Junk Removal in Plano, TX
Furniture, appliances, garage and estate cleanouts and office junk across Richardson's northern neighbor.
A City That Grew Up in Two Decades
Plano was incorporated in 1873, but its modern shape came fast. The city had 17,872 people in 1970 and 72,331 by 1980, according to its history, and 285,494 at the 2020 census. Most of it sits in Collin County, directly north of Richardson.
Homes from that 1970s and 1980s boom are now old enough for estate cleanouts and full remodels, while corporate offices and frequent moves keep office and apartment junk coming.

How Plano's Bulky Waste Collection Works
Plano collects bulky waste monthly on an assigned day, according to the city's bulky waste page:
- Pile sizePiles no larger than 6 by 4 by 4 feet. Larger piles need a special paid collection.
- TimingOut by 7 a.m. on your bulky day, and no earlier than five days before.
- PlacementWithin 6 feet of the alley or curb, clear of carts, fences, vehicles and gas meters.
- AppliancesItems with Freon, like refrigerators and window units, need a special paid collection.
- BrushExcluded from the monthly bulky collection.
When Hiring Makes Sense in Plano
If you can't wait for your monthly day, the pile is bigger than the size limit, the items are still inside, or there is an old fridge in the mix, a hauler is usually the quicker answer. The estimate is free and there is no obligation.
Plano Jobs We Hear About Most
Garage cleanouts in homes from the 1970s and 1980s, estate cleanouts as original owners downsize, furniture swaps, and office clear-outs as companies reshuffle space. Apartment move-outs are steady too. The common thread is timing: the monthly bulky day rarely lines up with a closing date, a lease end or a move. When it doesn't, a hauler bridges the gap.
Hours are 8:00 am to 8:00 pm, Monday through Sunday. Recycling and donation are available for select items.
