Why MyTrashBid

The honest way to get junk hauled

Built on real, reliable local haulers — not a faceless call center or a lead-selling machine.

Fast & easy

Snap a few photos, describe what's going, drop your ZIP. Bids come to you — no phone tag, no waiting on hold.

🛡️

Trustworthy

Every hauler is license-verified, insured, and feedback-rated. The "Vetted" badge actually means something.

💰

Great prices

Local haulers submit sealed bids for your job — they never see each other's price, so you get real competition instead of one inflated phone quote.

How it works

Three steps from cluttered to cleared

1

Post your job

Add photos and a quick description of what needs to go — or pick a dumpster/trailer rental and your dates instead. Takes about 90 seconds.

2

Compare sealed bids

Vetted local haulers send sealed bids — they can't see each other's price. You compare price, reviews, and availability, all in one place.

3

Pick & relax

Accept the bid you like and pay a 10% deposit to lock it in. You pay the rest directly to your hauler when the job's done.

Frequently asked questions

Posting a job is completely free. When you accept a bid, you pay a 10% deposit to MyTrashBid to lock the job in. You then pay the remaining balance directly to your hauler at completion — cash, check, or their preferred method.

Most jobs get their first bid within a few hours, and the majority receive bids within 24 hours. Adding clear photos and rough measurements helps haulers bid faster and more accurately.

Yes. Every hauler completes license verification and insurance confirmation before they can bid. They're also rated by customers after every job.

Haulers only ever see their own bid — never what anyone else bid on the same job. You see every hauler's price and review history side by side and pick whichever one you want.

Pick "Rent a dumpster" in the quote form, choose trailer or roll-off and your drop-off/pickup dates. Vetted local providers send sealed bids just like a junk-removal job — you pick the one you want and pay the same 10% deposit to lock it in.

You pay a 10% deposit through MyTrashBid when you accept a bid — that locks in your hauler. The remaining 90% is paid directly to your hauler when the work is done. The hauler confirms completion, which unlocks reviews for both sides.

About MyTrashBid

Why we built this

A few years ago, I had a garage full of junk and no idea what it would cost to get rid of it. So I did what everyone does — called five different haulers, described the pile over the phone to five different people, and got five wildly different quotes, none of which I trusted. One guy wanted to "come take a look" before he'd even ballpark it. Another just stopped returning calls.

It wasn't that haulers were bad at their jobs — most of them were great. The problem was the process: no visibility, no easy way to compare, and no way to know if the price you got was fair or just whatever the guy on the phone felt like quoting that day.

MyTrashBid is the fix I wished existed. Post a couple photos and a quick description, and real local haulers send you real, sealed bids — no phone tag, no guessing, no pressure. You see price and reviews side by side and pick whoever you trust. They get steady work in their own backyard; you get a fair price and your garage back.

That's it. No call centers, no lead-selling, no middleman inflating the price. Just local haulers, competing honestly, for your job.
