Junk Removal That Fits the Property, Not Just the Load
Getting rid of junk in Back of the Yards is not always as simple as putting everything at the curb.
Many properties in the neighborhood are older homes, two-flats, and small apartment buildings. Furniture may be upstairs, appliances may be in the basement, and the easiest way out may be through a rear entrance or gangway.
That is why we ask about the property as well as the items.
If you are near 47th Street, Ashland Avenue, Sherman Park, or on one of the residential blocks between the main corridors, tell us where everything is located. Floor level, stairs, parking, rear access, and carrying distance help us understand the job before the crew arrives.
You do not need to drag everything outside first. Show us what needs to go and tell us where it is.
What Junk Removal Services Do We Provide?
We handle small pickups, larger household jobs, move-out junk, and cleanouts. The service depends on what you need removed and where the items are located.

Residential Junk Removal
We remove unwanted household items from homes and residential properties throughout Back of the Yards.
Common jobs include old furniture, mattresses, appliances, boxes, and other bulky items that are difficult to move or transport on your own.
If the items are spread between a basement, garage, and living area, tell us before the pickup so we can plan the job properly.

Furniture Removal
Old couches, sofas, dressers, tables, chairs, bed frames, and other furniture can be removed from inside the property.
This is especially helpful in two-flats and upper-floor apartments where getting a large couch around stairs or through a doorway is the hardest part of the job.
You do not need to carry the furniture downstairs before we arrive.
For furniture-only jobs, see our Furniture Removal in Chicago service.

Mattress Removal
We remove mattresses, box springs, bed frames, and other unwanted bedroom furniture.
If the mattress is upstairs, in a basement, or inside a rear unit, tell us when you request your estimate. That helps us plan the route out before pickup day.
See our Mattress Removal in Chicago service for more details.

Appliance Removal
Old refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers, stoves, and other accepted household appliances can be heavy and awkward to move.
We handle the lifting and removal from the property.
Let us know if the appliance is in a basement, upper-floor unit, or tight utility area. Photos are helpful for large appliances and narrow access.
See our Appliance Removal in Chicago service.

Apartment Cleanouts
Apartment cleanouts are common when someone is moving, a tenant has left items behind, or a unit needs to be cleared before the next step.
Back of the Yards has many two-, three-, and four-unit buildings, so stairs and rear access are often just as important as the amount of junk.
We can remove furniture, mattresses, appliances, boxes, and other accepted household items from the unit.
See our Apartment Cleanout service for larger jobs.

Garage Cleanouts
Garages can fill up with furniture, boxes, household items, old appliances, and things that have not been used in years.
You do not need to organize everything into perfect piles before asking for an estimate. Show us what needs to go and we will review the job.
See our Garage Cleanout in Chicago service.

Basement Cleanouts
Basement jobs usually require more carrying than a curbside pickup.
If you have old furniture, appliances, boxes, or other household junk downstairs, tell us about the stairway and the route out.
This is useful for older residential properties around places such as Sherman Park and Davis Square, where basement storage is common in the surrounding housing stock.
See our Basement Cleanout in Chicago service.

Move-Out Junk Removal
Moving often makes it clear which items are not worth taking to the next place.
We can remove old furniture, mattresses, appliances, boxes, and other accepted items before or after your move.
Tetris Movers 23 LLC also provides moving services, so if some items are going to the new address and others need to be removed, tell us which is which.
See our Move-Out Junk Removal service.

Office and Commercial Junk Removal
We remove unwanted office furniture and accepted business junk from local commercial properties.
This can include desks, office chairs, filing cabinets, shelving, boxes, and furniture left during an office change or cleanout.
For businesses along 47th Street, Ashland Avenue, or other commercial parts of Back of the Yards, tell us about loading access, parking, and where the items are located inside the property.

Single-Item Junk Removal
You do not need a full cleanout to call us.
We also handle accepted single bulky items, including:
Couches
Mattresses
Box springs
Dressers
Tables
Refrigerators
Washers
Dryers
Other accepted household items
Send a photo and tell us where the item is located.
Can You Remove Junk From Upstairs or a Basement?
Yes.
We remove accepted items from upstairs units, basements, garages, and other parts of the property.
The important part is knowing the access before the job.
Upstairs Apartments and Stairs
Tell us the floor level and how many flights of stairs are involved.
If a large couch or dresser has to turn through a tight stairway, a photo of the route can help us plan the removal.
Basement Pickup
Let us know whether the basement uses interior stairs, exterior stairs, or another exit.
Heavy appliances and large furniture take more work to move from a basement than from a ground-floor room, so that information belongs in the estimate.
Rear Entrances and Gangways
Some properties are easier to reach from the alley or rear of the building.
Tell us about:
Rear entrances
Back stairs
Narrow gangways
Alley access
Limited street parking
Long carrying distances
These details help us plan where the crew can load without guessing on arrival.

Clearing Junk Before or After a Move
A move-out job usually works best when everyone is clear about what stays, what moves, and what gets removed.
Separate What Is Moving From What Is Going
Before the crew arrives, tell us which items are going to the new address and which items need to be hauled away.
Photos help when there are several rooms involved.
Apartment Move-Outs
Renters often need help removing a mattress, couch, damaged furniture, boxes, or other items before turning over a unit.
If you are moving out of an upper-floor apartment, tell us about the stairs and access when you call.
Rental Turnovers
Landlords and property managers can contact us when furniture, appliances, mattresses, or other accepted items remain after a tenant leaves.
Send photos of what is left and tell us when the unit needs to be cleared.
Junk Removal for Landlords and Property Managers
A rental cleanout is usually about getting the unit ready for whatever comes next.
We help remove accepted items left behind after a move-out so the property can move on to cleaning, repairs, inspection, or the next tenant.
For a faster estimate, send:
Photos of the items
Property address
Floor level
Stair details
Number of rooms involved
Parking or access information
Desired service date
You do not need to describe every small object over the phone if clear photos show the job.
How Much Does Junk Removal Cost in Back of the Yards?
The price depends on the amount of junk and the work required to remove it.
There is no single price that fits every pickup.
Amount of Junk
One mattress is a smaller job than an apartment full of furniture and boxes.
The amount of truck space needed affects the estimate.
Size and Weight
Large appliances and heavy furniture require more labor than smaller household items.
Tell us about anything unusually heavy before the job.
Stairs and Floor Level
An item on the third floor or in a basement takes more work to remove than the same item near the truck.
Stairs and floor level are part of the estimate.
Carrying Distance and Parking
If the truck cannot stop close to the building, the crew has farther to carry the items.
Limited parking, alley access, and long walks from the unit to the truck can affect the job.
How to Get a Free Estimate
Send photos and tell us:
What needs to go
How many items you have
Where the items are located
Floor level
Stairs
Parking or rear access
Preferred service date
The more accurate the job details are, the easier it is to understand the work before pickup day.
