Garage & Rental Cleanouts in Clemson, SC
Clemson runs on the university calendar and so does a good deal of the property in it. Between student rentals, faculty housing, and the permanent residents around Lake Hartwell, the town empties and refills on a schedule almost nowhere else does.
What we usually find in Clemson
The academic calendar is the whole story here. May and August are when garages, apartments, and rental houses get cleared, usually against a lease deadline and usually with furniture nobody is taking home. Landlords and property managers are welcome to book several at once and we will schedule them together.
The jobs that come up most here
Junk Hauling
Move out furniture and household goods left behind at the end of a lease.
Storage Unit Cleanouts
Units rented over a summer and then abandoned are common in a college town.
Garage Cleanouts
Permanent residents around the lake, where the garage holds seasonal gear alongside everything else.
Cleanout pricing in Clemson
Same as everywhere else we go. $299 for the first trailer load and $275 for each one after, with the landfill fees already in it.
- Charged by the load, nothing added
- We sort it with you, nothing leaves unseen

Questions people ask first
Send three or four photos from the doorway and we will come back with an estimate. It is an estimate and not a quote: a photo does not show depth, or weight, or what you have decided to keep. The real number gets settled in person, before we start, with you standing there. If it does not work for you at that point, we leave and you owe nothing.
One trip out with the trailer. It is 5 feet by 8 feet with 5 foot sides, roughly 7 cubic yards. A lightly used two car garage is often one load, a full one is usually two, and packed to the rafters runs three or more. A part full trailer still counts as a load, because the drive and the landfill run cost the same whether it is stacked to the top or not.
For the sorting, yes, at least at the start. We want you to walk the space with us and mark what stays before anything moves. After that you are welcome to go back inside and we will find you if something needs a decision.
Yes, and it is one of our better jobs because you stop paying rent the same month. We do call the facility office first to confirm you are the tenant on the unit and that the account is current, since a unit in default is under a lien and the contents legally cannot be removed.
Yes, a one page agreement before we start, and you can read it on our terms page right now rather than first seeing it on your driveway. It sets out the load count we agreed, the rate, what we cannot take, and the fact that items become ours once they are loaded. It takes about a minute.
They become our property, which is what the agreement covers. From there we may donate, recycle, scrap, repair or resell any of it. That is how the rate stays where it is. Removal is final, so if you are undecided about something, keep it out of the go pile and tell us. We are happy to leave it or to make you an offer on it.
Almost. Paint, solvents, tires, propane, car batteries, refrigerant appliances, and old tube televisions are all turned away at the landfill, so we cannot put them on the trailer. Ask and we will tell you where those do get taken.
Send a few photos and we will tell you what it takes.
Charged by the trailer load, at a published rate, with nothing added on the day.
