Scheduling & Logistics
How far in advance do I need to schedule?
Not far at all. We offer same-day service when you call before noon, and next-day service is almost always available. For larger projects like estate cleanouts or demolition jobs, scheduling a few days ahead helps us make sure we have the right crew and equipment. But for standard junk removal, calling today for service today or tomorrow is completely normal.
Do I need to be home when you arrive?
Ideally, yes — at least for the walk-through and price confirmation. After that, you can leave us to work if you need to. If you absolutely can’t be there, we can arrange access with a garage code, gate code, or other arrangement. Just let us know when you schedule so we can plan accordingly.
What time of day do you work?
We typically schedule between 7 AM and 6 PM, seven days a week. We’ll confirm your appointment window when you book and give you a heads-up call or text when we’re on our way. If you need early morning or evening service for a special situation, just ask — we’re flexible.
Can you handle large or multi-day jobs?
Yes. For large estate cleanouts, demolition projects, or commercial jobs that require multiple trips, we can schedule over consecutive days or even set up recurring pickups for ongoing projects like construction sites. We’ll give you a total project estimate upfront so there are no surprises.
Items & Disposal
Do you take hazardous materials?
We cannot remove hazardous materials including asbestos, liquid chemicals, containers with liquid paint, medical waste, biohazardous materials, or compressed gas cylinders. For hazardous waste disposal in Larimer County, contact the Larimer County Hazardous Waste Program. If you’re unsure whether something qualifies, just ask us — we’re happy to help you figure out the right disposal path.
Do you recycle or donate items?
Absolutely. We sort through every load and separate recyclable materials (metals, electronics, certain construction materials) and usable items (furniture, working appliances, household goods). Recyclables go to local recycling facilities, and usable items get donated to Northern Colorado charities and organizations. We believe in keeping as much out of the landfill as possible.
Can you remove items from upstairs, basements, or tight spaces?
Yes — we go wherever the junk is. Upstairs bedrooms, basements, attics, crawl spaces, backyards behind fences — you name it. We do all the heavy lifting and navigating tight spaces. That’s what you’re paying us for. Just let us know the layout when you call so we come prepared.
What about old tires, batteries, or electronics?
We take all of those. Tires, car batteries, electronics (TVs, computers, printers, monitors), and e-waste are all items we handle regularly. We route them to the appropriate recycling facilities. There may be a small additional fee for tires depending on quantity, but we’ll let you know upfront.
