Toss It helps Auburn University students, parents, landlords, and apartment managers remove unwanted furniture, mattresses, mini-fridges, boxes, and household items before lease and housing deadlines. Parents can arrange pickup remotely when a student has already left town.

Real Toss It Project

Helping an Auburn University Professor Move Across the Country

The before-and-after slider above shows a storage unit cleanout we completed for an Auburn University professor who accepted a new teaching position in California.

After relocating across the country, she still had a storage unit in Auburn filled with furniture, mattresses, boxes, and household belongings that needed to be emptied before she could close out the rental.

Because she had already moved, everything had to be coordinated remotely. We worked directly with the local storage facility to arrange access. Since the keys were already in California, the storage facility coordinated cutting the lock so we could complete the cleanout without requiring her to travel back to Alabama.

Once we gained access, we carefully removed every item from the storage unit, allowing her to close out the rental and focus on settling into her new position.

She was incredibly appreciative of how smoothly the process went and left us a wonderful review afterward.

This project is a great example of how Toss It helps Auburn University students, parents, faculty members, landlords, and property managers handle move-out projects, even when the customer has already moved hundreds or thousands of miles away.

Whether you're moving across town or across the country, we can coordinate directly with apartment offices, storage facilities, landlords, and property managers to make your move-out as simple and stress-free as possible.

What Auburn students commonly leave behind

  • Mattresses, box springs, and bed frames
  • Sofas, futons, and papasan chairs
  • Desks, dressers, bookshelves, and IKEA-style flat-pack furniture
  • Mini-fridges, microwaves, and small kitchen appliances
  • TVs, monitors, and gaming setups
  • Rugs, curtains, and lamps
  • Trash bags of unsorted clothes and pantry items

If it fits in an apartment or dorm room and you don't want to move it to your next place, we probably haul it.

Parent-arranged pickup from out of town

Every May and August, we handle dozens of Auburn move-outs where the student is already gone and the parents are three states away. Here's how it works:

  • Text photos of the unit + address to 334-521-2091
  • We confirm a firm quote and pickup window
  • You coordinate access with the leasing office, roommate, or a neighbor (we can help)
  • We send before/after photos so you never have to fly in
  • Payment by card, no need to be on-site

Apartment communities and multi-unit turnover

Auburn's off-campus market - The Standard, The Hub, 160 Ross, The Beacon, Evolve, The Grove, Lark, and dozens of privately owned houses near Wire Road and South College - all hit the same May and August turnover window. Toss It works directly with property managers on multi-unit pickup schedules, invoicing, and photo documentation. We can be onsite for 2 units or 40.

Fraternity, sorority, and off-campus house cleanouts

Greek houses and shared off-campus rentals often have the biggest end-of-year piles - years of accumulated furniture, common-area couches nobody wants to move, and abandoned personal items. We handle those in a single visit with the right crew and the right trailer.

Lease-end deadlines and honest scheduling

Auburn move-out weekends fill quickly. May graduation week and the early August pre-fall move-in window are our busiest days of the year. Book as early as you can confirm your date - waiting until the last week almost guarantees a scheduling squeeze.

Move-out checklist

  • Confirmed lease end-date or dorm move-out date
  • Photos of every large item + the pickup address texted to us
  • Access plan: keys, code, roommate, leasing office
  • Anything donated that you want us to route (with the recipient's address)
  • Payment method on file
  • Forwarding address for any invoice/receipt

Most cleanout jobs are priced based on how much space your items take up in our 7x14 dump trailer. We provide a free, no-obligation estimate before any work begins.

Frequently Asked Questions

+When should I schedule Auburn University move-out junk removal?
Auburn University move-out weekends fill our calendar quickly. We recommend booking as soon as your lease end-date or dorm move-out date is confirmed - typically 2–3 weeks out for spring move-out, longer for graduation weekend.
+Can parents arrange pickup from out of town?
Yes. This is one of the most common Auburn move-out situations we handle. We coordinate access with the leasing office or roommate, send before/after photos, and confirm removal by text - no one has to be in town.
+What items do you commonly remove after Auburn students move out?
Mattresses, box springs, sofas and futons, desks, mini-fridges, microwaves, TVs, bookshelves, rugs, and boxed household items. We haul furniture and bulk trash - not household hazardous items like paint or chemicals.
+Do you serve fraternity and sorority houses?
Yes. We handle end-of-year cleanouts for Greek houses, off-campus houses, and multi-unit apartment communities. Bulk pricing available for multi-bedroom or multi-unit projects.
+Can property managers book recurring pickups?
Yes. We work with apartment communities and property managers on scheduled turnover cleanouts across Auburn - including recurring service, invoicing, and photo documentation.
+Will Auburn University charge me if I leave items behind?
Auburn University residence policies typically require residents to remove personal items and trash at move-out, and charges can apply for abandoned items or excess trash. Confirm your specific hall's policy in the housing agreement - and let us handle the removal before deadline.
