Direct Answer
Junk Removal For Riverside Homes & Businesses
Yes, S&M Trash Junkers serves the city of Riverside and other cities across Riverside County. We remove unwanted furniture, appliances, household clutter, storage contents, yard debris, office items, bagged household trash and other non-hazardous junk. The service includes the lifting, loading and haul-away, so customers do not need to move everything to the curb first.
S&M Trash Junkers is based in Los Angeles and serves Riverside, the county seat and the largest city in Riverside County. Riverside mixes older neighborhoods near downtown, where houses have detached garages and alley access, with newer tracts on the edges of the city where the garage is big and the side yard is bigger. Where the truck can park and how far we carry changes from one to the other, which is why a photo of the pile and one of the route out matter before we quote.
Apartment turnovers near the university run on lease dates, so tell us the day the keys go back. A load that has to be out before a city bulky item appointment can be booked is exactly what a hauler is for.
For the clearest starting point, text photos and a short description to (442) 414-3483. Include the pickup location, where the items are sitting and anything that changes access. We confirm the price before work begins.

Riverside Pickups We Plan For
Every property is different. These are the kinds of Riverside jobs we plan around before the truck heads out.
Garages, alleys and carports
Years of boxes, tools and broken furniture, loaded from the alley side when that is the only access.
Whole-house and estate cleanouts
Rooms, garage and yard cleared in one plan, with keep piles set aside.
Yards and side lots
Patio furniture, branches and non-hazardous debris gathered around the property.
Before We Arrive
Prepare For Pickup
You do not need to carry the junk outside. A few details help us understand the volume, labor and access before we arrive.
- Send one wide photo of the pile and one of the way out to the street
- Say whether it is a house, an apartment or a storage unit, and which floor
- Mark anything that stays, especially in a shared garage or carport
- Point out concrete, brick, tile or other heavy material
The full pickup preparation checklist covers the rest.
Accepted Items
What We Take
Furniture, mattresses, appliances, boxes, garage contents, office furniture, yard debris and non-hazardous renovation debris. See everything we take, and what we can't.
Hazardous items go elsewhere
Paint, solvents, fuel, motor oil, pesticides, asbestos, ammunition and medical waste can't go in a junk load. Riverside County's household hazardous waste program lists permanent collection facilities, including the Agua Mansa facility in Riverside, for paint, motor oil, batteries and chemicals.

City Bulky Pickup Or A Hauler In Riverside?
If the City of Riverside collects your trash (its 311 Call Center can tell you who serves your address), Riverside Public Works runs a bulky item pickup by appointment: you call to schedule, and the items go at the curb, not in the street, by early morning on the appointment day. The City caps appointments per household; its page has the current rules. The City's Clean Up Riverside's Environment program also holds community drop-off days.
The appointment system works when the pile is small enough to carry to the curb and you can wait for the date. A hauler fits when the items are still in a second-floor apartment near campus, in a garage off an alley, or mixed with renovation debris, or when the keys go back before the next appointment. We carry from where it sits and confirm the price first.
Simple Pickup
How It Works
Call or text photos, your Riverside location and the access details. We confirm the price before anything is loaded, then carry it out, haul it away and sweep the work area. Our photo estimate guide shows what to send.
Local Service Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
What access details should I share for a Riverside pickup?
Tell us whether there is alley or driveway access, which floor the items are on, any gate code for a complex, and how far the items sit from where a truck can park.
Can I use the City of Riverside's bulky item pickup instead of a hauler?
If the City collects your trash and the items can wait at the curb for the appointment, yes: call Riverside Public Works to schedule it and set the items out the morning of the pickup, at the curb and not in the street. If the load is upstairs, behind a gate or off an alley, or has to go before the appointment, call or text us.
Where do Riverside residents drop off household hazardous waste?
At one of Riverside County's permanent household hazardous waste facilities; the county's page lists the Agua Mansa facility in Riverside among them, with current days and hours. Paint, motor oil and chemicals can't go in our junk load.
