Dona Ana County Junk Removal, NM

Junk removal in Dona Ana County often starts with a manufactured home, because about 19 percent of the housing here is mobile or manufactured. That means appliances and yard waste sit close together, and both need a crew that can work around tight skirting and narrow paths.

Junk Rhinos handles the lifting and loading so you do not have to.

The county spreads across about 3808.2 square miles, from the urban core of Las Cruces to the open land around Hatch and Santa Teresa. The mix of detached houses, mobile homes, and rural acreage shapes what we haul away each week. Whatever the property looks like, we sort, lift, and load it all.

Junk and debris we remove across Dona Ana County

Two services fit the housing stock here before any others: appliance removal for the older homes and yard waste removal for the rural lots. The full list below covers everything else we take.

How housing varies from Las Cruces to the county line

The county holds about 91,402 housing units for a resident population of about 221,665. That works out to a density of about 58 people per square mile, which means most of the land is open.

The homes cluster around Las Cruces and the smaller towns, while the rest of the county runs to farms and desert.

The housing stock is older than it looks. The median year a home here was built is 1990, and about 32 percent of homes went up before 1980. At the same time, about 15 percent of homes were built in 2010 or later, so the county has both aging and recent construction side by side.

An older home is more likely to need an appliance swap, while a newer one often comes with leftover construction debris.

About 60 percent of homes are single-family detached, and about 10 percent sit in buildings of five units or more. Renters occupy about 35 percent of occupied homes, which turns into move-out cleanouts and landlord turnovers.

The county also authorized about 964 new homes in 2024, so new construction keeps generating debris that needs hauling.

How a Junk Rhinos pickup works in Dona Ana County

The job starts with a ballpark estimate from a photo or description you send in. After that, the crew arrives to confirm a firm all-in price for free on-site before any work begins. You pay after the job is done, once the load is on the truck.

Pricing is by volume, so you pay for the space the load takes in the truck, not by the hour and not by the item. There is no deposit and no online payment required to book, and there are no hidden fees. Same-day and next-day pickups are available in most areas.

Point the crew at what goes and set aside anything you want to keep. They do all the lifting, including stairs, heavy pieces, and tight spaces. Floors and walls are protected, and the area is swept before they leave.

• Crews are fully insured and arrive in branded uniforms.
• Loads are sorted; usable furniture and goods are donated to local charities.
• Metal, electronics, and green waste are recycled.

Where your junk goes after the truck is loaded

Electronics, metal, and green waste get handled separately from the rest of the load. Televisions, monitors, and computers go to certified e-waste recyclers, heavy tube TVs included. Metal from appliances is recycled responsibly, and yard waste is composted or recycled when possible.

Usable furniture and household goods are donated to local charities on your behalf. The crew sorts everything, so items that can be reused do not end up in a landfill. What remains is hauled away properly.

The crew cannot take hazardous materials, including paint, chemicals, solvents, and asbestos. If you are unsure about an item, ask before the visit.
