Junk Hauling & Removal San Diego
The last hurdle of any move is the stuff that is not coming with you. Gorilla Movers hauls it: move-out cleanouts, donation runs, e-waste, and the couch nobody wants, handled by the same uniformed crews that run our moves.
Gorilla Movers hauls away what is not coming with you: move-out cleanouts, donation runs, e-waste, and the couch nobody wants, handled by the same uniformed crews that run our moves rather than a stranger with a pickup. We take furniture, appliances, household goods, and general clutter, and we are straight about what we cannot take, which includes hazardous materials, paint, and chemicals. Donations are delivered to real charities rather than quietly landfilled. Call 619-600-5000.
Move-out cleanouts across San Diego
When a lease ends or a sale closes, the property has to be empty, not almost empty. We clear apartments, houses, garages, attics, and storage units down to broom-ready, so your final walkthrough or deposit inspection is not held hostage by a futon and six bags of miscellaneous.
The most efficient version is combining hauling with your move: our crew loads what is coming with you, then clears what is not, in one visit. Estate cleanouts and downsizing projects get the same treatment, with patience for keep-or-toss decisions made in real time.
Eviction cleanouts are a different job with the same trucks. There the contents are not simply junk: California law gives a former tenant a reclaim period, so personal property has to be inventoried and held rather than hauled, and only obvious trash goes to the landfill.
Eviction cleanouts for property managers
Donation runs and responsible disposal
We are movers first, so the default for usable furniture and household goods is a donation run to local San Diego charities, with a receipt when the center provides one. Metal, cardboard, and appliances are routed to recycling where possible, and the landfill is the last resort, not the plan.
Because our crews work inside occupied homes every day, hauling with us does not look like a demolition job. Floors get protected, walls stay unscuffed, and items leave your home the same careful way your furniture does on a move.
What we take, and what we cannot

“Gorilla movers did a fantastic job moving my mother in Oceanside. Raul was incredible. From the moment he arrived, he was very strategic in how he would complete the job. I had doubts with all of the stuff we had but trusted his knowledge and experience and he exceeded our expectations! They take care of your items, asked a lot of questions and consistently checked in on if there was anything else they could help with. Raul, not sure if we could have done this move without you!! Thank you so much and than you Gorilla movers!! -Jackie, Marty, and Liz”
