First item from $79 · Additional items from $19 each

Your old couch

Sofas, sectionals, recliners — the big stuff that's been in the way since the new one arrived. Wheel it to the curb. A hauler picks it up, same day.

Your old mattress

Mattress, box spring, or both — we take them all. No awkward hallway maneuvering required. Just curb it and it's gone.

Your old appliances

Fridge, washer, dryer, stove — too heavy to move, too big to trash. Curb it and a hauler makes it disappear.

Your old furniture

Desks, dressers, bookshelves, nightstands. Clearing a whole room or just swapping one piece — curb it and it's handled.

Your junk pile

Boxes, bags, the random stuff you've been meaning to deal with. If you can drag it to the curb, we'll make it disappear.

Portland's bulk pickup has limits — we don't

Portland BPS offers bulky waste curbside pickup through franchise haulers at city-set rates — total cost includes a pickup fee plus a per-item charge based on item size. July 2025 rate increases added $1.55-$2.05/month to most residential bills. Contact your hauler at least a week in advance; items should not be set out until the scheduled day. Renters must request through their landlord since they are the garbage service account holder.
