Empire Junk Pick Up is the locally owned, locally operated junk removal company that the Inland Empire calls when clutter, bulk items, and post-project debris need to disappear quickly. Whether you have a single mattress in the garage, a backyard piled with old shed boards, or an entire estate that needs a full cleanout, we show up on time, lift it ourselves, and haul it away the same day whenever our schedule allows. One phone call to (909) 561-0437 turns a frustrating mess into a clean room, a clear driveway, or a finished jobsite.

We built this company on a simple promise: a flat-rate quote that includes the labor, the truck, the disposal fees, and every other cost that competitors love to slip in at the end. You will never hear "that will be extra" once our crew arrives. The price you accept on the phone or in your driveway is the price you pay.

What We Haul Away

We take almost anything that is not hazardous. If you can point at it, we can probably load it onto our truck. Our most-requested services include:

  • Junk Removal: Garage cleanouts, attic clearouts, basement haul-aways, yard debris, and general household junk
  • Hot Tub Removal: Drain, dismantle, and haul away hot tubs and spas in one appointment
  • Furniture Removal: Couches, sectionals, mattresses, dressers, recliners, dining sets, and office furniture
  • Shed Removal: Wood, metal, and resin shed teardowns, including foundation cleanup
  • Piano Removal: Upright, console, baby grand, and full grand piano disposal
  • Construction Debris Removal: Drywall, lumber, flooring, tile, roofing, and remodel waste

If your job does not fit neatly into one of those buckets, that is fine. Estate cleanouts, foreclosure cleanouts, hoarding situations, eviction prep, garage band gear, exercise equipment, appliances, electronics, and yard waste all get the same treatment: a flat quote, a fast pickup, and proper disposal.

How Empire Junk Pick Up Works

We made the booking process boringly simple on purpose. There are no apps to download, no contracts to sign, and no sales pitches to sit through.

Step 1: Tell Us What You Have

Call us at (909) 561-0437, fill out the form on this page, or text us a couple of photos. A photo of the pile, the room, or the item is the fastest way to get an accurate price. We respond within minutes during business hours.

Step 2: Lock In a Flat Quote

Once we see what you have, we give you a single all-inclusive number. That number includes labor, the truck, fuel, dump fees, recycling fees, and tax. There are no surprise charges for stairs, long carries, heavy items, or "extra time." If something changes onsite (you decide to add the patio furniture too, for example), we will tell you the new total before we touch a thing.

Step 3: We Show Up and It is Gone

Most of our jobs are completed within a two-hour arrival window, often the same day you call. Our crew arrives in a marked truck, in uniform, ready to work. We protect floors and walls on the way out, sweep the area when we are done, and leave you with the clean space you wanted.

Why the Inland Empire Chooses Empire Junk Pick Up

Plenty of trucks roll through Fontana, Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario, and Riverside with a phone number on the door. Here is what makes us different.

We Are Inland Empire Owned and Operated

We live here. Our crew grew up in these neighborhoods. When you call us, you are not calling a national franchise's call center in another state. You are calling a small business that knows the difference between a Fontana HOA's bulk pickup rules and a Rancho Cucamonga gated community's loading restrictions.

Flat-Rate Pricing With No Hidden Fees

Our quote is all-inclusive. The phrase "all-inclusive" gets thrown around a lot in this industry, so here is exactly what it means at Empire Junk Pick Up:

  • Labor for two crew members (more on larger jobs at no extra charge to you)
  • Truck, fuel, and equipment
  • All disposal and recycling fees at state-permitted facilities
  • Sweep-up after the job
  • Sales tax

No fuel surcharges, no "stair fees," no "heavy item upcharges." If we agreed to $X on the phone, you pay $X.

Same-Day Service Whenever the Schedule Allows

We know clutter rarely gives you advance warning. A water heater fails. A couch finally collapses. A tenant moves out and leaves behind a basement full of memories. Most calls received before noon get same-day service in our core Inland Empire service area.

Eco-Friendly, Legally Compliant Disposal

Every load we haul is sorted at our staging area. Anything still useful gets donated to local charities and reuse stores. Metals go to recycling yards. Mattresses are routed to mattress recycling programs whenever available. Construction materials are sorted for clean wood, metal, and concrete recycling streams. Whatever has to go to a landfill goes to a state-permitted disposal facility, never to an empty lot or storm drain.

