Junk removal,
done right.
Speedy Gonzo's is a veteran-owned junk removal service for homes and businesses across Peoria, Bloomington, Springfield, and Chicagoland. If you can point at it, we can haul it.
Wondering about one specific thing? See the full what-we-take list, room by room, including the short list we are not allowed to haul.
One-time
You have a pile, a room, or a whole property. We come once, it goes in the truck, and that is the end of it.
Household Junk Removal
Old furniture piling up? Broken appliance taking up space? We remove couches, mattresses, dressers, refrigerators, washers, dryers, TVs, and everything else clogging your home. Point at it, we haul it.
- Furniture (couches, mattresses, dressers, tables, chairs)
- Appliances (refrigerators, washers, dryers, stoves, dishwashers)
- Electronics (TVs, monitors, computers, printers)
- General clutter, clothing, toys, and household items
- Single-item pickups or full home cleanouts
Yard & Outdoor Debris
Storm damage, landscaping leftovers, or years of yard neglect. We clear branches, brush, dirt, rocks, fencing, old decking, sheds, hot tubs, and above-ground pools. Your yard, reclaimed.
- Branches, leaves, brush, and tree limbs
- Dirt, rocks, sod, and gravel
- Fencing, decking materials, and lattice
- Hot tub and above-ground pool removal
- Shed tear-down and removal
Construction & Renovation Debris
Remodeling creates a mess. We handle drywall, lumber, flooring, cabinets, countertops, fixtures, and scrap from your renovation project so your contractor can keep working and you can see the finished product sooner.

- Flooring (tile, carpet, hardwood, laminate)
- Cabinets, countertops, and vanities
- Doors, windows, trim, and fixtures
- Scrap metal and leftover building materials
Garage, Basement & Storage Cleanouts
Can't park in your garage? Basement full of boxes from 2010? We do full cleanouts of garages, basements, attics, and storage units. We sort, haul, and donate usable items on your behalf.
- Full garage cleanouts
- Basement and attic clearing
- Storage unit cleanouts
- Old tools, bikes, sports gear, and boxes

Office & Commercial Junk
Closing an office? Renovating retail space? Clearing a warehouse? We handle desks, chairs, cubicles, filing cabinets, retail fixtures, and bulk commercial waste. Flexible scheduling to minimize business disruption.

- Filing cabinets, paperwork, and records (shredding available)
- Retail fixtures, displays, and signage

Specialty & Estate Services
Some jobs need extra care. Estate cleanouts after a loved one passes. Foreclosure cleanups on tight deadlines. Heavy items like exercise equipment, playsets, and trampolines. We handle it all with respect and efficiency.

- Foreclosure and eviction cleanups
- Exercise equipment and gym gear
- Playsets, trampolines, and swing sets
- Scrap metal collection and recycling
Demolition & Teardown
Some things do not just get carried out - they have to come apart first. We handle light, non-structural teardown: sheds, decks, fences, hot tubs, above-ground pools, playsets, and concrete slabs, dismantled in place and hauled off. Demo labor and debris removal in one flat price.

- Playsets, swing sets, and trampolines
- Concrete slabs, patios, walkways, and steps broken out
- Old flooring, carpet, and paneling tear-out
- Non-structural only - no load-bearing or whole-building demolition
Dumpster Rental
Need a container instead of a crew? Efren brings out his own dump trailer, 7ft by 14ft with 6ft mesh sides. Describe the job on the phone and he tells you whether it fits. He drops it around your schedule, comes back for it himself, and stays the number you call until it is gone. And if you would rather not fill it yourself, the same crew that does our haul away work can load it for you.
- One trailer, 7ft x 14ft with 6ft mesh sides
- One local point of contact for the drop, the timeline, and the pickup
- Optional loading by our crew instead of you
- Driveway or street placement reviewed before delivery, permits flagged
- Straight answer on whether a container beats a haul away for your job
Recurring and scheduled
Some jobs are not a pile you clear once. Lawn care, trash pickup, and snow removal are the same truck and the same guy on a rhythm you pick instead of a single visit. Coverage is not identical across the three, so check the page for the one you need.
Lawn Care
Mowing, edging, trimming, and the cleanup that comes with it, on a rhythm you pick rather than a fixed calendar every customer gets forced into. Weekly, biweekly, or seasonal. Not landscape design, not new plantings, not irrigation work. Efren looks at the yard and gives you a number before anything gets scheduled.
- Mowing and edging on a set schedule
- Trimming along fences, beds, and hardscape
- Clippings and cleanup hauled off, not left in piles
- Leaf removal and seasonal yard cleanup
- One-time yard cleanup available too
Trash Pickup
A standing pickup instead of a phone call every time something fills up. Businesses, apartments, and multi-family properties anywhere we work. Households outside Peoria city limits can go on a real weekly or biweekly schedule. Inside the city, weekly household trash is already contracted and paid for on your property tax bill, so what we handle there is the part that bin will not hold.
- Standing schedule for shops, restaurants, contractors, and offices
- One schedule for a whole apartment property or HOA
- Weekly or biweekly for homes outside Peoria city limits
- Overflow and bulk inside the city, not a replacement for curbside
- Priced by container size, schedule, and location
Snow Removal
Driveways, walkways, entryways, and business lot access points, plowed or cleared by hand depending on what the property calls for. Point us at what has to stay open and we handle it every time it snows. Priced after a look at the layout, not off a list.
- Residential driveway plowing
- Walkway and sidewalk clearing
- Business and commercial lot access points
- Entryway and porch clearing
- On the route before the first storm, not after
One Guy On The Phone.
One Guy At Your Door.
Efren's veteran-owned, and he still answers his own phone. No call center, no dispatcher, no rotating crew of subs. Whoever quotes your job on the phone is the one who pulls into your driveway and does the work.
Pricing.
Flat rate, quoted before we start, based on what's actually going in the truck. Single item from $130, a full trailer $850. No surprise line-items when we back up your driveway.
Who shows up.
Efren. Every job, every time. Not a different sub each visit.
Speed.
Same-day pickup most days, anywhere in the Peoria metro.
Where it goes.
Up to 60% of what we haul is donated or recycled instead of landfilled.
Military & first responders.
15% off, every job, no exceptions.
Not sure what you need.
Ask on the phone. Either answer is a job we get paid for, so there's no reason to steer you wrong.
One guy, one truck, no surprises.
We haul
almost anything.
Call us and we'll let you know if we can handle it. If not, we'll point you toward someone who can.
