Junk Removal Vs Dumpster Rental
Got a renovation project or getting ready to move out?
If you lack the proper equipment to haul off waste and debris on your own, don’t worry, Arizona Junk has a solution for you.
When removing junk from your property, you have two choices, you can rent a dumpster or hire a junk removal service. There are several factors you should consider before decided which solution is best for you.
Let’s take a look at a rundown of your options.
Dumpster Rentals
Dumpster rentals vary drastically in pricing, depending on the size of the dumpster, the length of the project and the location of the property. Prices can range anywhere between $50-$900. In addition, other fees may apply such as weight limit fees and parking permits.
Another thing to be aware of is the weight of the dumpster. When filled with debris dumpsters can easily weigh 2 tons. These heavy containers can cause damage to driveways and property
When a dumpster makes sence
- If you want to load the container yourself over the course of several days.
- If you have at least 7 cubic yards of debris (otherwise you are paying for more space than you need).
Junk Removal Services
We are faster at removing debris than dumpster rentals, in addition, we will do the heavy lifting for you. We will clear out that old furniture in the basement, the broken freezer in the garage or we will clean up the unwanted junk left on your property after a move-out.
Depending the job, prices for waste removal are typically less than dumpster rentals. See our pricing calculator for a quick look at junk removal costs.
When to call AZ Junk Remvoal
- If you want some else to load your debris and haul it off quickly.
- If you have only a few large items or you have a lot of debris in a central location.

Realtors and property management companies can profit from hiring a junk removal company.
Selling a home quickly is the goal of any real estate agent. When obtaining a new listing, sometimes, the property is far from ready to show to prospective buyers. Clutter, such as, furniture, trash and a backyard full of junk can quickly become overwhelming. A junk removal company can take a large load off your shoulders by restoring the property to its glory.
Shy of cleaning the floors and walls, a good junk removal company can turn a complete disaster into a success; in less than 24 hours. We offer an REO trash-out service that is designed for real estate agents and property managers.
Most realtors who have worked with junk removal companies know the value of having a trusted removal company in their pocket like an ace-in-the-hole. On average in the U.S., a homeowner will sell their home after six years; during this time it’s easy to end up with a garage or backyard full of clutter. I know. I have experienced this first hand, when I had to move recently after only two years; I had an entire garage full of unpacked boxes and other random clutter, most of which I really didn’t need.
It’s no mystery, when selling a home the condition of the property is a factor in maximizing profits. Even a garage containing boxes or trash can negatively affect the final closing price by thousands of dollars.
I’m a Real Estate Professional, I Can Remove the Junk Myself
A LIL’ CASE STUDY
I provide cleanup services for a realtor professional who works for Century 21 here in Phoenix. He calls me from time to time to handle his real estate property cleanups. Before he began contracting my company he would clean out the properties himself. I asked him, “What would you do when you obtained a listing that required more than just the removal of a few items?”. He said, he would contact friends or get family to help. Well, that was until this cleanup came knocking at his door:
A Century 21 Realtor’s property in Phoenix who we provide hauling services for. He knew he was in over his head on this one.
From then on, he uses our REO trash-out services for all his cleanup needs. The thing he likes most about hiring us is that we can clean up the property without needing him to show up to the property. Additionally, we are able to recycle or donate most of the junk left behind.
Property Management Companies Need Junk Removal Companies Too
Just like realtors, property managers and management companies see their share of trash filled homes. Instead of hiring someone off craigslist, or someone how comes “highly-recommended”, a professional hauling and trash removal company can save you a world of heartache. When we provide our services for a property management company or realtor we will complete the removal of all trash, junk, furniture and appliances then send photos of the cleaned property via text message. This is what many property managers like about using us for all their property trash-outs.
We look forward to becoming your personal contact for all your Arizona properties’ REO junk removal needs.

We’ve all been there: you’ve moved everything to your new place…but the old place is still overwhelmingly chaotic with random junk.
Here, in the good ole U.S. of A., the motto is “he who dies with the most toys wins”.
It’s our obsession with “stuff” that makes us stand out from other countries. We have surplus of space, and we fill it quickly – most of the time with junk. Stuff collects and you don’t realize it until the time comes to move.
Take it from me: if I had a dollar for every time I’ve shown up to a job with a garage full of unwanted items, I wouldn’t be writing this blog post.
Hiring a professional clean-out company is an easy way to rid yourself of that final phase of a never-ending move.
Since many moving companies in Phoenix don’t offer move-out cleaning services, you’re left with the task of disposing of all the junk or trash you didn’t want carry over to your new home. Don’t worry, you’re not alone. This is a common part of the moving process – so much so that we provide a service dedicated to moving clean outs.
