Junk Removal Pricing
Volume-based junk removal pricing: $99 minimum, $250 quarter truck, $499 half truck, $899 full truck. No hidden fees.
Junk removal with The Junkiez costs $99 for a minimum load, $250 for a quarter truck, $499 for a half truck and $899 for a full 12ft truck. You pay for the space your items take up, not by the hour, and the price is confirmed on site before anything is loaded.
Why volume rather than hourly
Hourly pricing punishes you for having a difficult property. If your couch is on the third floor of a 1920s walk-up with a turn at the bottom of the stairs, an hourly crew has every incentive to take its time. Volume pricing puts that risk on us: the price is agreed before anything moves, and if the job takes twice as long as we expected, that is our problem rather than your invoice.
Our truck is bigger than theirs
We run 12ft trucks. Most of the national franchises run 10ft. That is roughly 20% more capacity per load, which means a job that fills their truck often still fits in a half of ours. Worth checking when you compare quotes — “full truck” is not a standard unit.
The only things that ever cost extra
Two, and we tell you about both before we start. California mandates a per-tyre disposal fee, which is a few dollars each. And genuinely dense material — concrete, soil, tile, roofing — is capped by weight rather than volume, because a small pile of concrete can outweigh a full truck of furniture. Stairs, elevators, long carries, disassembly and heavy items are all included.
When you should not pay us at all
If you have one item, no deadline and live in a city with free bulky-item collection, use it. Most Southern California cities offer residents a few free pickups a year. We will tell you this on the phone rather than take your money for something your city will do for nothing.
