Professional junk removal services clear out unwanted items from your home, garage, yard, or job site quickly and responsibly. The national average cost is around $300 for a half-truck load. Most companies price by the volume of junk loaded, with labor, hauling, and responsible disposal all included.
Most junk removal companies price by the fraction of their truck that your junk fills. A standard junk removal truck holds about 10–12 cubic yards. Prices are lower per cubic yard when you fill more of the truck.
