"Big Boss Man Junk Removal & More LLC took on a massive challenge and delivered beyond expectations. The 4-story home had been vacant for over six months and was packed to the limits—every room filled with furniture, personal items, and debris. The refrigerators and freezers were still full of rotting food, and the basement was overloaded not just with expired canned goods, but with an overwhelming amount of clutter and supplies. The property was high-risk, with black mold, rat urine, and fecal matter throughout. Mitch and his crew handled it all with professionalism, care, and grit. They cleared out 12.5 full dump trailers worth of material, wiped down & sanitized every surface, and are pressure washing the entire exterior—including four balconies and a wraparound porch. Their attention to detail, safety protocols, and relentless work ethic turned a hazardous, overwhelming situation into a clean, livable space.

"I had a trampoline and a lot of junk that needed to be hauled off. I also had them cut up two trees and haul the wood off. They were very quick and cleaned up perfectly! I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again!!"

"They did a great job! My roof looks great! Reliable and kept me well informed about everything. They kept cost in mind and cleaned up nicely after themselves. Serge even came out late to tarp the roof until it could get repaired so that I didnâ t have any further damage to the house waiting for the roof. They were very nice to work with. Great people. I canâ t say enough good things about them!"

FAQs for garbage removal projects in Hickory, NC

The kinds of items or materials accepted will vary by hauling company. Some companies will not handle hazardous waste, but hiring ones that do will cost from $5 to $100 or more, depending on what type and quantity of material. 

Most companies will haul items such as: 

  • Construction and remodeling waste: $100–$600

  • Appliances: $50–$600

  • Furniture: $50–$400

  • Electronics: $60–$200

  • Yard waste: $70–$500

The cost to hire a professional junk hauling service ranges from $60 to $600, averaging about $270. Your final price is determined by the type of junk, amount of junk, the distance to the dumpsite, and the equipment required to move and haul your items or materials. Keep in mind that construction junk removal is more expensive than hauling household items, so expect to pay $800 for removing large piles of debris.

Contact your local municipality to request garbage collection services. In most areas, your local city or municipality manages garbage collection, which contracts a waste collection company to do trash collection and other garbage collection and disposal services. However, if you can’t wait for the next trash collection day, you can also contact a local junk removal service to come and haul away your garbage. Confirm with any junk removal companies what items they will take. If you’re renovating your home or have a lot of garbage to get rid of, consider renting a dumpster.

A garbage collection pro or junk removal company can typically take anything from a single item such as refrigerator to the entire contents of a house or out-building being emptied. One exception is disposing of hazardous waste (like bleach or used oil), which is typically handled by your municipality. Check reviews, references, and qualifications of any company you hire to collect garbage. Ask what the company’s limitations are, what tools and equipment they use, and their availability. 

Disposing of old paint, bleach, oil, and fertilizer should be handled by a company that specializes in this kind of waste. Many private junk removal companies do not dispose of these items. Because these materials are hazardous to the environment and dangerous to handle or dispose of improperly, you should confirm with your local municipality about places to take hazardous materials for safe disposal.
