“Just finished a house and garage clean out with Keith and Travis from Veterans Junk Removal. A+ for every step of the process, from my initial phone call to the loaded truck driving away. Hard working, friendly, polite, the team and company met all promises stated on the website. Highly recommend.”

“This company is top-notch! We hired them to take all the stuff out of my Mother-in-laws house. They emailed a confirmation, they called 30 minutes before arriving and showed up on time. They knew what they were doing. They were personable and professional.”

What this covers

What does a garage cleanout in Metro Detroit involve?

Veteran Junk Removal handles garage cleanouts across Metro Detroit and Ann Arbor, whether it's a two-car garage packed wall to wall or a corner that just needs sorting out. However much of the truck the contents end up taking, that's what sets the price, and the crew names the number before anything comes off the shelves.

More about garage cleanouts

A garage cleanout means clearing out years of overlap: tools that don't work anymore, sports equipment nobody uses, boxes from the last move, and furniture that got pushed aside. The crew clears all of it, working around what's staying, whether the space holds a workbench, a lawn mower, or just floor-to-ceiling boxes.

Paint cans, motor oil, propane tanks, and old batteries stay behind, headed to your county's household hazardous waste drop-off instead of onto this truck. Tools, sporting goods, shelving, bikes, and years of general overflow are all fine to load onto that same truck.

Call in or book online to grab a two-hour arrival slot, from 9 to 11 through 3 to 5, any day of the week. The crew is out from 8am to 8pm daily, and a same-day or next-day appointment is often available when there's space on the route.

What we clear from a garage
  • Tools and tool chests
  • Lawn mowers and yard equipment
  • Bicycles and sports equipment

What it costs

Priced by truck space, not by the hour

The crew looks at the actual load, gives you one firm number, and you approve it before the first item is lifted. Access and any dismantling are already in that number rather than added at the end.

Why Veteran Junk Removal for this job

What you get
on the day

These are the rules the crew follows on every pickup, so you know what to expect before anything is loaded.

01

Truck space sets the price

How much of the truck the garage's contents fill decides the number, from one corner to a fully packed two-car garage.

02

Priced after the walkthrough

The crew names one total after seeing the garage, you approve it before loading, and nothing is added to it afterward.

03

One price covers labor and disposal

Carrying everything out, hauling it away, and disposing of it are all part of that single total.

04

Four windows a day

The day splits into four two-hour windows, the first at 9 and the last at 3 to 5, seven days a week.

How a garage cleanout job runs

Four steps from the first call to a swept-clean space, with the price agreed before anything is lifted.

Step 1

Tell us about the garage

Give the crew a sense of how packed the garage is and what's staying, with a photo if you've got one, for a starting figure ahead of the visit.

Step 2

Book a two-hour slot

A phone call or a quick booking online gets you on the schedule; ask if a same-day or next-day slot happens to be open.

Step 3

Walkthrough and total

The crew looks over the garage and the path out, names one number, and gets to work once you give the go-ahead.

Step 4

Clear it out and sweep up

Everything comes off the shelves and onto the truck, and the floor gets swept clean when they're done. Donation and recycling happen wherever local facilities will take the material.

See all FAQs
How much does a garage cleanout cost in Metro Detroit?
Every garage holds a different amount, so pricing starts with a look at the space. The crew factors in how much of the truck it'll take and how it needs to be reached, then names one number before anything is loaded, covering both the labor and the disposal.
What do you need from me before you arrive?
A sense of how full the garage is and what's staying behind works well as a starting point. Sending a photo ahead of time gives the crew a rough figure, and they'll nail down the exact total once they're standing in the garage with the door open.
What can't you take from a garage?
Paint, motor oil, propane tanks, old batteries, and similar chemicals have no place on this load; they're a job for your county's household hazardous waste drop-off instead. Tools, sporting goods, shelving, bikes, and years of general overflow are all fine to load, no matter how long they've been sitting in the garage.
How long does a garage cleanout take?
A single corner clears fast, while a garage stacked floor to ceiling takes a while longer to work through. Either way, that time is factored into the number the crew names before they start, not tacked onto the bill once the job is finished, whatever shape the garage was in.
What happens to everything afterward?
Whenever local facilities will take it, the crew routes items to donation or recycling, and whatever's left goes to standard disposal. That holds for a single corner of overflow the same as it does for a fully packed two-car garage, based on what the facility accepts, not on anything else.
Why Veteran Junk Removal for a garage cleanout?
Instead of naming a range over the phone, the crew sees the actual garage before giving you a number. Licensed and insured, veteran-owned, and based in Taylor, the company prices every garage by the truck space it fills, and you sign off on that total before the first box leaves the shelf.
