Junk Removal in Charlottesville, VA
From a single couch to a whole garage cleanout — tell us what you've got and we'll haul it away, often within a day or two.
Whether you're clearing out a basement on Rugby Road, downsizing before a move, or finally dealing with the pile behind the shed, getting rid of junk in Charlottesville usually means one of two things: renting a truck and making runs to the Ivy Material Utilization Center yourself, or having a local crew come do the heavy lifting for you.
We connect you with vetted local junk removal pros who do it all — the lifting, the loading, the hauling, and the responsible disposal. Items in good condition are donated to local organizations whenever possible, recyclables go to recycling, and only what's left goes to the landfill.

Junk Removal FAQs
How much does junk removal cost in Charlottesville?
Most junk removal in the Charlottesville area is priced by volume — how much of the truck your items fill. Single-item pickups often run $75–$150, a quarter truckload around $150–$250, and a full truckload $450–$600. You'll get an exact price before any work starts.
Do I need to be home for the pickup?
Not necessarily. If your items are accessible — on a porch, in a driveway, or in a garage with a code — most crews can do a no-contact pickup and send you a photo when it's done.
What happens to my junk?
Usable furniture and household goods are typically donated to local organizations like Habitat for Humanity ReStore or Goodwill. Metal, electronics, and cardboard are recycled. Only what can't be donated or recycled goes to the transfer station.
Is there anything you won't take?
Hazardous materials — paint, chemicals, asbestos, fuel — can't go on the truck. Albemarle County residents can take household hazardous waste to the Ivy MUC during designated collection events.
