North Shore Hauling - Junk Removal & Hauling

What basement and attic cleanout looks like with us

Basements and attics hold the things that were meant to be temporary. They are also the two spaces where the carry is the whole job - everything has to come up a stairwell or down a pull-down ladder, one armload at a time. In older Lake County housing stock the basement stairs are often narrow and turn at the bottom, which is what turns a half-day into a full one. We price on what comes out, not on how hard it was to get to.

  • Full carry-out from below grade and from pull-down attic access
  • Water-damaged boxes, carpet and padding removed
  • Old shelving, storage racks and paneling taken out
  • Contents sorted rather than hauled blind

Priced by volume like everything else we do, quoted before we start, with the carry and the disposal fees already inside the number.

How it works

Four steps, no surprises at the end

01

Send a photo

Text a picture of the pile, the room or the item. Most jobs can be priced from that without anybody coming out.

02

Get a number

You get a flat, all-in price covering labor, loading, sweep-up and disposal fees. Not an hourly rate that moves.

03

Pick a slot

Same-day and next-day are often open. If you are working to a closing or a delivery window, we schedule around it.

04

We load and go

We carry it out - stairs and basements included - sweep the space and haul it off. You approve the price before anything moves.

Questions

Common questions

Do I need to be home when you come?

No. Plenty of our jobs happen while the customer is at work. If everything coming out is in the garage, on the driveway or in one clearly identified room, send a photo, mark what goes, and we will confirm the load and send pictures when it is clear. If it is a sorting job where things need to be decided on, it goes faster with you there.

How is the price worked out?

By volume - how much space your items take up in the truck, measured in fractions of a load. Labor, loading, sweeping up and the disposal or recycling fees are all included in that number, so the figure you are quoted is the figure you pay. Nothing gets added on at the end for stairs, distance or weight.

Can you give me a price over the phone?

Usually yes, from a photo. Text a picture of the pile, the room or the item and we can give you a number back the same day for most jobs. Larger or more complicated jobs - a whole house, a hot tub with no path out - are worth a quick on-site look, which is free and takes about fifteen minutes.

How soon can you get here?

Same-day and next-day slots are often available, and we schedule Monday through Saturday with Sunday by arrangement. If you are working to a closing date, a lease end or a delivery window, tell us the deadline when you call and we will build around it.
