Junk in the Trunk Rate Sheet
Our
truck beds are 12 feet long, eight feet wide, and five feet high. Standard
rates are based on volume and are set at fractions of a truck load (see
chart below). The rates include loading*, dump fees, and cleanup.
Note: Our trucks are larger than those of most companies in the industry. When receiving estimates, be sure to compare price per cubic yard.
| Fraction of Truck | Approx. Cubic Yards | Visual Reference** | Price |
| Minimum | $120.00 | ||
| 1/8 | 2.25 | 1 couch, 1 small file cabinet | $134.00 |
| 1/6 | 3 | 1 couch, 1 stove | $175.00 |
| 1/4 | 4.5 |
2 couches, 1 twin mattress |
$250.00 |
| 1/3 | 6 | 3 couches | $318.00 |
| 3/8 | 6.75 | 3 couches, 1 stove, small file cabinet | $348.00 |
| 1/2 | 9 |
4 couches, 1 stove |
$428.00 |
| 5/8 | 11 | 5 couches, 1 stove | $488.00 |

| Full Load | 18 | 9 couches | $600.00 |
*30 minutes of loading time is permitted for every 1/6 of a truck load.
That is plenty of time under most circumstances. In rare cases,
when extra time is required, $25.00 will be assessed for each additional
15 minutes of loading time.
**To help you understand how much junk we are able to remove with each fraction of a truck, please use the following as visual references: Couch=2 cubic yards, standard stove=1 cubic yard, twin mattress=.5 cubic yard, small file cabinet=.25 cubic yard.
Bedload
System for Heavy Loads
Junk removal trucks have Gross Vehicle Weights (GVW) which limit the amount
of dirt, rock, plaster, and other heavy material that can be loaded on
our trucks. These materials can only be loaded one foot high across the
twelve by eight foot dimensions of our trucks (Bedload) in order to stay
within the GVW.
Due to the price per ton we pay for disposal and extra labor typically required in loading heavy debris, a different rate structure applies to Bedloads. Please view the following chart:

Where
does the junk go?
Junk in the Trunk recycles, donates, or reuses as much of the junk we
remove as possible through our Gone For GoodSM network
of charity partners.
Our ECOVERY BoxSM
allows us to separate and protect items we donate to charity. Charity
tax receipts may be sent to clients upon request. Please keep in mind
that items may be rejected by charities. Any leftover items are taken
to a local dump.
What
can't you take?
It is not legal for us to remove paint, chemicals, fertilizers, solvents,
oils, and car batteries. If you allow latex paint to harden by leaving
the can open or mixing with cat litter, it becomes safe for us to remove.
Junk in the Trunk will harden paint for you for $5 per gallon if arranged
in advance.
Are
there any special disposal fees?
To keep toxins out of landfills, we charge $10 to safely recycle computer
monitors and tires. There are no other special fees.
What
are my payment options?
Junk in the Trunk accepts checks and credit cards. Please ask about invoicing
if you cannot be onsite. Discounts are available for multiple truck loads,
repeat clients, and commercial customers.
