Junk removal in the Middle Atlantic states

All three Middle Atlantic states keep old TVs and computers out of the trash by law. In New York, households have been barred since January 1, 2015 from putting electronic waste out for disposal, and that covers TVs, computers, monitors, printers and game consoles. New Jersey's Electronic Waste Management Act makes it illegal to knowingly dispose of a used computer, monitor, laptop or television as solid waste. Pennsylvania's Covered Device Recycling Act bars putting a TV, computer or monitor in municipal trash.

Questions homeowners ask

How accurate is a photo estimate?
It’s a ballpark, not a quote. A photo gives us a good read on how much there is, but a hauler who sees it in person will always be more precise. Use our number as the range to expect before you start calling around.
How is junk removal priced?
By how much of a truck your stuff fills — a few items cost far less than a full truckload. Heavy or special items like appliances and mattresses add a disposal fee.
Do you handle big or heavy items?
Most haulers do — appliances, furniture, mattresses, construction debris. Let us know in the quick questions so the ballpark includes the disposal fees.
Is this really free?
Yes. No signup, no credit card, no spam. We only make money if you choose to connect with a local pro — and that’s up to you.
What photo works best?
One shot that shows the whole pile, or the full room, gives the best read on how much there is.
