Bears Moving Co. hauls junk in Hampton — garage, basement, and attic cleanouts, single-item pickups, old appliances and mattresses, post-renovation debris, rental turnovers, and full estate cleanouts. We load it, sweep up, and take it to donation, recycling, or the transfer station.
Pricing is not hourly: we quote from the characteristics of the job — how much of the truck the load fills, what it weighs, what is in it, how hard it is to reach, how far we drive, and what disposal costs — and you get that number on site before anything moves. Licensed GA HHG #9320 and fully insured.
Junk removal is a cleanout service, not a move. We show up with a truck and a crew, you point at what is going, and we do the carrying, loading, and sweeping. Nothing has to be dragged to the curb first and nothing has to be broken down ahead of time — that is our job.
Common Hampton loads include barn, shed, and outbuilding clear-outs, yard and storm debris piles, farm and property cleanouts after an estate, and construction and remodel debris hauled off acreage. Around Hampton we handle shed and barn clear-outs, yard and storm debris, remodel leftovers, and full property cleanouts where the load spans several structures.
We cannot take hazardous materials: paint and solvents, chemicals, motor oil and fuel, propane tanks, batteries, medical waste, or anything containing asbestos. Everything else — furniture, appliances, mattresses, electronics, yard waste, construction debris — is fair game.
Junk removal is not billed by the hour. Every job is quoted from the characteristics of the load: how much of the truck it fills, what it weighs, what is in it, how hard it is to get out, how far we drive, and what the disposal site charges to take it.
We start with volume, because that is what the truck can carry. We price by how much of the truck your load fills — a quarter, a half, three quarters, or a full truckload — and we quote that on site once we can see the pile, before anything gets loaded. A single-item pickup carries a small minimum because the truck and crew still have to make the trip.
Weight comes next. Dense material like concrete, brick, dirt, roofing shingles, tile, and plaster costs more than the same volume of furniture, because the transfer station charges by the ton rather than by the cubic yard. A half truckload of demolition rubble can weigh more than a full truckload of household goods.
Item type matters where disposal is regulated. Refrigerators, freezers, and window air conditioners carry a refrigerant recovery fee. Mattresses and box springs have their own disposal charge. Electronics and e-waste, tires, and treated construction debris each have handling costs we pass through at cost rather than marking up.
Labor and difficulty are the fourth factor. A pile already stacked in the driveway is the cheapest version of any Hampton job. Stairs, a long carry from the back of the house, a tight basement turn, or a hot tub, shed, playset, or swing set that has to be dismantled before it will fit through a door all add crew time to the quote.
Hampton properties tend to have long gravel drives, outbuildings, and piles that have been growing for a decade, so we plan truck placement and the number of trips before we start loading.
Location and travel are folded in as well: the drive to the property and the drive from the property to the right disposal or recycling facility. Tipping fees vary by county, so where the load ends up is part of what it costs to take it.
Finally, disposal and recycling. Clean wood, metal, and appliances get pulled for recycling, anything usable is donated, and the rest goes to the closest county transfer station. You see the number before we load, and it does not move unless the pile does.
Hampton pricing follows volume, tonnage, and travel to the nearest transfer station, with a second trip quoted up front when the pile calls for it.
We move regularly through Crystal Lake, the older Hampton residential core, and the newer subdivisions along Highway 20 and Highway 81. Our crews know that major Atlanta Motor Speedway weekends back up I-75 and we shift Hampton starts accordingly.
About 45 min south of Atlanta via I-75. Hampton properties tend to have long gravel drives, outbuildings, and piles that have been growing for a decade, so we plan truck placement and the number of trips before we start loading. The Hampton areas we get junk removal calls from most: Hampton core, Atlanta Motor Speedway area, and Crystal Lake.
Hampton is suburban-to-rural with most homes built between 1990 and 2015. Standard logistics on most bookings, but the wrinkle is the Atlanta Motor Speedway — major race weekends back up I-75 and the surrounding state highways. We check the Speedway calendar at scheduling and adjust start times. Crystal Lake and the older Hampton core have a mix of newer subdivisions and 1980s split-levels.
Clean wood, metal, and appliances get pulled for recycling, anything usable is donated, and the rest goes to the closest county transfer station. Sorting is part of the job, not an upsell: anything a donation center will accept goes there, metal and appliances go to a scrapper, electronics go to a certified e-waste recycler, and the landfill is the last stop rather than the first.
If you want proof of where something went — common on estate and office cleanouts — ask when you book and we will send the donation receipt or the scale ticket from the transfer station.
A single-item pickup is its own kind of job: one sofa, one mattress, one refrigerator, one treadmill. Those carry a small minimum because the truck still has to make the trip, and they are usually done in under half an hour once we are on site.
A whole-house or estate cleanout is the other end of the range. Those are priced by total volume across the day, sometimes across more than one trip, and we walk the property with you first so the number is settled before we start. Hampton pricing follows volume, tonnage, and travel to the nearest transfer station, with a second trip quoted up front when the pile calls for it.

Yes. Garage, basement, attic, estate, and rental-turnover cleanouts in Hampton, plus single-item pickups and construction debris. We load it, sweep the area, and take it to donation, recycling, or the transfer station.
It is quoted by the job, not by the hour. Truck volume is the main factor — a quarter, half, three-quarter, or full load — with weight, item type, difficulty of removal, travel, and disposal fees layered on. Hampton pricing follows volume, tonnage, and travel to the nearest transfer station, with a second trip quoted up front when the pile calls for it.
You get the number on site before we load anything.
Because the cost is driven by what happens after the truck leaves. Landfill tipping fees are charged by the ton, refrigerant appliances and mattresses carry their own disposal fees, and recycling and donation each have their own logistics. Pricing by the load reflects those real costs; pricing by the hour would not.
No. We do the carrying from wherever the items are — basement, attic, backyard, second floor. Curbside piles are cheaper only because they are faster to load, but they are never required.
We cannot take hazardous materials: paint and solvents, chemicals, motor oil and fuel, propane tanks, batteries, medical waste, or anything containing asbestos. Everything else — furniture, appliances, mattresses, electronics, yard waste, construction debris — is fair game.
Yes. Dismantling is common on Hampton jobs and is quoted as part of the labor and difficulty portion of the price, so you see it in the number up front rather than as a surprise line afterward.
Clean wood, metal, and appliances get pulled for recycling, anything usable is donated, and the rest goes to the closest county transfer station. Ask for a donation receipt or a scale ticket when you book and we will send it after the job.
