Home/What It Costs
What a cleanout actually costs, and what drives the number.
No flat rate, because there is no flat job. Here is exactly what we price on, what is included, and how to get a real number in about a day.
Tell Diane what the job involves.
Choose the space, how full it is and the access. Your answers go into the estimate request, so you do not have to type them again. Diane provides the price after reviewing the job.
What needs to be cleared?
How full is it?
How is the access?
You can request an estimate even if you are unsure. Photos or a walkthrough help Diane understand the work and give you a price.
5 things decide the number.
- 01
Volume
How much actually leaves the property, measured in truck and trailer space. This is the single biggest factor and it is why photographs help so much.
- 02
Labor and time
How many people, for how long. A packed garage can take longer than a sparse 3 bedroom house.
- 03
Access
Stairs, long carries, narrow gates, gated communities and where the truck can physically park. Distance from the pile to the trailer is real money.
- 04
Sorting
A straight haul is fast. Opening every box to recover documents, photographs and valuables before anything leaves is slower, more careful work, and on an estate it is worth it.
- 05
Disposal and special items
Dump and recycling fees are built into the quote. Tires, some appliances and anything hazardous carry their own fees, named up front.
One number, and it is the one you pay.
- All labor and the crew, however many people the job needs
- The truck, the trailer and the loading
- Dump fees and recycling fees, built into the quote
- Donation runs for anything usable
- Sweeping up behind us
- The estimate itself, always free, with no charge for the visit
If we find something during the job that genuinely changes the scope, you get a call before we keep going, not a bigger invoice at the end.
Pricing
Why is there no price list on this page?
Because a flat rate would be a guess, and you would end up paying for the guess. A 1 bedroom apartment that is mostly empty and a 4 bedroom house packed to the ceiling are not the same job, and neither is a garage you can back a trailer up to versus a third floor walk up. We quote what is actually in front of us. The estimate is free either way.
Can you price it over the phone?
Often, yes. Text photos of the room or the pile to (480) 304-0550 and we can usually give you a number from that. Bigger jobs get a free walkthrough, same day or next day.
Is disposal included in the price?
Yes. The quote covers the labor, the truck, the loading and the dump and recycling fees. You are not billed separately for the landfill afterwards.
What makes a job cost more than people expect?
Stairs, long carries, tight or gated access, and heavy items like safes, pianos, hot tubs and treadmills. Sorting adds time too. If you need every box opened and checked for documents before anything leaves, that is a slower and more careful job than a straight haul, and it is worth paying for on an estate.
What will you not take?
Paint, solvents, pesticides, motor oil, propane tanks, car batteries, medical waste and anything containing asbestos. Those need a household hazardous waste facility, and we will tell you where to take them. Tires and some appliances carry an extra disposal fee, which we will name up front rather than adding later.
