Most McHenry homes are owner-occupied houses, 40.3% of all homes were built between 1990 and 2009, and 19.2% of residents are 65 or older. That mix tends to mean two kinds of jobs: garage and basement cleanouts before a sale, and downsizing or estate cleanouts where keepsakes and documents are set aside first. For family who live out of state, we can work with lockbox access, before/after photos and remote payment. A house cleaning can follow the haul so the home is ready to list.

Getting a truck in and out of McHenry
- McHenry bans parking on every City street from 2 to 6 a.m. Our crew works during the day and parks only while loading, so the overnight ban never touches your job.
- In snow, McHenry plows emergency routes first and cul-de-sacs last, and on-street parking bans apply. After a heavy snowfall we load from your driveway, or we reschedule with you.
- Townhomes make up 11.7% of McHenry homes. If your association limits where a truck can stand, tell us when you book and we follow it.

Questions McHenry residents ask
Can you clear a McHenry house for family who live out of state?
Yes. We set keepsakes and documents aside first and clear the rest to a broom-clean finish. Family out of state can arrange lockbox access, get before/after photos and pay remotely, and we work with executors, attorneys and realtors, which matters in a city where 19.2% of residents are 65 or older.
Do you still come to McHenry after a snowfall?
Yes, when the streets allow it. McHenry plowing generally starts at 2 inches, with emergency snow routes first, then neighborhood streets, then cul-de-sacs, and on-street parking bans apply while it does. If your street isn't clear, we load from the driveway or pick a new time with you.
Can you empty a McHenry garage before we list the house?
Yes. Many McHenry homes are newer (40.3% were built between 1990 and 2009), and their garages and basements fill up over the years. Text us photos for a quote; we clear everything to a broom-clean floor, and a house cleaning can follow before the listing photos.