Friendly, Background-Trustable Crews

Reviews mention our team by name (Adam, Jimmy, and the rest of the crew) for a reason. We treat your home and your time like our own. Shoes off when needed, drop cloths on carpets, no foul language, no dragging things across hardwood floors.

What Our Customers Say

"Adam was fast and reliable. He provided same-day service. Great customer service and friendly. I would recommend this company to friends and family."

"Choosing Empire Junk Pick Up was the best decision I made to get my house clean. Jimmy was very professional and very knowledgeable about moving the sofa. Asset to the company."

Common Junk Removal Scenarios in the Inland Empire

Empire Junk Pick Up handles every kind of clutter situation, but a few scenarios come up over and over across Fontana, Rancho Cucamonga, Riverside, and the rest of the Inland Empire. If yours sounds familiar, you are in the right place.

The Garage That Finally Has to Be Tackled

Years of accumulated tools, paint cans, broken bikes, holiday decorations, and storage bin towers. The car has not parked inside for two summers. Pick a Saturday, call us in the morning, and watch the garage become a garage again by the afternoon.

The Move-Out That Got Out of Hand

You are moving out, the lease ends Sunday, and there is too much for the moving truck. Or you are a landlord and a tenant left behind two rooms of belongings, mattresses, and small appliances. Same-day or next-day cleanouts are exactly what we do, and we work the move-out timeline most landlords face.

The Backyard Project Aftermath

A new patio, a pool installation, a shed teardown, a tree removal, or a weekend landscaping push leaves a pile in the side yard nobody knows what to do with. We come once at the end and clear it.

The Estate Cleanout

A parent has moved into assisted living or recently passed. The home is full of decades of belongings. Family is divided about what to keep. We arrive with the patience to work alongside you, set sentimental items aside, donate what we can, and haul the rest. We have done this many times. We know it is not just about furniture.

The "I Bought a Foreclosure" Situation

Investors and first-time homebuyers buying foreclosed properties in the Inland Empire often inherit a houseful of debris from the previous occupants. We work directly with new owners, agents, and property managers to clear properties before painting, flooring, and listing.

If your situation is not on this list, it is still very likely something we handle every week. Just call.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does junk removal cost in the Inland Empire?

Junk removal in the Inland Empire is typically priced by volume, meaning how much space your items take up in the truck. Empire Junk Pick Up uses flat-rate pricing that includes labor, disposal, and transportation, with most single-item pickups starting around the cost of one bulky item and full truckloads priced separately. Send a photo to (909) 561-0437 for a free, no-obligation quote.

Do you offer same-day junk removal?

Yes. Empire Junk Pick Up offers same-day junk removal across most of the Inland Empire when you call before noon. Our service window runs 8 AM to 8 PM seven days a week, so even late afternoon calls often get a same-day or next-morning pickup.

What items do you not take?

We cannot take hazardous waste, which includes wet paint, motor oil, gasoline, propane tanks, asbestos, medical waste, and most chemicals. Almost everything else (furniture, appliances, electronics, yard waste, construction debris, old play structures, and more) is fair game.

Do I need to be home for the pickup?

You do not need to be home as long as the items are accessible from the driveway, curb, side yard, or an unlocked area, and we have payment arranged in advance. Many of our customers leave items out and pay over the phone after we send a "complete" photo.

How fast can you give me a quote?

Most quotes go out within 10 minutes of receiving photos during business hours. Phone quotes are usually faster, but a photo is the most accurate way to lock in a price before our crew arrives.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Empire Junk Pick Up carries general liability insurance and disposes of waste only at state-permitted disposal and recycling facilities, in full compliance with California environmental rules.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept all major credit and debit cards, cash,

Do you do estate and foreclosure cleanouts?

Absolutely. Estate cleanouts, foreclosure prep, eviction cleanouts, and hoarding situations are some of our most-requested jobs. We handle these with discretion, sort sentimental items at your direction, and donate or recycle whatever can be saved.
