** With any item you need hauled away using our Full-Service Junk Removal option, the labor of carrying and loading all items that can be practically picked up by 2 team members is included at no additional labor charge. If your job requires demolition or disassembly to practically carry items, or if you need items moved from one area on your property to another or you are using our Labor Services, we will give you an upfront, no-obligation quote for the additional labor.
*** The Best Customer Service On The Planet
Dumpster Rental companies have sold their services as “A way better option than Junk Removal”, and Junk Removal companies have sold their services as “A way better option than Dumpster Rental” for decades now.
WE DO BOTH. Dumpster Rental for the do-it-yourselfer and Full-Service Junk Removal for anyone wanting us to carry and load the items.
Since we do both, it allows us to give our customers clear, unbiased views and advice so they can choose what’s best for them with each project they’re working on.
Many customers use both of our services, either for different projects or different stages of the same project. And others solely use one or the other. This comparison-chart gives you some of the key differences between Dumpster Rental and Full-Service Junk Removal.
DUMPSTER RENTAL
WE DELIVER IT. YOU FILL IT. WE PICK IT UP!

3 CONVENIENT DUMPSTER SIZES
Choose from three driveway-friendly sizes — small, medium, and large — to find the perfect fit for your project. Our friendly, knowledgeable team is ready to guide you to the best option for your needs. Click here for exact dimensions.
FLEXIBLE RENTAL PERIODS
Need it for just one day or up to two weeks? We offer flexible rental periods with 1-day, 3-day, 7-day, and 14-day options, so you only pay for the time you truly need.
CLEAN, WITH EASY ACCESS
All 1-800-JUNKPRO dumpsters are delivered clean (swept out) and have a fully operational full-swing back door for easy walk-in access – making it simple to load even bulky items.
DRIVEWAY-FRIENDLY
We’ve designed our dumpster service to be as gentle on your property as possible. Our lighter-weight trucks and specialized lift system minimize pressure on your driveway, and each dumpster comes with driveway-friendly wheels. For extra protection, we offer optional “dumpster-coasters” to keep the dumpster from touching your driveway’s surface.
Dumpster Rental is the best option if you are a “do-it-yourselfer”, or you need time to sift through your items. We deliver it. You fill it. We pick it up!
FULL-SERVICE JUNK REMOVAL
WE’RE ON-TIME. WE LOAD IT. WE HAUL IT AWAY!

FULL-SERVICE
means all you have to do is point. We go anywhere in or around your home or business to get the items, do all the heavy carrying and loading, then leave the area broom-swept.
JUNK
is anything, in any condition, you no longer want or need.
REMOVAL
means “We Make It Go Away”. If it’s in good shape, we’ll donate it. If it’s too far past its prime, we’ll recycle it. If it cannot be donated or recycled, it will be disposed of properly. Our full-service Junk Removal teams will remove and haul the items from wherever they’re located. No need to take them to the curb, or even outside. We’ll gladly pick up one or ten items, or do a total clean-up of an estate, rental property, construction site, or closed business. And yes, we meant to say “one or ten” items!
