BIG MOVES. FRESH STARTS.Moving & junk removal across 7 Illinois counties ↗

OPEN THE DOOR TO A MORE USEFUL SPACE.

Give your Mundelein storage space a fresh start.

The garage and storage rooms can hold the hardest part of a move: things you have not looked through in years. Second Chance offers junk removal and moving in Mundelein so the boxes, bulky pieces and belongings can be planned before loading begins.

Mundelein, Illinois · Lake County

Inspect the shelf before emptying it.

A garage clearout should start with identification, not a truck-sized pile. Leave uncertain containers separate and describe them before booking.

Find the belongings you want

Check sealed boxes before marking them for removal. Set tools, keepsakes and move-ready belongings apart so the wrong group is not loaded.

Identify the large pieces

List cabinets, furniture and appliances with approximate dimensions. Tell us whether they are freestanding, attached or obstructed; do not assume disconnection or demolition is included.

Separate unusual materials

Keep electronics, batteries and old household products out of general clutter. Discuss the exact items and appropriate handling before mixing any load.

LOCAL PLANNING NOTE

Look at Mundelein’s resident options for electronics.

Mundelein’s 2025 newcomer guide describes residential electronic-waste collection through Groot and says residents must contact Groot for collection. Check current eligibility and arrangements with the provider before setting electronics out.

That resident program is separate from our private hauling service. Use it to plan the electronics portion of a clearout while discussing furniture and other accepted removal items with us.

Work shelf by shelf, with a clear route through the space.

Build a useful inventory from the space you have.

What is ready to leave?

Count the bulky items rather than describing only a full garage. A clear list helps us discuss labor and special handling without guessing from the room size.

What is going to another address?

Tell us which retained belongings need moving, where they are going and how they will be unloaded. Box loose items and discuss packing needs before the appointment.

What must stay accessible?

Keep paths to doors and essential household equipment clear. Tell us about steps, low clearances or a vehicle that must be moved before loading can begin.

A LITTLE CLARITY BEFORE YOU CALL

Before opening the garage for a Mundelein pickup

Can I leave unknown containers inside a box of junk?

No. Identify and separate unknown products before arranging removal. Explain what you find so acceptance and handling can be confirmed; do not assume a general quote covers every material.

Will you dismantle an attached cabinet?

Describe how it is fixed in place and ask before booking. A moving or furniture-removal request does not automatically include demolition, plumbing or electrical work.

Can the items I keep go into a storage pod?

Storage-pod loading and unloading are among the business’s published services. Discuss the container location, access, inventory and timing when you call.
