Yard
Cleanout

Years of back-yard stuff. Cleared in one trip. The rusted grill, the broken trampoline, the patio furniture that's been sitting there for six years, the shed so full you stopped trying to use it. Tell us what's going, and we load it. Just one item? We have dedicated pages for single-item pickups.

📅 Same-day pickup available Mon–Sat.

What Counts as a Yard Cleanout vs. a Single-Item Pickup

If you have one item, such as a broken trampoline or a rusted grill, that’s a single-item pickup, priced per item and usually done in under an hour.

A yard cleanout is for the full picture: multiple items, shed overflow, years of accumulated stuff. If you’re not sure which applies, call us and describe what you’ve got.

How We Handle Gates, Fences, and Access Issues

Tell us the access situation when you book: a 36-inch gate, a locked side yard, or a shed accessible only through the house. We ask before we arrive.

For large items that won’t fit through any gate, we discuss options when you book.

What Happens to Outdoor Junk After We Pick It Up

Patio furniture and outdoor items in usable condition are donated where possible. Metal is recycled where possible. What can’t be donated or recycled goes to a licensed disposal facility.

Old refrigerators and freezers that ended up outside require proper refrigerant handling before disposal. We handle that as part of the haul.

Yard Cleanouts vs. Yard Waste Removal

Yard waste removal is for organic material: grass clippings, leaves, brush, branches, and tree debris. See our yard waste removal page.

Yard cleanouts are for accumulated non-organic junk. If you have a mix of both, call us and we’ll quote the full job.

Why Junk Doctors

Why Customers Choose Us

1

One Trip: We Don't Leave the Pile Half-Done

We scope the job before we price it. If the back yard has three truck loads of stuff, we bring three trucks. You approve the price before we start, and that number is the number on the invoice.

2

We Handle the Stuff That's Been There for Years

A trampoline sitting since 2017, a grill welded to the patio by rust, a shed so packed you can't open the door all the way. We've done hundreds of back-yard cleanouts across North Carolina, in Raleigh's North Hills, Charlotte's Myers Park, and Greensboro neighborhoods.

3

You Don't Sort, Move, or Haul Anything

You point, we haul. If you're not sure about something, we'll hold it until you decide. You don't need to drag anything to the curb or break anything down in advance.

4

Pricing Based on What You Actually Have

A single broken trampoline and a grill typically runs $135 to $298. A full back yard cleanout is priced by volume. We walk the job before we quote it.
