Junk Removal in Lexington, MA
(Without Upsetting the Neighbors)
McDumpsters hauls away furniture, appliances, and whole-house cleanouts in Lexington, MA. Single items start at $75 — our crew does the lifting, you point at what goes. Need to load it yourself? We rent dumpsters and handle light demolition too.
Most outfits treat Lexington like another stop on the route. A call center in another state takes your details, sells the lead, and a different crew shows up each time — if they show up.
We don't do that.
We are McDumpsters, based in Billerica, about 15 minutes up the Middlesex Turnpike. We know Lexington. We know the difference between an easy carry-out on Mass Ave and an estate cleanout up the narrow stairs of a colonial near the Battle Green.
Why Lexington is Different
Lexington isn't a one-size-fits-all town. You've got narrow colonial doorways, historic-district rules, and homes with fifty years of stuff in the attic.
We Do the Lifting
Junk removal means you point and we carry. The old sofa down the back stairs, the dead appliances out of a kitchen remodel, the boxes nobody's opened since the Reagan administration. Our crew handles the heavy end and the tight historic-home doorways without scuffing the trim.
We Donate Before We Dump
Plenty of what comes out of a Lexington home is still good. Usable furniture goes to a local charity, metal and electronics get recycled, and only what's truly done heads to the transfer station. Less of your old stuff ends up in a landfill.
Quiet, Tidy, Neighbor-Friendly
No giant orange bin parked on the lawn for three weeks. For most junk removal we're in and out the same visit. If you do want a dumpster, we place it to keep both your driveway and the historic district commission happy.
“Can't I Just Take It to Hartwell Ave?”
Sometimes, and we'll tell you when it's the cheaper move.
If you're a Lexington resident with a sticker, the Hartwell Ave facility is fine for yard waste and cardboard. But here's the catch:
- They mainly take yard waste and recycling.
- They won't take construction debris, drywall, or old furniture.
- And they certainly won't carry that basement junk up the bulkhead stairs for you.
For everything Hartwell Ave turns away — and the heavy lifting — you call us.

We Are Not a Broker
Search “junk removal Lexington” and you'll see a lot of ads. Most are call centers in another state selling your lead to whoever has a truck that day.
When you call (978) 375-2272, you're calling McDumpsters. We're the ones driving the truck, doing the lifting, and picking up the phone — and we'll make sure we don't trample your hydrangeas on the way out.
Permit Info for Lexington
Lexington requires a permit from the Town of Lexington DPW for dumpsters placed on public streets or town right-of-way. Private property placement does not require a permit. The historic district near Battle Green and Lexington Center may have additional placement and duration guidelines. We coordinate with homeowners to ensure full compliance with all town regulations.
Waste Regulations
Lexington follows Massachusetts DEP regulations and has its own robust recycling and waste management program. The town operates the Hartwell Avenue Composting Facility and recycling center. Hazardous materials, electronics, and refrigerant-containing appliances are prohibited. Lexington's many historic homes may contain lead paint and asbestos — proper testing and handling procedures are required before renovation of pre-1978 structures.
LEXINGTON JUNK REMOVAL FAQ
How much does junk removal cost in Lexington?
Junk removal in Lexington starts at $75 for a single item. A partial truck load runs $250-500, a full load $500-800. Estate and house cleanouts are $1,500-4,000 depending on the volume. We quote a flat price before we start — call (978) 375-2272.
What will you take away in Lexington?
Just about anything that isn't hazardous: couches, mattresses, appliances, tables, exercise equipment, hot tubs, and full estate, basement, or attic contents. Paint, chemicals, and propane we can't take — and pre-1978 homes near the Battle Green may have lead paint or asbestos that needs testing first. We'll point you the right way.
Do you offer same-day junk removal in Lexington?
Most days, yes. Lexington is about 10 miles from our Billerica base, so call (978) 375-2272 early and we can usually get a crew out the same afternoon across both zip codes — Lexington Center, East Lexington, Follen Heights, Five Fields, Turning Mill, and the rest.
Do you do estate cleanouts in Lexington's historic homes?
Yes — they're one of our most common Lexington jobs. We clear the whole place, sort as we go, donate what's usable, and recycle metal and electronics. Our crew is careful on colonial-era stairs and narrow doorways, and we leave the place clean for the next owner.
Is it cheaper to hire a junk removal crew or rent a dumpster in Lexington?
Depends on the job. If you can do the lifting and have a few days, a roll-off dumpster ($350-$400) is cheaper. If you'd rather not touch it, junk removal ($250-$800 per load) costs more but our crew does everything. For a single room or a few heavy items, junk removal is faster. We do both in Lexington, so call (978) 375-2272 and we'll tell you honestly which one fits.
Do you also rent dumpsters in Lexington?
We do. 15-yard dumpsters are $350 and 20-yard are $400, including delivery, pickup, and a 72-hour rental. Weight is billed at $0.20/lb on the actual dump ticket. Street placement needs a Lexington DPW permit and the historic district has placement rules — we help you sort both, or find a driveway spot that skips the permit.
