Clearing out a house, a garage, a storage unit or a whole estate is really two costs bundled together: the labor to carry it all out, and the disposal. Splitting them is how you keep it affordable.
Labor-only vs full-service junk hauling
A full-service junk-removal company charges by the truckload — a price that bundles their labor, their truck and their dump fees, and climbs fast on a big clear-out. Hiring labor-only means you pay a flat rate for the heavy carrying while you (or a rented dumpster) handle disposal at cost. For anything more than a single small load, that split is usually much cheaper.
We carry everything out and load your rented dumpster, trailer or truck, and on request we'll set aside what's being kept or donated as we go — you point, we lift.
What moves the price
The volume, how far the carry is, stairs, and how much sorting is involved. A single room or a garage is flat-rate; a full house or an estate is custom-quoted from photos, but always a firm number up front — no meter running while the crew works.

Common questions
How much does it cost to clear out a house?
It's flat-rate labor based on volume and the carry. A room or storage unit often falls in the $84.99–$284.99 range; a full house or estate is custom-quoted from photos. You rent the dumpster or trailer and handle disposal, which keeps the total well below a full-service junk-haul rate.
Do you haul the junk away?
We're labor-only, so we carry everything out and load your rented dumpster, trailer or truck — you (or the dumpster company) handle disposal. Splitting labor from disposal is usually far cheaper than paying a haul-away firm's per-load rate for the same lifting.
Can you help with an estate clear-out?
Yes — full-house and estate clear-outs are a common job, handled with care and discretion. We carry everything out for disposal or donation and set aside what's being kept. Flat-rate labor, quoted from photos before booking.
Will you sort what stays and what goes?
On request, yes — tell us what's kept, donated or tossed and we'll carry it accordingly. Just point and we do the lifting.
