How Junk Pickup Works in Fairfax County
Fairfax County says about 90 percent of its residents and businesses get trash service from a private company, billed directly or through HOA fees, and only about one household in ten is a county collection customer. Outside the county’s service areas, whether your couch or old treadmill gets picked up depends on what your hauler’s contract allows.
The City of Fairfax is a separate, independent city with its own trash service, and plenty of county homes share a Fairfax mailing address. We work on both sides of the city line, so you don’t have to sort out which rules apply before you book. More than 1,500 homeowner and condo associations also set their own rules here, which is one more reason our crew loads and leaves the same visit.

Junk Removal for Fairfax Homes and Businesses
Whether it’s a single item or several truckloads, our trained professionals at 123JUNK know how to do the job quickly and safely. We haul unsightly trash, rubbish and yard waste, plus bulky items like pool tables and old playground sets.
Fairfax County’s zoning rules keep outdoor storage out of front yards and limit it in side and rear yards, tarp-covered piles included. When the stack by the garage keeps growing, one visit clears it.
Appliance Removal in Fairfax
Fairfax County bars refrigerators, freezers, dehumidifiers and air conditioners from regular trash because of the refrigerant inside, and county customers must book them as a separate Freon collection. We skip that step for you: the crew unhooks the unit, carries it out and sends it for proper recycling.
Details are on our Fairfax appliance removal page.


Furniture Removal in Fairfax
Couches, recliners, mattresses and dining sets come out without you lifting a thing. The county’s own drop-off sites charge residents for every large item, and the local ReStore turns down mattresses, bedding and stained or torn upholstery, so a lot of furniture has nowhere easy to go. We take it all and donate the pieces charities will accept.
See our Fairfax furniture removal page.
Cleanouts and Renovation Debris in Fairfax
We specialize in hoarder, garage and estate cleanouts. If you’ve been working on a renovation, we’ll haul away the construction debris, which the City of Fairfax will not collect when a contractor produced it.
You can also book a labor-only appointment for one or more of our uniformed staff to lift and move heavy items.


Commercial Junk Removal and Hauling
Need old furniture, computers or other equipment out of your office? Call 123JUNK to schedule one or more trucks for your office, retail business or warehouse. The county’s free electronics drop-off is closed to businesses, home-based businesses and nonprofits, so company e-waste needs another route, and we provide it.
Eco-Friendly Junk Removal in Fairfax
If your unwanted junk could be someone else’s treasure, we donate it. Usable items head to cfharity partners through our Donate, Recycle, Dispose™ process, including Habitat’s Chantilly ReStore on Walney Road, Alternative House and the Bargain Loft run by Herndon-Reston FISH.
Then we sort recyclables away from the trash. What’s left goes to the Reworld energy-from-waste plant on Furnace Road in Lorton, which serves Fairfax County, rather than to a landfill.

Questions We Hear From Fairfax Customers
How soon can you schedule a Fairfax pickup?
Most weeks we have openings within a day or two. Book online any time, or phone us and ask about tomorrow.
What items can you not take?
We take almost any non-hazardous item. Propane tanks, fire extinguishers, paint and chemicals count as household hazardous waste, so set them aside before your garage cleanout.
Do you donate items from Fairfax pickups?
Yes. Usable pieces go to local charities first; mattresses and worn upholstery that charities refuse are recycled or disposed of properly.
Can you work within my HOA or condo rules?
Yes. Many Fairfax County associations restrict curbside piles and dumpsters, so we load everything the day we arrive and leave nothing behind.
Do you take furniture from George Mason student move-outs?
Yes. Each spring the campus donation drive takes small furniture, but beds, couches and full apartment cleanouts are where we come in.
