How to Prepare Your Home for Junk Removal

Sort your items first

Before the crew arrives, walk through your home and decide exactly what stays and what goes. Mark items for removal with a sticky note or coloured tape, and separate anything you want to keep. This avoids accidental removal and speeds up the pickup.

If you are unsure about an item, set it aside — our crew can advise on the spot whether it is best donated, recycled or disposed of.

Group items by room

Grouping junk by room makes the clearance faster and helps the crew plan the loading order. Pile smaller items into boxes or bags so they can be carried out in one trip rather than piece by piece.

Clear the access route

• Move anything breakable away from doorways and corridors
• Roll up rugs that could trip the crew
• Clear a path from the junk to the nearest exit
• Reserve the service lift and loading bay with your building
• Check parking access for the truck

Protect your floors and walls

Our crew takes care to protect your home, but a little help goes a long way. If you have delicate flooring, let us know in advance so we bring extra protection. Remove wall art and mirrors along the route to avoid accidental knocks.

Have your photos and quote ready

If you have already sent photos and received a quote, keep it handy. If anything has changed — more items, heavier pieces, different access — let the crew know on arrival so the price can be confirmed before lifting begins.
