What attic and garage cleanouts involves

Attic and garage cleanouts are rarely quick weekend projects. Decades of boxes, broken equipment, old furniture, and forgotten holiday decorations have a way of compressing into spaces that feel impossible to tackle. Junk Genius has been clearing out exactly this kind of accumulation for about 15 years, with 1,987 five-star Google reviews backing up every job. The crew shows up, carries it out, and hauls it off. You don't lift a thing. Call (612) 444-5865 for a free estimate and same-week scheduling.

What drives the cost of an attic or garage cleanout is pretty straightforward: volume, access, and what's in there. A single-car garage with a mix of boxes and old lawn equipment lands in a very different range than a two-car garage packed floor to ceiling, or an attic stuffed with 30 years of holiday storage and water-damaged furniture. Jobs typically range from a few hundred dollars to well over $1,000 on larger full-property cleanouts. Tight attic hatches, steep pull-down stairs, and second-floor access all add labor time. If there are appliances to pull or a mattress or two buried in the mix, those get handled in the same trip. Every job is different, contact Junk Genius - Minneapolis for an accurate estimate.

How It Works

Three Steps to a Clear Garage or Attic

  1. 01

    Call or Book Online

    Reach the crew at (612) 444-5865 or grab a slot through the online form. Most jobs get scheduled the same week, often sooner. Tell us what you've got and roughly how much. We'll get you a ballpark before anyone drives out.

  2. 02

    We Load, You Watch

    The crew arrives on time, walks the space with you, confirms the scope, and gets to work. Attic access, tight staircases, heavy old chest freezers. We've handled it. You point, we carry. No sorting required on your end.

  3. 03

    Gone. Properly.

    Everything leaves in the truck. Items that can be donated go to local charity partners. Anything recyclable gets sorted out. What's left goes to a licensed facility. We donate and recycle as much as we can whenever possible.

What We Take

What a Garage or Attic Cleanout Actually Covers

If it fits through the door and isn't a regulated hazardous material, we've probably hauled it before.

Old Furniture

Couches, dressers, shelving units, bed frames, and chairs that migrated from the house to the garage and never left. We carry them out regardless of weight or condition.

Appliances

Old refrigerators, chest freezers, washers, dryers, and water heaters show up in garages constantly. All of it gets removed and disposed of responsibly, no illegal dumping, no mystery drop-off.

Boxes and Bins

Decades of holiday decorations, old paperwork, kids' gear, and miscellaneous storage. You don't have to open every box. We load it and sort what can be donated or recycled.

Sports and Lawn Equipment

Broken bikes, rusted grills, old push mowers, snow blowers that haven't started in five years. All of it goes. If it rolls, lifts, or drags, the crew handles it.

Construction Leftovers

Drywall scraps, lumber odds and ends, old fixtures, and renovation debris tend to pile up in garages after projects. We clear it out and dispose of it properly.

Attic-Specific Loads

Insulation-covered boxes, holiday storage, old luggage, and water-damaged items are a different job than a standard garage pull. Older Twin Cities housing stock means steep stairs and low clearance, the crew knows how to work those spaces.

Quick Facts

What to Know Before You Call

Free Estimates Before Any Commitment

Call or submit the online form. We size up the job, give you a number, and you decide. No pressure, no invoice for showing up.

Same-Week Scheduling, Seven Days a Week

The crew works Monday through Sunday, 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Weekend availability matters when you're finally ready to tackle the project and don't want to wait until next week.

Donation and Recycling Built Into Every Job

Items in usable shape go to local charity partners rather than a landfill. Electronics get recycled properly. This isn't an upsell. It's how every job runs.

Licensed Crew, Verified Track Record

MN License #3772090-2. Crews hold MSW Hauling and Waste Management Safety certifications. The 4.9-star average across 1,987 Google reviews isn't marketing. It's a public record anyone can check.

Fast and very good communication. Cleaned out some debris I have been looking at for months. Well worth the price for getting it gone quickly. Saved me a day of doing it myself. Thank you!

