Commercial

Built for businesses, not just households

Commercial work runs on different constraints: operating hours you cannot interrupt, buildings with vendor rules, and a quote that has to survive an approval process. All of that is scoped in from the start.
  • Offices and professional suites
  • Retail stores and restaurants
  • Property managers and HOAs
  • Apartment communities
  • Real estate agents and investors
  • Warehouses and distribution
  • Storage facilities
  • Construction and renovation sites

What We Take

If two people can carry it, it can probably go

Furniture, appliances, electronics, yard waste, renovation debris and general clutter. The short list of what cannot go on a truck is set by law, not preference.

Some things cannot go on the truck

Paint, fuel, propane, chemicals, asbestos and medical waste are regulated materials that need a household hazardous waste program or a licensed specialist.

What we don’t take

Why Junk Koala

A national company that shows up like a local one

One brand, one booking system and one support team behind crews who actually work in your market.

  • Booking that takes minutes

    Describe the job, add photos if it helps, and pick a time. No phone tag, no waiting for someone to call back before you know what happens next.

  • Fair pricing, upfront

    The crew confirms what is being removed and what it costs before anything goes on the truck. If the job turns out to be different from what you described, you find out then — not on the invoice.

  • Local crews, national standards

    The people who show up are a local crew who know the market, the facilities and the routes. The booking, scheduling and support behind them run on one national system.

  • Residential and commercial, equally

    The same operation handles a single mattress and a multi-floor office cleanout. Commercial work gets scheduling around business hours, quotes that survive an approval process, and invoicing that fits accounts payable.

  • Same-day and next-day service

    Most jobs do not need to wait. Same-day and next-day slots are available, the crew arrives inside the window you picked, and if anything moves you hear it from us before it happens rather than after.

  • Eco-friendly disposal

    Loads are sorted so donatable goods, metal, electronics and green waste go where they should. Refrigerant appliances go to certified recovery. Hazardous materials get flagged and left, not quietly loaded.

Pricing

Priced by the space it takes, not by the hour

Most jobs are priced by how much room the load fills in the truck. These are starting prices — you get the real number before anything is loaded.
How pricing works

  • Single Item

    One item, curbside or inside

    One piece that needs two people and a truck. Priced as a single item rather than as a share of a full load.

    from $99

  • Minimum Load

    Roughly an eighth of the truck

    The smallest multi-item job. A handful of pieces from one room, or a small pile from a garage.

    from $149

  • Most common

    Half Truck

    Half the truck

    The most common cleanout size. Multiple rooms, or one thoroughly full garage or basement.

    from $379

  • Full Truck

    The full truck

    A whole property's worth of material, or a large commercial clear-out in one visit.

    from $549

  • Fair pricing, confirmed upfront
  • Labor and disposal included
  • No charge to request a quote

Responsible Disposal

Sorted, not just hauled

A junk load is rarely one material. Separating it is what decides whether most of it gets recovered or all of it goes to a landfill.
How disposal works

  • Donation

    Furniture, household goods, clothing, books and usable office furniture are offered to local donation partners. Receiving standards are genuinely strict — particularly for upholstery — so this is assessed item by item rather than assumed.

  • Metal recycling

    Appliances, shelving, racking, bed frames, scrap and fencing are predominantly steel. Metal recyclers take these readily, which is why appliances rarely need to reach a landfill at all.

  • Electronics recycling

    Televisions, computers, monitors and networking equipment are routed to e-waste processors. Many states prohibit these from landfill outright, and the recoverable materials inside them are worth the separate handling.

  • Green waste and composting

    Clean brush, branches, leaves, grass and sod go to composting and mulching facilities where the local market has one. A load has to stay clean to qualify — a few plastic pots can disqualify the whole thing.

FAQ

Questions people actually ask

Straight answers on how the service works, what it costs and where everything ends up.
Read all FAQs
What actually happens on the day?

The crew arrives in the appointment window, walks the job with you, and confirms exactly which items are going and what it costs. Once you approve that, they do the removal — carrying items out from wherever they are, loading the truck, and sweeping the space. Then the load goes to donation, recycling or disposal depending on what is in it.

Do I need to move anything to the curb first?

No. The crew removes items from wherever they sit — upstairs bedrooms, basements, attics, back yards, storage units. Moving things outside yourself is optional and does not change the price.

How is the price calculated?

Most jobs are priced by volume — how much space the load takes up in the truck. Heavy materials such as concrete, tile, soil and roofing debris are priced by weight instead, because they reach a truck's legal weight limit long before they fill it. Access and labor affect the number too: a fourth-floor walk-up is more work than a garage.

What can you not take?

Household hazardous waste and regulated materials: paint, solvents, chemicals, fuel, oil, propane and compressed gas cylinders, asbestos and lead materials, biological and medical waste, ammunition, fireworks and radioactive material. These are legal restrictions on transport and disposal rather than company preferences.

Can I get same-day or next-day service?

Yes — same-day and next-day service is available, and it is one of the most common ways people book. Whether a same-day slot is open on any given day comes down to how much capacity your local crew has left, so booking earlier in the day gives you the best chance of one.

Where does everything go?

Loads are sorted where local facilities allow it. Usable furniture and household goods go to donation partners, metal to scrap processors, electronics to e-waste recycling, clean green waste to composting, and refrigerant appliances to certified recovery. What remains goes to a transfer station or landfill.
