Three routes to booking a Lake Zurich pickup: the online form, a phone call, or a text with photos attached.
Online is fastest. Give us the address, roughly what’s going, and when suits. A price and a slot come back before we set off. Lakefront properties with long driveways are worth flagging so we bring the right truck.
Prefer a conversation? (888) 308-7556. Mention if the property is down a private drive off Old Rand Road or has a steep approach — it changes which truck we send.
Text photos of the load. Suits garage, boathouse and basement cleanouts where the pile is easier shown than written. Rough price back the same day.
Whichever way you book, the process is the same: a price and a window confirmed before dispatch, the crew doing the carrying, and the load separated afterwards rather than tipped whole.
Around Lake Zurich that covers single-item pickups, furniture and mattresses, appliances, televisions and computers, garage and basement clearances, whole-house and estate work, renovation debris and yard waste. Two jobs come up here more than anywhere else we cover: hot tubs, which the lakefront and larger lots produce a steady supply of, and boathouse or shed clearances down by the water. Anything we cannot take is on a short list further down.
Yes, and the sorting happens before anything is disposed of rather than after. Furniture in usable condition goes to local donation partners, televisions and computers to a certified e-waste recycler, and scrap metal, cardboard and appliances are separated out. Appliances holding refrigerant, which includes hot tubs and the garage freezers common out here, are handled separately so the refrigerant can be recovered before the unit is scrapped.
Orange Crew Junk Removal Services cost varies depending on the size and scope of the project. Generally speaking, our services start at $100, depending on the amount of junk that needs to be removed. We offer customized packages for larger projects to meet your specific needs.
Our highly experienced team will provide an on-site estimate before starting the work. So you can be sure that no matter what your requirements may be, we will deliver quality results at an affordable price.
Check out our PRICING page for more information.
There is no minimum number of items. There is a minimum charge, which covers sending a truck and crew out from the Barrington office and works out at roughly what a single-item pickup costs. Beyond that, pricing is by volume: the share of the truck bed your load fills, quoted on site before anything is lifted. Access affects the labor rather than the volume, so a long lakefront drive costs more than the same pile at the curb. Ranges are on the pricing page.
We cannot take asbestos, medical waste, biohazards, fuel, propane tanks, or anything explosive or flammable. Wet paint, solvents and pool chemicals also stay off the truck, though fully dried latex paint is generally acceptable. Because Lake Zurich is in Lake County, those go to a county household hazardous waste facility rather than a Cook County site. Pool and spa chemicals come up often here, so it is worth checking the pump house before the crew arrives.
No, nothing is needed from you. The crew arrives with the truck, dollies, straps, moving blankets and hand tools, and does the loading. You do not need to bag anything, drag it to the curb, or stage it in the driveway first, though moving what you can into one place will shorten the job and can reduce the labor portion of the quote. If items are spread between a house, a garage and a shed, mention it when booking so we send enough crew.
Lake Zurich is covered from our Barrington office at 118 Barrington Commons Ct, about ten minutes south, rather than from the Chicago yard. The same run takes in Barrington, South Barrington, Inverness, Cary, Algonquin and Wauconda. Being that close is why same-day and next-day slots come up here fairly often.
Yes, and it is one of the more common jobs here. We drain the tub, disconnect it, break it down on site and haul the pieces, which is usually the only way to get one out through a gate or side path. Tell us at booking roughly where it sits, whether there is side access, and whether it is still connected to power, since an electrician may need to disconnect it first. The shell is recycled where the material allows and the refrigerant-bearing parts are handled separately.
Usually, but the approach decides it rather than the property. Lakefront drives here are often long, narrow and sloped, with little room to turn at the house end, and a full-size truck that cannot turn has to reverse the whole way out. Tell us roughly how long the drive is and whether there is a turning area. Where it will not work we bring a smaller vehicle and shuttle to the road, which takes longer but avoids damage to the surface.
Both, contents and structure. Boathouses tend to hold decades of accumulation, and a lot of it is damp, which makes the load heavier than it looks and rules out donation for most of the contents. Taking the structure itself apart adds time, so tell us in advance whether you want the building removed or just emptied. If it sits close to the water, mention that too, since we work to keep debris out of the lake.
