Furniture Removal in Cotati, California

1-800-GOT-JUNK charges for furniture removal based on how much space it takes in their truck, with a minimum starting around $129 for single items, and prices increasing with volume (e.g., 1/4 truck load $200-$275, 1/2 truck $400-$600, up to a full truck for $700-$1000+). Expect $150-$250 for a single sofa, but the final price depends on the truck size your furniture fills, with free on-site estimates provided before work starts.

The best way to get rid of furniture depends on its condition and your effort level: donate or sell it if usable (charities, Facebook Marketplace, etc.), use a junk removal service (like 1-800-GOT-JUNK) for convenience, hire a mover/contractor for bundled removal, put it out for curbside pickup (check local rules), or rent a dumpster for large cleanouts. For broken items, consider breaking them down for material recycling (metal, wood) or taking them to a landfill as a last resort.

Junk removal minimum charges typically range from $70 to $150, covering the base cost for a company to send a crew and truck for a small load (like a few boxes or a single piece of furniture). This fee ensures they cover labor, fuel, and disposal, even if you only have one item, with costs increasing based on volume (e.g., quarter, half, or full truckload).

Generally, dumpster rental is cheaper for large volumes of debris or long-term projects, while junk removal is more convenient but pricier for smaller jobs because you pay for labor and their truck space, whereas a dumpster offers a set price for a large capacity, making DIY loading more cost-effective for big cleanouts like remodels.
