Transparent Pricing: Our 28 cubic yard trucks are twice the size of most competitors. Our half truckload equals their full truck at a cheaper price, and our full truckload equals TWO of their trucks! Save big with Junk Busterz. Single item pickup starts at $99 – bulky or heavier items may cost more. The price you see is what you pay – no hidden fees or surprise charges. Prices may vary slightly for items requiring special handling (hazardous materials, electronics recycling) or challenging access conditions.

Truck Size Comparison: Why We're the Better Deal

Not all “full truckloads” are created equal. Here’s how we stack up against the big-name competitor.

One Junk Busterz truck = TWO of theirs. Same junk hauled, roughly half the cost.

The decision is easy — get rid of the junk and save real money.

Pricing FAQ

Everything you need to know about our junk removal pricing before you book.
Standard pricing includes ground-floor and single-flight access. If the crew must carry items up or down more than one flight of stairs, or navigate a particularly tight basement with limited headroom, a small labor surcharge may apply. We always confirm any additional charge on-site before we begin loading, so there are no surprises.
No problem — you only pay for the space you actually use. Our trucks are clearly marked by quarter-truck increments, so if your job grows from a 1/4 to a 1/2 truckload, we simply adjust the price to the next tier. You are never charged for empty space, and we will show you the fill level before finalizing the bill.
The price you see is the price you pay for standard household and commercial junk. The only items that may carry a supplemental fee are those requiring special disposal — such as hazardous materials, certain electronics, tires, and appliances containing refrigerants. If any of these apply, we will tell you upfront before loading begins.
Yes, we offer single-item pickups starting at $99. That is ideal for one bulky piece like a couch, mattress, or appliance. If you are unsure whether your job qualifies as a single-item pickup, send us a photo or give us a call and we will give you a firm quote right over the phone.
The calculator gives you a firm, flat-rate estimate based on typical load sizes. When our crew arrives, they will assess the actual volume and type of junk before any work begins. If the load matches the estimate, that is your final price. If it is larger or smaller, we adjust to the correct tier on the spot. You approve the price before we lift a thing.
We accept cash, all major credit cards, and contactless payment. Payment is due once the job is complete and you have inspected the work. We do not require deposits or prepayment for standard residential pickups.
