A property manager at an Austin-area apartment community had a one-bedroom unit that had gone from "resident moving out" to "full-scale problem." The former resident left everything — furniture, appliances, bagged clothing, mattresses, kitchen contents, and loose debris stacked across every room.

The unit was already off the rent roll. Every day it stayed loaded was a day it couldn't be shown, cleaned, painted, or leased. The maintenance team didn't have the vehicles, the manpower, or the disposal access to clear it — and a roll-off dumpster meant a permit conversation, a 48–72 hour wait, a parking space surrendered for a week, and their own staff doing the lifting.

They called us instead. One crew, one morning, one invoice.

That price is everything: full crew labor, all loading and carry-out, hauling, sorting, donation drop-offs, recycling, hazardous-material handling, and landfill disposal fees. No hourly surprises. No per-item add-ons after the fact. No dumpster rental, delivery, or pickup charge.

Every trash out we quote gets a load level. It's how we translate "the unit is trashed" into a number we can price, staff, and schedule against. Here's where this job landed.

Not sure which level you're looking at? You don't have to guess. Run it through the estimator tool or text us photos and we'll level it for you — free.

Volume is the number that matters, and it's the number most people underestimate. Here's this job measured against the option most property managers reach for first.

The honest comparison: this single job filled nearly two full 20-yard dumpsters — and a dumpster doesn't carry anything down a flight of stairs for you. Our trucks run 900 cubic feet of hauling capacity with a crew attached to them. That's the whole difference.

Every IREP trash out runs through our four-color sorting system on site — not at a transfer station, not "later." Black for landfill, blue for recycling, yellow for donation, orange for hazardous materials. It's how a cleanout turns into a circular economy event instead of a one-way trip to the dump.

63% of this unit was donated or recycled — roughly 4,000 pounds kept out of the landfill. Another 5% was hazardous material handled through proper channels instead of being tossed in a dumpster your property would be liable for. You get the diversion numbers in writing, which is exactly the kind of documentation that supports ESG reporting, corporate sustainability goals, and City of Austin waste-diversion requirements.
