Junk Removal in Strathmore, Alberta

Junk Removal in Strathmore — Done Right, No Shortcuts

I'm TJ. I run a small junk removal truck out of Strathmore, and I've been hauling junk from this town long enough to know what folks here actually deal with. Strathmore isn't Calgary — it's a farming and oilfield town that's grown fast, and the junk problems here are different than what you see in the city. Old farm equipment, renovation debris from those newer homes in Lakeside, basement cleanouts from the older bungalows near the tracks — I see it all.

This page is about what junk removal looks like in Strathmore specifically. Not a generic service. Not a crew driving out from Calgary. Me and my truck, here in town.

What Strathmore Homes and Properties Actually Need Hauled

Strathmore has a mix of older homes (especially around Centre Street and the rail line) and newer subdivisions like Lakeside and Westmount. The older places often have decades of accumulated junk in basements, sheds, and garages — stuff the original owners left behind or that just never got dealt with. The newer builds generate construction offcuts, packaging waste, and landscaping debris.

I also haul from acreages just outside town limits — out toward Gleichen Road or along Highway 1. People on acreages tend to have scrap metal, old fencing, broken-down equipment, and the kind of junk that builds up when you've got space to let it pile.

Here's what I haul most in Strathmore:

• Furniture and appliances — couches, mattridges, fridges, stoves, washers, dryers
• Renovation debris — drywall, lumber, flooring, old cabinets, countertops
• Yard waste and fencing — branches, old fence panels, rotten deck boards, sod
• Scrap metal — old farm equipment parts, vehicle parts, steel posts, tin roofing
• General household junk — boxes, old toys, broken tools, accumulated basement stuff
• E-waste — old TVs, computers, monitors, electronics (I recycle these properly)

How the Job Works in Strathmore

I serve Strathmore and the immediate area — including Lakeside, Westmount, Ranchlands, and the acreages along Highway 1 and Range Road 240. I don't charge extra for coming to your house or property, and I don't have a minimum load.

Here's how it goes:

1. Call or text me at (825) 559-2766. Tell me what you've got and roughly how much. I'll give you a straight price over the phone — no surprise fees, no "we'll see when we get there."
2. I come to you. I'll pull up to your house, shop, or acreage. You show me the junk. I load it into my truck. You don't lift a finger.
3. I haul it away. I sort what can be recycled or donated and dispose of the rest properly. I don't dump stuff illegally and I don't cut corners.

I work alone, so there's no crew of strangers walking through your property. Just me, my truck, and a straightforward job done right.

Pricing — Honest and Local

Pricing depends on how much junk you have and what it is. I charge by the truckload, not by the pound. A partial load costs less than a full load. I don't tack on hidden fees for fuel or disposal — the price I quote is the price you pay.

Typical jobs in Strathmore:

• Small load (a few pieces of furniture, some boxes, yard waste) — around $150–$250
• Medium load (basement cleanout, renovation debris, a garage full of stuff) — around $300–$500
• Large load (full house cleanout, shop cleanout, acreage junk pile) — around $500–$800

If you're not sure, just call. I'll ask a few questions and give you a number.

What I Don't Haul

I don't take hazardous materials — paint, chemicals, propane tanks, asbestos, or anything like that. I can point you to the right place in Strathmore to dispose of those, but I can't take them myself. I also don't do portable toilet waste or medical waste.

Serving the Whole Strathmore Area

I cover all of Strathmore and the surrounding rural areas. That includes the newer subdivisions off Wheatland Trail, the older neighbourhoods around the downtown core, and the acreages that ring the town. If you're within about 20 minutes of Strathmore, I'll come to you.

Call Me Directly

No call centre. No dispatcher. No online booking system that ignores your message. Call or text me, TJ, at (825) 559-2766. I'll answer, ask what you've got, and get you a price. If I can't answer right away, leave a message and I'll call you back the same day.

Let's get that junk out of your way.
