Upload Photos & Get Quote →Almost every East Village apartment sits in a tenement walk-up — four, five, sometimes six flights of narrow stairs, no elevator, no service entrance. So the cleanout here isn't about freight slots and COIs; it's about getting a full apartment of furniture and belongings down a tight stairwell quickly, usually on a tight move-out timeline. We do it constantly, and the price is flat across every floor — there's never a walk-up surcharge, no matter how high the unit.
The neighborhood turns over fast. Around Tompkins Square, on the Alphabet City avenues, and the blocks off St. Marks and the Bowery, leases end, roommates move on, and apartments need to be empty and broom-ready before the landlord walkthrough or the next tenant. A lot of our East Village jobs are exactly that: clearing out what a departing roommate left behind, or emptying a unit on a same-day deadline.
Whatever's there — abandoned beds, an old couch wedged in the front room, desks, years of clutter — we haul it, take apart anything too wide for the stairs, and sweep up. Before-and-after photos when the apartment's empty.

| Studio — itemized average | ~$275–$450 |

| Truck-fill — 1/4 (4 cu yd) | $325 |

"Fifth-floor walk-up on East 7th, lease was up the next morning. They cleared the whole apartment — including the couch my roommate left — in under two hours, took it apart on the stairs, no stair fee. Broom-clean for the walkthrough."
"Booked same-day off photos for an Alphabet City studio. Exact price, no surprises, and they swept up after. Made a stressful move-out painless."
"My dad's rent-stabilized place near Tompkins Square — decades of stuff, six flights, no elevator. They were patient, careful, and got it all down. Flat price held."

No. Almost every East Village building is a tenement walk-up, so four- and five-flight carry-downs are the norm here, and pricing is flat across every floor with no surcharge. Anything too wide for the narrow stairwell gets disassembled in place.