Sosa and Diego did an incredible job on my garage. I had bought a house and the seller had left all sorts of junk in the garage including an old fridge and many mattresses. They were able to work with me to get it done fast and affordably. I will definitely be keeping them in mind for future work

I had a few places come do estimates, and Junk Genius was definitely the most reasonable. They were also able to switch our day/time when we had something coming up. Big shout out to Lester and Isaiah! They were friendly, respectful of the space, and incredibly efficient!

Jobs That Often Come With a Cleanout

Most attic and garage cleanouts aren't just boxes. Here's what else frequently needs to go.

Appliance Removal Disposal

Old refrigerators, freezers, and washers are some of the most common items pulled during garage cleanouts. Proper disposal requires certified handling. We do it right.

Mattress Removal

Mattresses abandoned in garages and attics need to be handled separately from general trash. They get recycled, not dumped at the curb.

Basement Cleanout

Garages and basements tend to fill up together. If the basement needs clearing too, we can tackle both in the same visit rather than scheduling two separate jobs.

Estate Cleanout Services

Inherited properties often mean a full-house situation: attic, garage, and multiple rooms all at once. Estate cleanouts get their own approach with appropriate care and discretion.

Donation Drop Off

Items in good shape don't have to go to a landfill. Usable furniture, clothing, and household goods get routed to local charity partners as part of standard haul-away.

Yard Debris Removal

Once the garage is clear, the yard often comes next. Brush piles, old lumber, and storm debris get hauled in the same trip if the timing works.

FAQ

Common Questions About Attic and Garage Cleanouts

How much does it cost to have someone clean out a garage?
Garage cleanout pricing depends on volume and what's in there. A partially filled single-car garage might run a few hundred dollars. A packed two-car garage with appliances, furniture, and years of accumulated debris can run well over $1,000. Access matters too: narrow gates, long carry distances, and heavy items add labor time. Every job is different, contact Junk Genius - Minneapolis at (612) 444-5865 for an accurate estimate.
What is an attic clean out?
An attic cleanout means physically removing everything stored up there: boxes, old furniture, holiday decorations, water-damaged items, and whatever else has been pushed up the pull-down stairs over the years. In older Twin Cities homes, attic access is often tight and the stairs steep, which makes it a job most people don't want to do alone. The crew carries everything out, sorts what can be donated or recycled, and hauls the rest.
What's included in a $99 junk removal service?
Honestly, not much. A $99 minimum fee typically covers a very small load, maybe a single item or a tiny fraction of a truck. A full attic or garage cleanout is almost never a $99 job. Be cautious of low advertised minimums on larger jobs, the final bill often looks very different. Junk Genius gives you a real quote based on actual volume before any work starts.
What is the best way to clean out a garage?
If you're doing it yourself, the standard advice is to pull everything out, sort into keep/donate/trash piles, and deal with each. That works on paper. In practice, most people underestimate how long it takes and how much they actually have. Hiring a crew handles the labor, the hauling, and the disposal in one shot. For anything larger than a very light cleanout, the time savings alone are worth it, and responsible disposal is included.
Do you sort through items during a cleanout, or does everything get thrown away?
Items don't all go to the same place. Anything in usable condition gets evaluated for donation to local charity partners. Electronics, metals, and recyclable materials get separated. What remains after that goes to a licensed disposal facility. We donate and recycle as much as we can whenever possible. You don't need to pre-sort anything. That's part of the service.
Can you remove an old refrigerator or chest freezer during a garage cleanout?
Yes, and it happens on almost every garage job. Old refrigerators and chest freezers require specific handling for refrigerant disposal. You can't legally dump them at the curb or drop them at a standard landfill. The crew handles appliance removal as part of the cleanout. No separate trip needed, no additional coordination.
More questions (1)Fewer questions
How long does a typical garage cleanout take?
A standard single-car garage cleanout with moderate accumulation usually takes one to two hours with a two-person crew. Larger garages, significant heavy items, or tight access points push that longer. Attic cleanouts vary a lot based on how full the space is and how difficult the access is. The crew gives you a time estimate when they walk the job at the start of the appointment.
