Garage Cleanout in Everett, MA

Garages on small Everett lots
Many Everett houses have a one-car garage at the back of a narrow lot or a shared driveway with a neighbor. The pile is often a mix of lumber, bikes, tires, paint cans, a grill and boxes. Tires and latex paint are not accepted at Everett's Hazardous Waste Day. Oil-based paint, solvents and small propane tanks were, in 2025. We load wood, furniture, bikes, grills and boxes, and leave paint, solvents and tanks with you, since none of those can ride in a mixed load. Clear a path from the garage door to the street and tell us if a gate or a neighbor's car narrows the driveway.
Metal, appliances and what pays
Three scrap yards sit on Everett's Second Street: Scrap It, Second Street Iron & Metal and Mattuchio Scrap Metal. If you have pipe, a steel shelf or a rusted bike frame, calling them first may be worth it. A chest freezer or stove in the garage can leave with us for $119 to $149, which includes refrigerant recovery. A white goods sticker from City Hall is $15 if you prefer to wait for Wednesday pickup. Copper and aluminum usually bring more than steel, so keep them apart from the steel when you sort. Yards set their own prices and rules, so call each one before you load a car.
