"Eddie and Dante arrived early to the job and were very professional. Had some strap metal laying out around the backyard and took care of it in a timely manner. Very respectful gentlemen and I would hire them again to remove any junk. Highly recommend!!"

"I needed a last minute junk removal company when I moved office locations on 5/28/26 and I chose Junk Take Away. I can't say enough good from the start to the end. It started with Kelly calling me to set up the date and time and was followed by Eddie and his buddy removing everything in a timely manner, they cleaned up after themselves and they were very respectful young men. I will definitely be using Eddie and his team again in the future."

Hauling questions, answered by experts

While a rented dumpster can handle a wide variety of materials, there are significant restrictions on what is allowed. Generally, you can dispose of most non-hazardous household junk, yard waste, and construction debris.

Accepted items typically include:

  • Furniture, carpets, old linens, and toys

  • Wood and yard debris

  • Small appliances and excess trash

  • Renovation waste like old finishes, building debris, and roofing materials (unless they contain lead paint or asbestos)

However, you cannot put toxic, flammable, or hazardous materials in a dumpster. Prohibited items almost always include:

  • Paint, gasoline, oil, and other fuels

  • Household cleaners and other chemicals

  • Electronics, batteries, and tires

  • Refrigerators, hot water tanks, and medical waste

Since regulations can vary by location and company, it is essential to check with your dumpster rental provider for their specific list of accepted and prohibited items before you begin.

In most areas, the local sanitation service will take a few small pieces of concrete and other construction debris per pickup at no additional cost, but this varies based on your location. You can contact your sanitation department for more information. In many areas, you’ll need to call for bulk pickup for concrete pieces, which may cost you a small flat fee. If you’re looking to dispose of large amounts of concrete, it’s best to hire a concrete disposal service near you to avoid the process taking weeks or even months.

The average cost of junk removal is around $250, but prices for this work range from $60 for small projects to $600 or more for large projects. Some companies charge per hour of work, but most will inspect your home and then give you a flat fee for the entire project. Garbage removal labor varies from project to project, so the best way to get an accurate estimate for your service is to contact a reputable garbage removal company in your area and hire them to inspect the junk that you plan to remove.

Sewer line care is a great time to give a little TLC to the rest of your home's plumbing. A bit like a car, each part of your plumbing works in tandem: One weak pipe affects the whole system.

Consider either winterizing your pipes before the first frost or prepping your plumbing for summer. If you spot an issue, factor in the cost to replace your home's pipes at the same time. A clog in your main sewer line could be the answer, but contacting a plumber near you sooner rather than later can keep costs low.

Unsurprisingly, one of the busiest seasons for junk haulers is the springtime. The warmer weather makes spring the best time for junk removal for most people. If your junk removal schedule is flexible, though, booking for the winter might be the best option for you. You’ll see more availability and even a possible discount since the colder months are generally slower for junk haulers. If you are getting rid of unneeded junk during warmer months, call a junk removal specialist in advance to ensure they get you on the schedule.
