Junk removal vs. Seattle’s bulk trash pickup

Seattle Public Utilities offers special item collections for large furniture, appliances, TVs and other hard-to-dispose-of items. The utility account holder books online or by phone, and each item carries a fee on the utility bill, with higher charges for appliances containing refrigerant.

How bulk pickup works in Seattle

  • Only the utility account holder can book a special item collection.
  • Fees are charged per item and appear on the combined utility bill.
  • Leaving furniture in planting strips or the right-of-way is illegal dumping, not a free pile.
  • Utility Discount Program customers in single-family homes can get two free special item pickups a year.

City collection is a good free option when your items fit the rules and you can wait for a scheduled special item collection. A junk removal crew makes more sense when you need things gone sooner, when they’re still inside the house, or when the pile is bigger than paid, per-item special collections.

Recycling, donation and local tips in Seattle

Self-haulers can use the city’s North Transfer Station (1350 N 34th St) or South Transfer Station (130 S Kenyon St), where fees apply, and building-material reuse stores accept salvageable materials.

E-Cycle Washington offers free recycling for TVs, computers, monitors, tablets and e-readers at collection sites around the state.

Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners contain refrigerant that federal EPA rules require to be recovered before the appliance is scrapped, which is why appliances are quoted separately from general junk.

How junk removal pricing works in Seattle

Every junk removal job in Seattle is quoted individually, and the price is agreed before anything is loaded. It depends on:

  • Truck space used
  • Weight of the materials
  • Stairs, elevators and carrying distance
  • Mattresses, appliances and electronics
  • Disposal and recycling fees

Compared with paid, per-item special collections through Seattle Public Utilities (SPU), a quote from us covers whatever amount you have, with the labor, the driving and the disposal in one figure.

How it works

  1. Tell us what needs to go

    Fill in the quote form with your name, phone number, job type and preferred date. A short description of your junk removal job in Seattle is enough to start; photos help.

  2. Get a price

    We call you back with a price based on what you have. The price is agreed before anything is loaded.

  3. We do the lifting

    A crew arrives in your chosen window and carries everything out from wherever it is: rooms, stairs, garages and yards.

  4. Donate, recycle, dispose

    Usable items go to donation, recyclables are separated, and the rest goes to permitted facilities.

Junk Removal across Seattle

Junk Removal in Seattle: frequently asked questions

What junk won’t you take?

Crews can’t take hazardous materials such as liquid paint, solvents, fuel, asbestos or medical waste. Almost everything else from a home or garage is fine. If you’re not sure, mention it on the quote form.

Do I need to move items outside?

No. The crew carries items out from any room, attic, basement or backyard. Just make sure there’s a clear path and tell us about stairs or long carries.

Where can I recycle electronics in Seattle?

E-Cycle Washington offers free recycling for TVs, computers, monitors, tablets and e-readers at collection sites around the state.

Why hire junk removal in Seattle instead of waiting for the city?

City collection is a good free option when your items fit the rules and you can wait for a scheduled special item collection. A junk removal crew makes more sense when you need things gone sooner, when they’re still inside the house, or when the pile is bigger than paid, per-item special collections.

Which Seattle neighborhoods do you serve?

We work across Seattle, including Capitol Hill, Ballard, Fremont, Queen Anne, Wallingford, Beacon Hill, West Seattle, University District and nearby areas. Enter your details on the quote form and we’ll confirm availability.
