Whole-house cleanout in Chico — in and out in a single day. 🦝
When a property management company calls us about a house, the clock is already ticking. Every day a rental sits full of the last tenant's leftovers is a day it can't be cleaned, repaired, or re-rented. This Chico property needed the full treatment — every room, the garage, and the yard — and it needed a junk removal crew that could handle the whole house, not just the big items.
So that's how we ran it: we quoted the job in person for free, the quote was approved, and our crew was inside the house that same day. By the end of the day, this whole-house cleanout in Chico was finished — every room cleared out and broom-clean, ready for whatever came next. Here's how it went, room by room. First, the garage:

The garage is the heaviest lift on almost every house cleanout, and this one was packed wall to wall. We worked it the way we work every garage cleanout in Chico: bulky items out first, then sort and load as we go, so nothing has to be handled twice. By the time we were done, the garage was emptied down to the bare floor — swept out and ready to use again. Then we headed inside, starting with the bedrooms:



Bedrooms on a cleanout are never just a bed and a dresser. We cleared both bedrooms completely — furniture, boxes, and everything left behind in corners and closets. The closets got the same treatment as the rooms: emptied out fully, not just the easy stuff in front. When a property manager walks in after us, there shouldn't be a single drawer, shelf, or closet rod still holding somebody's leftovers. Next up, the living room:

The living room held the big furniture — seating, cabinets, and a mattress that had ended up on the floor. Big pieces are where a DIY cleanout usually stalls: they're heavy, awkward through doorways, and they still have to get to a disposal site once they're out. Our crew moves them every day, so the room went from full to completely empty without the wrestling match. Last room inside: the kitchen.

The kitchen is where a cleanout gets detailed. It's never just the furniture and appliances — it's everything hiding behind them and inside them. We went drawer by drawer and cabinet by cabinet, clearing every shelf, every corner, and the pantry, until nothing was left behind. That's the difference between a quick pickup and a real whole-house cleanout: the small stuff tucked in drawers and cupboards is exactly what usually gets left for the next person to deal with, and we don't leave it. When we finished, the kitchen was completely empty and broom-clean, ready for the cleaning crew and new tenants. All that was left was outside:


Out back, the patio and yard had their own accumulation — bags, debris, and overgrowth around the AC unit. We hauled all of it out so the exterior matched the interior: patio cleared, yard cleaned up, nothing left behind the fence line.
Why property managers call us
Turnovers are a race against the calendar, and a cleanout is usually the first domino — nothing else can start until the house is empty. Property managers and landlords call us because:
- One call handles it. You point at what goes; we lift, load, haul, and dispose. No dump runs, no coordinating a crew of your own.
- Speed. On this job: quoted, started, and finished the same day. When a property needs to turn fast, that's the standard we work to.
- Photo confirmation. We can send before/after photos when the job's done, so you can see the result without driving out to the property.
- No surprises on price. We confirm the exact price in person before any work starts — the number we quote is the number you pay.

Bigger than a cleanout?
Some properties go beyond a standard cleanout. If you're staring at a hoarder house, an estate, or a property that's been sitting for years, we've been there too — see how we handled a hoarder house cleanout in Gridley, where a mobile home needed a full, careful clear-out.
How it works
