Whole property
A whole house, emptied and swept.
Estates, rental turnovers, foreclosures, downsizing. We work room by room, set aside anything you tell us to keep, and hand the place back broom-clean.

Roughly how much of it?
Ballpark it — we'll sort out the exact price on site.
Property & Estate Cleanouts
The job nobody in the family wants to start.
Clearing out a parent's house isn't really a hauling job, it's a sorting job. So we take it at your pace — slow at the start, walking the rooms with you while you flag what stays, then quick once the decisions are made.
Photos, paperwork, anything that looks personal — that goes on a table, not in the truck. Furniture that's still good goes to a donation center and we'll get you the receipt. Everything else stops being your problem.

How this goes
Three steps, and only the first one is yours.
- 01
Tell us what's going
Call or fill in the form. A photo of the pile helps, but honestly a rough description gets us close enough.
- 02
We come look and give you a number
Flat price, based on how much room it takes up in the trailer. Don't like the number? We drive off. Costs you nothing.
- 03
It's gone before we leave
Say the word and we start loading. We sweep up after, then sort out what can be donated or recycled back at the yard.
Where we go
Dubuque, and pretty much an hour in any direction.
We're over the river into Illinois and Wisconsin all the time, so those are no trouble. Town not on the list? Call anyway — odds are we'll still come out.

Stuff people ask
The questions we get on every call.
So what does this actually cost?
It comes down to how much room your stuff takes up in the truck — not weight, not hours. You get the number on site before anything is loaded, and it doesn't move once we start. Want a ballpark before we drive out? Send us a photo and we'll get you close over the phone.
Do I have to be there?
Nope. A good chunk of our work is rental turnovers and estates where nobody's around. As long as we can get to the stuff and you've okayed the price, we'll handle it and send you photos when it's done.
Do I need to drag it all outside first?
Please don't — that's the part you're paying us for. Basement, stairs, back bedroom, doesn't matter. You point, we lift.
Can you come out today?
A lot of the time, yes — depends how the day is already stacked up. Give us a call and we'll tell you straight away instead of stringing you along.
Where does my stuff end up?
Anything still usable goes to a local donation center. Metal, cardboard and old electronics get recycled. Only the genuinely finished stuff ends up at the transfer station. Need a donation receipt for taxes? Ask and we'll sort it.
Is there anything you won't take?
Hazardous stuff is the one no — wet paint, solvents, asbestos, chemicals, medical waste. Just about everything else is fair game, including fridges and AC units with refrigerant, which we dispose of properly. Not sure about something? Call and describe it.
Want a number for this job?
