Professional junk removal for Berkeley homes and businesses
Like dust bunnies, excess junk just tends to accumulate over time. Pretty soon you feel as if you are living in a never-ending rummage sale — and getting rid of all that clutter without help can be a genuine hassle. Outdated exercise equipment, heavy furniture, large obsolete appliances, old jacuzzis: it all takes up valuable space.
In Berkeley, brown-shingle and Craftsman homes near campus plus a heavy rental stock, which means constant end-of-lease furniture and mattress turnover every summer. That is exactly the kind of property where junk quietly builds up for years until one weekend it finally has to go. Sure, you can move it yourself, but you also risk getting injured on the stairs. Instead, call us — we will be there in a jiffy and take care of it pronto.
We handle everything from excess yard waste and scrap metal to overflow trash, renovation debris and electronic waste. You will not have to do a thing besides point us in the right direction.

Berkeley is brown-shingle and Craftsman homes near campus plus a heavy rental stock, which means constant end-of-lease furniture and mattress turnover every summer, and that determines how a junk removal job actually runs.

It is also worth knowing that Berkeley has one of the strictest construction and demolition debris diversion ordinances in the state, so renovation loads need to be sorted for recycling rather than landfilled whole.

Berkeley customers on our junk removal
“Moved out of a Fremont rental on short notice and they took everything the same afternoon. Saved my deposit, honestly.”
“Handled my mother's house after she passed. They set aside a box of photos and her papers that we would have lost, and they never once made us feel rushed. That mattered more than the price.”
“Booked them for a single couch and ended up adding half the garage while they were there. Price adjusted fairly on the spot rather than doubling.”
