Junk Valet is unable to quote a firm price until we are able to see exactly what you want removed and determine how much space the items take in our truck.

Pricing is based on the volume and nature of the material to be loaded. We will book an appointment with you, and review our pricing structure over the phone based on the amount of junk you tell us you have. Then the truck team will verify the final, no-obligation pricing upon arrival.

Customers should be on site when the Junk Valet truck arrives. We call within an hour before your appointment time to confirm arrival time. If you are not on site when we arrive, the truck team will assess your load (if it is accessible), determine pricing, and call you for removal confirmation. We will accept a credit card payment over the phone.

It depends on what it is. We recycle over 95% of the items we remove (metals, wood, plastic, tires, cardboard, etc.). If items are considered salvageable, we take them to an appropriate charity drop-off location for donation. We do our best to recycle as much as we can. We then go to the transfer station or to the dump.

Yes. We are licensed and bonded with over $1M in coverage and have established excellent relationships with self-storage facilities. When you need your items moved or stored we use our self-contained storage trucks.

Junk Valet is considerably more economical and efficient than using a dumpster. Our trained professionals do the labor and clean up for you. The fee is based on volume – saving you the cost of paying for an entire dumpster (regardless of whether it’s full or not). Dumpsters sit on your property and you have to do all the loading and clean up yourself.

Our prices are based on the space occupied in our 23 Cubic Yard open top dump trucks (dump bed dimensions of 20′ X 8′ X 4 = 640 Cubic Feet).

If shopping around for the best junk removal & recycling rates in Southern California, please keep this in mind since most of our competitors use 16 or 17 Cubic Yard trucks. You will get much more value for your money with our larger trucks! By cubit yard our prices are up to 15% less than competitors.

Junk Valet owners, trucks, and employees are fully licensed and insured.
