Regions

Where we work in Ohio

Ohio is 5 markets, not one. Here is how each one runs.

  1. 01

    Central Ohio

    Around Columbus. Boat calls come from Alum Creek Lake, Hoover Reservoir, Buckeye Lake and Delaware Lake, plus the marinas and ramps that serve them. Residential cleanouts, RV and camper pulls, and commercial hauls across the area.

  2. 02

    Northeast Ohio

    Around Cleveland. Boat calls come from Lake Erie, the Cuyahoga River, Portage Lakes and Mosquito Lake, plus the marinas and ramps that serve them. Residential cleanouts, RV and camper pulls, and commercial hauls across the area.

  3. 03

    Southwest Ohio

    Around Cincinnati. Boat calls come from the Ohio River, Caesar Creek Lake, East Fork Lake and the Great Miami River, plus the marinas and ramps that serve them. Residential cleanouts, RV and camper pulls, and commercial hauls across the area.

  4. 04

    Northwest Ohio

    Around Toledo. Boat calls come from Lake Erie, the Maumee River, Grand Lake St. Marys and Indian Lake, plus the marinas and ramps that serve them. Residential cleanouts, RV and camper pulls, and commercial hauls across the area.

  5. 05

    The Lake Erie shore

    Around Sandusky. Boat calls come from Lake Erie, Sandusky Bay, Put-in-Bay and the Portage River, plus the marinas and ramps that serve them. Residential cleanouts, RV and camper pulls, and commercial hauls across the area.

Services in Ohio

15 services, statewide

Every service is available in every Ohio city we list. Each one has a statewide page with local rules, and a page for every city.

  1. 01

    Junk Removal

    Point at it. It's gone. Full-service junk removal for homes, garages, storage units, and job sites.

  2. 02

    Junk Hauling

    Truck, crew, and trailer for the big loads. Junk hauling is for the jobs that need more than a pickup: multi-truck cleanouts, bulk debris, and heavy or awkward loads that need a trailer and a winch.

  3. 03

    Above Ground Pool Removal

    Drained, dismantled, hauled, and the yard raked flat. We take down above ground pools completely: liner, wall panels, frame, deck attachments, pump, and filter.

  4. 04

    Property Cleanout

    Whole-house, estate, and rental turnovers on a deadline. Estate cleanouts, foreclosure and eviction turnovers, and whole-property clear-outs handled start to finish.

  5. 05

    Bed Bug Furniture Removal

    Sealed, removed, and disposed of without spreading it. Infested mattresses, box springs, couches, and upholstered furniture removed with sealed wraps and a dedicated protocol so the problem does not travel through your hallway or your building.

  6. 06

    RV Removal

    Running or not, titled or not, gone in a day. Motorhomes, travel trailers, fifth wheels, and abandoned campers removed from driveways, storage lots, farms, and back fields.

  7. 07

    Pop Up Camper Removal

    Collapsed roofs and rotted canvas are exactly what we expect. Pop-up and tent campers are light enough that people think they can deal with them later, and heavy enough that they never do.

  8. 08

    Hoarding Cleanout

    Discreet, patient, and done in stages if that's what it takes. Hoarding cleanouts are as much about people as about volume.

  9. 09

    Camper Removal

    Truck campers, slide-ins, and trailers off the property. Slide-in truck campers, small travel trailers, and teardrops removed whether they are on a truck, on jacks, or sitting on blocks in the weeds.

  10. 10

    Boat Removal

    Fishing boats to cabin cruisers, from driveway, dock, or yard. Boat removal takes marine-rated straps, trailers rated for oversized loads, and the experience to back down a marina ramp.

  11. 11

    Sailboat Removal

    Mast down, keel handled, hull hauled. Sailboats need a different plan than powerboats: the mast has to come down, the keel changes how the hull sits on a trailer, and marinas want it done without disturbing the neighbors.

