Move-out junk removal in Lynn, MA

What to expect when a Lynn unit is turned over

Lynn's first-of-the-month moves bunch up on the same days, and the curb fills with sofas, bed frames and bags. Under city rules, trash must be bagged and in the 64-gallon cart or purple overflow bags ($3 each, $15 for five), set out between 5 p.m. the day before and 7 a.m. Items for collection cannot be placed on the ground, so loose furniture left on the sidewalk is not collected.

For tenants, the safe habit is to book the pickup before the key return and leave only what a crew can reach: items inside the unit, not in a shared hallway.

Stairs, landlords and shared buildings

In a triple-decker the crew works through shared stairs and sometimes a shared porch. Tell us which floor you are on, whether there is an elevator (rare), and whether the landlord needs notice. We do not block entrances and we sweep the area after loading.

If the landlord owns the items, such as a stove or a basement fridge, get a text confirming they should go. Appliances run $79 for a small one up to $149 for a large one, and the load price covers whatever else is in the pile.

What the city drop-offs will and will not take

If you want to haul it yourself, the DPW at 250 Commercial St takes mattresses ($35), TVs and monitors ($25) and propane tanks ($5), weekdays only, for Lynn residents with a license. Bulky Item Days at 247 Commercial St are free but only on posted Saturdays and refuse wood and construction material.

Clothing and household goods can go to the Salvation Army at 10 Munroe St. Everything else, including broken furniture and bags, needs a hauler.

The drop-offs close by early afternoon, which rarely works on moving day itself.

Move-out checklist for a Lynn apartment

  • Book the pickup two to three days before the key handoff.
  • List mattresses and TVs separately; they have their own city rules and recycling fees.
  • Separate what the landlord owns from what is yours.
  • Empty drawers and unplug appliances 24 hours ahead.
  • Tell us the floor and whether stairs are shared.
  • Leave bagged trash in the cart, not with the pickup pile.
  • Take a photo of the empty unit for your deposit records.
  • Pull items to the first floor only if you can do it safely.
