"This is probably the 5th time I've hired BK Hauling in the past ten years. It's been a couple years since the last time so I was just delighted they're still around. I called LATE last night and left a voicemail, and he was at my house before 9AM. This is the biggest hauling job I've ever needed because I went through the entire house, basement, crawl space and filled up my garage with everything I don't need. The kids are grown and it's time to pare down. He went to the basement and broke down a couple heavy tables, too. I was sure he'd need 2-3 trips but this guy can pack a truck. In less than two hours it was all gone -- all in one load. He swept up and left everything perfect. Such a nice guy, too. I just can't say enough about BK Hauling."

"I made the absolute right decision going with Yard Right [Y.R.]! Mark and his son Matt were great! Mark & crew showed up on the appointed day, even though a crew member quit that same morning, worked all day, and was consistent regarding this work ethic for the duration of the project. Initially Mark estimated that the job would take 4 days, but because he had one less employee, for the first few days, the project took almost 7days. While Y.R. did manage to get additional help for two days, even short handed they never miss a beat. Along the way, I decided that I wanted stepping stones from the walking paths to the backyard, wood timber to trim around the back shed fencing, moving several boulders to accent the new pathways, etc.. Although the extra items pushed the final cost over my initial budget, it was well worth it. For the services rendered, it was great value for the money! I really appreciated that Mark did the work himself. Several owners indicated they’d send their workers and would come out to oversee the work, which I wasn’t comfortable with. But Mark was here each and every day and was fully engaged in the work, from the first shovel to the last brick. And talk about keeping his composure under pressure—having to deal with my ideas and changes, or watching my pup eat part of a crew member’s lunch, or mashing his finger when we were hunting for stepping stones—whatever it was, Mark kept going with a smile and good spirit. On the last day, he even picked up cinder blocks for me for another project only to find that they were the wrong blocks and then had to drive back across town to return them. This guy is as good as gold!! My next door neighbor who does his own brick work commented on what a great job Mark had done, as has several of my other neighbors. I’m very happy with the work that was done. I would definitely hire Yard Right Landscaping LLC again for landscaping work."

"Contacted them for an estimate, chose them over two others, not the cheapest by far, but carried a name brand door, double wall and insulated. Initial quote estimated door not to be available for 14-18 weeks, surprised us when they called to tell us door was in after 3. They did work with us as we were making repairs to the garage door area. Installed door by Brandon who did an outstanding job. All is well at this time."

"This was our third time using Moving Ahead Services. Each time, I've done my due diligence and gotten quotes from a couple other companies, and Moving Ahead has consistently had competitive pricing, if not the best rate. Each time they have been extremely helpful and responsive through the process, and transparent when it comes to services and pricing-- I go into it knowing exactly what to expect and what I'll pay, and each time they have delivered exactly what they say they will. The crews are always friendly, professional, and careful with our things. 100% recommend."

FAQs for waste, junk, building materials and debris removal and hauling projects in Columbus, OH

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.

  • 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.
