available alongside a move or as a standalone booking in either market.
Junk removal, answered
How is it priced?
By the volume it takes on the truck and what the items are, because disposal costs differ. You get the number before we load, not after.
Do I need to carry it out first?
No. We take it from wherever it is, including basements, lofts and back gardens. That is most of what you are paying for.
Where does it actually go?
Usable furniture and working appliances go to donation where they will be accepted. Metal, cardboard and electronics go to recycling. What is left goes to landfill, which we would rather be the smallest part.
Can you take just one item?
Yes. A single mattress, a fridge or a sofa is a normal booking and does not need a move attached to it.
Can you do it on the same day as my move?
Yes, and that is how most people use it. It gets built into the move quote so you are not organising a second visit.
Need it gone?
Send us a couple of photographs and we will quote the haul.