  12. 12

    Sunken Boat Recovery

    Pumped, floated, and out of the water before it becomes a fine. A swamped or sunk boat at the dock is a spill risk, a navigation hazard, and in many states a ticking fine.

  13. 13

    Boat Refloating

    Grounded or swamped, back on the water without a wrecker. Not every boat in trouble needs to be scrapped.

  14. 14

    Fence Removal

    Posts pulled, concrete footings out, line raked clean. Wood, chain link, vinyl, and wrought iron fences removed including the posts and the concrete they are set in.

  15. 15

    Carpet Removal

    Carpet, pad, and tack strips out before the installers arrive. Whole-house carpet and pad removal, including the tack strips and staples, hauled away the same day.

Ohio rules

Titles, disposal, and the rules that matter in Ohio

Boats: titling and registration run through the Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Parks and Watercraft. If you do not have the title, there is a release or abandoned-vessel process and we prepare it with you before pickup. Common waters: Lake Erie, the Ohio River, Buckeye Lake and Indian Lake.

RVs, campers, and vehicles: untitled or abandoned units go through the Ohio BMV. We tell you exactly what to sign so the unit can legally leave your property, and you get documentation.

Disposal: Ohio transfer stations accept most household debris but tires and refrigerant appliances need separate handling. Hazardous materials such as paint, solvents, chemicals, and asbestos go through your county's household hazardous waste program, not through us. Everything else is sorted for donation and recycling first.

Sound familiar?

The calls we get most in Ohio

Every Ohio call starts with a story. Most of them sound like one of these.

  1. 01

    The garage you cannot park in (junk removal)

    Ten years of bikes, boxes, and a broken treadmill. We clear it in a morning and you park inside by lunch.

  2. 02

    Moving day leftovers (junk removal)

    The movers took the good stuff. The old couch, the mattress, and forty boxes of maybe are still in the living room.

  3. 03

    The family home after a loss (property cleanout)

    Decades of belongings, a probate deadline, and siblings in three states. We sort with you and clear the rest.

  4. 04

    The tenant who left everything (property cleanout)

    Furniture, food in the fridge, and bags of clothes. The unit needs to show next week.

  5. 05

    The motorhome that has not started in years (rv removal)

    Flat tires, a seized engine, and a tarp that gave up two winters ago. It needs a flatbed, not a tow strap.

  6. 06

    Inherited and unwanted (rv removal)

    Dad's fifth wheel is in the side yard, the title is somewhere, and the estate needs it gone.

  7. 07

    The driveway boat (boat removal)

    It came with a plan to fix it up. That was six years ago. The neighbors have stopped asking.

  8. 08

    The marina's ultimatum (boat removal)

    The slip is due, the boat does not run, and the dockmaster wants it out by the end of the month.

Questions

Ohio questions, answered

Do you cover all of Ohio?

We list every incorporated city and town with more than a thousand residents, 525 in total, across Central Ohio, Northeast Ohio, Southwest Ohio, Northwest Ohio and the Lake Erie shore. If yours is smaller, we almost certainly still cover it; call and we confirm.

Are you licensed and insured in Ohio?

Yes. General liability and auto coverage on every job in Ohio, and a certificate of insurance emailed on request before the crew arrives.

Can you take a boat or RV without a title in Ohio?

Usually. Boats go through the Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Parks and Watercraft and vehicles through the Ohio BMV, each with a release process for untitled or abandoned units. We prepare the paperwork with you.

How fast can you get to me in Ohio?

Same-day and next-day windows are common in the larger metros. Smaller towns are usually scheduled within a few days. Call early in the day for the best chance at same-day.

Where does everything go?

Donation first, recycling second, licensed disposal last. Ohio transfer stations accept most household debris but tires and refrigerant appliances need separate handling.

What won't you take?

Paint, solvents, chemicals, asbestos, and medical waste. Your county hazardous waste program handles those. Almost everything else goes.
