Pricing and Payment

What is a no-obligation onsite estimate?

We want to make sure we give you an accurate price, and since we price based on how much space your items take up in the truck, we need to see your items in person before we can give you a final price. As soon as the friendly, uniformed team arrives, they’ll take a look at all of the items you want to have removed and provide an exact price before starting the work. We only complete the job if you are happy with the price, so if you choose not to proceed, just say the word and we’ll be on our way.

Pricing and Payment
What payment methods do you accept?

We accept cash and major credit cards, and some locations have additional payment options. Payment is only processed once the job is complete.

Pricing and Payment
How much do you charge?

For multiple items, the price is based on how much space your items take up in the truck. If you have only one item, we do have special single-item prices. The best way to get an exact price is to book a free, no-obligation onsite estimate. You can find starting pricing for single items and more information on volume pricing here: https://www.1800gotjunk.com/us_en/how-our-pricing-works

My Appointment

Can you remove my junk if I’m not onsite?

It depends on where you’re located. Some of our franchises are able to get the job done even if you aren't home, as long as the items are easily accessible and the team can take payment over the phone. However, some locations do require you to be at home in order to remove your items.

My Appointment
When should I expect you to arrive?

On the day of your appointment with us, our friendly, uniformed truck team members will text or give you a call 15-30 minutes before the start of your two hour promise window. They’ll say hi, let you know what time they plan to arrive, and confirm any other details about your appointment if needed.
