Furniture Removal

We remove sofas, recliners, beds, dressers, dining sets, and any other furniture from any room in your home.

What Is Included

  • Carrying items from any room (basement, attic, upstairs)
  • Disassembly of large pieces when necessary
  • Loading and hauling to appropriate disposal or donation facility
  • Donation of items in usable condition
  • Cleanup of the space after removal

What to Expect

Our team arrives, reviews the items with you, provides a firm quote based on volume, then gets to work. Most furniture removal jobs take 30-90 minutes depending on the number of items and floors involved.

Pricing Factors

  • Volume of items removed (priced by truck/trailer space)
  • Weight of items (solid wood vs. particle board)
  • Floor level (basement, second floor, attic adds time)
  • Disassembly required

How to Prepare

  • 1
    Identify all pieces to be removed before we arrive
  • 2
    Clear a path from the furniture to the nearest exit if possible
  • 3
    Let us know if any items are in excellent condition — we'll try to donate them
  • 4
    If items are upstairs or in a basement, mention that when scheduling

Refrigerators, washers, dryers, stoves, dishwashers — we remove and responsibly dispose of all household appliances.

What Is Included

  • Disconnecting and moving appliances from any location
  • Hauling to appropriate recycling or disposal facilities
  • Responsible recycling of metal components when possible
  • Removal from kitchen, garage, basement, or utility room

What to Expect

Appliances are heavy and awkward. Our team has the equipment and training to move them safely without damaging floors or doorframes. We handle everything from small window AC units to large side-by-side refrigerators.

Pricing Factors

  • Size and weight of the appliance
  • Number of appliances being removed
  • Location and access difficulty
  • Refrigerant removal (refrigerators, ACs require special handling)

How to Prepare

    Empty the refrigerator or freezer before we arrive

Garage Cleanouts

Complete garage cleanouts — tools, shelving, holiday decorations, old sports equipment, and years of accumulated junk removed in a single visit.

What Is Included

  • Removal of all items from the garage (as directed)
  • Old furniture, appliances, tools, equipment, and debris
  • Shelving and storage unit removal if needed
  • Sweeping out the garage floor after haul-out
  • Donation of usable items

What to Expect

A full garage cleanout typically takes 2-4 hours depending on how packed it is. We bring our truck, back it up to the garage, work systematically through the space, and leave you with an empty, usable garage.

Pricing Factors

  • Total volume of items removed
  • Presence of heavy equipment or specialized items
  • Need for shelving or structure removal
  • Hazardous materials (oil, chemicals — these require separate disposal)

How to Prepare

  • 1
    Walk through and identify anything you want to keep before we arrive
  • 2
    Place a clear marker on items you're keeping (masking tape works)
  • 3
    Don't stress about organizing before we get there — that's our job
  • 4
    Make sure the driveway is clear enough for our truck to back in

Basement Cleanouts

Basements accumulate years of forgotten belongings. We clear them out completely, navigating stairs and tight access.

What Is Included

  • Removal of all items from the basement (as directed)
  • Furniture, appliances, boxes, storage items, and debris
  • Navigation of stairs and tight basement access
  • Heavy lifting and equipment for large items
  • Final sweep of the cleared space

What to Expect

Basement cleanouts take longer than ground-floor cleanouts due to stair access. Our team uses dollies and proper technique to safely remove even heavy items up stairs without damaging walls or flooring. Expect 2-6 hours for a full basement depending on volume.

Pricing Factors

  • Volume of items
  • Stair access vs. walkout basement
  • Presence of heavy or specialized items
  • Total square footage of the basement

How to Prepare

  • 1
    Clear a path on the stairs before we arrive
  • 2
    Identify any items you want to keep and move them to a corner
  • 3
    Let us know if there are particularly heavy items (workout equipment, safes) when scheduling
  • 4

Attic Cleanouts

We access and clear attic spaces, removing stored items, old insulation debris, and accumulated junk through tight access hatches.

What Is Included

  • Removing all items from attic space (as directed)
  • Working through standard pull-down attic stairs or access hatch
  • Boxes, holiday decorations, old furniture, stored items
  • Damaged insulation removal when needed

What to Expect

Attic cleanouts are physically demanding work. Access is often through a small hatch, and attic heat can be extreme in summer. Our team brings flashlights, moves carefully to avoid stepping through the ceiling, and passes items down safely.

Pricing Factors

  • Volume and type of items
  • Access difficulty (standard hatch vs. tight crawl space)
  • Summer heat adds time and difficulty
  • Distance items need to be passed down before loading

How to Prepare

  • 1
    Know where the attic access is and make sure it's fully accessible
  • 2
    Turn off attic fans or HVAC equipment if possible during the job
  • 3
    Identify any items you want to keep before we start
  • 4

Hot Tub Removal

Hot tub removal is a specialty job requiring proper disconnection, cutting, and safe hauling. Here's exactly how it works.

What Is Included

  • Disconnecting plumbing and water lines
  • Cutting the shell into sections for safe removal
  • Loading and hauling all materials (shell, insulation, frame)
  • Clearing the area where the hot tub was located

What to Expect

Hot tub removal typically takes 2-4 hours. It is not a DIY job — the units are extremely heavy, require specialized cutting equipment, and involve plumbing disconnection. We handle all of it. Before we arrive, you'll need to have power disconnected at the breaker and the unit fully drained.

Pricing Factors

  • Size and type of hot tub
  • Access difficulty (fenced yard, deck-mounted, etc.)
  • Whether electrical disconnection is needed (if so, a licensed electrician is required separately)
  • Disposal fees for the materials

How to Prepare

  • 1
    Have power disconnected at the circuit breaker before our arrival
  • 2
    Fully drain the hot tub (allow 2-6 hours for draining)
  • 3
    Clear the access path from the hot tub to your street or driveway
  • 4
    Ensure gate or side yard access of at least 36 inches
