"I set the initial appointment via their website. Two days prior to the appointment, I realized I wasn't going to be able to disconnect the gas from the stove on my own, and needed extra time. As I was about to call to reschedule the next day, they called me to confirm the appointment. The person I spoke to was very pleasant, helpful, and understanding, and I requested the appointment for the same time a week later. He said he would check to make sure that time worked, and would be in touch if they had to work out another time with me. <br /> The next week, I received another call to confirm the appointment, from what I think was the same person. He asked for some of the details on what I was having removed, and said they would be there around 8:15-8:30, or so. <br /> The day of removal, I got a courtesy notification call about 15-20 minutes ahead of their arrival. I pointed out what I needed removed, and they gave me an estimate on the spot, and notified me that each tire would be an additional $5 to remove. The estimate they gave ended up being dead-on. From the time they got there until they had everything out, took my payment (I paid via credit card), and left, only around 15-20 minutes had passed. <br /> I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable company, with great customer service that does exactly what it says it's going to do, and does so punctually. My experience with 1-800-Got-Junk? was definitely as pleasurable as you're likely to find in the unpleasant business of trash removal. <br />"

FAQs for waste, junk, building materials and debris removal and hauling projects in Amherst, NY

To throw out stained, broken, or infested mattresses or couches, call a junk hauler or take it to your local landfill yourself. If it’s infested with pests, you might want to call a pest control specialist near you. If you have infested furniture, there's a good chance you have an infested home, too.

Tipping furniture removal services is not mandatory, but it is a thoughtful way to acknowledge their hard work and professionalism. If you're pleased with the service, consider tipping junk haulers 5% to 10% of the total cost or $10 to $20 per worker. This is especially appreciated when the job involves heavy lifting, navigating stairs, or handling bulky items. Tipping not only rewards the workers for a job well done but also fosters a positive working relationship.

If your furniture is in good condition, you have a few options:

  • Donate to charities: Organizations like Goodwill, Salvation Army, Habitat for Humanity, and GreenDrop often accept furniture donations and may offer free pickup services.

  • List online: You can list your items for free on local online marketplaces or community groups to find someone who needs them. Giving away your furniture not only helps you clear space but also benefits others in your community.

The cost to haul away junk depends on the haul’s size. A single item costs $60 to $150 to haul, with each additional item adding $20 to $40 to the total price. Hauling away a full truckload of trash or other junk will run $400 to $800.

Yes, some furniture retailers will haul away your old furniture when they deliver your new items. This service may be included in your purchase price or offered at a discounted rate. It's important to check with the store to see if they provide furniture removal and whether there are any requirements, such as a minimum purchase. Utilizing this service can save you time and effort in disposing of your old furniture.

In many cases, you can dispose of furniture in a dumpster, but regulations vary by location. Some areas prohibit items like mattresses or upholstered furniture due to environmental concerns.
