Junk Removal in Mount Prospect, IL
Mount Prospect is a 10-minute drive from our shop. We work the older downtown homes near the Metra station and the larger lots north toward Randhurst. Plenty of long-time residents means a lot of estate and downsize cleanouts.

We come with the truck, the gloves, and a crew. You point at what needs to go. We load it, you walk us through the rest, and we leave the space swept. Pricing is by truck space — what we quote at the door is what you pay.

Junk removal in Mount Prospect: what we haul most
Mount Prospect is a mix of long-time owners and renters: 69% of homes are owner-occupied and 31% are rented. So the jobs come in two kinds: basement and attic cleanouts in the brick ranches and split-levels near downtown and the Metra station, and apartment and condo move-outs on lease-end dates.
Loose junk is a big part of it: boxes, broken furniture and bags that have piled up in a basement or garage. We load all of it, not just the big pieces, and charge by the space it takes in the truck.
- Basement cleanouts with loose boxes and broken furniture
- Apartment and condo move-outs on a lease-end date
- Old appliances taken with the rest of a job, disconnected ahead of time
- Garage cleanouts before a sale
- Attic cleanouts in family homes off Elmhurst Road after the kids move out

Homes in Mount Prospect and the cleanouts we do
Mount Prospect is a village in Cook County. Mount Prospect has about 55,400 residents and roughly 5,300 people per square mile. 69% of homes are owner-occupied, the median home value is about $397,000, and 19% of residents are 65 or older.
Almost a third of homes are rented, which means a steady run of move-outs: apartments and condos that have to be emptied by a set date, often with an elevator window or a shared stair. We work to the date and carry everything out ourselves.
The owner-occupied houses are the other half of the work. Brick ranches, split-levels and bigger family homes collect decades of storage in the basement and the attic, and the cleanout usually happens when the kids have moved out or the house is about to be sold.
