What neighbors are saying

47 reviews. Every one of them five stars.

  • They helped me move two sofas and were incredibly professional, timely, and efficient from start to finish. I really appreciated how careful and considerate they were with the space. Matt was great to work with, very responsive and accommodating. I needed the sofas removed within 24 hours, and he made it happen seamlessly.

  • Super fast and professional. They took a rather challenging job that I have had others deny in the past. They were well equipped with tools to demo and remove an existing steel furnace drum that was original to a hundred year old house. Glad to finally have my space back in my basement. Torvik will be my go-to contractor in my personal and professional projects.

  • Prompt, speedy, affordable and a pleasure to work with. Showed up and removed our hot tub and made sure the area was all cleaned up when he was done.

Who we work with

Homeowners, landlords, and the people settling estates.

We work across Lake County and Northwest Cook County for people who need something gone and do not want to rent a dumpster, borrow a truck, or spend a Saturday on it. That means homeowners clearing a garage, landlords turning a unit between tenants, realtors getting a listing photo-ready, and executors settling a parent's house. If your village hauler already takes it for free, we will tell you to use them.

  • Homeowners clearing garages, basements, and yards
  • Landlords and property managers on turnover deadlines
  • Realtors and executors working to a closing date

Eco-friendly disposal

Less landfill. More donation and recycling.

Before anything heads to disposal, we sort for donation and recycling. Usable furniture and household goods go to local donation centers. Scrap metal and e-waste are routed to recyclers. What cannot be saved goes to a licensed disposal facility. Nothing goes to a curb, a ditch, or a vacant lot.

  • Donation routing for usable furniture and household goods
  • Scrap metal and e-waste to certified recyclers
  • Licensed disposal facility for the rest, never dumped
