We handle the sorting, lifting, loading, hauling, and garage clean up needed to leave the space cleared and usable again. Whether you need one wall emptied or a garage that hasn't been usable for years, our garage junk removal service takes care of the job from start to finish — without renting a dumpster or making repeated dump runs yourself.
Boxes, totes, old furniture, tools, shelving, lawn equipment, appliances, and years of miscellaneous items that have taken over the space.
Garage cleanout for homeowners, renters, landlords, property managers, and real estate professionals preparing a listing or turnover.
Clear one bay, half the garage, or the entire space. We price based on what needs to go — not a blanket rate for every job.

What We Take
Garages tend to become catch-all storage for boxes, furniture, appliances, tools, and other garage junk that slowly takes over the space. Our garage clean up service combines removal, hauling, and cleanup so you're not left dealing with the bulky, dusty, and long-forgotten items yourself.

Boxes & Misc
Packed boxes, storage totes, bags, holiday decorations, and general household clutter that has piled up along walls and across the floor.

Furniture & Appliances
Couches, chairs, tables, mattresses, refrigerators, freezers, and other bulky items that have been stored in the garage instead of inside the house.

Tools & Shelving
Broken shelving, old workbenches, tool chests, storage racks, and workshop setups you no longer want taking up wall space.

Outdoor Overflow
Lawn mowers, trimmers, bicycles, sports gear, and items that spilled into a shed, carport, or side yard — often handled in the same visit when access allows.

Remove leftover items between tenants and prepare garages for the next renter without coordinating dumpster rental and multiple dump trips.

How It Works
Show us what needs to go, approve the upfront price, and Kraken handles the heavy lifting. Most garage cleanouts are completed in a single visit.
Call, text photos, or request an estimate so we can see the garage layout, confirm what stays and what goes, and provide an upfront price before loading.
We confirm the scope and provide a free, no-obligation price before anything is loaded.
Our crew removes items from inside the garage — lifting, carrying, and loading so you are not stuck doing the labor.
We load the truck, haul everything off the property, and finish with a basic broom sweep of the cleared area — picking up loose debris left from the cleanout, not pressure washing or janitorial cleaning.

Real Kraken Jobs
1 / 4
Even if your garage is packed wall to wall, you don't have to sort or move everything first. Just show us what stays and what goes, and we'll handle the cleanout from there.
Bulky furniture, appliances, and clutter that prevent a vehicle from fitting inside the bay.
Old shelving, workbenches, and storage racks that need to come out before the space is usable again.
Overflow from the garage into sheds, workshops, or carports on the same property — often cleared in the same visit.

After Pickup
Once items leave your garage, Kraken handles responsible disposal. Usable goods may be donated when practical, recyclables are separated when possible, and everything else goes to appropriate disposal facilities.
Usable furniture, equipment, and household goods may be donated when a local organization can accept them.
Metal, appliances, and other recyclable materials are separated when practical.
Items that cannot be reused or recycled go to appropriate disposal facilities.
Upfront Pricing
There is no posted starting price because garage jobs vary too much. These are the factors that shape your estimate — volume and access matter more than a generic flat rate.
How much is in the garage and how much truck space it occupies once loaded.
Long carries from the back of the garage, tight paths, blocked entry points, and limited parking add labor.
Large furniture, appliances, workbenches, and heavy equipment take more handling time.
Jobs that require separating donate-able, recyclable, and trash items may take longer than a straight haul-away.
Shelving, racks, or large items that must come apart before hauling are priced up front — not as a surprise on load day.
Sheds, carports, or other overflow areas cleared in the same visit can change the quote.
You get pricing before loading begins. Approve the estimate, then we start hauling — no hidden fees after the fact.

Questions
Straight answers about garage cleanout pricing, what we take, and how scheduling works in Johnson City, Kingsport, Bristol, and the surrounding Tri-Cities.
Garage cleanout pricing depends on how much is in the garage, how bulky the items are, how much truck space they take, and the labor involved. Long carries, tight layouts, heavy items, sorting, and extra areas like a shed or carport can all affect the quote. Kraken provides a free estimate and a clear upfront price before loading begins — we do not publish a one-size-fits-all rate because a few boxes along one wall is a different job than a two-car garage packed floor to ceiling.
Yes. Kraken provides garage cleanout throughout Johnson City, Kingsport, Bristol, and surrounding Tri-Cities communities such as Gray, Jonesborough, Elizabethton, Piney Flats, Blountville, Church Hill, and Mount Carmel. If you are nearby and not sure we cover your address, call and we will confirm.
Most non-hazardous household junk commonly stored in garages — boxes, totes, old furniture, tools, shelving, lawn equipment, bicycles, exercise gear, broken appliances, and general clutter. Hazardous materials such as wet paint, fuels, chemicals, propane tanks, and similar restricted items require specialized disposal and are not accepted as part of standard garage cleanout service. Send photos if you are unsure about a specific item.
No. You do not need to sort, bag, or move everything to the driveway first. Point out what stays and what goes — Kraken removes accepted items from inside the garage and handles the lifting, carrying, and loading. If everything is already staged outside, pickup is often simpler, but that is not required.
Yes. Reclaiming parking space is one of the most common reasons homeowners book a garage cleanout. We clear bulky items, stacked boxes, and years of stored clutter so the bay can be used for a vehicle, workshop, or organized storage again.
Often, yes. Sheds, workshops, carports, and similar overflow areas on the same property can frequently be handled in the same visit when access allows. Include those spaces in your photos or walkthrough so the estimate covers everything that needs to go.
No. Kraken cannot accept hazardous or regulated materials that require specialized disposal. That includes wet paint, gasoline or diesel, propane tanks, pesticides, solvents, automotive fluids, medical waste, asbestos-containing materials, and similar restricted items. For those materials, contact your local waste authority or a licensed hazardous-waste handler. We are happy to clear the non-hazardous junk around them when safe to do so.
After we haul the load, usable items may be donated when a local organization can accept them. Metal, appliances, and other recyclable materials are separated when practical. Anything that cannot be reused or recycled goes to an appropriate disposal facility. Donation and recycling depend on condition and what local outlets can take that day — we do not promise that every item will be donated.
Same-day and next-day garage cleanout may be available depending on the schedule, your location, and how large the job is. Call or send photos and we will tell you the soonest opening along with an upfront estimate.
Yes. You do not have to empty the entire garage in one visit. We can clear one wall, half the space, or everything that is marked to go — as long as the scope is clear before loading, we price based on what actually needs to be hauled.
