Junk Removal & Hauling Services in Murfreesboro, TN

Murfreesboro Junk Hauling provides full-service junk removal across Murfreesboro and Rutherford County — furniture, appliances, garage and attic loads, estate cleanouts, and lot debris. Pricing is volume-based by truckload tier rather than weight-by-the-pound, so you get a labor-included quote up front and pay the same number when the truck pulls away. Same-day and next-day pickup is standard for residential calls, dispatch usually lands in a 24–48 hour window, and our crew handles every step from carry-out to disposal. We work with homeowners, landlords turning over MTSU-area rentals, estate executors, and small contractors clearing post-renovation debris. Below is the full lineup of services with a link to each dedicated page.

Our junk hauling services

Furniture removal

Single-item and multi-piece residential furniture pickup — sectionals, recliners, mattresses and box springs, bed frames, dressers, dining sets, office desks, and exercise equipment. We handle stair carries from second-story bedrooms in older Boro homes and the awkward doorway turns common in Blackman new builds. A single oversized couch typically falls in the $95–$175 range depending on access; multi-piece pickups roll into a quarter or half-truckload tier. Donation-grade pieces get routed to local nonprofits when condition allows. Read the full breakdown on our furniture removal page.

Furniture & appliance removal

Appliance haul-aways for refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, dishwashers, ovens, microwaves, water heaters, and window or wall AC units. Refrigerant-containing appliances are tagged for EPA-compliant recycling rather than landfilled — fridges, freezers, and AC units route to certified recyclers who reclaim the refrigerant and recover the metal. Most appliance pickups are paired with a furniture or garage load to fill out a truckload tier, but standalone single-appliance calls are scheduled when access is straightforward. Get the full list on our furniture and appliance removal page.

Estate cleanout

Whole-house cleanouts after a death in the family, a downsize to assisted living, or a hoarding situation. We work with executors, realtors prepping a probate listing, and family members who live out of state and need the house emptied before closing. The standard process is a donate–keep–trash sort: items the family marks for keeping go aside, donation-grade pieces route to a partner nonprofit, and the rest gets hauled. Crews are screened, the work is discreet, and we can coordinate around showings or a closing date. See the full process on our estate cleanout page.

Garage & attic cleanout

Stored boxes that haven’t moved since you bought the house, old paint cans, broken tools, holiday decor, baby gear nobody needs anymore, dead exercise equipment, leftover sports gear from kids who graduated. Garages and attics are the highest-volume cleanouts we run because items pile up in unfinished space for years. A typical two-car garage reset fills somewhere between a half and full truckload (a full truck holds about 15 cubic yards). HOAs in Walterhill and Blackman cap bulk pickups, which is why this service drives so much of our residential calendar. Full details on our garage and attic cleanout page.

Lot clearing

Construction debris, brush piles, fallen branches after a storm, old fencing, demolished shed material, and light demo from a residential or small-commercial lot. Rutherford County’s growth means a steady volume of teardowns and rebuilds; we work with homeowners clearing a back acre, contractors who don’t want to tie up a dumpster for a small load, and property managers handling post-tenant lot debris. Loads can be staged for a single haul or split across multiple truckloads when volume warrants. See scope and pricing on our lot clearing page.

Dumpster rental

Roll-off dumpster rental in 10, 15, 20, and 30-yard sizes for cleanouts, renovations, roofing tear-offs, and small commercial projects. The dumpster gets delivered to your driveway, you fill it on your own pace over a 7 to 10-day rental window, and we haul and dispose. Most homeowners use a 15-yard for a kitchen remodel or full garage clearout; contractors lean on 20 and 30-yard sizes for full-house renovations and roofing jobs. The flat rate covers delivery, the rental window, pickup, and standard-volume disposal. Read the full breakdown on our dumpster rental page.

Construction debris removal

Crew-loaded haul-away for active jobsites, post-renovation cleanups, and contractor partnerships. We pull drywall, lumber, demolished cabinets, flooring tear-out, fixtures, and packaging waste so your crew can stay focused on the project rather than the dump run. Standing-account pricing is available for contractors with regular volume; one-off pickups are quoted by truck volume on the same tier system as residential cleanouts. Full details on our construction debris removal page.

Hot tub removal

Drain, disconnect, dismantle, and haul away of working or non-working hot tubs, jacuzzis, and swim spas. We bring a pump for the water, safely disconnect the tub-side wiring, cut the shell into manageable sections on-site, and load the truck with everything broken down. Most removals take 1 to 3 hours depending on size and access. Pricing is a flat per-unit rate based on size, access, and condition. See hot tub removal for the full process.

How our pricing works

Pricing is based on the volume your load takes up in the truck, not weight on a scale. A full truck holds roughly 15 cubic yards of loose junk, and the price is divided into tiers: quarter-truck, half-truck, three-quarter, and full. You see the price for the tier your load fits before we start loading, labor is included, and the figure doesn’t change after the fact. This is more predictable than weight-based dump pricing because heavy items like a cast-iron tub or a single industrial freezer would otherwise spike a weight quote unfairly.

A few situations shift the quote: stair carries from a second-story unit with no elevator, very tight access where the truck can’t get within 50 feet of the load, hazardous items that need separate disposal routing (paint, chemicals, propane tanks), and weekend or expedited same-day jobs. Single-item residential pickups generally land in the $95–$175 range. Quarter and half-truck loads are the most common tier for typical residential calls. For the full breakdown with specific tier pricing, see our junk removal cost page.

What you can expect when you book

The booking process is built so you know what’s happening at every step:

1. Free estimate. Call (629) 280-2785 or use the contact form. Describe what needs to go, the address, and any access notes (stairs, gate codes, narrow driveways). You’ll get a tier-based quote either over the phone or after a quick photo review.
2. Walkthrough or photo confirmation. For larger jobs we’ll either schedule a brief on-site walkthrough or ask for photos so the truck and crew sizing matches the load. This step keeps the day-of estimate accurate.
3. Scheduled time window. You get a 1–2 hour arrival window. Dispatch is typically 24–48 hours from booking, and same-day windows are available when the calendar allows.
4. Load and sweep. The crew loads everything you’ve pointed to, sweeps the area where the items sat, and protects floors and walls on the way out.
5. Payment after the work. Final price is confirmed before the truck pulls away. Payment is collected after the load is in the truck — card, cash, or check.

Common questions about our services

Do you offer same-day junk removal?

Yes when the calendar allows — usually possible if you call in the morning. Standard dispatch is 24–48 hours from booking. Mornings book up faster than afternoons.

What can’t you take?

Hazardous waste — wet paint, gasoline, chemicals, propane tanks, asbestos, and medical waste. Tires, large quantities of dirt, and concrete are case-by-case because of disposal site rules. Everything else residential or light-commercial is fair game.

How does the volume-based pricing actually compare to weight-based haulers?

For typical household loads — couches, mattresses, garage clutter — volume pricing is more predictable because you know the price before loading starts. Weight-based pricing tends to penalize loads that contain a few heavy items relative to their size (a single cast-iron bathtub being the classic example).

Can I get an estimate without an on-site visit?

Yes for single-item and small-load pickups. Send photos and a short description and we’ll quote a tier. Larger cleanouts (full garage, estate, lot) usually warrant a 10-minute on-site walkthrough so the day-of price is locked in.

Do you handle donations and recycling?

Yes. Donation-grade furniture and appliances route to local nonprofit partners. Refrigerant-containing appliances go to certified recyclers. Metal goes to a scrap yard rather than the landfill. The rest goes to the transfer station.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes — general liability and worker’s comp. Property managers and HOAs can request a certificate of insurance before scheduling.
