"Needed a very large dresser removed from our basement with a large mirror attachment. Second city Hauling came in and were extremely professional and courteous. Very quick and efficient with removal. This is the second time I have used their services for furniture/junk removal and both times have been very quick and efficient."

"Danny Deconstruction Junk Removal services were superb! The two drivers were not only timely, but they were also friendly, professional and efficient. I was so impressed with the time they took to carefully and safely remove our items, and they offer competitive pricing. I plan to use their services again, and will highly recommend them to our friends, family and neighbors for this and any other services they offer! Thank you Angi for sending us their contact information."

Hauling questions, answered by experts

While do-it-yourself removal is possible, professional services are often recommended. Professionals handle permits, heavy lifting, and ensure safe and proper disposal in compliance with waste management laws.

Most junk removal services don’t take hazardous materials, including paint, gasoline, bleach, and other chemicals. When gathering quotes, ask the company about its specific restrictions.

It depends on the amount of trash you need to unload. Generally, renting a dumpster is more cost-effective than taking trash to the dump yourself if you are dealing with a significant amount of waste. For a small carload worth of junk, it is far cheaper to bring it to the dump yourself.

While many junk haulers have restrictions on taking hazardous materials, most will be able to take appliances that use refrigerants, like refrigerators and air conditioners. Always check with the junk removal company first to find out if there are extra fees or preparation steps for removing appliances that use refrigerants. 

The four-box method for cleaning out an estate is a technique that can make large-scale projects more manageable. This method uses four boxes to separate items into four categories: items to dispose of, items to give away, items to keep, and items to relocate. You can sort items before a professional estate cleaner comes in to save time and money.
