The #1 question we hear: “How much does it cost to haul away my junk?” Here’s the honest answer, with real numbers from our Toledo-area jobs.
🚚 Truck-Load Pricing
Most junk removal companies in Toledo — including us — price by how much space your junk takes up in the truck, not by the hour. Here’s what that looks like:
| Load Size | What It Covers | I-HAUL Price |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum (1-2 items) | A couch, mattress, or a few boxes | $89 |
| Quarter Truck | A bedroom set or small office | $179 |
| Half Truck | A garage cleanout or small apartment | $329 |
| Full Truck | A full house cleanout or large renovation | $549 |
These prices include all labor, loading, hauling, and disposal. No hidden fees. No hourly rates. You get an exact price before we start, and that’s what you pay.
💰 What Affects the Price?
Three things move the needle:
- Volume: More stuff = more truck space = higher price. Simple.
- Weight: Unusually heavy items (concrete, dirt, pianos, safes) may have a small surcharge because they’re harder to load and cost more to dispose of.
- Access: Ground floor with a clear path? No extra charge. Third-floor walk-up with narrow stairs? We might need extra hands, which can add a bit. We always tell you upfront.
📊 How We Compare to Franchise Companies
The big franchise junk removal companies (you know the names) typically charge 20-40% more for the same job. Why? Franchise fees, corporate overhead, and call centers. We’re locally owned in Toledo — no middleman, no markup.
A half-truck load that costs $329 with us might run $450-$500 with a franchise operation. Same junk, same truck size, different price.
