Seattle Junk Removal Pricing

How does JBG price junk removal jobs?

We price based on volume, weight, and how hard the load is to access. No per-item fees except paint and tires, no fuel surcharges, no surprises. Our price per truckload is the same as or lower than other Seattle haulers, and our trucks hold twice as much. You get a firm quote before any work begins.

What's the minimum charge?

$99. That covers a single small item or a tiny load — and includes labor, hauling, and disposal.

Do you charge extra for mattresses, refrigerators, or hot tubs?

No. Other haulers tack on per-item fees for appliances and mattresses. We don't. These items are included in your base quote — there's no separate fee.

Are there ANY items with per-item fees?

Just two: tires are $10 to $40 each depending on size, and paint is $10 per gallon. We'll always disclose them upfront. Nothing else.

Do you charge fuel surcharges or distance fees?

Never. Whether you're in downtown Seattle, Mercer Island, or Lynnwood, we don't tack on fuel or travel charges. We've been doing it this way since 1989.

How do I get a quote?

The best way is a free on-site estimate — call (206) 722-4285 and we'll come walk the job and quote a firm price. Prefer to text? Send photos to the same number and we'll get back to you fast.

Is the quote binding?

Yes. Once we walk the job and give you a price, that's the price — assuming the load matches what we saw. We don't do bait-and-switch.

What's the 3.6% Washington State Refuse Tax?

It's a state-mandated tax that every Washington junk hauler is required to add to junk removal services. We disclose it upfront so there are no surprises on your invoice.

Do you offer senior, military, or referral discounts?

We offer something better — fair, honest pricing for everyone, every time. No gimmicks, no "discount" off an inflated price. You get the same straight number whether it's your first call or your fiftieth.

What won't you take?

Hazardous waste, asbestos, medical waste, ammunition, explosives, and propane tanks. If you're not sure about an item, just ask.

Why don't you publish a price list?

Because every job is different, and a published price list invites apples-to-oranges comparisons that hurt customers. A free on-site estimate takes 10 minutes and gives you a real number you can actually trust — not a "starting at" range that doubles when the crew shows up.
