Only on Taskly
One post, the whole situation handled
Several jobs bought as one outcome — one Tasker, one price to agree, no coordinating three trades yourself.
Move-out, nothing left behind
The furniture that is not coming, the garage shelf, and the pile in the basement — gone before the walkthrough.

After the trades leave
Debris hauled, the dust cleaned properly, and everything rehung — the part of a renovation nobody quotes for.

What to know about junk removal
Junk removal is priced by volume and by labour, and the two do not always move together. A single mattress carried down from a third-floor walk-up can cost more than a garage of flattened boxes wheeled straight into a van, because what you are buying is the space it takes in the truck plus the effort of getting it there. Anyone quoting you before they know which floor it is on, and whether there is an elevator, is guessing.
Landfill and transfer fees are a real part of the price rather than a markup. Transfer stations often charge by weight, so a load of soil, brick or plaster costs more to dispose of than the same volume of furniture, and a Tasker who quotes you a flat price without asking what is in the pile is carrying that risk themselves — which usually means the quote is padded. Say what the material is and you will get a tighter number.
After you post, here’s exactly what happens
- 1Offers arriveEach one carries a price and an approach, from verified Taskers only.
- 2Ask before you chooseEquipment, timing, whether they’ve worked in a building like yours.
- 3Accept oneYour payment is held by Taskly. Nothing is paid out yet.
- 4Confirm when it’s doneThe money releases and your receipt arrives by email.
What a junk removal usually includes
- Loading from where the items are, not just from the curb
- Transport to a transfer station or depot
- Sweeping the space once the load is out
- Separating donatable items when you ask in advance
- Taking a photo of the emptied space if you are not there
Disposal fees are charged by weight at the station and quoted on top of the labour.
Try nowWhat moves the price
- Volume — how much of the truck the load fills
- Material — soil, brick and plaster tip by weight and cost more than furniture
- Floor and access — stairs, a walk-up, or a long carry to the vehicle
- Items needing a special route: fridges, electronics, tyres, paint
- Whether donations are dropped somewhere on the way
Worth asking before you accept an offer
- Is the disposal fee included in this number or added after?
- What is in the pile — any soil, brick, plaster or shingles?
- Does anything here need certified degassing or licensed abatement?
- Will you sweep the space afterwards?
- Can donatable items go to a charity rather than the tip?

Questions
Frequently asked
Answers to what people actually search for.
Why does the quote change once they see it?
Because volume and weight are what is actually being bought, and neither is visible in a text description. Photos of the pile, the floor it is on and whether there is an elevator will get you a number that holds.
Is the dump fee included?
Ask explicitly. Transfer stations charge by tonne, so most offers quote labour and transport with disposal added at cost. That is normal and honest — a flat price that never mentions weight is the one to question.
What happens to things that are still usable?
Say in the post that you want donations separated and most Taskers will drop them on the way. It is not automatic, because a donation stop takes time and some charities will not accept upholstered items.
Can they take a fridge or an air conditioner?
They can move it, but refrigerant has to be removed by a certified technician before the unit is scrapped. Expect that handled as a separate step rather than folded into a hauling price.
