How much does junk removal cost in Minneapolis and St. Paul?
The price depends mostly on how much space your items take up in our truck, plus a few smaller factors. Northland Junk gives a free estimate with fully transparent pricing before any work starts, so you know the price before we lift anything.
- Volume: customers often describe a job as half a truck or a full pickup truck load.
- Weight and material: dirt, concrete, brick and similar heavy debris cost more to haul and dispose of.
- Access: stairs, long carries from a basement or garage, and tight spaces add labor.
- Special-handling items: electronics, mattresses and appliances with refrigerants can carry disposal fees.
- Add-ons: extra items you remember on pickup day can usually be added to the same visit.
Which items need special handling in Hennepin County?
Several common household items cannot go in your trash or recycling cart in some Hennepin County cities. Brooklyn Park, for example, bans electronics, appliances and household hazardous waste from household trash, and Champlin bans electronics and batteries from its refuse and recycling containers.
Hennepin County lists drop-off fees for mattresses and for appliances with refrigerants, and its drop-off sites in Bloomington and Brooklyn Park take household hazardous waste from residents only, not from businesses or rental properties. Tell us what you have when you call and we will confirm how it is handled before we quote your job.
- Electronics and batteries
- Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners
- Mattresses and box springs
- Paint, chemicals and other household hazardous waste

Junk Removal questions, answered
How much does junk removal cost in Minneapolis?
Junk removal pricing in Minneapolis depends on how much space your items fill in the truck, how heavy they are, and how hard they are to reach. Northland Junk gives every customer a free estimate with transparent pricing before work begins, so you approve the price before we load anything.
What does Northland Junk haul away?
Northland Junk hauls away furniture, appliances, household junk, construction debris, yard waste, and full garage, home, property and commercial cleanouts. If you are unsure about a specific item, such as electronics or a mattress, call or text us and we will confirm before the crew arrives.
Do you recycle and donate what you pick up?
Yes. Northland Junk recycles and donates as much as possible to keep items out of the landfill and give back to the community. Usable furniture and household goods are the best candidates, so tell us if you want specific items kept in circulation.
Can I put an old mattress, TV or fridge in the trash?
Usually not. Many Hennepin County cities, including Brooklyn Park, ban electronics, appliances and household hazardous waste from household trash, and the county charges drop-off fees for mattresses and refrigerants. Call Northland Junk and we will tell you how we handle each item.

Do stairs change the price of a pickup?
Stairs and long carries add labor, so we ask about them when you call. Customers regularly have items in basements, upper floors and garages, and our crew handles the lifting. Telling us about access up front keeps your free estimate accurate.
