Junk Removal and Moving Labor in One Plan

Separate what gets hauled away from what goes in your moving vehicle, then plan the crew, access and two service prices.

Before you plan the job

Can I book junk removal and moving help together?

Yes. Choose Junk Removal + Moving Labor to send one request. JunkPDX hauls approved unwanted items and provides labor for belongings you are keeping. The two services are priced separately. You provide and drive the vehicle carrying your household goods; crew timing, access and the complete scope need review.

For your Portland-area project, review moving labor or call the local crew at (971) 325-2491.

Step-by-step

A practical plan for the job.

  1. 1

    Mark what goes and what moves

    Use separate rooms, labels or clearly defined zones for keep, donate, sell and remove items. Protect keys, documents, medications and essentials so they never enter the hauling pile.

  2. 2

    Arrange your moving vehicle

    Provide the rental truck, trailer or portable storage container and tell the crew its size and arrival time. JunkPDX does not provide or drive the vehicle transporting your household goods.

  3. 3

    Show both scopes

    Send photos of unwanted items and describe the belongings needing lifting or loading. Include stairs, elevators, parking, heavy pieces and both locations if unloading is requested.

  4. 4

    Review the order and prices

    Ask whether unwanted items should leave first to clear a loading path. Confirm the junk-removal price and the moving-labor arrangement separately before work. Leave time for loading and the property’s final walkthrough.

What affects cost

No truck-size guess required.

You don’t need to choose a truck size. Show us what goes. We’ll measure the load. Descriptions and photos help us plan, but are not a final quote. Price depends on truck space, weight, access, labor and special disposal. You approve the total before loading.

How Pricing Works

Common questions

Before you schedule.

Can my belongings travel in the JunkPDX junk truck?

This combined service provides junk hauling plus labor-only moving help. You provide and drive the separate vehicle carrying belongings you are keeping. Do not plan household-goods transportation in the junk-removal truck.

How much does the moving labor cost?

JunkPDX lists $55 per hour per mover, with a two-mover and three-hour minimum: $330 minimum total for labor. Junk removal is priced separately. Share access and heavy-item details so the complete arrangement can be reviewed.

Should junk removal happen before loading the moving truck?

It can help to remove approved unwanted furniture first when it blocks the carry path or could be confused with belongings being moved. The best order depends on access, the moving vehicle and the agreed crew schedule.

Can the crew unload at my new address?

Ask when submitting the request. Destination access, travel, timing and the crew route must be reviewed before unloading can be confirmed. Do not assume the first appointment includes a second location.

Can I book only the loading help?

Yes. Use the moving-labor service when there is no junk to haul. Provide the vehicle or container details, the address, access information and the items needing help so the labor request can be planned.
