Professional storage unit cleanout for Berkeley homes and businesses

We clear storage units across Berkeley and the surrounding parts of Alameda County — personal units, business overflow, inherited units and auction-won lots.

Auction buyers are a regular part of our work. You bid on a unit, you want the four things worth keeping, and you have a short window to clear the rest before the facility starts charging you. We turn those around fast, usually the same day.

Everything gets sorted rather than dumped. Usable furniture and household goods go to local charities, metal and e-waste go to recyclers, and only the genuine remainder reaches Berkeley Transfer Station in Berkeley.

Storage Unit Cleanout across Berkeley — what we typically see

Storage Unit Cleanout is not identical everywhere. These are the patterns specific to Berkeley and Alameda County.

  • Disposal: loads from Berkeley go to Berkeley Transfer Station in Berkeley, where recoverable material is separated before anything is landfilled.
  • Worth knowing locally: 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.
  • West Berkeley: narrow North Berkeley hill streets, steep stair-only entries and student housing with no driveway access make hand-carry the norm rather than the exception.
  • Around the UC Berkeley campus: we allow extra time for staging and access, and we regularly take broom-clean sweep-out of the unit out of properties in this part of Berkeley.

How storage unit cleanout works in Berkeley

  1. 1

    Give us the size and location

    A 5x10 and a 10x30 are very different jobs. Tell us the unit size and facility when you call 877-536-7941 for an accurate Berkeley quote.

  2. 2

    Meet us or send access

    You can be there to sort, or give the facility authorisation and we will handle it without you.

  3. 3

    Emptied and sorted

    Contents come out, get sorted for donation and recycling as they load, and anything you flagged is set aside.

  4. 4

    Swept and closed out

    The unit is left broom-clean so the facility signs off and your billing stops. Remaining material goes to Berkeley Transfer Station in Berkeley.

Working in Berkeley, CA

Our storage unit cleanout crews know Berkeley well — the streets around the UC Berkeley campus as much as the quieter parts of North Berkeley.

The local housing stock matters for this work: 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.

Then there is getting a truck to the work: narrow North Berkeley hill streets, steep stair-only entries and student housing with no driveway access make hand-carry the norm rather than the exception.

Our disposal point for Berkeley is Berkeley Transfer Station in Berkeley — a permitted facility, with the paperwork to prove where your material went.

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 storage unit cleanout

“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.”
Ellen W. · Berkeley, CA
“Storage unit I had been paying for since 2019. One phone call, they met me there, and it was empty and swept in under three hours. Should have done it years ago.”
Chris B. · Concord, CA
“Cleared the whole yard after the landscapers left the debris behind. Fast quote, fair price, and they swept the driveway before leaving.”
Paul E. · Pleasanton, CA

Storage Unit Cleanout in Berkeley — your questions answered

The questions we are asked most often about storage unit cleanout in Berkeley and the surrounding Alameda County area.

How much does a storage unit cleanout cost in Berkeley?
Unit cleanouts are priced on the unit size and how tightly it is packed. A half-empty locker and one packed floor-to-ceiling are very different jobs even at the same square footage. Tell us the unit size and the facility when you call 877-536-7941 and we will quote it there and then - most customers find one cleanout costs less than carrying the unit for another few months.
Do I need to be there?
No. If you authorise access with the facility office, we can clear the unit entirely without you present and send photos when it is done. Plenty of our Berkeley customers no longer live nearby, which is usually how the unit ended up forgotten in the first place.
Can you help with a unit I bought at auction?
Yes, and this is a large part of what we do. Take out what you want, and we will clear the rest — usually the same day, which matters because facilities start charging you as soon as the clearance window closes.
Will you sweep the unit out?
Yes. Most facilities require broom-clean condition before they will close the contract and stop billing, so it is included as standard rather than treated as an extra.
What if some of the contents are still good?
They get donated rather than dumped. Usable furniture, household goods and clothing go to local charity partners. Tell us if you want a donation receipt and we will arrange it.
What about mould or pest damage?
Common in long-forgotten units, and we are equipped for it. Damp coastal air across much of Alameda County means water-damaged contents are the norm rather than the exception in units that have sat for years.
Do you cover all of Berkeley?
Yes — every neighbourhood, including Elmwood, North Berkeley, West Berkeley and Claremont. We also serve the surrounding Alameda County communities, so if you are just outside the city line we can almost certainly still help. Call 877-536-7941 and we will confirm in a moment.
Do you offer same-day service in Berkeley?
We run Alameda County daily and can often reach Berkeley the same day when you call before mid-morning. Narrow North Berkeley hill streets, steep stair-only entries and student housing with no driveway access make hand-carry the norm rather than the exception, so we confirm a realistic arrival window rather than a vague half-day promise.
