Hoarder Cleanout on the
Lower East Side

An old tenement walk-up or a Grand Street co-op held for decades can fill until there's only a path between the piles. JunkRabbit clears it discreetly and without judgment. Our heavy-volume crews dig out room by room at the resident's pace, set aside the documents, cash, and keepsakes we find in the clutter, donate what's usable, and carry it down the narrow stairs — or out the service elevator with a COI for a co-op. No in-home estimate needed — send a few photos and we price the whole job in minutes.

Discreet, judgment-free clearing on the Lower East Side

The LES is old tenement walk-ups with tight stairs and the big Grand Street co-ops, and a hoarding situation in either fills fast — newspapers, mail, bags, and a lifetime of belongings stacked floor to ceiling with one narrow path. We clear it quietly. Crews arrive unmarked, open a usable path first, then work room by room separating keep, donate, and haul. Anything that matters — cash tucked into books, jewelry, deeds, passports, tax records, and old photos — is set aside for you or the resident to review before it leaves. In a walk-up we keep the stairwell and sidewalk tidy as we carry down; in a Grand Street co-op we email the COI to the managing agent and use the service elevator, so neighbors just see a normal move.

We go at the resident's pace and coordinate easily with an adult child, a social worker, a case manager, or Adult Protective Services. If there's a heavy biohazard or pest problem we'll bring in or recommend the right remediation specialist — the clutter, the volume, and the broom-clean finish are ours. No in-home estimate to schedule: send photos and we quote the whole apartment by the truck load in minutes.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a hoarder cleanout cost on the Lower East Side?

JunkRabbit prices hoarder cleanouts by how much the home fills a truck, not by the number of rooms or bags. A quarter truck load is $325, a half $580, three-quarter $790, and a full 16-cubic-yard truck $985; a heavily packed apartment that runs more than one truck is quoted from photos, per truck. The order minimum is $100. Send a few photos for an exact quote — no in-home estimate needed.

Is the cleanout discreet?

Yes. Our crews arrive unmarked and without judgment, keep the stairwell and sidewalk tidy as we carry down, and for a Grand Street co-op we email the COI and use the service elevator — so neighbors just see an ordinary move-out.

Will you recover valuables and documents buried in the clutter?

Yes. We dig out carefully and set aside cash, jewelry, deeds, passports, tax papers, and photos for the resident or family to review before anything leaves. Usable items are donated where we can; the rest is recycled or disposed of responsibly.

Can you work at the resident's pace and with the family?

Yes. We work room by room at a pace the resident is comfortable with and coordinate with adult children, a social worker, a case manager, or Adult Protective Services. No pressure, no judgment.

Can you clear a packed tenement walk-up or a Grand Street co-op?

Yes. We clear floor-to-ceiling clutter from old LES tenement walk-ups by carrying it down the narrow stairs, and from the Grand Street co-ops via the service elevator with a COI on file, leaving the apartment broom-clean. The whole job is priced by the truck load from your photos.
