Frequently Asked Questions
HOW DOES OTTAWA JUNK REMOVAL WORK?
We remove almost anything from anywhere and we take care of every step of the junk removal process — the hauling, loading and proper disposal. We even recycle and donate whatever possible! When our friendly, uniformed professionals arrive on-site for your appointment, they take a good look at everything you need removed as you walk us through what you need done. Before we start loading up, we provide you with an up-front, all-inclusive price for the removal based on how much space your stuff will take up in our truck. It’s that simple!
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
The cost is based on volume – the amount of space your materials take up in our 8 x 12 x 6 bin. You only pay for what we take away and the job is quoted up-front upon arrival, before the work begins, with no obligation. We have the best pricing in town and will be very clear about pricing once we’ve seen everything that needs to be removed. Minimum charge starts at $85 and our full bin is $498.
HOW SOON CAN I BOOK?
