Frequently Asked Questions

What do most pickups in Des Moines actually consist of?

Most pickups in Des Moines start with a mattress or a pile of general household clutter. Furniture and appliances follow close behind, especially during a move or a garage cleanout. The crew sorts everything on the spot, so you do not need to separate items beforehand.

Do you take appliances that hold refrigerant?

Yes. Refrigerators, freezers, and air conditioners are removed and handled safely. The crew disconnects them, and the metal is recycled responsibly.

There is no extra step required from you.

How much does junk removal cost in Des Moines?

You pay for the space your load takes up in the truck, not by the hour or by the item. A ballpark estimate is provided up front from a photo or description, and a firm all-in price is confirmed for free on-site before any work starts.

You pay after the job is done, once the load is on the truck, with no hidden fees.

What happens if there is nowhere to park in 50947?

The crew works around tight parking by parking as close as they can and carrying items the rest of the way. They handle stairs, long driveways, and narrow paths as part of the job. No action is needed from you beyond pointing out what goes.
