Chicago’s Fastest Apartment Cleanout Service

Chicago apartment cleanouts come in two varieties: move-out cleanouts where you’re the departing tenant, and tenant-left-behind situations where a landlord needs a unit cleared for the next occupant.

We handle both. Our crew arrives, clears everything on your removal list, and hauls it away in one trip. We work quickly because we know turnaround time matters.

Common Apartment Cleanout Scenarios

  • Moving out - removing furniture and items you don’t want to take
  • Tenant left belongings - clearing a unit after a move-out or eviction
  • Estate situation - clearing a deceased family member’s apartment
  • Downsizing - removing the bulk of a residence to help someone transition to a smaller space
  • Post-renovation - clearing construction debris and replaced items

What We Remove

  • All furniture (sofas, beds, tables, dressers, wardrobes)
  • Appliances (fridges, washer/dryers, microwaves)
  • Boxes and bags of belongings
  • Rugs, curtains, and window treatments
  • Electronics and TVs
  • Miscellaneous clutter and junk

Service FAQ

Common Questions About This Service

How long does a full apartment cleanout take?

Studios and one-bedroom apartments are typically cleared in 2–4 hours. Two-bedrooms take 4–6 hours. Three-bedrooms can run a full day or split into a day-and-a-half. Chicago walk-ups add time versus high-rise elevator buildings - a 4th-floor walk-up two-bedroom can take 50% longer than the same job in an elevator building.

Can you work around my move-out deadline or lease end date?

Yes. End-of-month timing is what we plan our schedule around - last weekend of the month and the 30th/31st are our busiest windows. Book at least a week ahead for end-of-month slots. If your lease ends mid-month or you have a flexible window, we usually have same-week openings. Tell us your hard deadline and we'll work backwards.

What does a typical apartment cleanout cost in Chicago?

Studio: $399–$549. One-bedroom: $479–$679. Two-bedroom: $599–$899. Three-bedroom: $899–$1,499. Walk-ups above the 2nd floor add $15 per flight. High-rise elevator and dock coordination is included in the base price. Final number is confirmed on site after the crew sees the volume and access.

Will you handle the building paperwork and Certificate of Insurance?

Yes. We provide COIs free for any Chicago building that requires one - email info@junkmoovers.com with your building's certificate-holder details. We also handle freight elevator coordination, loading dock check-in, and any building-specific move-out rules.
