Chicago’s Garage Cleanout Specialists

Garages accumulate stuff for years. Old bicycles, broken tools, holiday decorations from 2009, your college futon, boxes you never unpacked from the last move. It adds up to a space that no longer functions the way it should.

Our crew arrives with a full truck and the manpower to clear an average Chicago garage in 2–4 hours. We sort as we go - anything reusable gets flagged for donation, metals get recycled, and the rest gets hauled away responsibly.

What We Clear Out

  • Old furniture and mattresses
  • Bicycles and sports equipment
  • Power tools and hardware
  • Paint cans and old chemicals (we advise on safe disposal of hazmat)
  • Cardboard boxes and paper
  • Automotive fluids containers (empty or dry)
  • Lumber and construction scraps
  • Holiday decorations and bins
  • General household overflow
  • Appliances and electronics

Common Questions About This Service

Do I need to pre-sort items before the crew arrives?

No. Crews sort as they load - donatable to donation, recyclable to recycling, the rest to disposal. The only thing you need to do is set aside what's staying. Label keepers, push them to one side, or tape a "KEEP" sign on them. Everything else, we take.

Will you take paint, gasoline, motor oil, or chemicals from my garage?

No - these are household hazardous waste and have to go through specific disposal channels. Chicago's Household Chemicals & Computer Recycling Facility on Goose Island accepts most for free from residents. We can take fully dried latex paint and lawn equipment with the fuel drained.

Can you remove old garage shelving, workbenches, and built-in cabinets?

Yes - shelving units (metal, wood, plastic), workbenches, pegboards, and built-in cabinets all standard. Free-standing units come out easily. Built-in cabinets and workbenches bolted to walls or floors take 20–40 minutes to demo and remove. The crew brings basic demo tools.

How much does a typical garage cleanout cost in Chicago?

Small (corner cleanout, 1/4 truck): $249–$329. One-car partial (1/4 to 1/2 truck): $329–$479. One-car full (1/2 to 3/4 truck): $479–$549. Two-car full (3/4 to full truck): $549–$679.
