A straight answer, with real numbers. Junk removal in Miami is priced two ways — a flat fee per item or a flat fee for how much of the truck you fill — with a $75 minimum. Both are quoted from a photo before you book, so there's no hourly meter and no surprise landfill fee. Below is the full 2026 price list, what moves the number up or down, and how it stacks up against a dumpster or city pickup.

A typical few-items pickup (say a couch, a mattress and a dresser) is usually $250–$400 (a couch, a queen mattress, and a dresser is $355 flat). A full apartment or garage cleanout is priced by the truckload, from $241 for a quarter-truck to $732 for a full 16-cubic-yard truck, with bigger homes running multiple trucks at the same flat per-truck rate. The exact number always comes from a photo or video up front.
Best for a known list — a couch, a fridge, a treadmill. Each item has a set price (tables below). Send a photo, get the total, done.
Best for cleanouts and mixed piles. You pay for the fraction of our 16-cubic-yard truck the load fills — from 1/4 to full.
Whichever way it's priced, you're quoted before booking. No hourly clock, no "we'll see at the dump" fees.
A quick rule of thumb: if you can name the items, per-item pricing is usually cheaper and clearer. If it's "a room full of stuff," the truckload price wins.
Our truck holds 16 cubic yards (about 107 standard trash bags). You pick the fill fraction; the price scales with it.
| How full | Approx. volume | Roughly | Flat price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1/4 truck | 4 cu yd (~15 bags) | One room / small garage | $241 |
| 3/8 truck | 6 cu yd (~22 bags) | Studio | $338 |
| 1/2 truck | 8 cu yd (~30 bags) | 1-bed apartment | $431 |
| 5/8 truck | 10 cu yd (~37 bags) | Large 1-bed | $513 |
| 3/4 truck | 12 cu yd (~44 bags) | 2-bed apartment | $587 |
| 7/8 truck | 14 cu yd (~52 bags) | Large 2-bed | $661 |
| Full truck | 16 cu yd (~59 bags) | 2–3 bed furnished | $732 |
$75 minimum. Carry-out, COI, freight-elevator handling, donation and disposal are included. Bigger homes and estates use multiple trucks at the same flat per-truck rate.
Per-item prices are built from volume (how much truck space it eats) and weight (disposal is partly by the pound), plus a few item-specific factors. Here's what actually moves the number:

| Job | Typical Miami cost | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Single item (chair, TV, small table) | $75–$110 | At or near the $75 minimum |
| Couch or mattress | $95–$149 | Loveseat to sleeper sofa / twin to king |
| Large appliance | $109–$183 | Dishwasher to large fridge |
| A few items together | $300–$500 | e.g. couch + mattress + dresser |
| One-room / garage cleanout | $241–$431 | 1/4–1/2 truck |
| Apartment cleanout | $431–$732 | 1/2 to full truck |
| Estate / whole-home cleanout | $732+ (multi-truck) | Same flat rate per truck |
| Option | Cost | Speed | The catch |
|---|---|---|---|
| City of Miami bulky pickup | Free | Weekly window | One bulky item per weekly collection; you haul each piece to the curb by 6am; won't take a whole room, and won't enter a high-rise |
| Dumpster rental | ~$350–$600+ | Days–weeks | Street permit, you load it all by hand, it sits out front for days, nothing is donated |
| DIY truck rental + landfill | Rental + dump fees + your day | Slow | You lift, drive and pay disposal; nothing recycled or donated |
| JunkRabbit flat rate | Photo-quoted, $75 min | Same day if there's room | None — we carry it out, handle the COI/elevator, and donate or recycle |
Free city pickup is genuinely the cheapest route for a single sturdy item you can drag to the curb and wait a week on. For anything inside a tower, anything heavy, anything urgent, or more than one piece, flat-rate removal is usually faster and — once you count permits, dump fees and your own time — often not far off on price.
The City of Miami's bulky-waste program takes one bulky item per weekly collection, set at the curb by 6am and scheduled through 311. Mattresses must be bagged and sealed; refrigerator and freezer doors must be removed; electronics are steered to e-waste recycling and won't be taken as regular trash. That's fine for the occasional sofa at a single-family home — but it can't empty a unit, it doesn't enter a building, and it can't handle a Brickell or Edgewater tower that requires a Certificate of Insurance and a booked freight elevator before anything moves. That's the gap flat-rate removal fills.

Most single-item pickups in Miami run between $75 and about $250, with a $75 minimum. Pricing is either flat per item (e.g. a couch is $126, a mattress $103, a refrigerator $164) or by how much of the truck you fill (1/4 truck $241, half $431, full truck $732). You get an exact flat price from a photo before booking — no hourly meter and no surprise dump fees.
A standard couch is a flat $126 in Miami, a loveseat $95, and a 3-piece sectional $185. That price includes the labor to carry it out of the unit, the building COI and freight-elevator handling in a high-rise, and disposal or donation — there is no extra charge for a high floor or stairs.
Neither hourly nor by guesswork. You pay a flat price per item, or a flat price for the fraction of the truck your load fills. Both are quoted up front from a photo, so the number you are told is the number you pay.
Apartment and full cleanouts are priced by truck volume: a studio or one room is often 1/4 to 1/2 a truck ($241–$431), and a furnished two-to-three-bedroom unit is 1/2 to a full truck ($431–$732). Larger homes use multiple trucks at the same flat per-truck rate. Send photos or a video for an exact number.
