Bears Moving Co. hauls junk in Peachtree City — 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 Peachtree City loads include garage and basement cleanouts, old appliances, mattresses, and box springs, playsets, swing sets, sheds, and hot tubs taken apart on site, and whole-house and estate cleanouts before a sale. Typical Peachtree City jobs are garage and basement cleanouts, old appliances and mattresses, a playset or hot tub taken apart in the backyard, and full estate cleanouts before a house goes on the market.
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.
Truck space is the first thing we measure. 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.
The second factor is how heavy the load actually is. 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 Peachtree City 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.
Most Peachtree City jobs give us a driveway to back into and a garage door to work out of, which keeps the carry short; the work is inside, in a basement or an attic that has not been touched in years.
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. We sort on the truck: donation first, then metal and appliance recycling, then the landfill for what nobody can use. Nothing gets loaded until you have the price in hand and say go.
A Peachtree City garage or basement cleanout usually runs a half to a full truckload, and volume plus a few heavy or fee-carrying items decide the number.
We move regularly through Aberdeen Village, Kedron, Braelinn, Wilksmoor Village, and the corporate housing near Falcon Field. Our crews know which residential streets have cart-path crossings that affect truck staging, that Highway 74 northbound backs up at the airport during peak times, and which villages have HOA-imposed move windows.
About 45 min south of Atlanta via I-85 and Highway 74. Most Peachtree City jobs give us a driveway to back into and a garage door to work out of, which keeps the carry short; the work is inside, in a basement or an attic that has not been touched in years. The Peachtree City areas we get junk removal calls from most: Aberdeen Village, Kedron, Wilksmoor Village, and Braelinn.
Peachtree City is one of the most unique cities in metro Atlanta to move in. The whole city is built around a 100+ mile cart-path network, and every residential street has at least one path crossing or tunnel. Our crews stage trucks to avoid blocking path crossings (PCPD will ticket otherwise) and we plan loading positions in advance.
The four village centers (Aberdeen, Kedron, Braelinn, Wilksmoor) each have distinct housing stock — Aberdeen older 1980s, Kedron mid-1990s, Braelinn 2000s, Wilksmoor newest. Most homes are 3,000–4,500 sq ft with attached garages and standard driveways. The corporate-housing area near Falcon Field accommodates Pinewood Studios and Panasonic tenants.
We sort on the truck: donation first, then metal and appliance recycling, then the landfill for what nobody can use. 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. A Peachtree City garage or basement cleanout usually runs a half to a full truckload, and volume plus a few heavy or fee-carrying items decide the number.

Yes. Garage, basement, attic, estate, and rental-turnover cleanouts in Peachtree City, 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. A Peachtree City garage or basement cleanout usually runs a half to a full truckload, and volume plus a few heavy or fee-carrying items decide the number.
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 Peachtree City 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.
We sort on the truck: donation first, then metal and appliance recycling, then the landfill for what nobody can use. Ask for a donation receipt or a scale ticket when you book and we will send it after the job.
