Frequently Asked Questions
-
What Areas Do You Service?All of New Jersey and Surrounding Areas.
-
What types of items are you able to repurpose?Furniture, appliances, smaller household items, like decor, housewares, garage, and shed stuff, kitchenware, stuff that comes out of cabinets, closets & drawers, etc. and pretty much anything depending on style, condition and usefulness.
-
What do you do with the good stuff that gets Repurposed or Recycled?Pet related items, towels, and blankets are donated to animal shelters and veterinarians. Clothing and linens, depending on style, age and condition are donated to shelters and organizations in need. Some of the furniture and household items are given directly to people in need as well as to Salvation Army, Veterans Organizations and Good Will. Metal goes to the metal scrapyard. The rest gets sold at Flea Markets and Online Markets to generate enough income to cover the time spent on the removal as well as the expenses involved in removing, transporting, storing and selling them.
-
How are you able to charge less for the Removal than other companies?We only dump what we can't be reused... Which keeps over 65% out of the landfill... Which lowers your cost by saving on the disposal fees
-
How do you determine the cost?Primarily by how much you have that has to be removed along with how much of it can be reused.
-
Are you able to take Stuff for Free?Yes. The people taking the small stuff for free support or supplement their income by selling the stuff at a flea market and donating what doesn't get sold.
-
What do you do with good reusable furniture?It will get donated to Goodwill.
-
Can you provide a tax deductible receipt for the items that get donated to Good Will?Yes, of course.

You can email a list or description to Jenna@TooMuchStuff.com When emailing, please include your phone # 3. You can go to our Contact Us Page and fill out the form.
-
When taking pictures is there anything I need to know?We won't need close-ups of individual items. Instead, pictures of whole rooms or piles are ideal. ​I'll acknowledge receipt and then call you within an hour or so to answer any questions you have and/or schedule. Feel free to send pictures of everything that needs to be removed, including larger items and trash, if you'd like a phone estimate for the removal.
-
Do you come out to give an estimate?Yes, if need be.
-
Do you provide written estimates"?Yes we do.
-
How are you able to charge less than other companies?We are able to discount the cost of removal by saving the expense of disposal fees and by utilizing the services of the people who repurpose your stuff. Those people have lower overhead costs than a removal company. . Those savings are passed on to our customers. The end result is that you benefit from the savings while doing less work yourself, while your good stuff is going to people and places who need it, leaving only the real trash going to the disposal facilities. By managing the process for you we no longer need an office or warehouse for storage (Jenna works from home), and we spend less time traveling to and from disposal facilities, all of which eliminates the need for office & storage expenses, lowers insurance costs, lowers fuel bills, and lowers truck maintenance and repair expenses, and more. Please visit our How Does This Work page for more information and examples.
