How Fast Can Junk Removal Be Scheduled—Same Day or Next Day?

One of the most common questions we get at Ditch It Junk Removal is:

“How fast can junk removal be scheduled—same day or next day?”

The honest answer?
👉 Most of the time, we can remove your junk the same day you call.

In fact, about 90% of our jobs are same-day service. We do our best to always have a truck and crew ready so we can help our community when they need it most.

Same-Day Junk Removal: When It Works Best

We offer 100% same-day junk removal, especially for:

  • Single-item pickups (mattresses, fridges, couches)

  • Small loads

  • Curbside pickups

  • Garage cleanouts

These jobs are quick and efficient — often just a few minutes — which allows us to help multiple customers in one day.

Best Time to Call for Same-Day Service

The earlier in the morning, the better your chances. That said, we’ve also helped plenty of customers who called later in the afternoon and still got service that evening.

If we can make it happen, we will.

When Next-Day Scheduling Makes More Sense

While most jobs are same-day, there are times when we schedule out a day or two:

  • Full house cleanouts

  • Hoarder homes

  • Large commercial jobs

  • Multiple truckloads

These jobs take more planning, more crew members, and more time — so we make sure they’re done right, not rushed.

What Affects Scheduling Speed?

The two biggest factors are:

1. Location

If a job is 45–60 minutes away, travel time matters.

2. Job Size

A single mattress takes minutes.
A three-truck cleanout takes hours.

We always try to balance efficiency with quality service.

Real Emergency Example (True Story)

We get emergency calls all the time — especially from realtors.

One evening, a realtor called needing a garage cleaned out before listing photos the next morning. It was already Wednesday night. The property was 45 minutes away.

We loaded up, drove out, cleared the garage, and the clients walked into a clean house Thursday morning.

That’s the kind of service we take pride in.

Realtors & Landlords: We’ve Got Your Back

We help:

  • Realtors every week

  • Landlords after tenant move-outs

  • Property managers with tight deadlines

Let’s be honest — when people move, they always leave stuff behind.

We’re here to handle it fast.

No Extra Fees for Same-Day Service

One thing we’re proud of:

👉 We do NOT charge extra for same-day or emergency service.

It’s just part of how we serve our community.

How You Can Get Faster Service

If you need junk gone ASAP, here are insider tips:

  • Call or text early in the day

  • Make items easy to access

  • Help load if you’re able

  • Pile items in the garage or curbside if possible

The easier it is to grab, the faster we can help you.

Final Thoughts

At Ditch It Junk Removal, speed matters — but so does doing the job right.

Whether it’s:

  • A last-minute realtor emergency

  • A landlord turnover

  • Or just one mattress you want gone today

We’ll always try to make it happen — same day if possible, next day if needed.

Customer service is what we thrive on, and helping people in real time is what we love most.
