Bay Area Apartment Cleanouts. Moving Out or Moving In.

Moving day is hard enough without the couch that won’t fit the new place, the mattress nobody wants and three flights of stairs between them and the street. Our apartment cleanout crew carries it all down and hauls it away, so you don’t have to rent a truck, round up friends or spend your last day lifting. Moving in to leftovers from the last tenant? We clear those too, anywhere in the East Bay, Tri-Valley, Peninsula and South Bay, and beyond.

How it works

Apartment junk removal in 3 steps, from first photo to empty rooms.

  1. Send a few photos

    Call us or send photos of what's going through the form. Mention the floor, whether there's an elevator and where the truck can park, and that's plenty.

    Done in a minute

  2. Get a free quote

    We price by the space your things take in the truck, never by the hour, so a top-floor unit doesn't cost you extra. The crew confirms the exact price on site before loading.

    Free, no obligation

  3. We carry it down

    Our crew carries everything out of the apartment and onto the truck. You don't lift a thing, start to finish.

Why renters call us

Skip the rental truck. Save your back for the boxes.

We’re a family owned and operated crew, and a move is exactly the kind of day we make easier. Doing it yourself means renting a truck, hoping your friends show up, carrying a sleeper sofa down a narrow stairwell and then finding the dump. Apartment junk removal, move out junk removal and full apartment cleanouts are everyday work for us, and our crew can take furniture apart when that’s what it takes to get it out the door. Because we price by space in the truck, the walk-up and the long hallway never add to your bill.

  • Licensed and insured, every move
  • No rental truck, no dump runs
  • Big pieces taken apart if needed
  • Usable items go to a reuse partner first
  • Priced by space, never by the clock

Apartment pricing

Priced by what goes, not by the floor you’re on.

Apartment cleanouts are priced by how much room everything takes in our truck, not by the hours it takes. A fourth-floor walk-up costs nothing extra for the stairs, and that keeps the number easy to plan around on an already busy move.

Single items have their own rates, so one couch is never priced like a whole apartment. Quotes are free online or by phone, and the crew confirms the exact price on site before anything is loaded. Give us your move-out date, and Junk Magik will do its best to fit it.

  • A single piece

    The couch that won't fit the new place, a mattress or an old desk. Single items have their own rate, and we're happy to come out for just one.

  • A room

    A bedroom set, a home office corner or a closet packed full. Our crew carries all of it out to the elevator or the street, so you don't have to.

  • The whole apartment

    Everything that isn't coming with you, from the living room to the balcony, cleared so you can hand the keys back and go.

  • Move-in leftovers

    Whatever the last tenant left behind, cleared out before your boxes come through the door.

Before moving day

Apartments make it harder. Here’s how we make it easy.

Stairs, elevators, parking and a deadline all land on the same day. These are the three questions renters ask us most, and how Junk Magik answers each one.

  1. Why not just rent a truck?

    You can, but the rental is only the start: the mileage, the gas, finding friends for the day, and trip after trip to the street with a couch that won't turn the corner. Then comes the dump run and the fee at the gate. With Junk Magik there's no truck to rent and nothing for you to carry.

  2. Moving in to someone else's stuff?

    Sometimes the keys come with a broken dresser, a mattress in the closet or a balcony full of boxes. Check with your landlord or manager about what's yours to toss, then give us a call. Junk Magik clears it out before your own furniture arrives.

  3. What about the building's rules?

    Plenty of buildings want the elevator reserved, the loading zone booked or moves kept to certain hours. Tell us what yours asks for when you book, and Junk Magik plans the pickup around it.

A few things stay off the truck

A few household products count as hazardous and need a drop-off site instead of a hauler. Not sure about something? Give us a call and we’ll tell you straight away.

Everything else that isn’t coming with you, from the couch to the last box, Junk Magik is glad to take.

Where it all goes

What happens to your old stuff after moving day?

Most of what’s left after a move is furniture, a mattress or two, kitchen things and boxes, and plenty of it still has use. Here’s the order a Junk Magik load moves through after it leaves your building.

  1. Usable things reused first

    Furniture, kitchenware and household goods in good shape go to a reuse partner before anything else, so they can furnish somebody else's place.

  2. Mattresses recycled

    Mattresses and box springs go into California's statewide mattress recycling program, where most of them come apart for materials instead of being buried.

  3. TVs and electronics recycled

    Old TVs, monitors and gaming gear count as e-waste in California, so they go to an e-waste recycler instead of riding in the mixed load.

  4. Landfill as a last resort

    Broken particleboard and worn-out pieces with nowhere better to go. It's the last stop, and we work to keep it small.

Apartment cleanout FAQ

Moving soon? Here’s what renters ask.

Cost, stairs, building rules and what happens to your things. These are the questions renters ask Junk Magik before moving day.

  • It's priced by how much space your things take up in our truck, not by how long the job takes. Single items have their own rate, and a full apartment is quoted by volume. Quotes are free online or by phone, and the crew confirms the exact price on site before anything is loaded.

  • No. We price by the space your things take in the truck, not by the floor you're on or how long the carry takes. The walk-up is our problem, not your bill.

  • Tell us the date as soon as you know it and we'll do our best to book it. Same-day and next-day slots do open up, but the earlier you call, the easier it is to land the exact day you need.

  • Someone should let us in and show us what's going. If you've already moved out, tell us when you book and we'll work out access with you.

  • Yes. Check with your landlord or property manager about what's yours to get rid of, then give us a call and we'll clear it before your own furniture arrives.

  • If your building requires it, yes, and it's worth booking early. Tell us the time you've reserved, and we'll plan the pickup around it.

  • Yes. When a resident moves out and leaves furniture behind, or move-out leftovers pile up by the dumpsters, we carry it out and haul it away. One unit or several at once, and regular pickups are available for busy communities.

  • Absolutely. One couch, one mattress or one old desk is a real job for us, with its own rate. You don't need a full apartment to give Junk Magik a call.
