One couch, one fridge, one mattress, gone the same week

Single Item Junk Pickup in Southwest Louisiana

Key Takeaway

The Junk Guys haul away one item at a time across Lake Charles and Southwest Louisiana: a couch, a fridge, a mattress, a treadmill. Curbside pickup starts at $99 when the item is outside with easy truck access. Full service is a flat $249 when we come inside, carry it out, and sweep up. Most pickups happen the same week you call.

Single item pickup is exactly what it sounds like: you have one thing you need gone, and we come get it. The Junk Guys haul single items for homeowners and renters across Lake Charles, Sulphur, Westlake, Moss Bluff, Iowa, and the rest of Calcasieu and Cameron Parish.

This is the simplest call we get. A broken recliner, an old refrigerator, a worn-out mattress, a busted treadmill — you point at it, we carry it out and load it. No truck rental, no hauling it to the dump yourself, no asking a neighbor to help you lift it.

What you get

What's included

  • All the lifting and carrying — you do not touch the item
  • Removal from anywhere on the property, including upstairs and out back
  • Hauling in our own truck, no rental or dumpster needed

  • Responsible disposal or recycling when it is not
  • A flat, upfront price before we load anything

The process

How it works

1

Send us a photo or describe it

Tell us what the item is and where it sits. A quick photo is easiest. If it is at the curb with easy truck access, curbside pickup starts at $99. If we come inside and carry it out, full service is a flat $249. You get the price on the spot.

2

We schedule the pickup

Most single-item pickups happen the same week you call, and often the same day when the schedule allows. We give you a time window so you are not waiting around.

3

We haul it out

Our crew carries the item out from wherever it is — bedroom, garage, second floor, backyard — and loads it into the truck. You do not lift a thing.

4

We donate, recycle, or dispose

Usable items go to local donation, metal and e-waste get recycled, and the rest is disposed of responsibly. Less ends up in the landfill.

Pricing

How much does single item pickup cost in Lake Charles?

Single-item pickup comes in two tiers. Curbside starts at $99 when the item is outside with easy truck access. Full service is a flat $249 when we come inside, carry it out, and sweep up. You get the exact number before we touch it.

Curbside Single Item

from $99

Item is outside with easy truck access. We pull up, load it, haul it. Route dependent.

Full Service Single Item

$249

We come inside, carry it out, load it, haul it, and sweep up. You point, we handle the mess.

Why we are not the cheapest single-item pickup: you are not hiring a random guy with a trailer. You are hiring an owner operated, licensed and insured crew that protects your space, loads the item, disposes of it right, and cleans up after. Very heavy items and long carries can shift the price, and we confirm it before any work starts.

Built for Southwest Louisiana

Single-item hauling for Gulf Coast homes

In Southwest Louisiana, one ruined item shows up constantly. Humidity swells particleboard furniture, a fridge dies in the summer heat, a mattress soaks up moisture in a garage that is never climate-controlled. You do not need a whole cleanout — you just need that one thing gone.

Hauling a single bulky item yourself is harder here than people expect. Most homes do not have a truck big enough, the dump is a drive, and a wet mattress or a chest freezer is genuinely heavy. That is the gap single-item pickup fills — one call, one flat price, and it is handled.

Quick answers

Single Item Pickup — frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to remove just one item?

It depends on access. Curbside pickup starts at $99 when the item is outside with easy truck access. Full service is a flat $249 when we come inside, carry it out, and sweep up. You get the exact price before we load it, with no hourly meter and no surprise add-ons.

Do you pick up appliances like refrigerators and washers?

Yes. Refrigerators, washers, dryers, stoves, water heaters, and chest freezers are common single-item pickups. We disconnect and haul them, and route them to recycling or responsible disposal.

Can you do same-day single item pickup?

Often, yes. Single items are quick, so when our schedule allows we can get a truck to you the same day you call. Otherwise we book the next available slot, usually within a day or two.

Do I need to move the item outside first?

No. We carry it out from wherever it is — a bedroom, a second floor, the garage, or the backyard. Point at what you want gone and we handle the lifting.

What do you do with the item after you haul it?

If it is still usable we donate it to a local charity. Metal and e-waste get recycled, and anything left is disposed of responsibly at the proper facility. We keep as much out of the landfill as we can.
