Junk Removal for Landlords & Property Managers in Massachusetts
Keith McDonald is the owner and founder of McDumpsters, a family-owned junk removal, demolition, and dumpster rental company in Billerica, MA. With 20+ years of experience in waste management and logistics across Middlesex County, Keith personally oversees every project and handles most customer calls himself.

When a tenant moves out and leaves behind furniture, trash, and personal belongings, landlords need the unit cleared fast. Every day a unit sits full of junk is a day without rental income. Whether you are dealing with a cooperative moveout, an eviction cleanout, or a hoarder situation, professional junk removal gets the unit rent-ready in hours instead of days. McDumpsters provides tenant cleanout services across Middlesex County starting at $300, with fast turnaround to minimize your vacancy time.
Tenant Cleanout Pricing
| Situation | Cost Range | Timeline |
|-----------|------------|----------|
| Light moveout (few items left behind) | $300 - $500 | Same day |
| Moderate cleanout (partial apartment) | $500 - $1,000 | Same day |
| Full unit cleanout (everything remains) | $1,000 - $2,500 | 1 day |
| Hoarder/severe situation | $2,500 - $5,000+ | 1-3 days |
Common Landlord Scenarios
Post-Move Cleanout
The tenant moved most of their stuff but left behind a couch, mattress, bags of clothes, and random junk. This is our most common landlord call — a partial truck load typically runs $300-$500 and we can usually come the same day.
Eviction Cleanout
After a legal eviction is complete and the tenant's property removal deadline has passed, everything remaining must be cleared. Massachusetts has specific rules about the timeline for removing a tenant's belongings after eviction — make sure you have followed the legal process before scheduling removal.
Abandoned Unit
A tenant left without notice and the unit is full of their belongings. Document everything with photos before removal for your records. Once the legal abandonment timeline has passed, call us to clear it out.
Unit Turnover
Between tenants, you may want to remove old appliances, worn carpet, damaged fixtures, and anything else that needs to go before renovations or new tenant move-in. We handle both junk removal and light demolition for unit turnovers.
