What furniture removal involves

The easiest way to get rid of a piece of furniture is to call a crew that shows up, hauls it out, and handles everything in between. Junk Genius has been doing exactly that across the Twin Cities for about 15 years, and with 1,987 Google reviews averaging 4.9 stars, we've earned the right to call it a specialty. Our furniture removal service covers sofas, sectionals, mattresses, dressers, dining sets, bed frames, recliners, entertainment centers, and more. Call (612) 444-5865 and we can often get you on the schedule the same week, sometimes the same day.

What we actually do on a job: we come to you, carry the furniture out ourselves, and sort every load for donation or recycling before anything touches a landfill. We donate and recycle as much as we can whenever possible. Pricing depends on the volume and weight of what you're clearing, how many pieces, and whether there's a tight staircase or an elevator-free apartment building involved. Those variables can push the total anywhere from a modest single-item pickup to a broader household junk removal scope that covers an entire floor of furniture. We don't quote a number until we've seen the job, and there's no charge for the estimate. Every job is different, contact Junk Genius - Minneapolis for an accurate estimate.

How It Works

Three Steps and It's Gone

  1. 01

    Book a Free Estimate

    Call (612) 444-5865 or fill out the short online form. Tell us roughly what you've got and where you are. We'll confirm availability and give you a pickup window that fits your schedule, including weekends.

  2. 02

    We Come to You and Haul It Out

    Mike's crew arrives in the agreed window, walks the space, and carries everything out. You don't move a thing. We navigate stairs, tight hallways, and tricky corners. That's our job, not yours.

  3. 03

    Donation, Recycling, or Responsible Disposal

    Every load gets sorted before disposal. Items with life left in them go to local Twin Cities charity partners. The rest is recycled where possible. What can't be saved is disposed of properly, with MN License #3772090-2 backing every haul.

What We Haul

Furniture We Remove Every Day

If it lives in a room and weighs more than you want to lift, we can take it.

Sofas and Sectionals

Couches are the most common single-item call we get. Full sectionals, sleeper sofas, loveseats, futons. We've carried them all down narrow staircases and through doors that barely fit. We don't leave marks on the walls.

Mattresses and Box Springs

Mattresses can't go in standard recycling bins, and the city's large-item pickup schedule isn't always convenient. We handle mattress removal and route them to recycling facilities whenever possible.

Dressers and Bedroom Sets

Heavy oak dressers, armoires, bed frames, headboards, nightstands. We take the whole set if needed. Bedroom furniture is often the heaviest stuff in a house, and we're built for it.

Dining Tables and Chairs

Big dining tables don't fit in a minivan. We've got the truck and the crew to haul full dining sets, china cabinets, and buffet sideboards in a single trip.

Office Furniture

Desks, filing cabinets, office chairs, bookshelves, cubicle components, we clear home offices and small commercial spaces alike. Pair this with a broader junk removal haul if you've got more than furniture to move.

Hot Tubs and Bulky Outdoor Pieces

Outdoor furniture, patio sets, and hot tubs require a different kind of muscle. We handle the disassembly and haul, not just the easy stuff. Call us before you assume it can't be done.

City Pickup vs. Hiring a Crew

The Free Options and What They Actually Cost You

Minneapolis does offer large-item collection through the city, and Hennepin County has furniture drop-off options. Honestly, if you've got one chair and plenty of time, those routes work. But the city's pickup schedule runs on their calendar, not yours. You're typically looking at a scheduled appointment window, often days or weeks out, and you still have to drag the item to the curb yourself. For a single piece in good weather, that's manageable. For a sofa on the third floor of an Uptown apartment building in January, it's a different story. We're available seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., and we carry it out for you. The benefits of professional junk removal versus doing it yourself come down to time, effort, and whether you want to negotiate a city pickup window or just have it handled.

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!

Frequently asked questions

How do I get rid of a piece of furniture?
The fastest route is a pickup service that comes to you. Junk Genius schedules same-week furniture removal across the Twin Cities, carries the item out of your home, and sorts it for donation or recycling before disposal. You don't need to get it to the curb or coordinate with a city schedule. Call (612) 444-5865 and we'll walk you through the process.
What's the cheapest way to remove furniture?
Dragging it to the curb for a city large-item collection is technically the lowest cash cost, assuming you can manage the physical work and wait for the appointment. Marketplace listings sometimes generate a buyer who picks it up for free. If neither works, professional furniture removal pricing scales with volume and difficulty, so a single accessible piece on the ground floor will typically cost less than a sectional on the third floor of a walk-up.
What is the easiest way to get rid of furniture?
Calling a crew that handles every step. We come inside, carry the furniture out, load the truck, and deal with donation or disposal on our end. You don't schedule a city pickup, you don't list it online and hope someone shows, and you don't muscle a sofa down a staircase. It's the highest-effort option for us and the lowest-effort option for you, which is the whole point.
Do you remove furniture from upstairs rooms and apartments?
Yes, and it's one of the more common calls we get. Twin Cities apartments, especially older buildings in areas like Uptown or Northeast, often have narrow stairwells and no freight elevator. Our crew is trained to navigate tight spaces safely without damaging walls or door frames. We don't add a flat staircase surcharge, we assess the job on-site and price based on the actual scope.
Can furniture I'm getting rid of be donated instead of thrown away?
We make that the first option whenever possible. We donate and recycle as much as we can whenever possible. If your sofa or dresser is in usable condition, we'll route it to a charity rather than a landfill. We can't guarantee donation for every item since condition matters, but we sort every load with that goal in mind.
How much does furniture removal cost?
It depends on what you've got and where it is. A single accessible item costs less than a full room of heavy pieces requiring stair navigation. Jobs range widely based on volume, weight, and difficulty of access. We don't publish flat rates because a number on a page rarely reflects what a real job involves. The estimate is free and happens on-site before any work starts. Every job is different, contact Junk Genius - Minneapolis for an accurate estimate.
More questions (1)Fewer questions
What happens to mattresses you remove? Can they be recycled?
Yes. Mattresses are one of the trickier materials to dispose of responsibly because most curbside recycling programs won't take them. We route mattresses to facilities that break them down by component, recovering steel springs, foam, and fabric separately. It's not always possible for every mattress depending on condition, but recycling is always the first attempt before any landfill disposal.
