Moving & Storage Cleanouts
Moving Cleanouts in Bakersfield — Move Less, Pay Less
Updated June 2026The cheapest thing to move is the thing you don't. We haul the give-up pile before the movers quote you, empty the storage unit you keep paying for, and clear whatever the garage sale didn't.
Why purge before you move?
Moving companies price by weight and cubic feet. That spare bedroom set you've been meaning to deal with might cost more to move than it's worth. One flat-quote visit from us before the movers' survey shrinks the truck, the bill, and the unpacking — and the good stuff gets donated locally with a receipt instead of riding 300 miles to be donated there.
Storage unit cleanouts
That $180-a-month unit off Rosedale Hwy adds up to real money every year. Meet us at the facility, pull what you're keeping, and we clear and sweep the rest in one visit so you can hand the lock back the same day. Works the same at facilities in Oildale, Shafter, and Taft.
Common moving-week jobs
- Pre-move purges — whole-house declutter before the survey.
- Garage-sale leftovers — Sunday 4pm, nothing sold, we take it Monday.
- Left-behind cleanouts — sellers' leftovers cleared before the buyers arrive, common on new builds out in Rosedale and Tehachapi.
- Donation runs — a full load straight to Kern County charities, receipt to your inbox.
Bigger transitions deserve more care: downsizing a parent's longtime home is really an estate cleanout, a week-long whole-house clearout may be cheaper with a $475 dumpster, and one heavy item is plain junk removal.
Moving cleanout questions
Should I purge before or after the movers quote me?
Before, every time. Movers charge by weight and volume, so every couch and box we haul first is money off the moving bill. Most families purge a week or two before the moving company's survey.
Can you empty a storage unit so I can stop paying rent on it?
Yes — storage unit cleanouts are usually one visit. Meet us there, point at what you're keeping, and we clear, sweep, and have it ready to hand back to the facility the same day.
What if the buyers move in before everything is out?
Call us — leftover-after-closing jobs are common and fast. We can usually clear what got left behind the same day or next, with photos for both sides.

"Christian and Allen were amazing. They came out, took a look at the item being removed (soa) and gave an honest appraisal. Even though a light rain had started, it did not deter them and they were positive and approachable through their process. They left the area in great condition, cleaning everything up and at no time did the weather or task slow them down or begrudge them. I know in the fut…"

"Chris and Allen exceeded our expectations today. They communicated their expected arrival time and let us know when they were en route. They quickly got to work and although the job was bigger than anticipated they had a great attitude and worked hard to help us accomplish our goal of consolidating 2 large storage units down to 1. They took a load to be donated to Habitat for Humanity and anoth…"
