How much does an apartment cleanout cost in Chicago?
Priced by how much of the truck the load fills — you pay for the volume, not by the hour. A studio or one room is often 1/4 to 1/2 a truck; a furnished one- or two-bedroom runs 1/2 to a full truck.
| Load | Flat price |
|---|---|
| 1/4 truck (≈ one room) | $241 |
| 3/8 truck | $338 |
| 1/2 truck (≈ studio / 1-bed) | $431 |
| 3/4 truck (≈ 2-bed) | $587 |
| Full truck (≈ 2–3 bed furnished) | $732 |
$75 minimum. Carry, stair staging, COI/freight elevator, donation, and disposal included — no per-flight surcharge. Bigger jobs use multiple trucks at the same flat per-truck rate.
Why city pickup can't empty an apartment
Chicago's bulk collection takes a limited number of items through 311, hauled to the alley by you — emptying a furnished unit that way would take weeks and won't touch boxes, closets, or the kitchen. We clear the whole unit in one trip, carry it all down the three-flat stairs or out the River North tower's freight elevator, and donate or recycle what's still good.
What a cleanout covers
- Furniture & mattresses — couches, beds, dressers, tables, the whole unit.
- Appliances — fridges, washers, dryers, disconnected and carried out.
- Boxes, closets & clutter — clothes, kitchenware, paper, the accumulated everything.
- Electronics & e-waste — TVs, monitors, computers, recycled per IL rules.
- Tenant turns, move-outs, downsizing & hoarding situations — handled with discretion.
Why Chicago picks us for cleanouts
- Flat truck-fill price — by volume, not by the hour; no per-flight surcharge.
- Whole unit, one trip — we carry it all out; you don't separate a thing.
- Buildings handled — same-day COI and freight-elevator booking for towers.
- Donation & recycling included, same day if there's room.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an apartment cleanout cost in Chicago?
Cleanouts are priced by how much of the truck the load fills: 1/4 truck $241, 3/8 $338, 1/2 $431, 3/4 $587, full $732. A studio or one room is often 1/4 to 1/2 a truck; a furnished one- or two-bedroom runs 1/2 to a full truck. $75 minimum. Send photos or a video for an exact flat number; carry, donation, and disposal are included.
Can you clear a whole furnished unit in one trip?
Yes — furniture, appliances, boxes, closets, and the odds and ends, all carried down the stairs or out the freight elevator in one trip, COI handled for towers.
Do you donate and recycle?
Yes — usable furniture and goods go to local donation, metal and e-waste are recycled, and only the rest is hauled.
How long does a full cleanout take?
A studio or one-bedroom is a few hours; a packed unit can run a full day. Photos of each room get the flat truck-fill price and a realistic window.
Do I need to sort anything first?
No — point at what goes and it goes. Tape a note on what stays.
Can you coordinate with my landlord or manager?
Routinely — turnover clears run off lockbox codes and manager coordination, photos sent when the unit is broom-clean.
What happens to everything you take?
Usable furniture and housewares to donation partners, metal and electronics to recyclers, only the remainder to licensed disposal.
What does a typical unit cost to clear?
By truck-fill: $241 for a quarter truck to $732 for a full 16-yard load. A furnished 1-bed usually lands between a half truck ($431) and three-quarters ($587).
