Royal Junk Pros, based in Independence, does junk removal and cleanouts in Independence, Monday to Friday, 8 to 5. Prices start at $125; a full 26-foot truck is $2,200.
Royal Junk Pros is based right here in Independence, and most days we don't drive more than fifteen minutes to get to a job. We clean out garages, basements, and whole houses all over town, from Englewood to Lake City and Mount Washington to Sugar Creek. We know which streets get narrow, which alleys our 26-foot box truck can actually get down, and which neighborhoods have HOA rules about dumpster placement.
Since we're based in Independence, same-day is usually possible here when you book before noon on a weekday. We also know the right local disposal partners: the Jackson County transfer station, the Habitat for Humanity ReStore, and the Goodwill drop-off near the Square. That means more of your old stuff gets donated or recycled instead of landfilled.

Trash & disposal rules in Independence
Independence doesn't run a city trash service, so the options for big items work differently than in Kansas City:
- ●There's no city bulky pickup. Residents hire a private hauler (the city lists AAA Disposal, Allied/Republic, Compost Connection, GFL, Stewart Hauling, Ted's Trash Service and WM), and bulky pickup depends on your hauler, so ask yours first.
- ●The Drop-Off Depot at 875 S. Vista Ave takes furniture, mattresses, appliances and brush on the second Saturday of each month, April through October, 8 AM to 3 PM. It's for Independence residents only (bring a license or utility bill), takes cash or a local check, and charges per vehicle. The 2026 season ended October 10; check independencemo.gov in the spring.
- ●The Depot doesn't take bagged leaves, grass or other yard waste, and yard waste can't go in the trash: Missouri has banned it from landfills since 1990. It needs a compost drop-off, your hauler's yard-waste service, or a haul-away.
- ●For what your hauler or the Depot can't fit (same-day, carried out from inside the house, no item caps), that's us. We're based right here.

Real customers across the Kansas City metro, in their own words.
“These guys are amazing. Called them needing junk removed, with the only access to the property being a closed road under construction. They gave me a quote and came out same day - took multiple trips, cleaned up the entire area, and were extremely courteous and professional. Will absolutely use again - very reasonably priced, efficient, and did the job better than I even expected! Could not recommend more.”
“Very professional they came out the same day we called them and got our whole basement cleaned out! Would highly recommend them to anyone!”
“Called Royal Jun Pros on a Friday morning and they were on site within 4 hours and took care of everything. Received before and after photos of what needed to be cleaned up and they also repaired my fence while on site. A definite 5 star company and will use them again when needed. Great job!”
“Had Royal Junk Pros come out to clean my garage, and they did a great job. I had a bunch of old junk and random stuff that had piled up over the years, and they got everything loaded up way faster than I expected. They showed up when they said they would, were friendly and professional, and made the whole process really easy.”
“After I sent a text to the guys via the website, they sent an estimate quickly and a time they could come pick up my items. They were communicative, professional, and polite! They were at my house same day and got everything I needed hauled away. Super easy and reasonably priced!”
“Dominic and Austin turned up less than 24 hours after I called. They worked quickly and I appreciate their diligence. They had me back at work in no time, which I guess isn't their fault lol”
