What this job is like here

The cheapest thing you can do before a move is move less. Junk removal is the same crew and the same truck, pointed at whatever isn't coming with you.

Capital Region junk removal is a basement business. Old houses, full cellars, and a bulkhead door that hasn't opened in a decade. Spring and late summer are the busy stretches, either side of the local moving season.

Worth knowing: Albany and Troy both run limited curbside bulk pickup. Past a couple of items, a truck is faster than waiting for a scheduled route.

What's included

  • Furniture, mattresses, appliances and exercise equipment
  • Garage, basement, attic and shed clear-outs
  • Post-renovation debris and yard-waste piles
  • Donation routing for anything still usable
  • Loading included, so nothing has to be at the curb first

What can junk removal in Albany take?

Most household things: old sofas and recliners, mattresses and box springs, dressers, tables, appliances, exercise equipment, and the contents of a basement, attic, garage or shed. We also take post-renovation debris and yard-waste piles. What we cannot take is anything hazardous, like paint, solvents, fuel, propane tanks and chemicals. Those belong at a household hazardous waste collection.

You do not need to bring anything to the curb. The crew carries it out from wherever it sits, including third-floor walk-ups and bulkhead basements.

Is junk removal faster than waiting for city bulk pickup?

Usually, once you have more than a couple of items. Albany and Troy both run limited curbside bulk pickup with their own schedules and rules, which suits a single chair. A truck and a crew suit a basement, an apartment cleanout or anything that has to be gone before a closing or the end of a lease.

How it runs

Three steps, start to finish

Point at it

Photos or a walkthrough. We price on truck volume, so what matters is how much space it takes up.

We load it

Out of the basement, down the stairs, off the property. You don't move any of it to the curb.

It gets routed

Anything donatable goes to donation where we can, and the rest to proper disposal.

This is probably you if

  • You're clearing out before a move or a sale
  • A garage or basement has quietly filled up
  • You've got one large item the trash service won't take

Questions

Junk Removal FAQ

Yes. Leftover furniture, mattresses and bags can be cleared in one visit before your walkthrough, which helps get the unit back into move-out condition.

By how much of the truck it fills. A quarter load costs a quarter-load price.

Hazardous material: paint, solvents, oil, chemicals, asbestos, propane. Those need a household hazardous-waste facility. If you're not sure about something, send us a photo and we'll tell you before the truck comes out.

Usable furniture and household goods go to donation wherever a local organization will take them.
