Trusted Junk Removal You Can Count On
This is the second time I have used Express. Both times, I received excellent service from very courteous young men. They called about 15 minutes before arrival, were on time, had everything loaded quickly—I highly recommend them!

Two nice, respectful young men were strong and careful to remove old bedroom furniture from second story home. Also took an old couch from the basement…they charge according to the amount of space it requires in the truck. I will definitely call for future removal.

FAQs About Items We Take
What types of items can junk removal companies take?
Most junk removal services take common household and property items such as furniture, appliances, mattresses, electronics, yard debris, and renovation materials. As long as the items are non-hazardous and safe to handle, they can usually be hauled away.
Do you take furniture and large bulky items?

Can you remove appliances like refrigerators and washers?
Yes. Appliances such as refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, stoves, and dishwashers can be removed. Some appliances may require special recycling due to refrigerants or electronic components.
Do you take mattresses and box springs?
Yes. Mattress removal and box spring disposal are common services. These items are often recycled or processed separately due to their size and materials.
Will you take yard waste and outdoor debris?
Yes. Branches, leaves, fencing, small sheds, patio furniture, and other outdoor debris can typically be removed, as long as the materials are not contaminated with hazardous substances.
Do you take construction or renovation debris?
Yes. Non-hazardous construction debris such as drywall, wood, flooring, tiles, cabinets, and fixtures can usually be hauled away. Heavy materials like concrete, brick, or roofing shingles may have weight-based limits.
What items can’t you take?
Junk removal companies generally cannot take hazardous materials such as chemicals, asbestos, oil, fuel, paint thinners, medical waste, or explosives. These items require specialized disposal methods regulated by law.
