Our sister company
Apex Exterior Services — Landscaping, hardscaping and exterior cleaning — same family, same towns.
ApexExteriorServicesNJ.com (opens in a new tab)Thanks for getting in touch. Your request is in and one of us will call you straight back to price the job and book a slot that suits you. Nothing is charged until you have agreed the number. If it is urgent, call us on (908) 944-3100.
Who we are
Apex Junk Removal works out of Bridgewater across Somerset and Middlesex County. Same crew, same trucks, same person answering the phone — and a price agreed in your driveway before anything gets loaded.
What we remove
If it is not on the list it is almost certainly still a yes — just ask. There are only a handful of things we are not allowed to touch, and those are listed further down.
How it works
Four steps, and no surprise in the middle of any of them.
Call, text a photo, or fill in the form. A photo of the pile is worth ten minutes of describing it, and it is usually enough for us to get you within range on the phone.
We turn up at the agreed window, look at the actual volume and the actual access, and give you one price for the whole job. That happens before anything is loaded, and it is free whether you go ahead or not.
If the price works, we start there and then in most cases. You do not lift anything and nothing needs to be at the curb — we carry it from wherever it is sitting.
The space gets swept before we leave. Then the load gets separated at our end: donation, metal recycling, e-waste, and only what is genuinely left over goes to the transfer station.
Sorted, not just dumped
If you need a donation receipt for tax purposes, ask before we load and we will get one back to you.
Where it goes
A truck that drives straight to the transfer station every time is the easy way to run this business. We sort the load instead, because most of what comes out of a garage still works.
Furniture in good condition, working appliances, tools, bikes and unopened household goods get set aside on the truck and routed to donation rather than dumped. Metal goes to a scrap recycler. Electronics go to an e-waste handler who is licensed to take them.
What is left — the genuinely broken, the soaked, the moldy — goes to the transfer station, because that is where it belongs. We are not going to claim a diversion rate we cannot show you.
Usable furniture, appliances, tools and household goods go to local donation partners.
Metal, appliances and electronics go to scrap and e-waste recyclers, not landfill.
What is genuinely finished goes to a licensed transfer station, with the fees paid.

Pricing
We quote on site, free, before anything is loaded. Here is what the number is actually made of, so you can sanity-check ours against anyone else's.
How much space it fills in the truck, measured as a fraction of the load — not by the item count. Ten light boxes cost less than one sectional.
Transfer stations charge us by the ton. Concrete, tile, soil and plaster are the heavy ones, and they price differently from an equivalent volume of furniture.
Fridges, mattresses, tires and electronics carry their own fees at the facility, because they have to be handled separately by law.
A third-floor walk-up, a long carry from a back yard, or a shed that has to be cut apart takes longer than a garage you can back up to.
What the price does not include is a surprise. The number we give you standing in your driveway is the number on the invoice, unless you add something to the pile — and then we tell you what it changes before we load it.
Reviews
Every review on our profile is from a real job in Central New Jersey. If we have cleared something for you, it genuinely helps us to hear about it.
Questions
It depends on how much space the load takes up in the truck, how heavy it is, and whether anything in it carries its own disposal fee — fridges, mattresses, tires and electronics all do. That is why we do not publish a price list. We come out, look at it, and give you one number for the whole job before anything is loaded, free, whether you go ahead or not.
For the estimate, ideally yes, so we are both looking at the same pile. After that, no — plenty of our work is done from a lockbox for landlords and out-of-state executors, and we send photos when it is finished.
Most jobs get booked within two or three days, and we hold slots each morning for same-day calls. Ring before 2pm and we will tell you straight away whether a truck is genuinely free, rather than promising and rescheduling you.
No, and please do not hurt yourself trying. We carry it from wherever it is sitting — the attic, the basement, the back yard, the third floor. The lifting is what you are paying for.
The load gets sorted rather than driven straight to a hole in the ground. Furniture in good condition, working appliances, tools and household goods go to donation. Metal goes to a scrap recycler and electronics go to a licensed e-waste handler. What is genuinely broken or soaked goes to the transfer station, with the fees paid.
Very little. Paint, stains, household chemicals and appliances with refrigerant in them all come with us — those are usually the reason a garage never gets cleared, because the town will not take them at the curb. The three we cannot handle are medical and biohazard waste, asbestos or anything suspected of containing it, and contaminated soil or debris. Each of those needs a licensed specialist, and we will point you at the right one.
Both. New Jersey requires an A901 solid waste transporter license to haul junk, and ours is NJDEP #0042968 — it is worth asking any hauler for theirs, because plenty of cheaper outfits do not hold one and the liability for where your waste ends up follows the property, not the truck. We are also fully insured, and we will send a certificate of insurance before we arrive if your property manager needs one on file.
We cover Central New Jersey, including Bridgewater, Raritan and Green Brook Township, and the towns in between. If you are just outside the list, call and ask — sometimes we are already going to be nearby that day.
Single items are fine and we do them every week. There is a minimum charge that covers the truck, the fuel and the disposal fee, and we will tell you what it is on the phone before you book.
Yes. We cut them down where they stand into pieces two people can carry, walk them out to the truck, and rake the pad clear of nails and screws afterwards. The truck does not need to get into the yard.
Free estimate, no obligation, anywhere in Central New Jersey. We price it in front of you and load it the same visit if it works for you.
