Junk Removal in Huntsville, AL
Furniture, appliances, estates and remodel debris, removed across the Rocket City, from Twickenham to the west side.
Alabama's Largest City
Huntsville traces its start to John Hunt's arrival in 1805. It was laid out as Twickenham in 1809 and renamed for Hunt in 1811, according to its history. Redstone Arsenal, rocket development under Wernher von Braun and NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, formed in 1960, turned it into the Rocket City. With 215,006 residents in 2020, it is now Alabama's most populous city, and the only one that reaches into four counties.
The housing ranges from the Federal and Greek Revival homes of the Twickenham Historic District to mid-century ranches and new subdivisions near Madison, and junk removal covers all of it.
Huntsville's Curbside Bulk Rules
Huntsville collects bulky household items at the curb. The city's curbside collection page explains:
- AcceptedFurniture, appliances (refrigerators, washers, water heaters, microwaves), boxes and household items.
- TimingOut by 7 a.m. on collection day, clear of the road, gutter, storm drains and sidewalks.
- LimitsBags no heavier than 50 pounds; bulk above a set volume is charged on the utility bill.
- ExcludedConstruction and contractor debris, shingles, bricks, concrete, dirt, rocks and hazardous waste.
When Hiring Makes More Sense
If the items are still inside, if the job is larger than the city's free volume, or if it is remodel debris the city will not take, hiring is the simpler route. Hazardous materials go to the county's household hazardous waste facility on Cleaner Way.
