Junk removal by Grizzly Junk Pros

Junk removal in New London 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. Our junk crews come to New London from the West Haven yard, even though our dumpster delivery area stops at the Thames and the city sits outside it.

What arrives

A 20 cubic yard truck and a two-man crew. The industry standard is 15 to 17 yards; ours is bigger, which matters in a way that sounds like marketing until you're on the third trip with somebody else's truck. More capacity per visit means fewer visits, and fewer visits is where the cost actually comes down on a large job. You point; we carry. Nobody expects you to help lift anything.

How fast we get to New London

Next-day is standard here.

New London is past East Lyme, where drive time rules out a same-day promise, so we book it next-day and say so on the phone. Either way you get a real arrival window at booking, not a callback. New London County dispatch runs Mon–Sat 8 AM – 4 PM.

Common New London junk removal calls

Bulky items the curbside cart can't take

The city keeps bulky items and building materials out of its curbside carts. A crew loads them from wherever they are.

Next-day loads, one item to a full truck

Priced by how much of the 20-yard truck the load fills, and booked for the next day or later.

Pricing, and how the tiers work

Thirteen steps between $179 and $979, measured as a share of the truck rather than as a count of items. A room full of light bulky furniture and a room full of dense boxes can price the same, because the truck doesn't care which one it is.

  • $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

Nothing gets loaded before you have the tier. That ordering is deliberate — a price agreed after the truck is full isn't really a price.

All 13 truck-load tiers — New London

When loading the dumpster yourself isn’t the right call — small volume, awkward access, or you just want it gone today — we send a crew. Pricing runs by truck space used, not by item. Final pricing confirmed before removal begins.

  • 1/8 Truckload$239
  • 1/6 Truckload$309

What our customers say

    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.

    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.

    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.

  • Something to take down first?

    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 New London

Roughly a third of the junk removal calls we take have something to dismantle hiding inside them. Somebody wants a hot tub gone and hasn't thought about how it leaves the yard; somebody wants the old shed cleared and the shed itself is the problem. On decks, sheds, hot tubs, fences and above-ground pools we handle both halves rather than hauling what's loose and leaving the rest.

For interior demo, a kitchen gut, or anything structural, we don't self-perform — that goes through our licensed demolition partner and the debris comes out in our dumpsters. Frequent Track A pairings: deck teardown with lumber haul, shed demolition with debris clearing, hot tub removal with the pad swept. Demolition carries its own quote either way — scope varies too much for a tier.

Junk removal FAQs — New London

Do you deliver dumpsters in New London?
No. Our dumpster delivery area stops at the Thames, and the City of New London is outside it. Junk removal is a separate service: a crew brings the truck, loads it and takes it away in the same visit, and that does come to New London.
Can bulky items go out with the city trash?
Not in the curbside carts. The city's trash guidelines keep bulky items and building materials out of them, and the city doesn't publish a separate curbside bulky pickup. That leaves the city's own drop-off facility or a crew.
How is a New London job priced?
By how much of the 20-yard truck your items take up, on tiers from $179 to $979. The crew confirms the tier before anything is loaded.
What does it cost to dump cleanout debris at the New London transfer station?
New London's published rate for residential construction and demolition material at New London Public Works Transfer Station/Recycling Center (as published September 2026): Bulky Waste (C&D): Resident $85 per ton; Non-Resident or Commercial $95 per ton. 'Note: $5 minimum charge on all items above charged per ton.' (Household Trash (MSW): Resident $80 per ton / Non-Resident or Commercial $90 per ton; mattresses/box springs no charge; toilets $5 each.) Towns repost these schedules on their own timetable, so check the source link before you budget against it. That's the do-it-yourself route; on our jobs the debris rides out in the can that's already on site, weighed once and billed at our posted rates.
When is the New London transfer station open?
The town posts (as published September 2026): Monday - Friday: 7:30 - 11:30 AM and 12:30 - 3:00 PM; First Saturday of the month & Saturdays after Holidays: 7:30 - 11:30 AM and 12:30 - 3:00 PM. Holiday closures apply — check the town's page before you load, or skip the trip entirely and let the can take the schedule problem off your plate.
What's the cheapest junk removal job you'll take in New London?
Our minimum charge is $179 — covers a single mattress, an old appliance, a small pile of junk by the curb. Anything that fits in less than 1/8 of our truck. For very small jobs, that's the floor. Larger jobs scale up by truck-space used, all the way to $979 for a full 20-cubic-yard load.
What can't go in your trucks?
Hazardous waste — paint, motor oil, gasoline, solvents, pesticides, pool chemicals, asbestos, biohazardous material. Lithium and other batteries. CT and NY both run household hazardous-waste programs through most municipalities; we'll point you to the right channel for anything we can't take. Refrigerators, freezers, ACs, and dehumidifiers are fine, but the refrigerant has to be removed (or already removed) per EPA rules — we can document this on pickup.
Do I need to be home for the pickup?
Not always — depends on the job. For interior cleanouts where the crew needs access through the house, yes. For driveway, garage, or yard pickups where items are already accessible, often no — we coordinate on the call. Estate cleanouts and tenant-out scenarios where the family or property manager isn't on-site work fine if access and scope are pre-confirmed.
How fast can you come to New London?
Next-day is the standard for New London; it's past East Lyme, where drive time rules out a same-day promise. We confirm the arrival window when you book. Call (203) 219-8855, 8 AM – 10 PM, 7 days; live team Mon–Fri 8 AM – 4 PM, AI phone assistant other times, to ask.
