What are the typical costs for removing furniture and appliances?

Quote from Rosa Ctoun on May 3, 2026, 7:40 pmI'm in the process of renovating my home, and that means I've got a bunch of old furniture and appliances that need to go. I'm talking about an ancient refrigerator, a worn-out sofa, and a few other bulky items that are too big for regular trash collection. I'm looking into hiring a service to take them away, but I'm unsure about the typical costs involved. What kind of pricing should I expect for this type of removal, and how do they usually calculate the charges for larger items like these?

Quote from Lucia Lucia Serrano on May 3, 2026, 8:04 pmDisposing of large items like old fridges and sofas can definitely be a hassle! I've used junk removal services a couple of times for remodels, and they generally charge based on the volume your items take up in their truck, not usually by weight (unless it's an exceptionally heavy item like a piano or hot tub). The cost for 1 800 got junk, for example, typically starts with a minimum fee, and then increases based on how much of the truck they fill. For just a few large items, you might fall into their minimum or a quarter-truck tier. They often provide an upfront quote after seeing the items. You can read more about their pricing structure to get a clearer picture of what you might pay for your specific items.
