The Junkiez provides same-day estate cleanout in Santa Monica. Complete, discreet estate and probate clear-outs handled at your pace, with donation receipts for the estate.

Estate cleanouts are rarely just a hauling job. Usually someone has died, the family is spread across time zones, and there is a probate timeline or a close-of-escrow date pressing on everyone. We have done enough of these to know the work is as much about pacing and discretion as it is about lifting. We can clear a whole house in a day, or come back across a week while family members take what they want.

### Estate Cleanouts in Santa Monica

Santa Monica runs on rent-controlled apartment stock built between the 1920s and the 1970s, and that shapes almost every job here. Units turn over, tenants leave furniture behind, and buildings have narrow stairwells, no service elevator, and alley access that is frequently blocked by the neighbouring building’s bins. Owners and property managers are our most common callers.

Santa Monica runs its own Resource Recovery and Recycling operation rather than contracting out, and street parking enforcement here is genuinely strict — we plan for permit zones and metered loading rather than gambling on a citation. For Ocean Park and the streets south of Pico, alley access is usually faster than the street frontage, and we will ask which you have.

### What we take

- Complete household contents, room by room

- Furniture, appliances and electronics

- Clothing, linens, books and personal effects

- Garage, attic, basement and shed contents

- Yard debris and exterior clutter

- Paperwork and documents (shredding on request)

- Anything left behind after the estate sale

### We look before we lift

Cash in books, jewellery in coat pockets, savings bonds taped inside drawers, service medals in a sock drawer — we have found all of it. Our crews are trained to set anything that looks personal, valuable or documentary aside for the family rather than assume it is trash. If you tell us what you are hoping to find, we will keep an eye out specifically.

### Getting a price in Santa Monica

We quote free on site, before anything is loaded, and the number does not change afterwards. Our rates are the same everywhere we work — there is no Santa Monica surcharge, and stairs, long carries and disassembly are all included.

We cover all of Santa Monica, including Ocean Park, Sunset Park, Wilshire-Montana, Mid-City, North of Montana and Pico District.

## Frequently asked questions

**Can you work with our estate attorney or realtor?**  
Yes, routinely. We coordinate around probate deadlines and close-of-escrow dates.

**What if you find something valuable?**  
It is set aside for the family, every time. Tell us what you are looking for and we will watch for it specifically.

**Can you do it in stages?**  
Yes. Many families need a few visits so relatives can take what they want first.
