Junk Removal Long Island —
Same-Day Service, Pricing & What to Expect
Everything Long Island homeowners need to know about junk removal: how it works, what it costs in Nassau and Suffolk County, what we take, and how to book pickup fast.
What Is Junk Removal on Long Island?
Junk removal on Long Island is a full-service haul-away: our crew comes to your home, loads everything you want gone, and handles all transportation and disposal. You don't rent a truck, you don't sort anything, you don't make a trip to the transfer station. You point, we lift.
Long Island junk removal jobs range from a single-item pickup (one old sofa, one broken treadmill) to full estate cleanouts — entire households cleared in one or two days. Most jobs fall somewhere in between: a garage cleanout, a basement cleanout after a flood, or the remnants of a renovation project that left behind drywall, lumber, and flooring scraps.
LI Junk Co. has been serving Nassau County and Suffolk County since 2013. Over 8,400 jobs. 187+ Google reviews. We operate seven days a week with same-day availability on most days. Here's everything you need to know before you book.

Nassau County vs. Suffolk County Junk Removal
Both Nassau County and Suffolk County have different rules for bulk item disposal and curbside pickup — which is why most Long Island homeowners prefer professional junk removal over trying to navigate the system themselves.
Nassau County Junk Removal
- • Incorporated village rules vary widely — each has its own bulk pickup schedule
- • Town of Hempstead, North Hempstead, and Oyster Bay all have different pickup days
- • No curbside pickup for appliances in most Nassau municipalities — requires separate scheduling
- • Hicksville, Massapequa, Levittown, Garden City: common junk removal towns
Suffolk County Junk Removal
- • 10 towns, each with separate sanitation departments and schedules
- • Brookhaven, Huntington, Islip, and Babylon are the largest towns
- • Transfer station drop-offs available but require town residency and vehicle ID
- • Bay Shore, Huntington, Commack, Smithtown: common junk removal towns
Our junk removal crews know Long Island. We navigate town permit requirements (some communities require a permit for dumpster placement on a public street), HOA access rules, and transfer station disposal logistics so you don't have to think about any of it.
Same-Day Junk Removal on Long Island
We keep same-day junk removal slots open across Long Island every day of the week. Call before noon and we can usually schedule an afternoon pickup in most of Nassau County and western Suffolk County (Huntington, Smithtown, Commack, Islip). For eastern Suffolk, earlier notice helps.
Same-day junk removal on Long Island is priced identically to scheduled jobs — there's no rush fee. The only thing that affects price is truck volume.
Estate Cleanouts on Long Island
Estate cleanout is one of our most common Long Island junk removal services. When a loved one passes and the family needs a home cleared out — for sale, for rental, or to settle an estate — we handle the entire job from start to finish.
Our process: we walk the home with you (or your attorney or realtor) and identify what stays, what goes to donation, what gets recycled, and what hauls to the transfer station. We sort on-site. Furniture in usable condition, kitchenware, and clothing go to Long Island nonprofits and donation centers. Electronics go to certified e-waste recyclers. Only the genuinely unsalvageable goes to the landfill.
Estate cleanouts on Long Island are quoted by the job, not by truck load. We visit the home, walk it, and give you a fixed price that covers everything. No surprises when the bill comes.

Junk removal Long Island means we come to you, load everything ourselves, and haul it away — you pay for labor and truck space. Dumpster rental means we drop a container at your property, you fill it yourself over days or a week, and we return to haul it. Junk removal is better for one-time hauls and items you can't move yourself. Dumpster rental is better for multi-day renovation projects where debris accumulates over time.
