How to choose a company in DeKalb

  • Get an itemized written estimate, not a phone ballpark; walk-throughs surface hidden volume (attics, garages, basements).
  • Ask how they handle donations and consignment — a good crew offsets your cost by rehoming or reselling usable items.
  • Understand what drives the price: total volume, stairs, heavy items, and DeKalb County landfill or transfer-station fees.
  • Pin down the timeline — smaller DeKalb homes are often one day; larger estates run two to three with donation runs.
  • Ask whether they do light cleaning and a broom-swept finish after the haul-out, or just removal.

Questions to ask before you hire

  • Is the quote all-in, or do dump fees and labor get added later?
  • Do you donate or consign usable items, and do I get receipts for donations?
  • Are you insured, and what happens if something is damaged?
  • How many crew members, and how long will the DeKalb job take?
  • Can you handle appliances, pianos, safes, or other heavy items?

Many DeKalb providers also handle estate planning attorneys, estate auctions and dumpster rental.
