Let’s face it. That’s not just clutter you’ve got building up in a certain room of your home. It’s a whole bundle of items that feel like a nightmare to sort. It would be easy if you could just toss everything in frustration, but you can’t. After all, there’s bound to be a lot of things you want to hold on to buried amongst the stuff that’s pure trash. No wonder some days you don’t even want to deal with it. So don’t. That’s our job at Fresh Start Clean Out, Inc. See, unlike other major removal companies, Fresh Start Clean Out Inc. doesn’t just take everything away without a second thought. We understand that your things are valuable to you. Even the things you can’t quite figure out whether or not they’re worth keeping. That’s why we’re more consultative and caring than those other guys who see it all as “junk” could ever be. We don’t move a paper clip until we work closely with you to fully take your feelings into consideration as we help you decide what stays and what goes. A one-day consultation is all it takes to begin. From there, we’re ready to move to a stage of rapidly dividing and conquering clutter for you – preserving what’s absolutely needing to stay and swiftly moving out the items that needed to leave your home yesterday. What’s left? The magical feeling of knowing that your Fresh Start – that moment you thought would never happen – has finally arrived. With Fresh Start Clean Out, Inc., you’ve got a new space. The first item we’ll put back into that space is total clarity. You can also call us on this number: (630) 696-3069

FAQs for waste, junk, building materials and debris removal and hauling projects in Ottawa, IL

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. It's best to check with your local waste management authorities or dumpster rental company to understand what's allowed.
