How much does junk removal cost?
Junk removal is priced by how much space your items take in the truck: $99–$150 for a minimum load, $320–$480 for a quarter truck, $500–$620 for a half truck, and $650–$780 for a full truck. Weight, access, and item type can adjust the final price — Take Care Junk always quotes upfront with no hidden fees.
Our Truck-Load Price Guide
We charge by volume — the share of the truck your items fill — and you get that number before we lift anything.
| Truck Space | Typical Price* | Roughly Fits |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum Load | $99–$150 | A few items — a couch or a small pile |
| 1/4 Truck | $180–$280 | A bedroom or small garage corner |
| 1/2 Truck | $320–$480 | A packed garage or several rooms |
| 3/4 Truck | $500–$620 | A large cleanout or small estate |
| Full Truck | $650–$780 | A full home or big property cleanout |
*Estimates for the Sacramento area. Your exact price depends on volume, weight, and access — we always confirm it upfront before any work begins.
What Every Quote Includes
Your price covers all the labor, loading, hauling, and disposal or recycling fees. Our crew does the lifting, from any floor and any room — nothing has to be dragged to the curb first.
- All labor and heavy lifting
- Loading and haul-away
- Dump and recycling fees
- Cleanup of the area
- Donation drop-off when items qualify
What Moves Your Final Price
- Volume — the main factor. You pay for the fraction of the truck your items fill.
- Weight and material — heavy debris like concrete, dirt, tile, or roofing costs more to dispose of.
- Access — a curbside pile is quicker than a third-floor apartment or a long backyard path.
- Special-handling items — refrigerators, TVs and e-waste, and mattresses carry extra disposal steps.
