1-800 RID-OF-IT provides Toronto large item pickup for residential, commercial and job site projects. Our team removes oversized garbage, bulky furniture, appliances and renovation leftovers from wherever they sit. We complete all lifting and loading by hand, for items the crew can safely handle.
Waiting for garbage day means another week of clutter in your driveway, garage or hallway. Book a large item pickup appointment and clear it on your schedule.

Large item and oversized garbage pickup in Toronto
Some items are too big, too heavy or too awkward for a bin. Our garbage removal service covers them, along with jobs that would take many trips in a car. We remove large items from basements, garages, backyards, upper floors, condo units and commercial spaces. The crew confirms the price on site before starting.
What counts as a large item?
A large item is anything that does not fit in your bin or is too heavy to lift safely. Common examples we pick up:
Small hot tub removal appointments are handled case by case, depending on size, weight and installation. See hot tub removal. For the full list, see what we pick up.

Check your City collection schedule and the City’s Waste Wizard to see where a specific item goes. The City’s oversized items page has the current rules. Our service fits when the item is inside, too heavy to move or needs to go before garbage day.
Heavy debris and yard waste
Heavy debris removal for dirt, sand, gravel and similar materials is available in limited quantities, based on weight and volume. Describe the material when you book so we can assess the load.
For yard waste, bag it and prepare it before your pickup appointment. Organize branches, twigs and trunk sections into a single pile for collection. See yard waste removal.
Large scale and commercial removal projects
Contractors, property managers, businesses and community organizers book us for high volume removal projects. Common appointments include:
- Renovation leftovers from residential and retail units
- Tenant turnovers and property cleanups
- Warehouse and storage room cleanouts
- Office furniture and equipment
- Community and city level event cleanups
Larger loads cost less per cubic yard. See multi load discounts, construction waste removal, commercial junk removal and event cleanup services.
Same day large item pickup
Same day junk removal in Toronto is available when the schedule allows. Call early in the day for a better chance at a same day appointment. You get a two hour window and a call about 30 minutes ahead.
What large item removal costs
We price by truck space, from a minimum load to a full load. Our trucks measure 10 x 8 x 6 feet, or 17.8 cubic yards. A “half load” on a smaller truck holds less, so compare truck sizes when you compare quotes. See our junk removal pricing and truck sizes.
