Get matched with top dumpster providers in Monroe, VA

The cheapest junk removal option is often through your city's bulk trash and recycling program, but this depends on the item in question. If your city doesn't accept the type of debris you want to remove, hiring a local junk removal team or renting a dumpster is your best bet. Additionally, research local dumps open to the public if the debris safely fits in your car.

The cost for junk removal is $240 on average, but prices can range from $60 to $600. Your total price largely depends on the items you’re having removed. Certain appliances, like window air conditioners, range from $75 to $90 to remove. However, more oversized items, like hot tubs, fall on the expensive side of the range, costing between $200 and $600 for removal. You should also consider the amount and weight of your junk, with most junk removal companies requiring a minimum of 2 cubic yards.

The price difference between a 10-yard and a 15-yard dumpster is anywhere from $15 to $200 per week. A 10-yard dumpster rental costs about $225 to $450 per week and a 15-yard dumpster costs about $240 to $650 per week. A 10-yard dumpster is suitable for medium-sized cleanup or small renovation projects like kitchen cabinets or small bathrooms. The 15-yard dumpster can handle projects like small porch or patio demolition, small bathroom or kitchen remodels, or about 1,500 square feet of shingles removed for a roofing project.
