Some charities—think Goodwill, Habitat for Humanity, or the Salvation Army—will pick up gently used furniture or appliances at no charge. Broken or worn-out items, however, usually need a paid junk-removal service. Check with your city, too; many run bulk-item or spring-cleanup days that allow one-time free pickups.
The smallest roll-off dumpsters hold about 2 cubic yards—roughly 6 feet by 8 feet and 3 feet deep—and handle around 400 pounds of debris. They’re perfect for light cleanups, such as closet purges or small bathroom demos. Expect a weekly rental of $75 to $200. Need even less room? A collapsible dumpster bag runs about $100 to $180 for the same period.
Yes. Most junk-removal companies sort out anything that can be donated or recycled first, then haul the rest to an approved landfill. This two-step process keeps usable items out of the dump and ensures everything else is discarded according to local regulations.
While tipping isn’t mandatory, it’s a thoughtful way to thank haulers for heavy lifting and careful handling. Many homeowners offer a flat $20 to $50—or 15% to 20% of the bill—when the crew navigates stairs, removes extra-bulky items, or finishes the job ahead of schedule. A quick online review or cold drinks are also appreciated if a cash tip isn’t practical.
