Junk Removal in Ukrainian Village, Chicago
606 Junk is a family-owned, locally-operated junk removal company based in the 60622 ZIP code. Ukrainian Village isn't a market we serve from across the city. It's our backyard.
Fast, Local & Affordable
Ukrainian Village is one of Chicago's most tightly-knit West Side neighborhoods, a compact grid of century-old two-flats, greystones, and coach houses packed between Chicago Avenue to the north and 16th Street to the south. It's beautiful, historic, and full of character. It's also full of basements. And garages. And attics stuffed with 30 years of accumulated furniture, broken appliances, and everything a rotating cast of renters left behind.
If you're dealing with that kind of pile-up—or you're a landlord who just turned over a unit and needs it cleared fast—606 Junk is your crew.
Call 773-412-4902Why Ukrainian Village Residents Call 606 Junk
There are national chains in this business: College Hunks, 1-800-GOT-JUNK, LoadUp. They'll get the job done, eventually, through a call center, with a three-hour arrival window, at franchise-padded prices. That's not how we work.
We Know the 60622 Housing Stock
Older Chicago buildings—the kind that line Oakley Boulevard, Winchester Avenue, and the streets around St. Nicholas Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral—present specific logistical challenges. Low-clearance coach houses. Narrow gangways. Basement staircases that weren't designed with a sectional sofa in mind. Our crew has navigated all of it. We bring the right equipment and the right approach for tight urban spaces that bigger operations fumble with.
Same-Day Availability
We know that "same-day service" is a phrase a lot of companies put on their website and then walk back when you actually call. We mean it. Depending on the day and volume, we can frequently be at your Ukrainian Village address within hours of your call. The fastest way to find out is to call 773-412-4902 or book online.
No Franchise Fees = Lower Prices
National junk removal chains build their pricing to cover royalties, regional management overhead, and brand licensing fees. As a locally-owned operation, we don't carry that cost, and we pass the savings directly to you. When we quote your job, you're getting a real number based on the actual volume of junk, not a formula designed to feed a corporate structure.
What We Remove: Full-Service Junk Hauling
The short answer: almost everything. The slightly longer answer is below.
Furniture & Appliance Removal
Sofas, sectionals, sleeper sofas, mattresses, box springs, refrigerators, stoves, dishwashers, washers, dryers, desks, dressers, wardrobes, entertainment units, exercise equipment, and home office furniture. Our crew does all the heavy lifting.
Basement & Garage Cleanouts
In Ukrainian Village's older building stock, basements become de facto storage for everything nobody wants but nobody throws away. Filing cabinets, holiday decorations, broken tools, old furniture. Give us a window and we'll give you a clean slate.
Estate Cleanouts
When a family needs to clear a home after a loss—often with a lease end date or a buyer's closing deadline bearing down—we approach these jobs with care, discretion, and speed. We work around your timeline.
Hoarding Cleanup
Hoarding situations require a different level of patience and a non-judgmental attitude. We don't rush, we don't comment, and we work systematically through the space until it's clear.
Construction & Renovation Debris
The renovation wave that's moved through Ukrainian Village has left a lot of debris in its wake—demo material, drywall scraps, old fixtures, tile, and lumber. If your contractor isn't hauling it, we will.
General Junk & Clutter
Bagged trash, electronics, TVs, yard debris, carpets, rugs, barbecue grills, patio furniture, outdoor equipment, books, boxes, and general household clutter. If it's not hazardous, we take it.
One thing we cannot take: hazardous materials including paint, chemicals, asbestos, and similar toxic items.

We Do All the Work
Loading, carrying, maneuvering through tight doorways and narrow staircases—that's on us. You point and we haul.
Sweep Up
Once the truck is loaded, we do a quick sweep of the area to make sure we haven't left any loose debris behind.
Responsible Disposal
Usable items get donated where possible. Recyclable materials are separated. The rest goes to a licensed disposal facility.
Eco-Friendly Disposal: What Happens After We Leave
"Eco-friendly" gets thrown around a lot in this industry. Here's what it actually means for us.
Donation First
Items in reasonable condition—furniture, clothing, housewares—go to Chicago-area donation partners before they go anywhere near a landfill.
Recycling Second
Metals, electronics, cardboard, and other recyclable materials are separated and routed to appropriate recycling facilities.
Proper Disposal Last
Whatever can't be donated or recycled goes to a licensed waste disposal facility that operates within Cook County regulations.
Honest About Our Impact
We're not perfect at keeping things out of landfills—no junk removal company can promise that entirely—but we take the extra steps that most won't bother with.
What Our Customers in the Ukrainian Village Area Are Saying
606 Junk holds a 5.0 star rating on Google.
"30 years of junk, gone in 3 hours. Dom came out on a Sunday to estimate a basement clear out on our 3 flat. Dom gave me a very reasonable estimate for what ended up being two completely full trailer loads of junk... Dom and his crew came the following Monday at 9 and got to work right away."
"Easy to work with, competitive prices, and most importantly (for me) can deliver same day in many cases. Customer service is friendly and respectful. Some other companies have complicated processes and call centers... 606 is straight forward. Used them for my multi-units in Chicago!"
"606 Junk was recommended by our property management company and we couldn't be happier."
