South Slope is where Strictly Junk Removal lives. Our truck parks on 20th St, a few blocks off the north end of Green-Wood, which means a pickup here is about as fast as we get anywhere. We know which blocks run one-way the wrong direction, where the alleys cut behind the row houses, and how to get a sleeper sofa down a narrow stoop without taking the banister with it.

The housing is mostly three and four story row houses and small walk-up buildings, a lot of them cut into two or three apartments. That means stairs on nearly every job, tight turns at the landings, and doorways framed long before anyone owned a sectional. We carry from the top floor down as a matter of course, and there is no stair fee for it.

Between Prospect Avenue and the low 20s the work splits about evenly. Move-outs and single-item pickups off Seventh and Eighth Avenue, and bigger clear-outs in the houses closer to the cemetery, where families have been in the same building long enough to fill a basement twice over.

On the ground

What working in South Slope actually involves.

  • Row houses and small walk-ups

    Most South Slope buildings top out at four floors with no elevator, and the stairwell turns hard at each landing. Anything wide, a box spring, a wardrobe, a sleeper sofa, has to be angled or taken apart on the way down. We work that out before we start carrying rather than discovering it at the second-floor turn.

  • We already know where to put the truck

    The side streets between Fifth and Eighth are narrow and mostly one-way, and alternate side parking takes out half the curb on any given morning. Being based here means we know which blocks clear when. If the curb outside your door is full, we stage nearby and carry, rather than circling and eating your appointment window.

  • What we clear most here

    Basement and cellar cleanouts lead, since plenty of these houses have been held by the same family for decades. After that it is move-out furniture off the avenues, renovation debris from the steady run of parlor-floor gut jobs, and the occasional whole-house clearance.
