Wilmington sits right on I-93, which makes it easy to get to and, historically, easy to accumulate stuff. The colonials along Route 38, the split-levels near Silver Lake, the capes tucked behind the Shawsheen River — they all have basements and garages that have been collecting things for decades. If you are staring at a pile that needs to leave, you probably want two things: a real price and someone who will actually show up.
We are a Billerica-based crew that covers Wilmington daily — about ten minutes from our yard to most Wilmington addresses. You text us photos, we text back one flat price. No walkthrough, no pressure, no surprise charges when the truck pulls away.
Photos in. Price back. Gone by next week.
The process takes about two minutes of your time. Snap a few photos of what needs to go, text them to us with your Wilmington address, and we send back one flat price within 24 hours. That price covers loading, hauling, disposal, and a sweep of the area when we are done.
You pick a 2-hour arrival window — morning or afternoon, Monday through Saturday. Most Wilmington jobs are scheduled same or next day. If we say 9 to 11, we are there by 10. We are not going to give you a four-hour window and then show up at the end of it.
On site, the crew loads everything into the trailer. Most Wilmington jobs take one to three hours. You pay after the job is done, only when you are happy. Cash, check, Venmo, Zelle, or card. No deposit up front.
What we take from Wilmington homes
Furniture, appliances, mattresses, box springs, electronics, yard waste, construction debris, and general clutter. If it is not hazardous waste and a human can lift it, we will haul it.
Common Wilmington jobs include basement cleanouts in the older homes near the town center, furniture removal after a move, appliance swaps when the old fridge or washer finally dies, and full estate cleanouts when a family member's place needs to be cleared.
We handle full property cleanouts for estates and foreclosures. If you just need a single couch or a washer gone, furniture and appliance removal is the faster option.
- Old couches, mattresses, dressers, tables, and bed frames
- Refrigerators, washers, dryers, stoves, and dishwashers
- Boxes, bins, and general basement or attic clutter
- Yard waste, brush, and storm debris
- Construction scraps, drywall, lumber, and tile
What junk removal costs in Wilmington
Most Wilmington jobs run between $90 and $650. The price depends on how much space your stuff takes in the trailer. A couple of items is usually $90. A full truckload is around $250. A half trailer runs $425, and a full trailer is $650.
Heavy stuff like concrete, dirt, or tile costs more because of dump fees — we apply a weight multiplier before the job, not after. Stairs add a bit too. One flight adds $40. Two or more flights adds $80.
The number we text you is the price you pay. No fuel surcharges, no disposal fees added at the end. Quotes carry roughly plus or minus 15 percent until we see the job in person — we say that out loud instead of lowballing the photos and surprising you on the day.
| Load size | What fits | Base price |
|---|---|---|
| 1–2 items | A couch, a mattress, a few boxes | $90 |
| Truck load | Pickup truck bed, fully loaded | $250 |
| Half trailer | About 8 cubic yards | $425 |
| Full trailer | About 16 cubic yards | $650 |
Wilmington has its own quirks
Wilmington is a mix of older neighborhoods near the center and subdivisions that went up along the I-93 corridor over the past thirty years. The houses near Silver Lake and the Shawsheen Village area tend to have tighter driveways and older basements with low ceilings. The newer builds off Route 129 and near the Woburn line are more standard. Let us know about access when you text the photos — we have been to most of these streets before.
The Wilmington transfer station on Adams Street accepts some bulky items for residents with a sticker. If it is one or two items and you have a truck, that might be the cheaper route. We will tell you if it is. For most people, paying us $90 to handle the loading, hauling, and disposal beats borrowing a truck, getting the sticker, and making the run yourself.
Wilmington does not offer free curbside bulky-item pickup for most residents. If something is too big for the regular trash, your options are the transfer station or hiring a crew. We are the crew that sends the price before we show up.
Photos on a Saturday, gone by Tuesday
A customer in Billerica texted us photos of her basement on a Saturday morning. She had a flat quote back within the hour, and the whole thing was gone by Tuesday. That is the normal pace. Photos take two minutes. We send a number. You pick a day. The crew shows up and handles it.
Wilmington jobs work the same way. Text us photos on a Monday afternoon, you will have a price by Tuesday morning, and the stuff can be out of your house by Wednesday.
When you should not hire us
If you have a truck, a strong back, and a Saturday morning free, a single dump run will cost you less than our $90 minimum. The Wilmington transfer station on Adams Street charges a fee per load. If it is one truckload of regular junk, that route might be cheaper.
We will tell you if your job is small enough to handle yourself. We would rather lose the job than charge you for something you could do for less. Rule of thumb: if it fits in a pickup truck and you have the vehicle, the dump run wins on price.
Hazardous waste is another reason not to call us. Wet paint, asbestos, chemicals, medical waste, propane tanks — we cannot take those. They need a specialist. If you are not sure whether your stuff counts, text us the photos and we will tell you.
Hourly haulers are paid to be slow
Most junk removal companies charge by the hour. A slow crew with a meter running is their whole business model. We charge by volume — how much space your stuff takes in the trailer. Whether the crew finishes in one hour or three, the price is the same.
A truck load of junk is $250 whether it takes our crew 45 minutes or two hours. A full trailer is $650 whether the basement was organized or buried under ten years of boxes. You know the number before we start, and a slow afternoon costs us, not you.
We are not the cheapest option in Wilmington. If you have a truck and a free Saturday, the dump run is cheaper. What we offer is a flat price before we show up, a crew that loads and sweeps, and payment at the end only when you are happy. You can also read more about how junk removal pricing works on our blog.
Where your stuff goes after we leave
Hauling it does not mean dumping it. Usable items get donated locally — Goodwill, Savers, Habitat ReStore in the Billerica and Wilmington area. Metal and electronics go to licensed recyclers. Only true waste heads to the transfer station.
If there are items in good condition, we will ask if you want them donated. We do not charge extra for donation runs. Some people want everything gone. Others want us to set aside a few things. Both are fine.
Massachusetts has strict disposal bans on certain materials — mattresses, electronics, and yard waste cannot go in the regular trash. We handle all of that. If you have a mattress to get rid of, we wrote a separate guide on how to dispose of a mattress in Massachusetts.
