Donate when possible
Usable furniture may go to a local organization when they can accept it. Condition, timing, and what that outlet takes that day all matter — donation is an option we pursue, not a guarantee on every piece.

Local furniture pickup & hauling
Kraken Junk Removal provides furniture removal in Johnson City, Kingsport, Bristol, and throughout the Tri-Cities, Tennessee. We pick up unwanted couches, recliners, mattresses, tables, dressers, and other bulky furniture, handling the lifting, loading, and hauling so you don't have to.
In Johnson City, we help homeowners, landlords, and property managers remove unwanted furniture from homes, apartments, and rental properties around West Maple Street, West Pine Street, South Greenwood Drive, and Southwest Avenue.
In Kingsport, we serve homes and rentals around Borden Village, Sevier Terrace, and Netherland Inn Road.

Who it’s for
Households and businesses that need bulky furniture gone without the DIY haul.
Clear out the old couch, bedroom set, or dining pieces when you upgrade or reclaim a room.
Get bulky furniture out without dragging it to the curb yourself before move-out day.
Remove furniture left behind between tenants so the unit is ready for cleaning or listing.
Desks, chairs, filing cabinets, and other office pieces from workplaces and commercial spaces.
Every job is different. Here's what goes into your estimate. The same factors apply to furniture removal estimates throughout the Tri-Cities.
The number of furniture pieces, including bedroom and dining furniture, and how much truck space they require.
Extra-heavy pieces, like sleeper sofas, large sectionals, and recliners, may need additional handling.
Upstairs apartments, staircases, basements, and narrow doorways can add labor.
Long carries, narrow hallways, limited parking, and difficult loading access affect the job.
Some large pieces may need to be taken apart for safe removal. We'll assess what's possible and include any necessary labor in your estimate.
Some items require special handling or additional disposal fees.
Text us photos of your furniture and mention any stairs or difficult access. We'll provide an upfront estimate before work begins.

After pickup
We donate or recycle furniture when possible. What happens to each item depends on its condition and local facility requirements.

Usable furniture may go to a local organization when they can accept it. Condition, timing, and what that outlet takes that day all matter — donation is an option we pursue, not a guarantee on every piece.
We often recycle metal, cardboard, and electronics when local facilities accept them. What can be recycled depends on the material, its condition, and the recycling requirements of each facility.
Broken, wet, or otherwise unusable furniture goes to an appropriate disposal facility. We handle the loading, hauling, and disposal so you don't have to worry about getting rid of it yourself.

“Austin was friendly and professional in assisting me with a couch that needed to be picked up. The price was very affordable as well. I would highly recommend this service and I will be going to them for all my large trash pickup needs now.”

“Austin did a great job moving furniture from one home to another and hauling it away. He was exactly on schedule, professional, honest, trustworthy and went above and beyond what I expected. I highly recommend Kraken Junk Removal for moving and hauling small to large items.”

“Kraken Junk Removal came in and helped my husband and I remove so many furniture boxes from our home after we moved in a year ago. I have had so much trouble finding a dump, recycle centers, or a landfill in the area that was willing to take household items, so finding them via Facebook ad on the Bristol Community Bulletin Board was the biggest blessing! We finally have gotten our space back and couldn't be more thankful for Austin and his wife's help.”

Quantity, size, weight, stairs, carrying distance, needed disassembly, and anything else leaving in the same pickup. You get a free estimate and a clear upfront price before loading begins.
The cheapest option depends on the mattress, your location, access, and whether you have other items to remove at the same time. If you need professional pickup, Kraken can remove mattresses and box springs from inside the home and provide an upfront estimate before the job begins.
Someone who can approve what leaves should be reachable during the job — on site or by phone — so there is no confusion about what stays. Exact access arrangements vary by property; tell us ahead of time if you cannot meet the crew so we can confirm what works for your address.
Clear a path to each piece, set aside anything that must stay, and unlock gates or doors along the exit route. You do not need to move furniture to the curb. Photos of the pieces and the path out before the appointment help the estimate stay accurate.
No. You do not have to drag furniture to the curb. Kraken removes accepted pieces from where they sit — inside the home, in a basement, garage, or storage area — as long as the space is reasonably accessible. If furniture is already outside, pickup is often simpler, but that is not required.
Yes. Stairs and tight halls are a normal part of furniture hauling; that labor is included in the estimate rather than left as a surprise.
Tight doorways, narrow halls, and awkward pieces are common on furniture jobs. We review the piece and the path out from photos or on site and plan the safest way to carry it. Some specialty items may need extra labor or disassembly before they can be moved; if that applies, we discuss it and include it in the upfront price before work begins. We do not assume every sofa or bed can be taken apart.
Yes. Bedroom furniture such as beds, bed frames, dressers, nightstands, and armoires, and dining furniture such as tables and chairs, can go in the same pickup. If other junk should leave with the set, include it in the photos so the estimate covers the full load.
Yes. We remove desks, office chairs, filing cabinets, bookshelves, and other office furniture from homes, home offices, and workplaces. Commercial jobs are priced the same way as residential work: photos or a walkthrough, then an upfront price before we load.
Same-day and next-day openings may be available depending on the schedule, location, and job size. Call or send photos and we will share the soonest opening with an upfront estimate.
Usable pieces may be donated when a local organization can accept them. Materials may be recycled when practical. Anything that cannot be reused or recycled goes to an appropriate disposal facility. We do not promise donation or recycling on every item.
