Columbus Pricing
One sofa is $126. A queen mattress is $103. A garage that’s quietly filled up for years is usually a half truck, $431. Every number below is what you actually pay in the Columbus area — flat, quoted from a photo before anyone drives out, with carry-out, loading and disposal already inside it.
The minimum order is $75, and the quote you get already includes everything — labor, loading, disposal and tax.
Name the things and you get item pricing — a fixed price per piece. If you can’t, you get truck-load pricing: you’re paying for the space it takes up.
| How full | Price | Roughly |
|---|---|---|
| 1/4 truck | $241 | a small bedroom — bed, dresser, a few boxes |
| 3/8 truck | $338 | a single-car garage’s back wall |
| 1/2 truck | $431 | the most common cleanout size we run |
| 5/8 truck | $513 | a two-car garage, or a small apartment |
| 3/4 truck | $587 | a garage plus a patio |
| 7/8 truck | $661 | a full two-bedroom clear-out |
| Full truck | $732 | a whole-house load |
Less than people expect. Stairs don’t change your price, and neither does same-day. What moves it is weight, volume, and where the load has to go.
Franklin County is one of the cheaper metros we operate in — SWACO’s landfill gate runs about $39.75/ton, with transfer stations closer to $52. That keeps volume jobs here sensibly priced compared with the coasts.
Appliances are handled as white goods at roughly $20 an item on the disposal side, on top of the labor to get them out of a basement or laundry closet.
Concrete, tile, dirt and roofing price by weight rather than volume — a small pile of masonry can outweigh a living room of furniture.
Columbus does run free bulk collection, and when it fits, use it. The catch is the conditions: it’s request-only through 311, it’s limited to occupied dwellings, and some material has to be wrapped before it goes out.
That rules out exactly the jobs people call us for — a vacant unit between tenants, an estate where nobody lives there any more, a basement that has to be emptied before a closing, or anything that can’t sit at the curb waiting for a scheduled date.

Customer Reviews
Columbus is JunkRabbit’s newest market, so these are real Google reviews from our Miami customers — the same vetted-crew, flat-price service.
“Louis was so wonderful! Communicated ahead of time to let me know when he would be arriving, expertly disassembled a couch to remove it from the apartment and left the space immaculate afterwards!”
“Had a plan AND morning confirmation with [another junk remover] and they canceled last minute, an hour before. I was in a bind, and I called & texted the folks at JunkRabbit. They were fast, courteous and available on short notice.”
“Prompt and professional. I will definitely use again.”
No. Downtown, the Short North, Clintonville, Dublin, Westerville — same list.
Yes, and that’s a common one here since the City program only covers occupied dwellings. We just need access.
No. Basement and upper-floor carry-outs are included in the quoted price.
Paint, chemicals, pressurized propane, asbestos and medical waste go through separate routes — ask and we’ll point you at the right drop-off.
No. An Ohio junk removal bill from us carries no tax line; the quote off your photo is the final charge, with a $75 floor on any job.
Yes, that’s most of our Columbus mornings. Leave it in the garage, on the porch or behind a Clintonville fence, tell us where, and we’ll send photos of the empty spot.
Each item has a flat catalog price — a sofa is $126, a queen mattress $103, a refrigerator $164, a washer $133. Loads go by truck-fill instead, from $241 for a quarter of the truck to $732 for all of it. Every job starts at $75.
You should, if you’re in the City, the item is wrapped in plastic, it’s at the curb, and it isn’t part of a move-out or cleanout. The City excludes cleanouts, move-outs, unoccupied homes and a long list of heavy items, and that’s the work we do.
Yes. A refrigerator is $164, an upright piano $290, a hot tub $322 and a pool table $603, each carried out by a crew sized for it.
No. Carrying up from a basement or down from a third floor is part of the flat price.
Often, when a crew has an opening on your side of town. Morning bookings give the best chance.
All of Franklin County and the towns within about 30 miles of the Statehouse — Dublin, Westerville, Hilliard, Grove City, Gahanna, New Albany, Pickerington, Delaware, Lancaster, Marysville, Circleville and more.
