How the number is decided
Two prices exist for every job and you pay the lower one.
The item list. Every piece has a published price. Add up what is leaving and that is your figure.
The truck share. For mixed loads, piles and cleanouts we price by how much of the truck the load occupies.
The minimum for any visit is $75. Both prices include the carry-out from any floor, the transport and the disposal or recycling. There is no stair charge, no walk-up fee, no fuel surcharge and no dump ticket added afterwards. Nothing is added at the door.
The truck-fill ladder
| Item | Flat price |
|---|---|
| Quarter truck | $325 |
| Three-eighths | $455 |
| Half truck | $580 |
| Five-eighths | $690 |
| Three-quarters | $790 |
| Seven-eighths | $890 |
| Full truck | $985 |
A studio's worth of leftovers is usually somewhere between three-eighths and a half. A fully furnished one-bedroom is typically three-quarters to a full truck. A furnished two- or three-bedroom rarely fits on one truck at all.

Worked examples, so the arithmetic is visible
One problem item. A queen mattress is $139. That is the whole bill, above the $75 minimum, carried down from any floor.
A studio's leftovers. Sofa, queen mattress and box spring: $170 + $139 + $124 = $433.
A kitchen swap. Refrigerator, gas range and dishwasher: $221 + $185 + $147 = $553.
A living room. Three-piece sectional, coffee table and large area rug: $249 + $90 + $92 = $431.
When the truck wins. A one-bedroom where everything goes will usually list higher than $790, so it bills at the three-quarter truck rate instead. We quote both and charge the lower one, every time.
Frequently asked questions
Is this the whole price, or does something get added later?
It is the whole price. Labor, carry-out from any floor, transport and disposal or recycling are all inside the figures above. No stair charge, no fuel surcharge, no dump ticket, nothing added at the door.
Why is there a $75 minimum?
Because a visit costs the same whether it collects one lamp or ten. A $48 floor lamp on its own bills at the $75 minimum; anything priced above $75 stands on its own.
What if my item is not on the list?
Send a photograph. The full catalogue runs to hundreds of items beyond what fits on this page, and if something genuinely has no entry it prices as a misc small item at $47 or a misc medium item at $104.
How do I know whether the item list or the truck price applies?
We calculate both and quote the lower. Small, countable loads almost always come out cheaper as a list. Whole-apartment cleanouts almost always come out cheaper as a truck share.
Do prices change for a walk-up or a building with a freight elevator?
No. The published price is the same in a fifth-floor walk-up in Washington Heights and a doorman building on Central Park West. Building access changes the scheduling, not the bill, and we can issue a certificate of insurance where the managing agent requires one.
