Junk removal in Xenia, OH from a crew just up the road in Fairborn
Xenia gives you one free bulk item a week through Rumpke. That's great for one wrapped couch at the curb. It's not much help when the couch is in the basement, the garage is full, or there's a dead shed and a brush pile out back.
That's where we come in. Zach's Pack Hauling is a small, owner-run crew based in Fairborn, about 15 to 20 minutes from downtown Xenia. We carry it out from wherever it is, load it, haul it, and sweep up. You get a firm price before anything goes on the trailer.

Xenia neighborhoods and what the job usually looks like
Xenia has 1800s houses downtown, whole neighborhoods rebuilt after the 1974 tornado, and farm ground on the edges of town. Each one comes with its own kind of job.
Downtown and the historic district
The oldest homes in town, with porches, front steps, narrow doors and steep basement stairs. Street parking is common, so tell us where the trailer can sit.
Arrowhead and Windsor Park
These neighborhoods took the worst of the April 1974 tornado, and much of them was rebuilt afterward. Expect 1970s-and-newer houses with basements and attached garages. These are usually simple carry-outs.
Near Shawnee Park and Xenia Station
Established streets close to the bike trail hub, with garages and basements. Old bikes, fitness gear and garage clutter all go in the same load.
Rentals and apartments
Clearing a unit between tenants? Tell us the floor, whether there's an elevator, and confirm the landlord or manager has OK'd removal.
Xenia Township and the edges of town
Bigger lots and outbuildings. Old sheds, fence lines, brush piles, small trees and above-ground pools all fit in one trip.
Not sure if your address is inside city limits? It changes which trash service you have, but it doesn't change anything for us. We go by the address.
Free city bulk pickup or Zach's Pack?
If it's one item and you can get it to the curb wrapped, use the free Rumpke pickup. It's part of what you already pay for. We make sense when the job is bigger than one item or still inside.
The curb can handle
- One bulk item a week, free, on your regular trash day
- Mattresses and upholstered furniture completely wrapped and sealed in plastic
- Extra items through the City's scheduled paid bulk pickup
- Brush and yard waste at the county drop-off, if you can haul it there
The curb won't take
- Anything still inside the house or garage
- Stumps, dirt and sod at the county yard waste site
- Batteries, tires, liquids and hazardous material in the trash
Call us instead when
- It's in the basement, upstairs or at the back of the garage
- You've got more than a couple of items, or a whole room
- There's a shed, fence or above-ground pool to tear down
- You've got more brush than your car can carry to Greene Way Blvd.
- You need a rental cleared before the next tenant

What junk removal costs in Xenia
We price by how much of the trailer you fill: from $115 for a minimum pickup, $218 for a quarter load, $370 for a half, $478 for three-quarters and $540 for a full load. Since the free city pickup covers one item, most Xenia calls are a few items it doesn't, and that's usually our minimum. Slide it up for a garage, a shed or a whole house.
Prices are starting points for standard household junk. Heavy material, stairs, long carries and special disposal can change the price. You get a firm number before we load anything.

Will the City of Xenia pick up my couch?
Yes, one item a week. Rumpke takes one bulk item free on your regular trash day, and sofas, mattresses and other upholstered pieces have to be completely wrapped and sealed in plastic. For more items, the City has run a paid scheduled bulk pickup. Call 937-376-7260 for the current price. If it's still inside, or you've got several pieces, we'll carry them out.
Where can I take brush in Xenia?
Greene County Environmental Services at 2145 Greene Way Blvd. takes leaves, grass and brush. Brush can be up to 8 feet long and 4 inches thick, and it's open Monday to Friday 10 to 6 and Saturday 9 to 4. No stumps, dirt or sod. If it's too much to haul yourself, we'll load it up.
Can you pull out an old fence, posts and all?
Yes. We take down wood, chain-link and vinyl fencing and pull posts set in concrete, footings included.
Do you disconnect the old washer, dryer or fridge?
Yes, if it isn't hardwired. We unplug it and unhook water lines, ice-maker lines and washer hoses on site. We don't do gas, so a gas dryer or range needs the line capped by a licensed pro first. Dishwashers: most are hardwired, so call or text us first. We may handle it, or an electrician or plumber may need to disconnect it.

We're about 15 to 20 minutes away in Fairborn and work 9 AM to 7 PM, seven days a week. Same-day is possible when the schedule allows. Call or text 326-900-8944 to check.
