Why Us

Why use Trash Can Willy's in Dover

We are a local, veteran-owned junk removal company, A+ rated by the Better Business Bureau and 17+ years in business. Here is what that means on a Dover job.

You name it we take it, and you only point

We proudly serve Dover for trash, junk and debris hauling. Junk removal, construction materials picked up, or the garage, basement or attic finally cleaned out: we can accommodate it, and we do all the work removing it from where it sits. Single items start at $35 and it runs up to a whole property. A shared stairwell in one of the mill buildings is ordinary work for us and it does not add to the bill.

Insured trucks, trained crews, and the largest trucks in New England

We operate fully insured trucks and train our teams to protect floors, walls and doorways, and the crew shows up ready to work and sweeps when we are done. Two or three trained personnel come in uniform and watch your corners, your carpets and your floors on the way out. We use the largest trucks in New England, and bigger trucks mean fewer trips and better value. You get a two-hour window and a call about 20 minutes ahead.

We take the furniture the Recycling Center will not

The city puts it flatly: no bulky items or trash are accepted at the Recycling Center on Mast Road. At the curb a Bulky Item Tag covers one item, which rules out a sleeper sofa and a chest freezer before you start. We take all of it in one visit and the disposal sits inside the price.

Serving Dover from our Rochester branch

Dover is run out of our Rochester yard, and those crews work the Seacoast, garage cleanouts in Dover included. Whenever possible we donate usable items and recycle materials to reduce landfill waste, which comes to up to 85% of what goes on the truck. What we can resell out of your load comes off your price.

Priced on the work, not the air in the truck

Most junk removal companies charge by how much truck space you use. Bricks or feathers, packed tight or full of air, you can pay the same simply because it takes up the same space. We price the actual job: weight, labor, difficulty and access. And our trucks are huge. Three of many competitors' trucks can fit inside one of ours, which means fewer trips to unload, less time spent dumping and lower costs we can pass on to our customers. Your price is approved before anything moves and doesn't change afterward. Plus, we beat any written quote.

Local. Veteran-owned. No franchise fees.

Steve built Trash Can Willy's on the same principles he learned in the military: show up when we say we will, honor our quote, communicate clearly and leave your property better than we found it. We're local, not a franchise. No call centers, corporate runaround or franchise fees built into your price. We're BBB A+ Accredited, licensed and insured, and a portion of every job supports Wounded Warrior Family Support. Fair pricing. Great communication. No stress. Just a job done right.

Great experience every time we use Trash Can Willy's. The guys showed up on time and were very polite and personable. They managed to pack 30 years of junk into one truck with no room to spare!

FAQ

Questions we get about junk removal in Dover

How much does junk removal in Dover cost?

Single items start at $35, and $40 comes off any job above that. Past that we price the job itself: what it weighs, the labor it takes, how difficult it is and how hard it is to get to. Anything we can resell, donate or recycle comes off that price, and we beat any written quote you already have in hand.

What do you take in Dover?

You name it, we take it. Furniture, appliances, electronics, household clutter, yard debris, construction debris, hot tubs, sheds, pianos and the whole contents of a basement, garage or attic. The rule of thumb is simple: if two or three strong guys can lift it, it goes on the truck. The short list we cannot take is hazardous: wet paint, gasoline and other fuels, solvents and propane tanks.

Do you recycle and donate?

Yes, up to 85 percent of what we haul. Usable furniture and household goods go to donation partners, metal goes to scrap and electronics go to a certified recycler. If something coming out of your house still has resale value we take a discount off your price for it, and sometimes we even buy your junk.

Do you do full house cleanouts in Dover?

Yes, and they are a large part of what we do. Estates, foreclosures, evictions, hoarding situations, move-outs and downsizing, plus the basement, attic or garage on its own. We are the professional experts on cleanouts, hot tubs, sheds and pianos. Where we can we clear the whole property in one visit, sweep it, and send photos when it is empty.

Can you get a sofa down a mill building staircase downtown?

Yes, and it is most of what we do in the center of Dover. We take the legs off and bring it down with two or three of us on it. Tell us the building when you book.

How soon can you get to Dover?

Same-day or next-day is often possible. Dover is served from our Rochester office, so it is a regular run for us rather than a special trip.

How do you quote a job?

Call or text 603-490-2177 with a description or a few photos and we give you a price range on the spot. That phone quote is our best guess, not a binding number. When the crew arrives they look at the job and confirm the exact price before any work starts. Once you approve it, it does not change. For big jobs and full cleanouts we come out for a free on-site estimate, Monday to Friday 9 to 5.

Do you beat other quotes?

Yes. Bring us any written estimate from another company and we beat it by up to 10%. And every week we draw one customer's completed job and refund it in full, so keep your receipt.

Do I need to be home?

Not if we can get to the stuff. Plenty of jobs are booked by phone, hauled while you're at work, and closed out with photos and a card payment. If access is tight or you want to point at things yourself, be there and we'll walk it with you.

When will you actually show up?

You get a two-hour arrival window and a courtesy call about 20 minutes out, so you're not sitting around all day. Most single-item pickups are done inside an hour of the truck arriving.

What won't you take?

Hazardous waste is the short list: wet paint or stain, gasoline and other flammable liquids loose in cans or drums, propane tanks, solvents, acids, antifreeze, motor oil, asbestos and medical waste. A mower, generator or snow blower with fuel or oil still in it is fine: we drain it as part of the job. Fully dried latex paint is fine. Everything else, if two people can lift it and it fits in the truck, we take it.

How do I pay, and how does the $40 off work?

Credit, debit, cash, or estate, certified and business checks. No personal checks. You get an emailed receipt before the truck leaves. Mention the coupon when you book any job and we take $40 off the quoted price, one per job.
