Laurel Park homes sit on some of the prettiest and steepest ground in Henderson County, from cottages off Fifth Avenue West to hillside homes up Laurel Park Highway toward Jump Off Rock. Talk Trash handles the heavy lifting on those winding roads. We'll haul off brush between the Town's pickup seasons, clear a garage, or empty a whole house before a move. You get an upfront price, and we sweep up before we go.

Missed the brush window? Outside the Town's two collection periods, residents are asked not to pile yard waste by the road (Town of Laurel Park). If a storm drops limbs in July or you finish a big yard project in December, text us a photo and we'll haul it away.
Laurel Park grew up as a summer resort. Its "captivating tangle of interesting lanes," cottages and mature rhododendron are part of the charm (Hendersonville Magazine). They're also why junk removal here takes some planning:
Narrow, curving roads: We bring the right size truck and trailer, and we plan where to park before we arrive.
Steep driveways and hillside lots: We carry items down safely, with no dragging across your landscaping.
Older cottages: Tight doorways, narrow stairs and low basements are handled carefully.
Multi-level homes: Basements, lower-level garages and upstairs bedrooms all cleared in one visit.
Condos and townhomes: Such as Country Ridge, where we work within HOA rules and parking limits.
Brush and limb removal, year-round: Brush piles, fallen limbs, logs, storm debris, and limbs cut by a tree service.
Yard cleanups: Overgrowth, vines, old landscaping, railroad ties and edging. (Optional: follow-up lawn care after the cleanup.)
Downsizing and senior move cleanouts: Clearing what isn't making the move, at your pace.
Estate cleanouts: Patient, respectful help for families settling a loved one's home.
Furniture removal: Sofas, recliners, lift chairs, dressers, beds, dining sets and china cabinets.
Appliance removal: Refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, stoves and water heaters.
Garage, basement and attic cleanouts: Years of storage, gone in one visit.
Remodel and construction debris: Cabinets, drywall, flooring, fixtures, doors and lumber. These are items weekly trash pickup won't take.
Hot tub removal: Old spas carried off decks and hillsides.
Light demolition: Old sheds, decks, playsets and fencing.
Second-home and rental cleanouts: For owners who aren't here full time.

When does the Town of Laurel Park pick up brush?
The Town collects loose brush twice a year, during scheduled windows posted in its newsletter and on its website. Limbs must be 3 inches or less in diameter and no longer than 6 feet. Logs, stumps, root balls and tree-service cuts aren't collected, and yard waste shouldn't be piled by the road outside those windows (Town of Laurel Park). We haul brush and limbs any time of year.
Will my trash service take remodel debris?
No. Laurel Park's hauler, Maybin's, doesn't accept construction debris in regular pickup (Town of Laurel Park). We haul cabinets, drywall, flooring, fixtures and lumber.
Does Maybin's pick up furniture?
Maybin's offers bulk pickups for items like furniture and appliances, which residents arrange directly with Maybin's at 828-692-9872. If your items are still inside, heavy or mixed with other junk, we carry it all out in one trip.
Can your truck make it up my road?
Almost always. Laurel Park's narrow, winding roads and steep driveways are part of the job here. Tell us about your access when you book, and we'll bring the right setup.
Can you help my parents downsize?
Yes. It's one of our most common Laurel Park jobs. We work at their pace, coordinate with family, set aside keepsakes, and donate what we can.
How much does junk removal cost in Fletcher?
Single items start at $99.00 and a full truckload runs $650.00, including labor, loading and disposal. Text a photo to 828-845-4046 for a quick quote, or book a free walkthrough for barns and acreage.
Do you haul storm debris?
Yes. We haul fallen limbs, brush, logs and storm debris year-round, including amounts too large for the Town's seasonal pickup.
What can't you take?
We can't take hazardous materials such as liquid paint, solvents, pesticides, fuel, propane tanks, asbestos and medical waste. If you're unsure about an item, text us a photo.
