Prices and Quotes
How is my price calculated?
Your photo is matched against the Jacksonville catalog, item by item. For larger jobs the quote also works out a truck-fill price and uses the lower of the two. You see the total before booking.
Is there a minimum charge?
Yes, $75. One sofa ($126) or one twin mattress ($82) covers it on its own.
Do second floors or long walks cost more?
No. A dresser from an upstairs bedroom costs the same as one sitting in the carport.
Is same-day service priced higher?
No. When a crew can come today, you pay the same flat price you’d pay next week.
How does truck-fill pricing work?
The truck holds 16 cubic yards. A quarter of it is $241, half $431, the whole truck $732. It’s usually the better deal for garages, estates and whole-house move-outs.
Scheduling and the Day Itself
How quickly can a crew get here?
Often the same day or the next, depending on your part of the footprint. Open windows show up on the quote page when you book.
Does someone need to be home?
No. Leave items in an open garage or share a lockbox or door code, and you’ll get photos once the job is done.
Who are the crews?
Local, insured haulers vetted by JunkRabbit. Booking and payment go through us, and the crew handles the truck and the heavy lifting.
Can you plan around a PCS move?
Yes. Tell us your pack-out and final-inspection dates, and the pickup is scheduled between them. If you’ve already reported elsewhere, someone local can let the crew in. See PCS move-outs.
What Goes on the Truck
Can you take paint cans and propane tanks?
Yes, at their own prices because of the special handling: a gallon of paint is $30, a five-gallon bucket $52, and a 20-pound propane tank $33.
Do you haul yard waste after a storm?
Yes, priced by the cubic yard at $88. The storm debris section covers soaked carpet and furniture.
Where does everything end up?
Furniture in good shape goes to local charities, appliances to refrigerant recovery and metal recycling, electronics to recyclers, and the remainder to licensed disposal.
Do you remove hot tubs and pianos?
Yes. A hot tub is $322, an upright piano $290, a pool table $603, each with the crew size it needs.
Duval, the Beaches and Nearby Counties
What are the City of Jacksonville’s bulk rules?
Household bulk goes out by 6 a.m. on collection day within five feet of the curb, no piece longer than five feet. Appliances and tires need a separate request through MyJax or 630-CITY.
Do the Beaches follow the same rules?
No. Atlantic, Neptune and Jacksonville Beach kept their own governments in 1968 and run their own sanitation, so check with your beach city.
What about Clay, St. Johns and Nassau counties?
Each runs its own program. St. Johns arranges appliance pickups through county Solid Waste and has resident drop-off at its transfer stations; check your county’s website for details.
Which areas are covered?
All of Duval plus towns within about 30 miles of City Hall — Orange Park, Fleming Island, Nocatee, Ponte Vedra Beach, Fernandina Beach, Yulee, Callahan and Macclenny among them. St. Augustine city and Georgia are outside the area. See the full list.
