Here are options and practical tips for corporate / commercial junk removal in Toronto, plus ballpark pricing and what to ask when booking.

Top vetted providers (full-service commercial office, retail, warehouse cleanouts)

• 1-800-GOT-JUNK? — national full-service junk removal (onsite estimate, prices by truck-volume; includes loading, disposal fees and insured crews). Good for office moves, single-day commercial cleanouts. (1800gotjunk.com)
• JunkClinic — advertises dedicated commercial services (office, retail, warehouse, property cleanouts) across the GTA. Good for larger or scheduled multi-room office projects. (JunkClinic.com)
• Canada Junk / Junk Canada — local GTA operator offering commercial and event waste solutions, recycling and donation sorting, demolition and regular service contracts. Useful if you prefer a local firm with recycling/donation focus. (canadajunk.com)
• JunkGone / local independent crews — smaller local operators that handle commercial pickups and may be more flexible for night/weekend work or recurring pickups. (Call for free estimates.) (JunkGone.ca)

Typical pricing models and a ballpark

• Most firms price by truck volume (how much of the truck your items occupy) or by a flat/project rate. Example volume pricing starts around low hundreds for a 1/4 truck and rises with load size; 1-800-GOT-JUNK and local services use this model. Expect small office pickups to start ~CAD 150–350 and full-truck or large multi-room cleanouts CAD 400–1,000+ depending on volume and items (appliances, bulky furniture, concrete/soil raise costs). Always get an onsite estimate. (1800gotjunk.com)

What to ask before you book (checklist)

• Do you provide a written quote or an on-site estimate? (On-site is standard for accurate pricing.) (1800gotjunk.com)
• Do you handle hazardous items (batteries, paint, e-waste) or will I need a separate contractor?
• Are crews insured and bonded? Request proof of liability insurance and WSIB (workers’ compensation) coverage for commercial sites.
• How do you handle recycling and donations? Ask for diversion rates or where items are taken. Local firms often sort for donation/recycling. (canadajunk.com)
• Can you provide references or photos of similar commercial jobs and a clear invoice (HST, disposal fees, labour)?
• Scheduling: ask about evening/weekend availability if you need after-hours work.

Permits, building rules and logistics

• For multi-floor office or building common-area moving, confirm building move-in/move-out rules, elevator booking, protection pads, liability rules, and whether a building attendant is required. Many providers will coordinate but you must confirm access and loading zone permits with the property manager.

How to get the best price and reduce landfill

• Consolidate and label items to keep crews from spending time sorting on site.
• Separate recyclables and electronics in advance (often cheaper to have them recycled/donated than charged as general waste).
• Ask about donation pickup — many companies will divert usable furniture to charities (may reduce price). (canadajunk.com)

Next steps (fast)

1. Get 2–3 free onsite estimates from the providers above (or other local firms).
