Planning tips for this checklist
Sort before the truck arrives
Junk removal gets expensive and stressful when keep, donate, recycle, hazardous, and haul-away piles are not separated before pickup.
Ask about exclusions
Paint, chemicals, tires, electronics, mattresses, appliances, yard waste, construction debris, and heavy items can change pricing or require another provider.
Inspect cleared areas
After pickup, check walls, floors, stairs, driveways, remaining items, donation receipts, disposal notes, and final charges before closing the job.
