Junk removal cost guide

How much does junk removal cost in Raleigh?

Our real prices, from $99 for a single item to $850 for a full trailer, so you know what to expect before you book. No hidden fees.

Junk removal prices by load size

Every job is priced by how much room your junk takes up in our 15-cubic-yard dump trailer. The price covers our crew doing all the lifting, loading the trailer and hauling everything away. These are our standard prices in Raleigh and across the Triangle.

1/8 load$150A few bulky items
1/4 load$225A small pile
1/3 load$300A big pile or a small room
1/2 load$425About a room's worth
2/3 load$575A large room or a small garage
3/4 load$650A packed garage
Full load$850A whole cleanout

Our minimum charge is $99. Your online soft quote shows a price range around these numbers, because it is based on your own estimate of the load. Our crew confirms your exact price in person before any work starts.

Items with an added disposal fee

A few items cost more to dispose of, so they carry a set fee on top of the load price. Your quote always includes them, so nothing gets added at the end.
