Attic packed to the rafters?
We do the climbing.
Old furniture, boxes of clothes, holiday decorations, and stored junk you haven't touched in years — Utica Junk Removal clears it straight out of the attic. You stay safely downstairs while our crew handles the stairs, ladders, and low clearance, then we sweep up before we leave. Small attics from $150. Owner Ryan Morin, USDOT 4535667.
You stay down. We bring it down.
Everything you need to know up front.
Clearing the attic is one of the most common calls we get for junk removal in Utica, NY — and the one homeowners least want to do themselves. Here's how we handle it.
Whatever's been up there for years.
Attics collect the stuff nobody wants to deal with — and the access is exactly why. Our crew climbs up, carries it down, and protects your stairs and walls with drop cloths on the way. No item is too awkward or too heavy.
Clearing the whole house, not just the attic? An attic cleanout pairs naturally with our house clean out services and basement clean outs — same crew, same flat-rate pricing, top to bottom in one visit.

Straight out of the attic.
Packed attics, stored clutter, and the crews who carry it all down — recent jobs around Utica and Oneida County.




Priced by the attic, not by the hour.
Attic jobs are priced on how full the space is and how much we haul away. Every quote includes the removal, responsible disposal, and the post-job sweep. We give a firm price before we climb up.
A quick clear-out of seasonal storage or a handful of bulky items you can't get down yourself.
The most common attic job — a mix of furniture, boxes, and stored junk that's built up over time.
A completely full attic, often from a previous owner or decades in the same home, cleared to the floor.
From first call to a clear attic — usually same day.
No need to haul anything down ahead of time, and you never set foot on the ladder. Here is the whole process.
Out of your attic, not just to a landfill.
A lot of what comes out of an attic is still usable. We sort every load before final disposal and route it in three directions.
Donations
Furniture in good condition, household goods, and clothing route to:
- Goodwill
- Salvation Army
- Local Utica-area thrift & charity partners
- Donation receipts on request
Recycling
Materials with regulated recovery routes:
- Scrap metal & appliances
- Old TVs, computers, monitors — certified e-waste recycling
- Compliant with New York State electronic waste law
- Appliances with refrigerant — EPA-certified recovery
Responsible disposal
What is left after donation and recycling:
- Routed to the proper Oneida County transfer station
- Old insulation and debris handled appropriately
- Typically only 30 to 50% of a load ends up here
- No illegal dumping, ever
Often cleared in the same visit.

The questions Utica homeowners ask first.
Read first, then call. If your question is not here, call Ryan directly at 315-509-3762.
Do I have to bring items down before you arrive?
No. We remove everything directly from the attic — even from tight or hard-to-reach areas. You stay safely downstairs while our crew handles all the lifting, stairs, and hauling.
What if my attic doesn't have stairs?
We can handle low-clearance or ladder-only access — our team is trained for safe removals in all conditions, including pull-down ladders, scuttle hatches, and walk-up attics.
Can you remove insulation or construction debris?
Yes, we can remove small amounts of old insulation, drywall, and debris. For major remediation we'll coordinate with a specialist, but for a typical attic cleanout we take the leftover materials along with everything else.
Do you clean after hauling?
Absolutely — we sweep and tidy up so your attic is clear and ready to use, whether you're reclaiming the storage space, finishing the attic, or prepping the house for sale.
How soon can you schedule attic junk removal?
We often offer same-day or next-day appointments in Utica, Rome, and New Hartford. Call 315-509-3762 in the morning and we can frequently have a crew out the same afternoon.
Can you take heavy or oversized items from the attic?
Yes. Old furniture, dressers, and bulky stored items come down the same day. If you uncover old workout gear, a treadmill, or other equipment during the cleanout, we can haul that too.
How much does attic junk removal cost in Utica?
Small attic clear-outs start around $150, and larger packed attics typically run $300 to $500. Every quote includes removal, responsible disposal, and a post-job sweep — no hidden fees. We give a firm flat-rate price before we start.
Are you insured?
Yes. Utica Junk Removal carries commercial general liability and commercial auto insurance and is USDOT registered #4535667. Our crew is trained for the steep stairs, low ceilings, and unstable flooring that attics often have, which keeps your home and our team safe.
One call. We climb up and clear it out.
Owner Ryan Morin will walk you through scope, price, and scheduling — and give you a flat-rate quote that includes the haul, disposal, and the sweep. Same-day and next-day attic cleanouts in Utica whenever the schedule allows.
