Cleanouts for Homes, Offices, and Estates, Priced Before We Start.
Send photos or a short video of the space, get a straight price back, and that is the bill. It is built from volume and access, and if anything in the place is going to push it, you hear that before the day and not on it.
What Drives the Price of a Cleanout
The price comes down to two things: volume and access. Volume is how much space the load takes up in the truck, which is why a cleanout gets priced on the space it fills. Access is what decides how hard that volume is to get out of the building: how many flights of stairs it has to come down, whether there is an elevator, how far the carry is from the door to the closest place a truck can legally stand, and whether anything in there is heavy enough to need more hands.
So the things that push it are the things you would guess. A walk-up. A long carry. A piano, a safe, a basement of construction debris. Anything with a disposal rule of its own, like a fridge or a television.
That is why we ask for photos or a short video first. Send them over and we will give you a straight price, and we will tell you up front if something about the job is going to push it, instead of adding it on the day. You get it before the day, and it is the bill.
The Cleanouts We Do Most
Apartment cleanouts
A unit that sold, a rental being turned over, or a place that simply accumulated more than it can hold. Walk-ups included.
Office cleanouts
Desks, chairs, cubicles, filing cabinets, and the pile of equipment nobody wants to carry down. We work around your lease deadline.
Basement, attic, and garage cleanouts
The ones that never get done because nobody wants to start. We start.
What Happens on a Cleanout, Start to Finish
Sometimes a place does not need to be moved. It needs to be emptied. An apartment that just sold, a parent's house after a lifetime in it, an office that closed, a basement nobody has been able to face for fifteen years.
That is a cleanout, and we do a lot of them. We bring the dumpster, we take the furniture, the appliances, and everything else, and we leave the place empty and swept. You do not have to sort it, carry it, or figure out where it goes.
Most people call after a specific thing has happened. The apartment sold and closing is in eleven days. A relative passed and the family has to clear the house. A tenant left a unit full of furniture. A business is out of its lease at the end of the month.
In every one of those cases the clock is the problem, not the stuff. So the job is to show up with a truck and a dumpster, work through the place, and get it emptied on a schedule that fits the deadline you are actually up against.
We take furniture, mattresses, appliances, boxes, clothing, and general household junk. Items that need special handling, like hazardous material, we will tell you about honestly instead of quietly leaving them behind.
Estate Cleanouts
An estate cleanout is rarely about the furniture. There is usually a deadline set by a closing or a landlord, a family that does not all live in the same state, and a house where nobody is certain what is worth keeping.
Before anyone starts filling a truck, walk the place once and take out what cannot be replaced. Wills, deeds, titles, bank and tax records, insurance policies, birth certificates, passports. Then check where people actually hide things: coat pockets, envelopes inside books, the backs of drawers, tins in the basement. Cash, jewelry, and paperwork turn up in all of them. If the estate is in probate, confirm you have the authority to clear the property before anything leaves it.
Then tell us what stays and it stays. We work at whatever pace the family needs, and we are careful with the things you want to keep. Most estate cleanouts are scheduled around a closing date or the end of a lease. Tell us the date you are up against and we work to it.
What We Haul, and What the Law Handles Differently
Furniture, mattresses and box springs, appliances, rugs, boxes, clothing, office equipment, and the general contents of a basement or a garage all go in the truck. If it is in the place and you want it gone, assume it goes with us, and send a photo if you are not sure.
A few things are different. Worth knowing which ones before the day.
Household hazardous waste cannot legally ride in any hauler's truck. That means wet paint, solvents, motor oil, gasoline, pool chemicals, pesticides, and aerosol cans. Pressurized and explosive items are the same story: propane tanks, helium tanks, fire extinguishers, ammunition. Asbestos insulation and lead paint need a licensed abatement contractor.
Electronics have their own rule. New York State has banned TVs, monitors, computers, printers, and game consoles from the trash since 2015, so they cannot go out with general junk. Tell us what electronics are in the place and we will tell you straight how they get handled.
Fridges, freezers, and window air conditioners hold refrigerant, and federal law requires it be recovered with certified equipment before the unit is scrapped. Say the fridge is part of the job when you send photos, so it is in the price from the start.
When a Cleanout Beats Renting a Dumpster Yourself
A dumpster is a container, and that is all it is. It arrives, it sits there, and every single thing in the place still has to come down the stairs in your arms. On a New York street it also needs a permit and a parking space somebody has to keep clear until it is hauled away.
A cleanout is the labour. The crew carries it all out, we bring the dumpster ourselves, and the place is left empty. Nothing in the building is your problem and nothing at the curb is either.
It usually lands at a bad moment and on a deadline. Paul, the owner, runs this business on two rules: be loyal to the customer, and do not be greedy. You are quoted once, and you deal with him directly, not a call center.
The two rules Paul runs on
- Be loyal to the customer.
- Do not be greedy.
Send photos, tell us your deadline, and we empty the place. You deal with Paul, not a call center.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you bring a dumpster?
Yes. We bring the dumpster and haul everything away.
How fast can you do it?
Tell us your deadline. Most cleanouts are scheduled around a closing date or the end of a lease, and we work to those dates.
Can you do a cleanout if I am not there?
Yes, as long as we have access and clear instructions on anything that stays.
Do you take appliances and mattresses?
Yes.
What if I want to keep some things?
Tell us what stays before we start and it stays. On estate cleanouts especially, we go at the pace the family needs.
How do I get a quote?
Send photos or a short video of the space. That is usually all we need.
What does a cleanout cost?
It comes down to volume and access: how much is in the place, how many flights of stairs it has to come down, and how close the truck can get. Send photos or a short video and you get a straight price before the day, and that is the bill.
What can you not take?
Household hazardous waste like wet paint, solvents, gasoline, and pool chemicals. Pressurized items like propane tanks and fire extinguishers. Asbestos and lead paint, which need a licensed abatement contractor. Tell us what is there and we will tell you honestly what needs a different path.
What happens to electronics in a cleanout?
Electronics have been banned from the trash in New York State since 2015, so a TV, a monitor, a computer, a printer, or a game console cannot go out with general junk. Tell us what electronics are in the place when you send photos and we will tell you how they get handled, before the day.
Do you take a refrigerator or an air conditioner?
Yes. Fridges, freezers, and window air conditioners hold refrigerant, and federal law requires that it be recovered with certified equipment before the unit is scrapped. Say it is part of the job when you send photos so it is in the price from the start.
Does a mattress need to be in a bag?
If you put a mattress at the curb yourself, the city requires it be sealed in a plastic bag, and an unbagged one can draw a fine. When it goes out with us, it goes in the truck.
Need a Place Cleared Out?
Homes, offices, estates, basements. We bring the dumpster and we leave the place empty.
