It Happens to the Best of Us

You know how it goes: the years slip by, and before you know it, your home has quietly filled up with things you no longer need. Maybe it’s that stack of old magazines in the corner, the dusty furniture in the guest room that no one uses anymore, or the closet crammed full of forgotten toys, clothes, and boxes; all just accumulating and occupying space that you could be using for something new. Or, maybe the space is no longer yours and you’re ready to move to bigger and better things, but the extra junk is weighing your sails down. Now, overwhelmed and most definitely over it, you find yourself Googling “how much to clean out a house”. Don’t worry—we’ve all been there.

So, how much does it cost to clean out a house? In this blog, we will break down the costs, step-by-step, and show you why JM Junk Removers will help you regain the wind in your sails and make your space more breathable.

What is a House Cleanout?

First things first—what exactly is a house cleanout? It’s more than just tossing out a few bags of trash. A house cleanout is a full-service junk removal process where professionals come in to clear out unwanted or unused items from your home.

At JM Junk Removers, we specialize in removing:

• Old furniture (like couches, dressers, and beds)
• Appliances that don’t work anymore
• Boxes of clothes, toys, and household junk
• Bulky items like exercise equipment or old TVs
• General clutter that’s taking up valuable space

Whether it’s the result of moving, clearing out an estate, or simply decluttering an aged home, house cleanouts help you reclaim your space without lifting a finger.

Why It Matters

Maintaining a clutter-free home isn’t just about appearances. Staying organized and getting rid of unused items can improve the overall health and comfort of your space. Less clutter equals less stress. Plus, it frees up room for the things that truly matter—like new furniture, fresh opportunities, or just more space to breathe.

How Much Does a House Cleanout Cost?

When it comes to pricing, we know the first question on your mind is, “How much will this cost me?” The truth is, house cleanout costs can vary based on a few key factors:

1. The Amount of Junk You Have
   • Most junk removal companies (including JM Junk Removers) price by trailer load.
   • A small job may only take up a quarter of a trailer, while a full house cleanout might fill multiple loads.
2. Types of Items Being Removed
   • Some items require special handling and disposal, which can add a small surcharge. These include:
     • Refrigerators and freezers
     • Console TVs
     • Exercise equipment
     • Tires and paint cans
3. Accessibility
   • Homes with easy access to items (like single-story homes or clear driveways) are quicker to clean out. Tight spaces, stairs, or awkward layouts can take a little more time and effort.

Industry Average Pricing

As stated before, most house cleanout and junk removal companies base price off trailer load, each one having different prices and pricing points. At JM Junk, we have up to 7 different price points for our trailer load pricing, however, for the sake of simplicity, let’s use 3 pricing points as an idea. On average, here’s what you can expect:

• 1/4 Load: For smaller cleanouts (think 1-2 rooms or a handful of bulky items), costs typically range from $200 to $400.
• 1/2 Trailer: For medium cleanouts, costs average between $300 and $600.
• Full Load: For full house cleanouts, prices generally range from $600 to $1,000+, depending on the size of the home and the amount of junk.

At JM Junk Removers, we provide no-obligation quotes on-site or over the phone so you’ll always know what to expect. No surprises, no stress.
