Junk removal in Orleans, Massachusetts
NO SURPRISES.
This page is for hiring JUNKRUN in Orleans: prices, what we take, how booking works. For what the town itself does, see Orleans bulky item pickup rules, Leaf, brush and yard waste in Orleans, Massachusetts, Christmas tree disposal in Orleans, Massachusetts, Orleans Transfer Station.
How disposal works in Orleans
The Transfer Station is at 56 Lots Hollow Road and the town page gives Friday through Tuesday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. as the hours, with Wednesdays and Thursdays closed. The page lists no separate summer or winter schedule. The station phone is 508-240-3770.
The pages we read describe the Transfer Station as the town's disposal route and list no curbside trash pickup program. Households either take their own trash to the station or hire a private hauler. The sticker application says a Recycling Only sticker does not allow household trash, which is the cheaper sticker for people who already pay a private hauler.
Stickers are sold by the DPW Sticker Office at 40 Giddiah Hill Road and online. The town says 2026 stickers expire June 30, 2027.
Villages, rentals and seasonal homes
The town's visitor guide names the Village Center (downtown), Town Cove, East Orleans on the way to Nauset Beach, and South Orleans and Rock Harbor as the business districts. We serve all of them at the same flat prices, with no travel fee.
Orleans has a rule that matters for owners of rental homes: the town's rental registration page says all property rentals other than hotels, motels and inns must be registered before they can be rented. On the Transfer Station side, the fee schedule has its own Seasonal Renter category with a $195 vehicle sticker, so a tenant or a summer guest is not treated like a day visitor.
Our estate cleanout and move-out pages cover the Cape situations: closing a cottage in the fall, a Saturday changeover, an estate with decades in the attic.
What JUNKRUN charges in Orleans
A quarter trailer is $209, a half $319, three-quarters $409 and a full trailer $519, with a $159 minimum. Single items are priced on our main price list, for example a couch at $139 or a queen mattress at $109.
That is one visit, from the basement, garage, porch or shed, with no sticker and no sorting into station bins. The town's per-item fees at the Transfer Station are on the table below if you would rather drive it yourself.

What a pickup in Orleans looks like.
- Where
- Orleans is a Lower Cape Cod town in Barnstable County. The town's own visitor page calls it the commercial hub of the Lower Cape. JUNKRUN is based in Melrose and serves it at the same flat prices as every other town, with no travel fee.
- County and population
- Barnstable County. 6,307 residents (2020 U.S. Census (Census Bureau QuickFacts, Orleans town, Barnstable County, Massachusetts)).
- Neighborhoods
- Village Center (downtown), Town Cove, East Orleans, South Orleans, Rock Harbor
- Homes
- The town pages we read give no official breakdown of house types, so none is claimed here. What the town does publish: all property rentals other than hotels, motels and inns must be registered with the town, and the Transfer Station has a Seasonal Renter sticker category. Estate and rental turnovers are therefore part of how the town describes its own housing.
- Seasonal notes

- Access and parking
- Disposal is at the Transfer Station, 56 Lots Hollow Road: vehicle sticker required, per-piece fees for large items. The pages we read list no town curbside trash, bulky or yard waste collection. No published dumpster permit was found; building-permit debris goes through the Building Department's Debris Disposal Affidavit.
Landmarks: Nauset Beach (reached through East Orleans), Town Cove, Rock Harbor, Orleans Market Square.
