Pricing & FAQ
Straight answers about junk removal on the North Shore.
Last updated September 2026.
How much does junk removal cost on the North Shore?
Pricing depends on how much space your items take up in the truck, plus labor and disposal fees. As a rough guide, single-item pickups usually run about $75–$200, and a full truckload usually runs about $450–$750. Stairs, heavy items (pianos, hot tubs) and things that need special recycling can add to that. You'll get a firm price from the hauler before any work starts.
Who actually does the work?
We're a local referral service, not a hauling company. Once you send a request, we match you with an independent junk removal company that serves your town. They confirm the price and schedule with you directly.
How fast can someone come out?
For most jobs, a hauler can come within one to three days. Same-day pickup is sometimes possible, especially early in the week. Tell us your timing in the request.
What can't be hauled?
Hazardous materials: paint, solvents, fuel, propane tanks, pesticides, asbestos and medical waste. Those go to your town's household hazardous waste collection. Almost everything else is fine: furniture, appliances, electronics, mattresses, debris and yard waste.
Do you recycle or donate?
Massachusetts bans mattresses, textiles, appliances, CRT TVs and some other items from regular trash, so haulers take those to recyclers. Most local crews also drop usable furniture and household goods at donation centers.
Do I need to be home?
Not always. For curbside or driveway pickups, or if you're managing a property from out of town, many haulers can work from photos and send photos when they're done.
Which towns do you cover?
Beverly, Salem, Gloucester, Manchester-by-the-Sea, Essex, Rockport and Ipswich, plus nearby towns like Hamilton, Wenham, Danvers and Peabody. If you're not sure, just ask.
