Junk removal in East Hampton is a crew job: we bring a 20-yard truck and two people, you point at what goes, and the price is confirmed before anything is loaded. In East Hampton, where a house sits decides how a load goes out.
What East Hampton jobs tend to look like
Around Lake Pocotopaug the parcels are tighter and many are older shore cottages, where the truck may sit on the road and the crew carries the length of the lot. Away from the lake it flips: rural lots with long driveways, where the truck pulls up to the garage and the job is simply how much has built up in the outbuildings. East Hampton Center has a small civic-historic core, and Middle Haddam and Cobalt are smaller village sections with rural-residential lots.
The truck
We show up with a 20 cubic yard truck — bigger than the standard 15-17 cubic yard industry truck, so you can toss more for less. More volume per dispatch means fewer trips, lower aggregate cost on bigger jobs, and predictable sizing math when we tier the truck-load pricing. The two-man crew rides with the truck — we do the loading, you point at the pile.
What customers told us afterward
We cleaned out my parents house and used Grizzly for all the stuff nobody wanted. Old couches, beds, kitchen table, bookshelves and boxes everywhere. Huge job and they handled it.

How fast we get to East Hampton
Next-day is the dependable default; an early call sometimes catches a same-day opening.
East Hampton sits at the edge of our mapped Middlesex County service area, so we book it next-day by default. Either way you get a real arrival window at booking, not a callback. Middlesex County dispatch runs Mon–Sat 8 AM – 4 PM.
Common East Hampton junk removal calls
Lake Pocotopaug cottage clear-outs
Tighter, older shoreline parcels where the carry to the truck is the slow part, not the loading.
Rural-lot garages and outbuildings
Rural lots away from the lake: long driveways the truck can use, and volume that tends to live in garages and sheds.
Village-center and Cobalt homes
Smaller village lots in the center, Middle Haddam and Cobalt, usually a straightforward driveway pickup.
The ladder
- $179 minimum — a single mattress, an old appliance, a small pile of junk by the curb
- $359 — quarter truck — typical garage cleanout or partial basement
- $559 — half truck — apartment-sized cleanout, single-room renovation debris
- $809 — three-quarter truck — single-family decluttering, large estate room
- $979 — full 20-yard truck — full-property cleanouts, whole-home work
Thirteen tiers in total, $179 at the bottom for a single item through $979 for the whole 20-yard body. Truck space is the unit — not weight, not item count, not hours. The crew reads the tier off the load before the truck leaves, and it's confirmed with you on site rather than mailed afterwards.

What our customers say
Y “Spectacular service, even during Covid! First, a human answered their phone immediately and was clear and courteous. How rare these days! I got an appointment for next day! As promised, received a call that crew was on its way. My mother gave me last minute permission to move a fridge, not part of original request. So I had to tell the poor guys upon arrival that there was a surprise fridge move, two in fact, one removed, one moved within house. Crew didn't flinch. Then one fridge move required its doors AND house door to come off, which they achieved with impressive skill. I'm a manager in my work life and can say their professionalism was superb. Also, important for environment, the company claims to recycle materials. A+ on every level.”
Y “Amazing experience! I would definitely hire them again! Every interaction with this company, from setting up the appointment with Justin, and then having to move it up, because my long distance home movers moved up their delivery day at the last minute, and to the appointment itself, has been a wonderful, and positive experience. When we had to change my delivery window at the last minute, Justin was incredibly helpful and accommodating. And the amazing movers, Eric and Mike, "Big Mike", were so wonderful, professional, helpful, kind, and did excellent work.”
Y “It's spring cleaning time! Who am I going to call? the same great company I called 3 times before...grizzly junk pros! I have found these guys to be experts in moving large bulky items. They are hard workers, honest, fair and extremely efficient. I won't take a chance on any other company because I know what to expect from this one. They've done my cellar, things inside the house and now will call them for cleaning out the attic. The areas I've called them for aren't easy to maneuver in...amazing how they adapt to the job at hand.”

Decks, sheds, hot tubs, fences and above-ground pools we take down ourselves and haul the same visit. Interior and structural demolition is coordinated through our licensed demolition partner — the debris still goes out in our dumpsters.

Demo work in East Hampton
A lot of what people call junk removal starts with something that has to come apart first. A deck that's rotted through, a shed nobody has opened in a decade, a fence line finally coming out. Taking those down and hauling them away is the same visit for us, and it saves you coordinating two companies around one driveway.
Where the work goes inside the walls — cabinets out ahead of a renovation, a basement stripped to the studs — that is a licensed demolition job and we bring in our partner for it rather than pretending otherwise. The debris still leaves in our cans, on our schedule. Demolition is quoted on its own because scope varies far more than volume does.
Dispatch and service area
East Hampton is about 50 minutes from our West Haven yard via Route 9 and Route 66, the far end of our Middlesex run, so we book it next-day by default. An early call sometimes catches a same-day opening.
Phones answered 8 AM – 10 PM, 7 days; live team Mon–Fri 8 AM – 4 PM, AI phone assistant other times. Full town list at Service Area.
