Expert Furniture Removal for Highland Park Properties

Highland Park's tree-lined streets and historic homes - from the prestigious Ravine neighborhoods to estates near Moraine Path - often contain large, heavy furniture pieces that require professional removal. Many Highland Park properties are older, with narrow staircases, hardwood floors, and tight doorways that demand careful handling. Highland Park's HOA regulations and village permits require proper disposal documentation, which Cortes Junk Removal provides on every job. We understand the unique challenges of removing furniture from 1920s-1950s homes with curved walls and uneven floors common in this Lake County community.

Our furniture removal process in Highland Park starts with a free, no-obligation estimate within 24 hours of your call. We dispatch a two-person crew in an enclosed truck within 3-5 business days, disassemble and remove furniture, protect your floors and walls with blankets and cardboard, and haul everything away within 2-3 hours for typical residential jobs. Highland Park residents appreciate that we recycle or donate usable pieces to local charities - in 2023, we diverted over 18 tons of Highland Park furniture from landfills. We handle everything: old couches, mattresses, dressers, desks, leather recliners, dining tables, and entertainment centers. Disposal fees are included in our flat-rate quote; most Highland Park furniture removal projects cost between $250-$800 depending on volume and accessibility.

Recent Project

Recent Furniture Removal Project in Highland Park, Illinois

In June 2024, we removed furniture from a 3,800-square-foot Colonial revival home in the Ravine subdivision of Highland Park. The homeowner was downsizing and needed to clear a formal dining room (heavy walnut table and eight chairs), a leather sofa, three dressers, and two bedroom sets from the second floor. Our crew carefully navigated the narrow Victorian staircase and curved hallway, disassembled each piece on-site, and completed the full removal in 2 hours and 45 minutes. The total cost was $580 including disposal; three furniture pieces were donated to a Waukegan charity and a tax deduction receipt was provided to the homeowner for their records.
