What parts of St. Paul do you serve for junk pickup?

Do I need to be home for junk pickup in St. Paul?
No. Most St. Paul pickups are curbside or garage-staged: leave the items out or tell the crew where they are, and they send a completion photo by text when the job is done.
What is the minimum charge for junk pickup in St. Paul?
$85. A single small item — small sofa, kids mattress, mini fridge, small dresser — is $85 flat in St. Paul. Bundling more items into the same pickup is the cheapest way to use the minimum.
Can you pick up junk from my curb in St. Paul without an appointment visit?
Yes — there is no on-site estimate step. Text photos of the items with your St. Paul address, get a firm quote back, and book a calendar window. Stage items curbside or in the garage and the crew handles the rest.

Local pickup planning
What customers in St. Paul should know before booking.
Saint Paul’s city bulky-item program can help eligible residents with a limited number of curbside items, but private hauling is still useful for apartment buildings, indoor carry-out, construction debris, larger cleanouts, tight deadlines, and jobs that exceed municipal limits.
Alleys, curbs, multi-unit buildings, and stairs
Explain whether access is from an alley or street and whether the items are already outside. For apartments and older multi-level homes, show stair turns, porch steps, elevator access, loading rules, and the nearest legal parking position.
Compare city collection with full-service removal
Saint Paul’s municipal program is intended for eligible curbside bulky items. Dakota Valley provides the labor to carry material from inside, handle larger or mixed loads, and serve buildings or projects that fall outside the city program.
Know the city program exclusions
Construction debris and tires are not accepted through Saint Paul’s ordinary bulky-item program. Electronics, appliances, mattresses, fuels, batteries, and hazardous products also have specific preparation or recycling rules.
