Garages and ADU conversions

Most South Bay homes have no basement, so the garage holds everything, and many are being cleared for ADU conversions. Dropcurb collects what you've already staged outside. JunkRabbit crews empty the garage and load directly.

Relocation deadlines

Transfers and new jobs leave whole apartments of furniture on a hard lease date. JunkRabbit books a 2-hour arrival window, 7 days a week from 8am to midnight, with same-day pickup when you book by 4 PM. Dropcurb schedules pickup for a day, with a 2 PM same-day cutoff.

HOAs, towers and Eichlers

HOA communities discourage curb piles, downtown and North San José buildings ask for a certificate of insurance (JunkRabbit emails one within 1 hour), and Eichlers need careful carrying past glass walls. All of that happens indoors with JunkRabbit.
