Garage, attic & basement cleanouts

The spaces that fill up quietly over twenty years: a garage you can't park in, an attic you can't walk through, a basement full of boxes no one has opened. We clear them, any size, and look for what can be sold or donated before anything is thrown out.

A garage packed with mowers, tools, furniture, and boxes

Who this is for

  • Homeowners reclaiming a garage, attic, or basement
  • Families getting a house ready to sell
  • Anyone downsizing to a smaller home
  • Landlords clearing what a tenant left behind

What's included

Any size, from one corner to the whole space

A few heavy items, one packed room, or every shelf and rafter. Every job gets the same care and a price at the walkthrough.

We do the lifting and hauling

Heavy furniture, old appliances, workbenches, and boxes down narrow attic stairs. You point, we carry.

Resell and donate first

Tools, outdoor equipment, and solid furniture often have resale value, and that comes off your cost or is split with you after the sale. Usable household items are donated.

Left broom-clean

Once it's empty, we sweep it out so the space is ready to use, store, or show.

Before the walkthrough

  • Pull out anything you're keeping, or tell us at the walkthrough and we'll work around it.
  • Let us know about old paint, chemicals, or propane tanks so we can plan and price their proper disposal.
  • Check boxes and drawers for papers, photos, and keepsakes before we start.

Selling the property? We can be paid through title at closing, with nothing out of pocket up front. How paying at closing works.

Common questions

Can you take old paint and chemicals?
Yes. Old paint and common household chemicals are part of the cleanout, and we make sure they go to proper disposal instead of the trash. Disposal sites charge more for these, so there's a small added cost, included in your price at the walkthrough. We don't handle asbestos, biohazards, or other truly hazardous materials.
Do I need to sort everything first?
No. Just tell us what you're keeping. We sort the rest into resell, donate, and dispose as we go.
Is this the same as garage junk removal?
It covers the same work: we haul out everything you don't want, from old furniture and appliances to boxes and broken equipment, anywhere in Sussex, Morris, Passaic, Bergen, and Warren counties. The difference is what happens next. Tools, outdoor gear, and solid furniture are resold or donated first, and only what can't be saved goes to disposal.
