Junk Removal in Aptos, CA
Junk Gone hauls couches and other furniture, mattresses, appliances, hot tubs, garage and estate cleanouts and yard debris from homes in Aptos, from Aptos Village and Rio Del Mar to the hillside lots toward the Forest of Nisene Marks. Our crew handles the carrying, the loading and the haul-away.
Beach cottages, townhomes and hillside houses on long private drives each bring their own carry, so we ask for a photo and a few notes on access before we plan the job.

Local bulky pickup vs. hiring us
Curbside service in unincorporated Santa Cruz County, which includes the Aptos area, comes from GreenWaste Recovery. Its Bulky Item Reuse Collection allows three pickups a year without an added charge. A pickup covers roughly two cubic yards of reusable goods, five e-waste items, or three appliances or bulky pieces, with refrigerant-containing fridges counting double. Nothing over 200 pounds is accepted. Booking goes through GreenWaste, so double-check that your address is covered.
When your pile is small and can sit at the curb, that program is a sensible first call. When it is heavy, on a second floor, at the bottom of a long driveway or simply bigger than the allowance, we step in and do the carrying. Some people prefer a self-haul run instead: Buena Vista Landfill near Watsonville and the Ben Lomond Transfer Station are the county sites, and each checks proof of residency. Loads we collect go to a proper facility, with reusable pieces donated and metal recycled where we can.
Estate, hoarder and move-out cleanouts in Aptos
Emptying a home that held a lifetime is slow, careful work, and Aptos has plenty of long-held coastal cottages and hillside houses to prove it. For an estate cleanout, we work with families and executors on the order and pace that suits them: keepsakes and papers set aside, usable furniture offered for donation, the rest hauled.
A hoarder cleanout is a sensitive job, and we treat it that way: discreet, respectful and in stages if that is easier. Landlords and property managers can also use us for tenant move-outs and eviction cleanouts. A photo sent to (408) 310-0246 gets you a free quote.

Aptos junk removal FAQs
Does the county bulky pickup cover Aptos?
Aptos is in unincorporated Santa Cruz County, where GreenWaste Recovery offers a Bulky Item Reuse Collection with a few free pickups a year. GreenWaste’s page does not name Aptos, so confirm your address when you book. If your items are over the limits, call us.
Can you get a couch down a long hillside driveway or steep stairs?
Usually, yes. Show us the couch, the steps and any tight corners in a picture. From there we work out the carry, remove legs or split sections when needed, and agree on a trailer spot with you.
Do you work in Rio Del Mar, Seacliff and Seascape?
Yes, along with Aptos Village and the hillside streets. Give us your address and a picture, and a free quote follows.
What can't you take?
Hazardous products stay off our trailer: think paint, solvents, motor oil and pesticides. Unincorporated-county residents can bring them to the county household hazardous waste program at no cost, once they show proof of residency. Unsure about something? One picture is enough for us to say.
Do I need to be home?
Often not. Pieces at the curb, in an open garage or in the yard can go without you there. Anything indoors needs someone to let us in, and we will arrange the details by text.
Can I take a load to the dump myself?
Certainly. Just remember that the Buena Vista Landfill and the Ben Lomond Transfer Station both check proof of residency at the gate. Plenty of people hand us the loading, driving and unloading instead.
