Junk removal in the San Fernando Valley
We work across the Valley, from Studio City to Sylmar and from Sunland-Tujunga to West Hills. It's a big area, so we plan every job around the street, the house and the drive.

Valley housing, flat and hillside
Much of the Valley floor is a flat grid of single-family homes, many of them ranch-style houses from after World War II with driveways, garages and backyards. You'll see that across Van Nuys, Reseda, Lake Balboa, Winnetka, Canoga Park, Northridge and Granada Hills.
South of Ventura Blvd, Studio City, Sherman Oaks, Encino, Tarzana and Woodland Hills climb into the Santa Monica Mountains, with hillside homes on canyon roads. Apartment buildings line the main boulevards in North Hollywood, Valley Village, Van Nuys, Panorama City and Sherman Oaks, and the NoHo Arts District has newer mid-rise buildings.
At the edges, lots get bigger. Chatsworth, Sunland-Tujunga, West Hills and parts of Sylmar have larger lots, and some have horse properties. Porter Ranch has newer homes in planned communities, and Northridge has many rentals near CSUN.
Jobs that come up most
- Garage cleanouts. Almost every Valley house has a garage, and many are packed to the ceiling. See our garage cleanout service.
- Backyard cleanups: branches, yard waste, old patio furniture and broken playsets.
- Old appliances like fridges, washers and dryers sitting in the garage.
- Full house cleanouts in homes a family has owned for decades, often before a sale.
- Apartment move-outs and unit turnovers in North Hollywood, Van Nuys and Panorama City, plus student move-outs near CSUN.
Access and logistics
In the flat parts of the Valley, access is usually easy. There's often a driveway or curb space close to the garage, which makes loading quick.
Hillside streets south of Ventura Blvd are a different story. Roads near Mulholland Drive and in the canyons are narrow and curvy, with tight turns and little parking. Many of these streets have posted red flag no-parking signs for high fire danger days. Send photos of the street and driveway so we can plan.
Distance and traffic matter here. The 405 and the 101 back up for long stretches, so we plan the order of Valley jobs to keep drive time down. Summer days in the Valley get much hotter than the coast, so on big summer cleanouts we may suggest an early start.
Nearby cities we also work in
We also take jobs in the cities around LA. Just send the address with your request.
Most Valley addresses say Sherman Oaks, Van Nuys or Encino instead of "Los Angeles," and they're all part of LA. You don't need to sort out which city you're in. Send the address with your photos and your preferred date.
