We’re Not in Gilchrist Yet: But We’re Coming!

Ask before booking. Many companies take furniture, old appliances, yard waste and cleanout debris, but some will not take paint, chemicals, batteries or other hazardous items. Tell them everything on the list, including anything heavy or up stairs.

Ask the company. Some need you there to point out what goes, and some can work from a photo list if the items are outside or easy to reach. Confirm access, parking and any stairs or gates when you book.

With a hauler, the crew loads the items for you. With a dumpster rental, you fill it yourself and the company collects it. Ask each how they charge, such as by volume, by weight or by item, and what is not allowed in the load.

Ask the company what happens to the items, for example whether usable furniture is donated or sorted for recycling and what goes to the landfill. Pros Around lists businesses and does not track where loads end up.

The price depends on the size and difficulty of the job. Some pros publish a starting price on their listing. Ask two or three for a written quote that says what is included, and compare the scope as well as the price.

Only customers who contacted a pro through Pros Around can review them, using a link that works once. Pros can reply but cannot delete a review, and reviews are never sold. An admin hides a review only if it breaks our rules, and the reason is recorded.

By the plan a pro has chosen, then a Featured badge, then review quality. A higher plan can place a pro higher; between pros on the same plan, reviews decide. Anything paid for is labelled.
