Step-by-step

A practical plan for the job.

1
Handle authorization first
The property representative—not the junk crew—must determine when belongings may legally be removed.
2
Document the starting condition
Photograph each room and list any items that must remain with the property.
3
Include every area
Check the garage, patio, balcony, storage cage, yard and common areas tied to the unit.
4
Coordinate the turnover
Provide access, parking, keys, building rules and the deadline for cleaners or maintenance.

What affects cost

Volume first. Conditions matter.

JunkPDX pricing is based primarily on the space used in our 14-foot box truck. Weight, stairs, carry distance, dismantling, special handling and disposal requirements can affect the final total. Photos can help us give a preliminary range; the exact price is confirmed onsite before anything is loaded.
