01 Pricing & Payment

You pay only for the space your junk fills in the truck. Our load-based pricing starts at $150 for a 1/8 truck load and goes up to $695 for a full load. Here's the full rate card:

Load sizeStarting priceRoughly holds
1/8 truck load$150up to ~825 lbs
1/4 truck load$275up to ~1,650 lbs
1/2 truck load$395up to ~3,300 lbs
3/4 truck load$525up to ~4,950 lbs
Full truck load$695up to ~6,600 lbs

These are "starting at" prices. You get the exact, all-in number from a free, no-obligation on-site estimate before any work begins — and we lock it. What you're quoted is what you pay.

Everything. The price covers all labor, loading, hauling, disposal, and cleanup. No hourly meters, no fuel add-ons, and no surprise upcharge when the truck is loaded. The number we quote before we lift a thing is the number on your bill.

Neither. We price by load size — how much space your stuff takes up in our 12-yard truck. That means one flat, upfront price instead of a clock running while our crew works.

Yes. The on-site estimate is free and there's no obligation to book. We look at what you need gone, give you the full price, and you decide. No charge to ask.

Two things: how many trips the job needs, and heavy, dense materials — dirt, gravel, roofing, masonry, brick, tile, and concrete weigh a lot for their size. We factor that into the upfront quote, so there's still no surprise at the curb.

You get your full, all-in price before any work starts, and we'll walk you through payment when you book — no pressure, no games.

We keep payment simple — just ask about your options when you book. Card payments include a 3% processing fee.

Yes — 10% off for seniors. We also credit you back any profit we make from items we resell or recycle out of your load, so responsible disposal can actually lower your bill.

There's no fee to reschedule with reasonable notice. A $75 cancellation fee applies only if you cancel after 6 PM the day before your scheduled service, since that slot is already reserved for you.

02 Booking & Scheduling

Three steps: 1) Get your price, set by load size. 2) Pick a date and time that works for you. 3) Two of our pros show up and haul it away. The fastest way to start is to call (215) 608-6297.

Yes — we offer same-day and next-day pickup wherever our schedule allows. Call early in the day for the best shot at a same-day slot.

Yes. We give you a real arrival window and call ahead before the crew leaves, so you're not stuck waiting around all day.

Usually yes — so you can point out what stays and what goes, and approve the final price. If you can't be there, just tell us when you book and we'll work out the details.

Whenever suits you. Many jobs go out same-day or next-day, but you can also book ahead for a specific date — handy for move-outs, estate timelines, or closing dates.

That's fine — small jobs are welcome. A single-item or small pickup falls under our 1/8 load, starting at $150, and we'll confirm the exact price before we load anything.

03 What We Take (and What We Don't)

Just about anything non-hazardous: furniture, appliances, electronics, mattresses, boxes, yard debris, construction debris, and the full contents of garages, basements, apartments, estates, and job sites. Not sure about an item? Ask when you call.

Yes — couches, sectionals, recliners, mattresses, box springs, dressers, tables, desks, cabinets, and more. We do the heavy lifting and carry it out ourselves, from any floor.

Yes — refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, dishwashers, stoves, water heaters, and AC units. Already unhooked is ideal, and we route them for recycling where possible.

Yes. We take TVs, monitors, computers, printers, and other e-waste, and recycle electronics responsibly instead of sending them straight to a landfill.

Yes — any size. We remove them and route them for recycling or proper disposal.

Yes — drywall, lumber, flooring, cabinets, tile, and general remodel debris. Heavy, dense materials like concrete, brick, and masonry are priced by weight, so we'll factor those into your upfront quote.

For safety and legal reasons we can't haul hazardous materials — things like wet paint, motor oil, gasoline, chemicals, asbestos, and propane tanks. Not sure about something? Call and ask — we'll tell you straight.

Yes — we pay cash for junk cars. Call with the details and we'll give you a number.

04 How the Job Works

No. You point, we haul. Our crew does all the lifting and carrying — from the basement, the attic, the back alley, wherever it sits. You don't lift a finger.

Simple: you get an upfront price, we set an arrival window, two pros show up, and we load, haul, and clean up. You approve the final price before we start, and we don't leave until your space is clear.

Yes. We sweep up the area after we load out, so you get the space back ready to use — not a pile of leftover mess.

Most single-room or small jobs take under an hour. A full garage, basement, or property cleanout can take a few hours depending on volume and access. We'll give you a realistic time estimate when we quote the job.

Yes — light demolition like sheds, decks, fencing, and non-structural interior teardown, hauled away in the same visit. Call with the details for a quote.

05 Types of Cleanouts

Yes. We clear entire homes — every room, closet, garage, and basement — for estates, downsizing, and sales. We handle it with care and can donate usable items on your behalf. Tell us the timeline and we'll work to it.

Yes, and we treat these jobs with patience and discretion. We work at your pace, sort what's worth keeping or donating, and clear the rest.

Yes — we do fast turnovers, post-eviction and foreclosure cleanouts, and pre-listing clear-outs. Upfront pricing and same-/next-day availability make it easy to hit a closing date or get a unit rent-ready.

Yes — two of our most common jobs. We clear years of buildup, haul out the heavy stuff, and sweep the space clean so you can actually use it again.

Yes. We clear offices, retail spaces, warehouses, and job sites — old furniture, equipment, fixtures, and debris. We can schedule around your business hours to keep disruption low.

06 Service Area & Trust

We're based at 2901 Glenview St and cover all of Northeast Philadelphia — including Mayfair, Bustleton, Somerton, Torresdale, Holmesburg, Fox Chase, Rhawnhurst, Frankford, Tacony, and Oxford Circle.

Yes — we cover the neighboring Bucks and Montgomery County suburbs (Bensalem, Feasterville, Southampton, Abington, Levittown, Willow Grove, and more) and cross the Delaware into nearby South Jersey towns like Pennsauken and Cherry Hill. Not sure if you're in range? Call and ask.

Yes. We're licensed and insured, and we show our credentials openly — because you're trusting a crew inside your home.

Two background-checked professionals in branded shirts — a local crew that knows the Northeast's rowhomes, alleys, and tight parking. Owner Mike Sullivan runs every quote himself and still rides along on jobs.

20 years in junk removal and hauling. Mike was born and raised in the Northeast, spent years on the trucks, and now runs the crew that serves his own neighborhood.

We donate and recycle first. Usable furniture and goods go to donation, metal and electronics get recycled, and only what's left goes to a permitted disposal facility. Less waste for the landfill — and any resale or recycling profit is credited back to your bill.

A dumpster means you do the lifting, the loading, and the hauling — plus permits and a container sitting on your street for days. With us, our crew does all of it in one visit, and you get an upfront flat price instead of overage fees.
