Foreclosure & Eviction Cleanouts in York County, PA

Trash-outs for landlords, banks and asset managers: emptied, hauled and swept so the next crew can start.

Local & Owner-Operated
Owner-operated. William is personally on every job from start to finish.

A foreclosure cleanout or a post-eviction trash-out has one goal: get the property empty so the next step can happen, whether that's repairs, paint, a listing or a new tenant. Whatever got left behind, we load it and haul it. Couches, mattresses, bagged trash, a basement full of boxes, a garage nobody opened in years. William walks the property, confirms the price upfront, and our two-person crew does all the carrying. When we leave, it's swept out. We work for whoever holds the keys: landlords, property managers, banks and asset managers.

What's Included

  • Walkthrough and upfront price confirmed before work starts
  • Full trash-out: furniture, appliances, bagged trash and household debris
  • Two-person crew, fully insured, in a marked truck
  • Basements, attics, garages and sheds when they're in scope
  • Sweep-up of every area we clear
  • Coordination with property managers and realtors

What We Take

  • Abandoned furniture and mattresses
  • Bagged trash and kitchen leftovers
  • Refrigerators, stoves, washers and dryers
  • TVs and computers left behind
  • Clothing, toys and household clutter
  • Garage, basement and shed contents
  • Junk piled in the yard or behind the garage
  • Old carpet already pulled up for the turnover

How the job goes

  1. Step 1
    Send the address and the scope

    Text the property address, how we get in, and photos if you have them. Tell us the deadline and who signs off on the work.

  2. Step 2
    Walkthrough and price

    William walks the property and confirms the price before we start, based on how much truck space the contents take. If the owner or attorney has a hold-back policy, give it to us here.

  3. Step 3
    The trash-out

    We empty the unit or house, plus outbuildings and the yard if they're part of the scope.

  4. Step 4
    Swept for the next trade

    Every cleared room is swept so the repair, paint or cleaning crew can walk in and get to work.

Turnovers in York, Harrisburg and Lancaster

Much of the region's housing is rented. In York city, 56.3% of occupied homes are renter-occupied. In Harrisburg it's 63.4%, and in Lancaster city 51.4%.[1][2][3]

The housing stock is old and mostly attached. York city's median home was built in 1941, and only 22.1% of its housing units are single detached houses, so expect shared walls, narrow stairwells and tight basement steps on a lot of turnovers.[1]

What the last occupant left behind

Two things show up in vacated properties that can't simply go out with the trash.

  • Electronics: Pennsylvania bars TVs, computers, monitors and computer peripherals from municipal waste, and licensed haulers and transfer stations may not knowingly accept them for disposal. They have to be recycled.[4][5]
  • Cold appliances: under the federal Clean Air Act, refrigerant in fridges, freezers and window AC units has to be recovered before the unit is scrapped or landfilled.[6][7]

Abandoned belongings follow your policy

What happens to a former occupant's belongings is decided by the owner, the lender, the management company or their attorney, not by the cleanout crew. Hand us the written instructions for what gets held, what gets set aside and what goes, and we'll work to them.

If there's a refrigerator with food still in it, paint and chemicals in the basement, or anything else that looks hazardous, point it out on the walkthrough. Better to plan for it than to discover it with the truck half loaded.

What customers say about our foreclosure & eviction cleanouts

“William and team did an amazing job clearing out my parents house and garage. They were polite, efficient and professional. I would never have been able to prep for the sale of the house without Junk Lords help. Highly recommend.”
