Common questions

Junk removal FAQ.

What can't you take?

Hazardous materials. That includes paint, chemicals, asbestos, anything flammable, ammunition, medical waste, and biohazards. Tires can sometimes go (small amounts) โ€” ask in your quote request. If you're not sure about a specific item, send a photo and we'll tell you upfront. We don't want surprises at the door any more than you do.

How fast can you come?

Same-day pickup is often available in Columbus and the closer suburbs. We text a quote within 5 minutes during business hours; once you approve, Donkey schedules a pickup window โ€” usually same-day or next-day.

How big is "a truckload"?

Donkey's standard junk truck holds about 15 cubic yards โ€” roughly 6 standard pickup-truck loads, or enough to clear out a typical 1-car garage. Pricing is volume-based, so you only pay for what's actually hauled.

Do I need to be home?

Usually yes โ€” the crew confirms what's going on the truck before they load, so you can adjust if anything's changed. For driveway-only or curbside items, sometimes not. Let us know in the quote request and Donkey will work with what's easiest for you.

Can you donate or recycle items?

When items are still usable, Donkey routes them to local charities or recycling centers when possible. Working appliances and good furniture are common candidates. Mention it in your quote request and we'll route accordingly.

What about hoarding-level cleanouts?

Donkey handles them. They're priced separately because they often need multiple trucks, and sometimes additional crew. Send photos with your quote request โ€” even rough phone photos help. Donkey has done many of these and they're judgment-free about the situation.

What if I have more than I thought?

That's fine. Donkey prices by the actual truckload, not by what you estimated. If your pile is bigger than expected, they'll quote the actual volume on-site before they load. The free-loading-labor and no-hourly-charge policy means you're never charged extra for the crew's time โ€” only for the volume hauled.
