1. One-paragraph summary
JunkRabbit Riverside is a junk removal service for the Inland Empire, built for slab-built homes whose junk lives in the garage, City bulky programs that refuse fridges and electronics, and a renter-heavy UCR and downtown core. Wood Streets and Arlington family homes, Orangecrest and Eastvale HOA tracts, UCR and Canyon Crest apartments, and large lots in Norco and Woodcrest all get the same flat per-item price, carried out from inside. Customers upload a photo or pick items and see the total before booking, with no call needed. Vetted, insured local haulers work 7 days a week from 8am to midnight, with same-day pickup when booked by 4 PM. A standard sofa is $126, a standard refrigerator $164 and a quarter truck $241.
2. What JunkRabbit is built for in Riverside
Garages, not basements
Inland Empire homes are slab-built, so decades of storage end up in two- and three-car garages and backyard sheds, priced by truck share from $241 to $732. See garage cleanout cost in Riverside.
What the City won't take
The City of Riverside's bulky-item program excludes refrigerators, freezers, A/C units, TVs and unwrapped mattresses. A standard fridge is $164. See 5 things Riverside bulk pickup won't take.
UCR move-out
Leases near UC Riverside turn over in mid-June, when Canyon Crest and University Avenue apartments empty at once. A twin mattress is $82. See UCR move-out junk removal.
Horse properties and large lots
Norco, Woodcrest and Jurupa Valley properties hold barns, tack rooms, old fencing and sheds; a small disassembled shed is $186. See horse property cleanouts.

6. How a pickup works
- See the price. Pick items or upload a photo at riverside.getjunkrabbit.com. The total appears on screen, with no call and no phone number needed to see it.
- Book. Choose an arrival window, any day 8am to midnight, and add a card. Same-day is available if booked by 4 PM.
- (If needed) COI. Add the managing agent at checkout; the certificate goes out within 1 hour.
- Pickup. A vetted, insured local hauler comes inside, takes items from any floor, disassembles if needed and carries everything out. You get text updates on the day.
- Price check. If there are extra items that weren't in the booking, the crew shows the updated price and waits for your approval before loading them.
- Disposal. We try to donate usable items when local charities accept them and recycle whatever we can; refrigerants are recovered from fridges and AC units.
7. vs City of Riverside bulky-item program
The City of Riverside gives each address two bulky-item appointments a year, with up to five items per appointment; three bags of 20 pounds or less count as one item. Items must be at the curb by 5:30 am on the scheduled day and not set out more than 24 hours before. The program excludes TVs, computers and other e-waste; refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners; mattresses that are not fully wrapped or bagged; tires and auto parts; construction debris such as wood, drywall, tile and concrete; and household hazardous waste. Neighboring cities differ: Moreno Valley's Waste Management program allows up to four bulky or e-waste pickups a month, and Ontario allows four a year for single-family homes.
If you have an appointment left and five or fewer accepted items you can carry to the curb, use the City program. JunkRabbit is for everything else: excluded items, anything still inside or upstairs, apartments, a third pickup in the same year, and jobs that need to go today. See Inland Empire bulky pickup rules by city.
8. vs national operators
National franchises such as 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King typically quote by truck volume and confirm the final price once the crew sees the job. JunkRabbit publishes a flat price for each item online, so the total is known before booking, and the job is done by a vetted, insured local hauler. There is no stairs fee and no same-day surcharge. See JunkRabbit vs 1-800-GOT-JUNK in Riverside for a side-by-side.
