Storage facilities are designed for putting things in, not getting them out: narrow hallways, elevator-only access, carts you have to fight for. We've cleared 84 storage units in the last 24 months at facilities all over Chicago and the suburbs, so we know the drill. We bring our own carts, we work quickly inside the access hours, and we take everything that isn't marked to keep.

It's also a common job for people handling a parent's estate, or an executor working from out of state. Many facilities will let us in with your written authorization and the gate code, so you don't have to fly in for it. Metal, wood and cardboard get separated for recycling, appliances and electronics go to a local recycler, and anything that can be re-homed instead of landfilled, is.

What We Take

  • Furniture, mattresses and box springs
  • Boxes and bins of household goods
  • Appliances and electronics
  • Business inventory, files and displays
  • Exercise equipment and sporting goods
  • Holiday decorations, toys and clothing
  • Tools and shop equipment
  • Everything, for full 'clear it to the walls' jobs

How Storage Unit Cleanouts Works

  1. 1

    Book the unit

    Call (312) 800-1940 or book online with the facility name, unit number and access hours. Meet us there, or give us the gate code and your instructions.

  2. 2

    The crew quotes at the door

    They look in, quote one firm price for the whole unit, and if you're not there, they text it to you for a yes before anything moves.

  3. 3

    We clear it

    Our carts, our labor. Set aside a keep pile or take those items in your car, and we load the rest.

  4. 4

    Close the account

    We send you a photo of the empty unit so you can cancel the rent that same day.

Real Jobs, Real Results

Storage Unit Cleanouts FAQs

Do I need to be there?

Not usually. With the gate code, the unit number and your instructions, the crew quotes by text, clears the unit while you're at work, and sends you a photo of the empty space. Some facilities do require the renter to be present, so it's worth checking with yours.

Which facilities do you work with?

Any of them: Public Storage, Extra Space, CubeSmart, Life Storage, U-Haul, local independents. We've worked at facilities from Skokie to Naperville to the South Loop.

Can you take just some of it and leave the rest?

Of course. Lots of people keep a small pile of boxes and have us take the furniture and the bulk. Just point at what stays.

What if the unit is in someone else's name (an estate, a parent)?

Facilities usually want written authorization from the account holder or the executor, plus your ID. Sort that out with the facility first and we'll happily do the rest.

Do you clean the unit out completely so I can close it?

Yes, swept and empty, so you can do the final walk-through and cancel the same day.

Free Onsite Estimate, One Firm Price

We don't quote by phone, because we'd rather give you a number we can stand behind. The crew comes out for free, looks at what's going and how it's getting out (stairs, elevators, heavy material and all), and gives you one price that covers everything. Say yes and they do the job right then. Say no and there's no charge, no hard feelings.

  • All labor, lifting & loading
  • Hauling & transport
  • Dismantling in place
  • Full cleanup & sweep-up
  • Disposal & recycling fees

The price is confirmed on site before anything moves, so there are no surprises on the invoice. How our pricing works →
