Junk Removal That Makes Moving Lighter and Cheaper
The cheapest thing you can do before a move is get rid of what you’re not keeping. Every box we carry is billable, and people routinely pay to transport furniture they throw out six weeks later. Walk the house before your move and be honest about the basement, the garage and the spare room — if it hasn’t been used since the last move, it probably isn’t coming to the next one.
We take furniture, appliances, electronics and e-waste, renovation debris, yard waste, general household clutter and full estate or garage contents. We can’t take hazardous waste — paint, solvents, oils, chemicals, propane tanks — or asbestos-containing materials, tyres in quantity, or medical waste. The City of Calgary’s landfill sites accept most household hazardous waste.
Not everything is garbage, and treating it as such is wasteful and more expensive for you. Furniture in usable condition and working appliances go to donation. Metals, electronics, cardboard and clean wood are recycled. Only what genuinely has no other route is landfilled. Ask us to prioritise donation if that matters to you — it sometimes takes an extra stop and we’re happy to do it.
A large share of this work is estate clearance, often for a family sorting a parent’s home under time pressure. We work at whatever pace suits: family walks through and tags what’s being kept, we handle everything else, and where a house has to be emptied for a possession date we can do it in stages so nobody’s making decisions at 9pm the night before.
Frequently Asked Questions
It’s priced by the volume you actually have rather than a flat call-out, so a couple of items costs considerably less than a garage clear-out. Booking it alongside a move is cheaper than a standalone visit, because the crew and truck are already scheduled.
Hazardous waste — paint, solvents, oils, chemicals, propane tanks — plus asbestos-containing material, quantities of tyres, and medical or biological waste. The City of Calgary’s landfill sites accept most household hazardous waste. Send a photo if you’re unsure.
Yes, wherever we can. Furniture in usable condition and working appliances go to donation rather than landfill, and metals, electronics and clean wood are recycled. Tell us if prioritising donation matters to you and we’ll route things accordingly.
Yes. Full estate and downsizing clear-outs are a regular part of our work, and we can stage them over several days so a family isn’t forced to make decisions all at once. Items being kept can go straight into the move or into storage.
For a full clear-out, someone should walk through with the crew at the start to confirm what’s going and what’s staying. After that you don’t need to stay. For a straightforward furniture pickup, arranged access is enough.
Better to do it the day before. That way the crew arrives to a house containing only what’s actually moving, which shortens the move and reduces what you’re billed for carrying.
