What we haul
Our Junk Removal Services
Most of our week is one of these six jobs. If yours is not on the list, text a photo and ask.

Specialty & Large Items
Hot tubs cut up where they sit ($300 to $600 and up), sheds taken down to the slab, pianos, playsets and the safe no one can move.

Appliance Removal
Refrigerators, washers, dryers, stoves and freezers, carried out of the kitchen or garage and taken to a recycler that handles the refrigerant.

Eco-Friendly Disposal
Clean furniture to a Sacramento charity when we can, metal to scrap, the rest to the transfer station. Charities refuse stained or broken pieces, so we say “when we can”.
Learn moreThe Take Care Junk Difference
Why Sacramento Chooses Take Care Junk
Most junk removal ads read the same. The difference shows up at the door: does the truck come when promised, does the number grow once the pile is on it, is the driveway swept after.
The crew that quoted it carries it out, in a truck that does not leave oil on your driveway, and the sweep-up is part of the price.
- Owner on the quote and on the job
- The price you hear is the price you pay
- No hidden dump fees, no tips expected
- Clean trucks: no oil on your driveway
- Swept floor before we leave
- Evenings and weekends, 7 days
Four steps. You only do the first one.
How Our Junk Removal Process Works
- 01
Text a photo, get a price
Send a picture to (916) 770-7619 or book online. One photo of the pile is enough for a price range.
- 02
Pick your pickup time
A morning or afternoon window, usually today or tomorrow, evenings and weekends included.
- 03
We carry it out
Garage, attic, upstairs bedroom, back of the yard. You point, we carry, take apart and load.
- 04
We sweep up and haul it
The floor is swept before we leave, and the load goes to the right facility: charity, scrap recycler or transfer station.
Upfront, volume-based pricing
How Much Does Junk Removal Cost in Sacramento?
You pay for the share of the truck your items fill, and you get that number before we lift anything. Labor, loading, hauling and disposal are in it. Real weight (concrete, dirt, solid wood) and long carries are the two things that move it, and we say so on the phone.
Minimum load$99–$150
One couch, a few boxes, a mattress
1/4 truck$180–$280
A couch and loveseat, or a dresser and a bed
1/2 truck$320–$480
A full living room, or half a garage
3/4 truck$500–$620
A whole apartment, or a packed garage
Full truck$850–$1,000
A house or an estate cleanout, in one trip
*Estimates for the Sacramento area. A full load is $850 in our 15-yard truck and $1,000 in our 20-yard truck. Weight, access and item type can adjust the final price; we always confirm it upfront before any work begins.

Why Choose Take Care Junk Hauling? Four Customers Answer
Four reviews from Google and Yelp, unedited. They cover what matters: when we came, what it cost, who showed up.
“Serge was amazing. I texted in the morning and he was there to pick up within 2 hours. I had enough junk, donation, electronics and misc stuff to fill the whole truck bed. He also took a washer and dryer, and broke down a storage shed.”
Jessica Jerozal, Google“Serge answered my initial inquiry about a garage clean out in just a few minutes, did an estimate, and showed up the next morning as promised. Quick work of a big job and he cleaned up afterwards. Final price was actually less than the estimate.”
Linda Myers Russell, Google“I’m a realtor and have used them for any clients that need junk hauled away. I had a really steep basement in one to get appliances out of. Usually there are last-minute items that you have to add and they’re so accommodating.”
Clara Tucker, Google“Serge arrived on time, impressive considering I made the appointment that morning. I texted pics and he provided an estimate before arrival. He and his partner cleared out my garage in almost no time. Love supporting local businesses!”

