I have used Windy City Movers for my last three moves in Chicago. Both the moving crew and the in-office staff are great! They wrapped all my items, moved them carefully, and were attentive.

General Junk Removal is one of our Junk Removal services. See the full category
Not every haul job comes with a category. Sometimes it's the garage that finally has to be cleared. The basement corner that accumulated for a decade. The stack of items left behind after a move-out. A single old grill you can't figure out how to get rid of. Or a mix of things, most of which don't fit under any single specialty label but all of which need to leave your home the same day. That's what our general junk removal service is for: the miscellaneous, the mixed, the "just get it out of here" jobs that don't need a specialist crew but do need one that shows up when they say they will and hauls responsibly when they leave.
We've been moving Chicago since 1982, and hauling is the same job in reverse. Same trucks, same crews, same care about the doorway you're passing through on the way out.
Out without a mark
A haul gets the same habits as a move. The path out gets protected, runners on the floors, padding on the door frames and railings where a piece has to turn. Big single items come apart when that's the smarter exit. The load leaves your home under control, with enough hands on it, and your home looks exactly as it did when we arrived, minus the pile.
We handle the range: garage cleanouts, basement clearouts, attic haul-outs, single items, mixed loads, post-move leftovers, yard sale remainders, and the miscellaneous stuff nobody has a good name for. One item or a truck full, same crew, same care. The two things we don't take are the same across all our hauling: construction debris and hazardous waste.
Donate first, dump last
Here's the honest hierarchy: a lot of what's leaving your home has real life left in it. Where a piece qualifies, we'd rather it get a second one, which is exactly what our donation pickup service is for, and we'll tell you plainly which of your items go which way. What's genuinely done gets hauled and disposed of responsibly. Either way it's gone from your home the same day; the difference is where it lands.
When you need a specialist instead
If your job is really about one specific category, we have dedicated service for it. An old piano heads to our piano disposal service. Old appliances go through our appliance removal service. A specific furniture piece is our furniture removal service. A whole home clearing out after a life change is our estate and property cleanouts. If none of those quite fit, or if your haul is a mix of everything at once, general junk removal is the right service.
What it costs
The fee follows the job: what's going, how much of it, and what the exit looks like. A single item off the curb is a smaller job than a garage load out of a walk-up. You get the number upfront, free and non-binding, before anything moves, and the number doesn't change once the truck is loaded.
General junk removal is one branch of our Junk Removal lineup, where all our hauling and disposal services live.
