Junk Removal in Orange County, CA
EA Junk Removal has been hauling away the stuff Orange County homeowners and businesses don't want since 2018. We're family-owned, we answer our own phone, and we cover the whole county from one dispatch board. That means whether you're on the coast in Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Dana Point, or San Clemente, in the central core around Santa Ana, Anaheim, Orange, Tustin, Irvine, and Costa Mesa, up in north county through Fullerton, Brea, Yorba Linda, and Anaheim Hills, or out in the south county master-planned communities of Mission Viejo, Lake Forest, Rancho Santa Margarita, Ladera Ranch, and Aliso Viejo, you get the same crew, the same upfront price, and most of the time same-day or next-day service. One call to (949) 565-2609 and a truck is on the way.
We handle the full range of junk-removal work, not just a couch here and there. On the residential side that's garage cleanouts, full estate cleanouts, basement and attic clear-outs, backyard and shed teardowns, and the apartment and rental turnovers that landlords and property managers across Santa Ana and Costa Mesa call us for between tenants. On the commercial side we clear out offices, retail spaces, and warehouses, haul construction and remodel debris, and take down old cubicles and shelving. We pull appliances and e-waste, break down and remove hot tubs, and we do full hoarding cleanups with the patience and discretion those jobs need. If it's not hazardous and two people can carry it, odds are we take it.
Orange County isn't one kind of place, and that's exactly why local experience matters. The coastal cities mean tight beach-side streets and tricky parking, so we send the right-sized truck and we don't block your neighbors in. A huge share of the county lives behind HOA gates or in master-planned communities like Ladera Ranch and Rancho Santa Margarita, where we know to check in at the guard gate, follow the community's haul-out rules, and leave the driveway cleaner than we found it. The dense rental corridors in Santa Ana, Anaheim, and Costa Mesa mean stairs, narrow hallways, and tight turnaround windows, and the hillside lots up in Anaheim Hills and Yorba Linda mean long carries and steep driveways. We've done all of it, so none of it slows us down or surprises you with a fee.
We try hard not to just run everything to the landfill. Anything still usable gets donated to local charities and reuse centers, metal and appliances go to recyclers, e-waste is handled the right way, and what's left goes to permitted transfer stations, never dumped illegally. It keeps usable goods in the community, keeps our footprint down, and keeps you fully in the clear. As a family business that plans to be working these same Orange County neighborhoods for years, doing disposal responsibly isn't a marketing line for us, it's just how we'd want a company to treat our own street.
Pricing is flat and based on how much room your stuff takes up in the truck, not a vague hourly clock that runs while we work. A single item runs about $100 to $200. A typical garage cleanout lands in the $300 to $500 range. A full home or estate cleanout usually falls between $700 and $1,400 depending on volume. An apartment or condo turnover is generally $200 to $400. We confirm the price in person before we lift anything, so the number you hear is the number you pay, with the labor, the truck, the dump fees, and the cleanup all included.
Booking is simple. Call or text (949) 565-2609, tell us what you've got and where in Orange County you are, and we'll give you a window, usually same-day or next-day. We show up on time, give you a firm quote on the spot, and if you say go, we load it, sweep up, and you're done. No deposit, no surprise add-ons, no waiting around a four-hour window. Just a local family crew that does what it says and hauls it away.
We cover all of Orange County. Here's how our process works, the full list of items we take, and our Orange County cost guide.

What areas do you serve?
We cover all of Orange County from one dispatch. That includes the coast (Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Dana Point, San Clemente), the central cities (Santa Ana, Anaheim, Orange, Tustin, Irvine, Costa Mesa), north county (Fullerton, Brea, Yorba Linda, Anaheim Hills), and the south county master-planned communities (Mission Viejo, Lake Forest, Rancho Santa Margarita, Ladera Ranch, Aliso Viejo). If you're in OC, we serve you.
Do you offer same-day junk removal?
Most of the time, yes. Because we dispatch across the whole county, we can usually get a truck to you the same day or the next day. Call or text (949) 565-2609 early and we'll do our best to fit you in today.
Do you handle both residential and commercial jobs?
Both. On the residential side we do garage cleanouts, estate cleanouts, attic and basement clear-outs, and apartment and rental turnovers. On the commercial side we clear offices, retail and warehouse spaces, haul construction and remodel debris, and remove old furniture, cubicles, and shelving. Property managers and contractors across the county use us regularly.
What items do you take?
Just about anything non-hazardous that two people can carry. Furniture, mattresses, appliances, electronics and e-waste, hot tubs, yard and shed debris, construction and remodel debris, office furniture, and general household clutter. We can't take hazardous materials like wet paint, chemicals, or asbestos, but if you're unsure, just ask when you call.
How does your pricing work?
We charge by volume, meaning how much space your stuff fills in the truck, not by the hour. That keeps it predictable: you're not paying for how slow or fast the day goes. We assess the load in person, quote you a flat price before any work starts, and that number includes everything from the lifting to the dump fees.
Do you donate or recycle?
Yes. We sort the load and keep usable items out of the landfill wherever we can. Good furniture and household goods get donated to local charities, metal and appliances go to recyclers, e-waste is handled properly, and everything else goes to permitted transfer stations, never dumped illegally.
Do you do hoarding and estate cleanouts?
We do, and we handle them with patience and discretion. Full estate cleanouts after a move or a loss, and hoarding cleanups that take time and care, are some of our most common large jobs. We work at your pace, sort donations from trash, and leave the space clean and clear.
Do you remove appliances and electronics?
Yes. We haul refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers, stoves, water heaters, TVs, computers, and other electronics. Appliances get routed to recyclers and e-waste is disposed of the right way, so you don't have to figure out where any of it is supposed to go.