Benefits of Professional Junk Removal
You do not always need a truck. Here is when you do.
- City bulky pickup is free for City of Sacramento residents with city trash service, a few items at a time, by appointment. Good for one couch if you can wait and carry it to the curb.
- Charity pickup works for clean, working furniture. Habitat for Humanity ReStore, Goodwill and The Salvation Army take some pieces, and some will come get them. A refused couch is still on your porch.
- Self-haul to the Sacramento Recycling and Transfer Station or Kiefer Landfill means a truck, a second person, a free morning and a fee by the ton.
- Call us when it is upstairs, when it has to be gone today, or when it is a whole garage, unit or house. No rental truck, no dump line, no lifting.
Junk removal Sacramento
Junk removal in Sacramento, from the first photo to the swept floor
Most jobs start with a text. A garage with one path down the middle. A sectional that will not make the turn on the stairs. A rental where the tenant left the beds, the fridge and a full closet. Serge looks at the photo and texts back a price range, usually within the hour during business hours.
Take Care Junk is Serge Pavlenko’s company: started in 2017, run from 524 Houston St in West Sacramento, still one local crew rather than a franchise with a call center. The 255 five-star Google reviews come from that crew’s work across Sacramento, Yolo, Placer, El Dorado and Solano counties.
What a job with us looks like
- You text a photo or call. (916) 770-7619, or book online and save $20. One picture of the pile is enough for a range.
- We confirm the price at the door. We look at the load and the path out, then give you the number before anything is lifted. If the pile matches the photo, the price matches the range.
- The crew carries it out. Garage, attic, upstairs bedroom, back of the yard. You point; we carry, take apart what will not fit the door, and load.
- We pack the truck tight. You pay for the share of the truck you fill, so a well-packed truck means fewer trips and a smaller bill.
- We sweep up and haul it to the right place. The spot is swept before we pull out, and the load is sorted in the truck, not at your curb.
What junk removal costs in Sacramento
You pay for the share of the truck your junk fills. Labor, loading, hauling and dump fees are inside the number.
| Load | Typical price | What that looks like |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum | $99 to $150 | A couch, a fridge, or a small pile by the garage door |
| Quarter truck | $180 to $280 | A bedroom set, or one corner of a garage |
| Half truck | $320 to $480 | A lightly filled garage, or a few rooms |
| Full truck | $850 to $1,000 | A packed garage, a whole house, a big property cleanout |
Heavy material (concrete, dirt, solid wood), a long carry or a third-floor walk-up can move the number; we flag that when we quote. Hot tubs run $300 to $600 and up. Full breakdown in our junk removal price guide.
Homes, estates and businesses
Most calls are residential junk removal: a couch, a fridge, a mattress, a hot tub, a shed, or the full garage cleanout where the car finally goes back inside. Estate cleanouts and senior downsizing get a slower pace: the family sorts, we haul what they point at.
For property managers and landlords we do apartment trash-outs and tenant move-outs, usually between the walk-through and the cleaners. Offices, retail and recurring pickups are on the commercial junk removal page.
What we take, and what we don’t
Furniture, appliances, mattresses, yard waste, hot tubs, sheds, playsets, small amounts of electronics, and single-material loads such as metal, concrete or clean wood. We do not take hazardous waste, mixed construction and demolition debris, or house roofing. The exact list is on what we don’t take.
Questions people ask before they book
Who is Take Care Junk a good fit for?
Anyone who would rather not spend a Saturday in line at Kiefer Landfill: homeowners, families clearing a parent’s house, landlords turning a unit, and businesses that cannot pull staff off the floor to carry desks.
How do I get a price?
Text a few photos to (916) 770-7619 or book online. Serge replies with a range. The final number is confirmed on site, and it covers labor, loading, hauling and disposal.
Do I have to move anything to the curb?
No. We carry from garages, basements, upstairs bedrooms, side yards and backyards. Clearing a path helps, but it is not required.
What don’t you take?
Hazardous waste (liquid paint, chemicals, solvents, propane, asbestos), mixed construction and demolition debris, house roofing and biohazard jobs. Metal only, concrete only or clean wood only loads are fine.
Do you work with property managers and businesses?
Yes. Unit turnovers, tenant move-outs, office and retail cleanouts and recurring pickups. Repeat commercial accounts can get volume discounts and net 15 or net 30 terms.

Serge was awesome to work with. I am very grateful I found his company. I contacted them on a Tuesday and by Wednesday the hot tub was gone. He was on time and worked hard. Left the area cleaned up and I’m so excited to have my backyard back!
