Junk Removal
You Can Actually
Plan Around
Most homeowners don’t just want someone with a truck. They want a Tacoma junk removal team they can count on to show up, give a fair price, and clear everything out when they say they will.
Every cleanout is different; the way we work isn’t. Clear communication, upfront pricing, and quick, careful hauling — that’s what you can expect from Empire Junk Removal on every Tacoma junk removal job, from the first quote to the final sweep-up.
One person helps you from start to finish.
You work with the same point of contact for your quote, scheduling, and pickup. No getting passed around or wondering who’s in charge. You always know who to call with questions.
Estimates returned promptly — and honestly
We don’t leave you guessing what junk removal will cost. When we give you a price, it reflects the actual load size and work it takes to haul it away in Tacoma.
Responsive throughout the job
You’ll hear from us before you have to ask. If anything about timing, access, or the load changes, you’ll know about it the same day.
Licensed, insured, and disposing properly.
Empire Junk Removal carries full liability coverage. We follow local Tacoma and Washington rules for dumping, recycling, and donating — no shortcuts that create problems later.

Meet Our Company
Empire Junk Removal is a locally owned junk removal and cleanout company serving Tacoma and the greater South Sound.
We started with one truck and a willingness to show up on the days other haulers wouldn’t. That has not changed much, except that there are now three trucks and a crew who have been with us for years.
Every job we take on is priced before we start, handled by people you have already met, and disposed of the right way. Donations go to local reuse centers, metals go to the scrapper, and only what is left over goes to the transfer station.
If you have a pile you have been walking around for six months, that is the job we like most. Send us a photo and we will tell you what it takes to make it disappear.
Our Junk Removal Services
Although junk removal is at the center of what we do, our services go beyond basic hauling. We provide specialized junk removal solutions for homes, businesses, properties, and cleanup projects across Washington.
Estate Clean-out Service
We help clear out homes after a move, downsizing, or the loss of a loved one. Our team removes unwanted furniture, household items, and other belongings with care and efficiency.
Residential Clean-out Service
From garages and basements to full-home cleanouts, we remove unwanted junk from residential properties. We make the process simple so you can reclaim your space without handling the heavy lifting.
Commercial Clean-out Service
We provide cleanout services for offices, retail spaces, warehouses, rental properties, and other commercial locations. Our team works efficiently to remove unwanted items while keeping disruption to your business to a minimum.
Demolition Service
We handle light demolition projects such as sheds, cabinets, decks, and other small structures. After demolition, we also remove the debris and leave the area ready for your next project.
Construction Cleanout
We clear construction and remodel debris from Tacoma jobsites — drywall, lumber, flooring, and leftover materials — so your crew can stay focused on the build and leave the hauling to us.
Pay-at-Close Service
Cleanout costs can be difficult to manage when a property is already being prepared for sale. Our pay-at-close service gives eligible Washington sellers, agents, and property owners a way to complete the cleanup now and handle payment when the property closes.

How It Works
What to Expect When You Work With Empire Junk Removal
Hiring a junk removal company is a big decision. Here is exactly how our crew runs a job, from the first photo you send to the final sweep.
5
clear steps
Send photos or describe the pile. We reply the same business day with a ballpark range so you know whether it is worth a site visit.
We come to you in Tacoma. We’ll look at everything you want gone, confirm access, and ask a few questions so we can give you an accurate junk removal price instead of a guess that changes later.
You’ll receive a written or on-site estimate that explains what we’re hauling and what it costs. No vague fees or surprise add-ons. If anything is unclear, we’ll walk you through it before we start.
Once you’re ready to move forward, we schedule the pickup and get to work. You’ll have one point of contact throughout. If timing or load size changes, you’ll hear from us the same day.
When loading is complete, we walk the area with you before we consider the job done. We sweep up and make sure no debris or trash is left behind. If something isn’t right, we fix it before we go.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Hiring a Junk Removal Company in Tacoma
Still have a question? Call us and talk to the person who would be running your job.
Most single-room or garage jobs are finished in two to four hours. Full-house cleanouts and construction debris removal usually run one to two days, and we will tell you which one you are looking at before we start rather than after.
We schedule an on-site visit, look at what you need removed, and give you a written junk removal estimate that breaks down the work and the cost. There’s no charge for the estimate and no obligation to move forward. Same-day, on-site estimates. The estimate is free and you will know the cost while our team is on site. If the number is agreeable, we will do the work right then and there.
In most cases, no. You don’t need to move heavy items to the curb or sort everything. We work around your schedule, do the heavy lifting, and keep disruption to a minimum. If we need special access, we’ll tell you in advance so you can plan.
Yes. We follow local Tacoma and Washington rules for dumping, recycling, and hazardous items. We separate out what can be donated or recycled whenever possible so less ends up in the landfill.
Empire Junk Removal is fully licensed and insured for junk removal work. We carry general liability coverage on every job and are happy to provide documentation before any work begins.
