We help with junk removal for senior move managers across Chicago and the suburbs, and we know it takes a gentle touch. Downsizing from a family home to a condo or a senior community is a big step, and the things that don't make the move can be the hardest part. We clear what's left: the furniture that won't fit, the basement and the garage, and the closets that hold decades of memories. We're a big company, but a local one, and we're flexible enough to work around whatever your client needs, because we want their experience to be a great one.
Our crews are patient and respectful. We work around your plan, whether that means clearing the house the day after the move, taking a few rooms before the packers arrive, or coming back after the family has chosen what they want. If something is clean and in good shape, we'll try to find it a new home. Appliances and electronics go to a local recycler that recycles them responsibly, and the rest goes to one of our recycling partners. The crew cleans up the area before they leave.
Families can mark anything they'd like to keep. And if they're hoping to find something in particular, like a photo album, the crew will do their best to keep an eye out for it while they work.

How It Works
1
Share the plan
Call or text (312) 800-1940 with the address, the move date and what's staying.
2
Free onsite estimate
The crew meets you or your client and gives one firm price on site that covers the labor, loading, hauling and disposal. It's a free estimate, no obligation.
3
We clear what's left
On the day that fits your timeline, we carry everything out, work around anything marked to keep, and clean up.
4
Photos and a receipt
You and your client get before-and-after photos and an emailed receipt. If the invoice should go to you, just say so.
This Franklin Park family was clearing a three-bedroom house and a detached garage, a job estimated at around 12 truckloads. Before the big push, the homeowner asked for one thing: help finding a few family photo albums and a violin somewhere in the house.
When a family loses a parent, the house is often the last big thing on the list, and it usually needs to happen quickly. This Hickory Hills family wanted their mom's home cleared as soon as possible so they could put it on the market.
A condo in West Lakeview was being sold, and the seller needed everything gone: the sectional and living room furniture, a desk and office items, the dressers and bedroom set, and every cabinet, drawer, closet and the refrigerator emptied out.
Questions About Junk Removal for Senior Move Managers
Can you work around moving day?
Yes! We can clear before the movers, the day after, or in stages. Same-day and next-day appointments are often available Monday through Saturday, and booking ahead is the best way to lock in a specific date.
Will the crew be gentle with my client?
Yes. Our crews are patient and respectful, and they're mindful of how much a family home means. Many of our crew members have been with us over 10 years, some over 15.
What happens to things that are still in good shape?
If they're clean and in good shape, we'll try to find them a new home. If your client would like a dedicated donation pickup, see furniture donation pickup in Chicago.
Does my client need to be there?
It's up to them. Some clients like to be there for the estimate, and some would rather not watch the house being emptied. Once they've moved, if you or a family member can give us access, the crew will call or text the price before anything moves, then do the job and send before-and-after photos. In a high-rise, the building manager or doorperson can let us in, too.
Can you take a lift chair or a hospital-style bed?
Yes. Lift chairs, hospital-style beds and other home-care furniture can all go on the same truck.
Can you invoice my company instead of my client?
Yes. Tell us who should get the invoice, and we'll email it with a payment link.
