I usually work alone. Fee is $80 per half-ton pick-up truck load, plus the discard fees (known as "tipping fees.") For example, a couch costs $9 to discard at the Glastonbury Transfer Station. I can give an estimate over the phone, to be fine-tuned in person. I may charge a bit more for " the long carry" i.e. many trips to the attic of a colonial home .

Emergency Services Offered
Services we offer
I perform what New Englanders call "Dump Runs," pick-up truck loads from home or business for disposal. The towns I work in typically do not offer curbside pick-up of bulky household items. I take those items away to the appropriate location.
Services we don't offer
I cannot take household hazardous waste- i.e. pesticides and paints. Waterbased paints should be opened to slowly dry
or mixed with kitty litter/speedydry to form a solid mass.Most Connecticut towns offer periodic Household Hazardous Waste Collections at regional sites, primarily in the spring and autumn. Call your public works department for dates.
days for oil-based paints, pesticides, cleaning products and florescent lightbulbs- these collection days tend to schedule
spring and autumn.
You can't find a nicer and kinder gentleman to help you out when the going get's tough. He can find a way to put more things in his truck than you could possibly imagine. Always on time and get's the job done in a blink. I can highly recommend him!

He arrived five minutes early!! He loaded the truck to overflowing (we had too much junk), and was very helpful and professional. The price was fair, the time spent was brief, and I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

First of all - Paul is honest. I had called another "A" graded organization from Angie's list and was told that there would be an additional $30 "environmental" fee per mattress and per box spring. I asked Paul if he charged extra for mattress and box spring disposal and he told me that transfer stations in CT no longer charge fees to dispose of mattresses. Second - Paul is punctual. He was waiting for me when I arrived. I was on time and Paul was early. Third - Paul is professional. Prior to meeting, I explained what needed to be moved and where it was located in the house. Paul said it would take him 2 trips. I told him that I had very limited time during the day. Paul took all the furniture out of the house first so I didn't have to wait around. I paid him before he left with the first load, which was a risk. When I returned, all the furniture had been removed. Again - very honest. Fourth - Paul is local. Paul is a local businessman and I think we should all support our local entrepreneurs over the big name companies. So, if you need help cleaning anything out of your house, Better Call Paul!
Description of Work: Paul moved a queen sized mattress and box spring, a twin sized mattress and box spring, 2 couches, several dressers and a dryer out of my mother-in-laws house.

The garage was quite disgusting and Paul had to work around a large classic car that did not run and could not be removed for the clean out. He worked diligently and methodically. I was very impressed and I will DEFINITELY use him again. It took 5 truckloads at $80 per truck and I had $36 in tipping fees. For the job I had I thought it was very reasonable. I think that if I had gotten a dumpster and done it myself it probably would have run in the ballpark of what I paid . Thanks, Paul!
Description of Work: Paul cleared out a garage I had filled with furniture and all kinds construction debris from a renovation which had been sitting in there for about 8 years.

Paul was professional, prompt, and his pick-up truck was the perfect size for the amount of trash I had accumulated. Much cheaper and much faster turnaround than getting a dumpster. I have more to clear from my basement, and I look forward to hiring him again.

Paul was excellent --friendly, honest, hard-working. We were under serious time constraints, and he had the house broom clean on time. I was totally impressed by his reliability and intelligence. He documented each dump run, each problem faced, and communicated well. He works alone, so I was worried he would get done in time. (I live too far away to have been there every day). But he did it. The biggest issue was the pile of hazardous household waste. The dump wouldn't take it, and the buyer wouldn't let us keep it there until the next haz-mat day. With Paul's help, we were finally able to reduce the pile and get rid of it. Paul's most exceptional quality is his sensitivity. He understands old houses and old people and the relationship between junk and lives lived. We were lucky to find him.
Description of Work: Cleaning out my aunt's small house, which was overflowing with mildewed old junk, in preparation for sale. Taking stuff to dump, throwing stuff out, deciding what could be kept, heavy cleaning.

it was a fine transaction overall. Mr. Fitzpatrick returns calls promptly, arrives on time, bills honestly, and returns as scheduled to complete the job as agreed.
Description of Work: Mr. Paul Fitzpatrick was very professional , very personable gentleman, a pleasure to do business with. He removed two truck loads of hefty items from our basement and garage easily, neatly, and in a most timely fashion. We had two trunks, a dresser, as well as weight lifting/exercise apparatus, and a host of other miscellaneous items. He was honest about all charges and fees associated with using the dump in Glastonbury and is knowledgeable about recycling all sort of household items. I woud recommend him without a single reservation and look forward to doing business with him again in the future.

Fantastic. We are seniors and wanted someone to do the work rather than fill a dumpster ourselves. I got three quotes. Paul was in the middle, but what I liked about him was his honesty and that he separated materials. In a small town, that's important. He went out of his way to accommodate us. We left our home for vacation with at least ten truckloads left in garage and basement. His parting words were "don't worry, it will all be done." The place was spotless (we're trying to sell our home); he even swept out the garage/basement. Everything was gone. He gave us complete peace of mind.
Description of Work: Paul does work by truckload. His charge is truckload plus tipping fees. He separates material to go to dump, which is why we hired him. He does all the work, filling his truck to maximum. He came when expected, called when necessary, and did an outstanding job, cleaning up garage and basement after he made his runs.
