“Louis was so wonderful! Communicated ahead of time to let me know when he would be arriving, expertly disassembled a couch to remove it from the apartment and left the space immaculate afterwards!”
Richmond Pricing
How much does junk removal cost in Richmond?
One sofa is $126. A queen mattress is $103. A garage that’s quietly filled up for years is usually a half truck, $431. Every number below is what you actually pay in the Richmond area — flat, quoted from a photo before anyone drives out, with carry-out, loading and disposal already inside it.
The minimum order is $75, and the quote you get already includes everything — labor, loading, disposal and tax.
The two ways a job gets priced
Name the things and you get item pricing — a fixed price per piece. If you can’t, you get truck-load pricing: you’re paying for the space it takes up.
| How full | Price | Roughly |
|---|---|---|
| 1/4 truck | $241 | a small bedroom — bed, dresser, a few boxes |
| 3/8 truck | $338 | a single-car garage’s back wall |
| 1/2 truck | $431 | the most common cleanout size we run |
| 5/8 truck | $513 | a two-car garage, or a small apartment |
| 3/4 truck | $587 | a garage plus a patio |
| 7/8 truck | $661 | a full two-bedroom clear-out |
| Full truck | $732 | a whole-house load |
What actually moves the number here
Less than people expect. Stairs don’t change your price, and neither does same-day. What moves it is weight, volume, and where the load has to go.
What bulk & brush refuses
The municipal bulk-and-brush service won’t take renovation material — carpet, drywall and brick are all outside it — which is exactly what a remodel produces.
Henrico moves faster than the city
Response times differ sharply by jurisdiction: Henrico can be same-day where the city side runs closer to a fortnight. We work to your date rather than a queue.
Dense material
Concrete, tile and roofing price by weight rather than by volume, so a small masonry pile can outweigh a living room of furniture.
Bulk & brush is free — but not for renovation debris
For ordinary household bulk on a scheduled day, the municipal service is free and worth using.
It explicitly refuses the renovation stream: carpet, drywall, brick and the rest of a remodel. Add the wait — up to a couple of weeks on the city side — and closings, turnovers in The Fan and post-renovation cleanups generally need a crew with a fixed date.

Richmond pricing FAQs
Does the price change between the city and Henrico?
No. Downtown, The Fan, Scott’s Addition, Short Pump and Midlothian all use the same flat list.
Can you take carpet and drywall from a remodel?
Yes. That’s the material the municipal bulk-and-brush service refuses, and it’s priced by weight.
How long is the wait?
We work to a date you choose. Same-day is normal if you book early.
Do stairs cost extra?
No. Carry-out is included in the quoted price.
Is there tax on top?
No. A Virginia junk removal bill from us carries no tax line; the flat photo quote is what runs, with a $75 minimum.
Do I need to be home for the pickup?
Not if the crew can reach it without you — an alley in the Fan, a driveway in Henrico, a Church Hill back porch. We send photos of the empty space afterwards.
What does junk removal cost in Richmond?
Single items carry fixed prices: a sofa is $126, a queen mattress $103, a refrigerator $164. Loads are priced by truck share, $241 for a quarter up to $732 for a full truck, and no job goes below $75.
Is there sales tax on junk removal in Virginia?
Virginia’s sales tax is charged on goods and a short set of listed services, and taking away your unwanted items isn’t one of them. Your Richmond quote doesn’t add a tax line.
Why hire a hauler when the City’s bulk and brush is free?
If the pile is already at the curb, fits the four-foot limit, has no carpet, drywall or bricks in it, and can wait for your recycling-week trash day, the City program works. Call us when it’s still in the basement, needs to go today, or is renovation debris the City refuses.
Can your crew handle a narrow rowhouse staircase?
Yes. Fan and Church Hill basements with low ceilings and tight turns are routine; big pieces come apart where they need to, and walls and banisters get padded on the way up.
Which parts of the region do you cover?
Everything within 30 miles of City Hall: Richmond itself, Henrico, Chesterfield and Hanover, Petersburg, Colonial Heights, Hopewell and Fort Lee, and the rural counties around them. The farthest rural addresses depend on routing.
Do you help with Fort Lee PCS moves?
Yes, off post. Families renting in Prince George, Chester, Colonial Heights, Petersburg and Hopewell book us to clear what isn’t making the move before the rental inspection.
