How Much Does Junk Removal Cost?

Chicago-area pricing typically ranges from $150 to $800+, depending on the amount of junk, item types, weight, accessibility and special handling. A single item, a curbside pile and a full home cleanout involve different work.

A Starting Price Is a Planning Guide

The amounts below are typical starting prices, not a binding offer for every job. They are not automatically added together for a mixed load. We review the complete removal, carry-out route and disposal requirements to confirm the price. Coverage, travel costs and appointment availability are checked for your address.

Truckload Pricing for Curbside Pickup

These starting prices are based on the volume of an accessible curbside load. In-home carrying, stairs, heavy material or special handling can change the quote.

Curbside volume guide
Item or loadStarting price
1/8 load$150
1/4 load$250
1/2 load$395
3/4 load$525
Full load$675

Heavy Materials Are Quoted Separately

Dirt, concrete, brick and shingles are priced by weight and handling requirements. Describe the material and approximate amount, and include photos. These loads do not use the ordinary curbside volume prices above.

Typical In-Home Item Prices

Identify each item and its location. These starting prices help with planning; item size, condition, dismantling and the route out are reviewed for the final quote.

What Can Change the Price?

Stairs and Access

Include the floor, number of stair flights, elevator availability, parking and carrying distance. A stair-carry charge may apply based on the flights and size or weight of the items. Building elevator reservations, loading access and required paperwork should be discussed before pickup.

Special Handling

Tell us about bed bugs, roaches, moisture, mold or other contamination before booking. Protective wrapping, equipment and additional handling may affect the price. Acceptance and the handling plan must be confirmed; this price guide does not promise hazardous-waste removal, pest treatment or mold remediation.

Timing and Preparation

Same-day, expedited or after-hours appointments may carry an additional fee and depend on crew availability. Identify any dismantling or appliance preparation needed. The agreed scope should distinguish removal work from belongings and fixtures that are staying.

What Your Confirmed Quote Covers

The agreed removal includes the labor, loading and hauling described in your quote. We review disposal and any recycling options for the actual materials. Recycling depends on the item and available facilities; it is not guaranteed for every load.

Ask about any access, travel, special-handling or disposal charges before accepting the quote. If the item list or conditions change, the revised scope and price should be agreed before additional work. Payment is due after the agreed removal is complete and before the crew leaves. Square/card, Zelle and cash are accepted.

Details That Help Us Quote Your Job

  1. Items and photos: Show the complete pile and large or unusual items. Note quantities, dimensions and anything requiring dismantling.
  2. ZIP code and access: Include where the items sit, stairs or elevator, parking and carrying distance.
  3. Condition and timing: Disclose contamination or heavy material and tell us your preferred pickup date.

Submitting a request starts the review. It does not reserve an appointment or confirm a final price. We follow up to agree on the removal and available scheduling.
