FSU & FAMU Move-Out Pickup in Tallahassee

What we haul out of your apartment

Everything an apartment accumulates over a 12-month lease. Working or broken, assembled or in pieces.

• Couches & furniture

  Roommate couches, IKEA flat-pack, the broken futon. Disassembly if you need it.

• Mattresses & box springs

  Dorm twins, queen sets. Stained or otherwise unacceptable for donation is fine.

• Mini fridges & microwaves

  Common after roommates leave. We'll grab as many as you've got.

• Textbooks & paperbacks

  We'll route them to libraries or shelter book drives instead of trash.

• TVs, monitors, electronics

  Dead or working. We do EPA-compliant disposal for screens and electronics.

• Whole-apartment cleanouts

  4-bedroom apartments emptied in one trip. Schedule us a few days ahead.

College move-out FAQ

Common questions from FSU, FAMU, and TCC students. Or just call us — we'll talk through your situation.

How early should I book my move-out pickup?

As soon as you know your lease end date. We get slammed in late April (FSU spring lease end) and again in early-to-mid August (fall lease turnover). A week or two ahead is great; the closer to move-out day you call, the more likely you are to get a window that doesn't perfectly align with when the leasing office wants you out.

Will you pick up from a 4-bedroom apartment with multiple sets of stuff?

Yes — that's actually our specialty during move-out season. Most College Town / Glen at FSU / Stadium Centre / Standard at Tallahassee apartments are 4-bedroom, and we send a truck and crew sized for the full unit. We can handle four mattresses, four desks, a sectional, and the kitchen full of dishes in a single visit.

Do I need to carry anything to the curb?

No. We come into the apartment and bring everything out ourselves. You point, we lift. If you live in a third-floor walk-up, just let us know when you book so we send the right size crew.

What about the deposit — will the leasing office charge me for leaving stuff?

That's exactly the situation we exist to prevent. Apartment complexes around FSU, FAMU, and TCC routinely charge $50–$200 PER ITEM for furniture/appliance removal at lease end. Call us a day before keys go back, we empty the unit, you walk through clean.

I have roommates moving out at different dates — can I book separate pickups?

Yes. We can do one room at a time, multiple stops at the same apartment over a week, or whatever you need. Just call as the dates firm up.

Can you take stuff I want to ship home next semester?

We're a pickup and disposal service, not a storage company. For storage between semesters, look at companies like College Box, Dorm Room Movers, or a local self-storage facility. We handle the stuff you DON'T want anymore.

What if I'm not in town on the move-out date?

Common situation for international students or students whose parents are doing the move. Schedule us, leave a key under a mat or with a roommate, and we'll handle it. Send a photo or video walkthrough of what needs to go so there's no confusion. We'll text you when the job is done.

Do you work with FSU, FAMU, or TCC directly through housing programs?

Informally. We're a known quantity to a lot of the off-campus apartment complexes around all three campuses. We're not contracted to the university housing departments — those usually go through their own dumpster process. We work with individual student renters in private apartments.
