Junk piling up in home or garage — Barcelona, Catalonia
When clutter takes over — a garage you can't park in, a basement full of old furniture, an attic packed with boxes — junk removal services send a crew with a truck to haul everything away in a single visit. Unlike regular trash pickup, junk removal handles large, heavy, and bulky items: old sofas, mattresses, appliances, exercise equipment, yard waste, and construction debris. Most companies charge by volume ($150–$600 for a full truck load) and sort for donation and recycling, so usable items don't go to landfill. Typical scenarios: pre-move declutter, estate cleanout, post-renovation debris, garage reclaim, or seasonal purge. The crew does all the heavy lifting — you point at what goes, they do the rest. Most jobs take 1–3 hours.
