Junk Removal in Federal Heights, CO
No job too small, and no games with the price. $149 covers the first 2 cubic yards, you see the exact number before anything is lifted, and nothing gets bolted on at the end. I am Darius, and I run it on my own out of Golden.

The City's Large Item Clean-Up
The Clean-Up Just Ran. Here Is What It Could Not Take.
Federal Heights runs its own Large Item Clean-Up event, and it is a good deal when it fits. In 2026 it ran the weeks of September 14 and September 21, with each neighborhood on its own day. Items had to be at the curb along the front of the property by 7am, bundled or packaged, because the crews make one pass. Furniture, doors, cabinets, lumber with the nails pulled, carpet and pad, bikes with the tires off, and bagged or bundled yard waste were all on the list.
If your pile went out and got picked up, great. But the program leaves real gaps, and most of the calls I get from Federal Heights fall into one of them.
Who and what the clean-up leaves out
- Apartment, condo and townhome areas. The event covers residential and manufactured neighborhoods only.
- Mattresses. They are on the city's not-eligible list.
- Tires, and concrete, brick, rock or asphalt. Also not eligible.
- Anything too big or heavy to lift safely. The city asks you to take it apart first.
- Every other week of the year. A couch that gives out in November has to wait for the next event.
What I can do about it
- Carry a couch or a mattress set down the apartment stairs. Up to 2 cubic yards is $149, and stairs are $25 a flight
- Take mattresses and box springs any week of the year
- Haul tires at $15 each, and concrete or brick at $25 a yard on top of the yard rate
- Load from your door, carport or patio, so nothing sits at the curb waiting for anyone
- Come on a day you pick, with an arrival window

Federal Heights, Street by Street
Fifteen Neighborhoods on One Small Map.
Federal Heights incorporated in 1940 and took its name from Federal Boulevard. It is small, a little under 2 square miles with about 14,400 people at the 2020 census, and most of the metro knows it as the home of Water World. What makes junk removal here different is the housing: a lot of it is apartments, condos, townhomes and manufactured home communities, not big suburban lots.
The city's own clean-up schedule names the neighborhoods, and I cover every one of them:
Old Town and the Neighborhoods
Old Town, Northborough, Homestead Heights, Hyland Park Heights, Monticello, Northmoor, Allbrick, Maura Villa and Mobile Landed Estates. Garages, carports and back fences that collect over the years.
Manufactured Home Communities
Countryside, Denver Cascade, Kimberly Hills, Parkside, Lamplighter and Holiday Hills. Tight streets and community rules about what can sit outside, so I load from your door or carport.
Apartments, Condos, Townhomes
The homes the clean-up skips. Usually one or two pieces and a flight or two of stairs. Tell me the building and the parking when you text.
Built for Small Jobs
A Small City Deserves Small-Job Pricing.
Up to 2 cubic yards is $149. Past that, each yard adds $75, and stairs, a carry over 100 feet or heavy material are the only extras. Every extra is written down before I start.
One Piece of Furniture
A couch, recliner, dresser or table leaving a small space without wrecking the doorframes. A couch usually runs $149 to $224. See furniture removal.
Mattresses and Box Springs
The item the clean-up will not take. A set is about 2 yards, so $149. More on mattress removal.
Move-Out Piles
Rentals along the Federal corridor that need to be empty by a deadline. I clear what the moving truck did not fit. How a move-out cleanout works.
Carport and Skirting Clutter
The pile beside the manufactured home, the old patio set, the boxes in the carport. Priced by the yard like everything else.
Branches and Old Fencing
Brush and branches priced by the load, and fence boards along the back line. No dirt or sod.
A Whole House
Bigger than one pickup? I do full residential cleanouts too, priced by the yard, in two trips if it needs them.
Every size is on the pricing page, and the junk removal cost guide explains what moves the number.
Real Reviews, Honest Labels
What Customers Said, Word for Word.
I do not have a written-up Federal Heights job yet. These two reviews are real, but neither says where the work was, so I am not presenting them as Federal Heights jobs. The nearest job I have written up is a garage in neighboring Westminster.

Straight Talk on Scheduling
I Drive Up From Golden, So Here Is the Honest Deal.
Federal Heights is about 26 minutes from my office at 18475 W Colfax Ave in Golden when traffic is moving. I serve the whole city, and where I can I book it alongside other north-side jobs in Westminster or Thornton. I will not promise a truck in twenty minutes. What I will promise: once we set a day, you get an arrival window, and I show up inside it. Hours: 7am to 7pm, Monday to Saturday, and Sunday by appointment.
The load mostly goes to an STS transfer station, North in Denver or South in Englewood, depending on the route. Good-condition items sometimes go to Goodwill or the Salvation Army, and big scrap-metal loads get recycled.

- Junk removal in Thornton to the east, about 28 minutes from the office
- Junk removal in Arvada 16 to 25 minutes from the office

FAQ
Federal Heights, Answered.
When is the Federal Heights Large Item Clean-Up?
In 2026 it ran the weeks of September 14 and September 21, with each neighborhood on its own day and items at the curb by 7am. The city posts the next dates on its Large Item Clean-Up page.
I live in an apartment, condo or townhome. Can I use the clean-up?
The city says the event covers residential and manufactured neighborhoods and excludes apartment, condo and townhome areas. For those homes, a hauler is the usual answer. One couch or a mattress set is $149 with me, and stairs are $25 a flight.
How do I get rid of a mattress in Federal Heights?
In Federal Heights, mattresses are on the Large Item Clean-Up's not-eligible list, so they need another route. A mattress and box spring is about 2 cubic yards, so $149 with me, carried out of the bedroom. More on mattress removal and the mattress disposal cost guide.
How can I get junk removed for free in Federal Heights?
The closest thing is the city's Large Item Clean-Up, a curbside collection for furniture, doors, cabinets, lumber, carpet and bundled yard waste, if you live in an eligible neighborhood and can get it to the curb by 7am on your day. Outside that week, or for items it excludes, you are looking at a drop-off or a hauler.
What is the cheapest way to get rid of yard waste?
If it can wait, bag or bundle it for the Large Item Clean-Up: the city takes bagged grass and weeds and bundled branches up to 4 feet long. If it cannot wait, I haul brush and branches priced by the load. I do not take dirt or sod.
Is it worth calling for just one or two items?
Yes. The $149 minimum covers the first 2 cubic yards, which fits one old couch, a mattress and box spring, or a few small items. You are not paying cleanout prices for a single-item job. If a cheaper ad has you wondering, here is what a $99 junk removal quote actually covers.
How much does junk removal cost in Federal Heights?
After the first 2 cubic yards at $149, each extra yard is $75. A couch usually comes to $149 to $224 and a packed 1-car garage to $449 to $599. Stairs, long carries and heavy material are the only extras, and each one is written down before I start. See the pricing page for the full table.
How far is Federal Heights from Golden?
About 26 minutes from my office in normal traffic, and I cover the whole city, including the manufactured home communities. There is no travel fee. Where I can, I book Federal Heights alongside other north-side jobs, and you get an arrival window when we set the day.
