Junk removal and movers in New Haven, CT
New Haven is a real drive from our Norwalk shop. Plan on 40 minutes on a good day and closer to an hour when I-95 is jammed, so we schedule New Haven jobs with that in mind. We move apartments and houses, clear out junk at move-out, haul renovation debris, assemble furniture and pick up barrels for overseas shipping. Most of our New Haven work is in East Rock, Wooster Square, Westville and Fair Haven.
Homes and buildings in New Haven
A lot of New Haven is two and three family houses, with an apartment on each floor and a back stairway that turns tight at every landing. East Rock and Edgewood are full of them. Downtown and around the train station you get larger apartment buildings with elevators, loading areas and building managers who want the move booked in advance. Westville and Morris Cove have more single family homes with driveways. Parking is the hard part in the dense blocks, especially in residential permit zones, so we plan where the truck goes before the day.
Junk removal in New Haven
New Haven homes served by city trash can book a curbside bulk appointment through Public Works. Bookings run by neighborhood. Qualifying homeowners get one free appointment a year, while tenants and extra appointments cost a fee. Not every property is eligible, so call Resident Services to check. Residents can also drop bulky waste at the transfer station at 260 Middletown Avenue with a New Haven ID, mornings Monday through Saturday. Construction debris costs extra there and gets weighed. When the next appointment is weeks away, we can clear it now.
Moving in and out of New Haven
New Haven moves pile up in late summer, when leases turn over and students and hospital staff come and go. We also move people from New Haven out to Hamden, West Haven, Milford and down toward Fairfield County. If your block has posted parking rules, check with the city's Transportation, Traffic and Parking department about holding space for the truck. Larger buildings often ask the moving company for a certificate of insurance and an elevator reservation. Give us the building's requirements when you book.

New Haven questions
I rent in New Haven. Is it worth paying for a city bulk appointment or should I hire you?
Tenants pay a fee for each city bulk appointment, and the date depends on when your neighborhood is scheduled. If you are moving out at the end of the month and need the furniture gone before your lease ends, we can usually work around your date. You get a free upfront quote first.
Can you move me out of a third floor apartment in East Rock?
Yes. Third floor walk-ups with narrow back stairs are some of the most common jobs we see in New Haven. We send enough crew for the stairs, wrap furniture and take doors or legs off when a piece will not make a turn. Tell us the floor and the stairs when you call.
Do you charge more for New Haven because of the drive?
The price depends on how much there is to move or haul and how much crew time the job takes, and the drive is part of that. We tell you the whole price before the job starts, and it does not change at the end. Call (475) 259-9687 for a free quote.
