Garage cleanout in San Marcos, Texas

Tell us what stays and we load everything else; you do not move, take apart or carry anything to the curb. Metal and electronics go to recycling, items in good condition go to donation, and we sweep the floor once the load is gone. Below is what the official pages for San Marcos and Hays County say about paint, batteries and scrap metal, each with its source. See junk removal in San Marcos for the town as a whole.

San Marcos's bulky pickup and paint, batteries and scrap metal

Bulk Pick-Up does not list paint, batteries and scrap metal among the items it picks up, so ask the program's own page before you set any out.

"Jackie and Tanner helped me clear a half garage worth of spring cleaning stuff that was too big for our trash bin. They showed up right on time, gave me a quick estimate, and then were done loading everything within 45 minutes. I'll be calling them again anytime I need help with larger items. Highly recommended!"
