"We had to call Rubbish Rescue & Relief LLC for a very difficult biohazard situation in one of our Airbnb units while we were out of the country on spring break, and they were outstanding from start to finish. Communication with Harvey was prompt, clear, and professional, which gave us real peace of mind even from a distance. They followed through on everything they promised, including using smoke eliminator cleaning throughout the unit, disinfecting floors, chairs, and tables, wiping down all woodwork and surfaces, applying carpet odor eliminator treatment, and safely collecting and boxing all needles for proper disposal. They also ensured all doors and windows were secured before leaving. The unit was left clean, disinfected, and in a safe condition. I highly recommend Rubbish Rescue & Relief LLC and would absolutely use them again."

"All Legend Services provided an exemplary service for us. Laurence and his team removed huge piles of brush, limbs, branches and old fencing from our yard, needing to go up and down many steps and hills to complete the job. Laurence responded quickly to my request and was able to do the job on the day I requested. He is an extremely polite, pleasant and knowledgeable young man and I will have no concerns hiring him again or recommending him to others. "

"Jonathan and Jose removed a sofa and recliner due to bedbugs. It was the first time they dealt with bedbugs but they did it like professionals. I live on the second floor so it was no easy task. They were also very friendly and their price was extremely reasonable. I would definitely recommend them "

FAQs for waste, junk, building materials and debris removal and hauling projects in Philadelphia, PA

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.
