Servicing All Portland Neighborhoods
Portland jobs vary a lot by neighborhood. In the Pearl District and close-in Northeast, we often work in condos and older apartment buildings where elevator access and parking restrictions slow the process down. We account for that when we give you a time window. In Southeast neighborhoods like Hawthorne, Division, and Sellwood-Moreland, residential cleanouts are the most common call. Detached garages packed with decades of accumulated furniture, yard tools, and appliances. Woodstock and Montavilla tend to have larger lots with outbuildings, which means more ground to cover but also more space for us to work efficiently.
Estate Cleanouts in Portland
Estate cleanouts are a significant part of our Portland work. Families clearing a parent’s home in Irvington or St. Johns often have a tight timeline and need someone reliable who will show up, quote fairly, and get it done in one visit. That’s what we do. We sort what we haul, send usable goods to local donation centers when we can, and recycle materials when they qualify. You don’t have to coordinate multiple trips or disposal runs. One call, one crew, done.
Pricing is per job — based on the items, their weight, and the scope of work. You get an exact quote on-site before we start. No disposal surcharges, no fuel fees, no surprises.

TESTIMONIALS
FROM OUR CUSTOMERS
"Martin is very professional, super responsive, and efficient. I looked into many local companies and Martin's customer service was well above the rest. He showed up on time, gave me a firm price before touching anything, and had the whole load cleared faster than I expected. This is who you call."
"Used Martin's to haul out a fridge, dishwasher, and old washer. He handled everything carefully, was upfront about the price before starting, and even mentioned which items could potentially be recycled. Genuinely one of the easiest service calls I have made. Would absolutely hire again."
"Quick, professional, and reasonably priced. Martin went above and beyond to work around my schedule. The garage was stacked floor to ceiling and it was completely cleared in under an hour. The price he quoted on-site was the price I paid. No games."
"We had a full estate cleanout after my mother passed and Martin handled it with a lot of care and respect. He was patient, communicated clearly, and did not rush us. Everything was handled in one visit. It was a hard day and he made it much easier."
"Had a shed and a hot tub that needed to come out. Martin's crew showed up on time and had both demolished and hauled off in about three hours. Fair price, no surprise charges, and they cleaned up after themselves. I will be calling them again for the deck next spring."
"I have used other junk haulers in Portland and Martin's is the only one that felt like dealing with an actual local business owner. He answered the phone himself, showed up when he said he would, and took the time to sort items before loading. A genuinely good experience from start to finish."
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a junk removal job take in Portland?
Most Portland pickups take 30 to 90 minutes, depending on volume and access. A single item is quick; a packed garage in Montavilla or Irvington runs closer to two hours. A full estate clearing is usually 4 to 8 hours. When you call, Martin gives you an honest time window based on what you describe, so you can plan your day around it.
Can you do same-day junk removal in Portland?
Same-day service is available Monday through Friday, 9am to 6pm. Call (503) 964-4886 in the morning and we can often confirm a same-day window. Neighborhoods like Hawthorne, Division, and the Pearl District are well within our regular daily routes, so morning call-ins frequently get afternoon slots. We'll be straight with you about availability rather than overpromise.
Are you locally owned or a franchise?
Locally owned. Martin Rebhahn has operated Martin's Junk Hauling and Recycling in Portland since 2018. This is not a franchise, and you're dealing with the actual business owner when you call. There's no call center, no dispatch layer between you and the person who shows up. Martin answers, quotes, and oversees the work. You're dealing with a local business owner, not a dispatch center.
What happens to my junk after you haul it?
We sort items after every job. Usable goods go to Portland-area donation centers when possible. Recyclable materials, including electronics and metal, are recycled where accepted. What can't be diverted goes to certified disposal facilities. We don't just dump everything in one load. The extra sorting step is part of how we operate.
Do you serve all Portland neighborhoods?
Yes. We cover NE, SE, NW, North, and inner East Portland, including Sellwood-Moreland, Woodstock, St. Johns, Irvington, and Montavilla. If you're closer to the edges of the metro or unsure whether your street falls in our range, just call and we'll confirm in under a minute. Portland is our primary market, so most addresses are a quick drive.
