Bay Area Garage Cleanouts. Same-Day Garage Junk Removal.

A garage is where things land when they don’t have a spot yet: boxes from the last move, the bike the kids outgrew, a treadmill wedged behind the lawn mower. Hauling it out yourself means a full weekend of lifting and a few runs to the dump. Our garage cleanout crew carries every piece out and loads the truck, and you don’t sort it first. We work across the East Bay, Tri-Valley, Peninsula and South Bay, and plenty of places past them.

Real loads

Watch a real load go out.Box by box, piece by piece.

Two real garage cleanouts, filmed on ordinary days. Boxes, shelving, bags and old furniture carried out by hand, down the driveway and packed tight on the truck. That’s how every garage goes out when Junk Magik clears it.

How it works

Garage cleanouts in 3 steps, from packed to parked.

  1. Send a snapshot

    Phone us, or send a few photos through the form. Show us the garage and anything up in the rafters or out in the side yard, and that's enough to start.

    Easy from your phone

  2. We quote it for free

    The number comes from how much room the load fills in the truck, not the hours on the clock, so the trip down the driveway is on us. Once the crew sees everything, they confirm the exact price before a single box is lifted.

    No charge to ask

  3. We empty it out

    The crew carries every box, bin and bike out to the truck and drives it all away. Your part is opening the door.

    Room to park again

Junk Magik is family owned and operated, and a packed garage is right in our wheelhouse. Doing a garage clear out yourself usually means a borrowed truck, a couple of dump runs and an aching back by Sunday night. Garage junk removal goes a lot smoother with a crew handling it: we carry, we load, and anything too bulky to move in one piece gets taken apart first. Because we price by truck space, how far the garage sits from the street never changes the bill.

  • Licensed and insured, start to finish
  • No borrowed truck, no dump runs
  • Shelving and bed frames broken down
  • Good, usable things go to reuse first
  • No hourly rate, ever

Garage pricing

Priced by how full the truck gets, never by the clock.

What it costs to clean out a garage comes down to how much of our truck the load fills. The hours don’t count, so a tight side gate or a steep driveway never nudges the number up.

One old grill is priced as a single item, never like a full two-car garage. You can get a quote free online or over the phone, and our crew settles the exact price on site once they’ve seen everything. Then Junk Magik gets to work.

  • A few pieces

    An old exercise bike, a broken dresser or a stack of boxes by the door. Small jobs have their own rate and get the same crew as a full garage.

  • One side of the garage

    The half where the shelves and storage bins took over. It's more trips up and down the driveway than most people expect, and our crew covers all of them.

  • The whole garage

    Floor to rafters, wall to wall: furniture, appliances, tools, holiday boxes and whatever's tucked behind them. One visit when it fits, a second if it needs one, quoted as a single job.

  • Before a move or remodel

    Selling the house, renovating, or turning the garage into a gym or workshop? Tell us the date, and we'll work to have it empty before the next part starts.

Before you start

Garages fill up for good reasons. Here’s what clearing one takes.

Nobody sets out to fill a garage. Moves, hobbies, growing kids and things saved for later all end up there. These are the three things people ask most when they’re ready to declutter the garage, with honest answers and where Junk Magik comes in.

  1. How long does a garage cleanout take?

    It depends on how much is in there and how close the truck can park. A handful of pieces is a short stop, and a garage packed wall to wall takes longer. Ask when you call and we'll give you an honest idea for yours. Either way, the Junk Magik crew does all the carrying, so none of that time is yours.

  2. How do you get rid of garage junk?

    There are a few ways. Many cities offer a bulky-item pickup for a couple of large pieces, donation centers take things in good shape, and the transfer station takes the rest if you have a truck and a free afternoon. A whole garage usually outgrows all three, and that's where one visit from Junk Magik makes sense.

  3. Why is a garage so hard to clear?

    Garages hold the heaviest things in the house: the second fridge, the weight bench, boxes of books and a toolbox that's heavier than it looks. That's dozens of trips back and forth, and a few pieces are a two-person carry. Junk Magik's crew takes every one of them.

What stays in the garage

A few products people keep in garages count as hazardous, and those belong at a household hazardous waste drop-off rather than on a hauler’s truck. Not sure about something on a shelf? Give us a call and we’ll let you know right away.

Everything else, from the first box to the bike hanging from the ceiling, Junk Magik is happy to haul away.

Where it ends up

Where your garage stuff goes after the door comes down.

A garage load is mostly furniture, tools, sports gear, boxes and the odd appliance, and plenty of it still works. This is the route it takes once Junk Magik pulls out of your driveway.

  1. Reuse comes first

    Bikes, tools, furniture and sports gear in good shape go to a reuse partner before anything else, so they get a second life in someone else's garage.

  2. Appliances recycled

    The second fridge, a chest freezer or an old washer goes to appliance recycling, and units with refrigerant are kept apart so it can be recovered first.

  3. Metal and cardboard pulled out

    Bike frames, old tools, metal shelving and stacks of flattened boxes come out of the mixed load and go to recycling.

  4. Landfill gets what's left

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

Garage cleanout FAQ

Thinking about the garage? Start here.

Cost, timing, what we take and where it all goes. These come up on almost every call before a garage cleanout.

  • It's priced by how much room everything takes up in our truck, not by how many hours the job runs. A few items have their own rate, and a full garage is quoted by volume. Quotes are free online or over the phone, and the crew confirms the exact price on site before anything goes on the truck.

  • No, and there's no need to spend a weekend on it. Just let us know what's staying, and the crew takes everything else. Separating donations, recycling and trash happens on our end.

  • Yes, when there's an opening. Same-day and next-day slots do come up, so the earlier in the day you call, the better your chances.

  • Someone should be there at the start to show the crew what goes and what stays. After that, you're free to get on with your day.

  • Yes. Fridges, freezers, washers and dryers come out with everything else, and anything holding refrigerant goes to a recycler that recovers it first.

  • Yes for freestanding shelves, workbenches and furniture. Our crew can break them down to get them out. If something is bolted to the wall or wired in, mention it when you book so we can talk it through.

  • Yes. Storage up in the rafters, the side yard and the carport all count as part of the job. Just show us when we arrive so nothing gets missed.

  • Absolutely. A single shelf unit or a few bins of old toys is a job we're happy to do, with its own rate. You don't need a packed garage to call Junk Magik.
