Hub City Hauling is based right here in Watertown, so we know Mount Auburn Street, the Square, and every tight side street off Arsenal and Belmont. Most Watertown jobs we book get handled the same day, often within a couple of hours.
What we haul
Homes, apartments, offices, and small commercial. One bulky item or a whole-property cleanout, we handle the lifting and the disposal.
One item or a whole property. Garages, basements, attics, apartments, offices, storage units, and estates cleared out fast.
Heavy, awkward, stuck on the third floor. We carry it down and haul it off so you never lift a thing.
Old units disconnected and removed, then recycled the right way under Massachusetts disposal rules.
Mattresses and box springs handled to MA recycling standards, so they stay out of the landfill.
Small structures torn out and hauled away in one visit. No second contractor needed.
Brush, debris, and outdoor clutter cleared so your yard is ready for the season.
Hub City Hauling is based right here in Watertown, which makes this our true home turf. We know Watertown Square and the snarl where Main, Mount Auburn, and Galen Streets all meet, the shops and apartments along Coolidge Square out toward the Belmont line, and the dense residential streets of the East End that blur into Newton and Brighton. From the mills converted along the river to the single-families up toward Belmont, we have carried junk out of just about every kind of building this town has.
Because we live and work here, you are not waiting on a crew coming in from far away. We cover the whole town, from the Arsenal Street corridor and the newer developments near the old Arsenal complex, to the tightly packed two-families off Mount Auburn, to the quieter pockets near Filippello Park and the Watertown-Cambridge line. Whether it is a condo turnover near the Square or a packed cellar in the East End, we are minutes away rather than a county over.
Watertown's housing mix shapes the work. The many two- and three-family homes mean a steady run of apartment cleanouts between tenants, basement clear-outs where decades of a family's belongings have piled up, and furniture removals up and down those narrow back staircases. The condos converted out of the old factory buildings along the river generate turnover cleanouts and single-piece furniture hauls when owners upgrade. We also handle plenty of garage cleanouts on the single-family streets toward Belmont and Waltham.
Estate cleanouts are a regular part of what we do here, too. Watertown has long-settled families, and when a longtime home changes hands, there is often a whole house to clear with care. We work room by room, set aside anything the family flags, route usable furniture and goods to donation, and leave the place empty and broom-clean for the sale or the next owner. From a single mattress off Arsenal Street to a full multi-floor cleanout near Coolidge Square, the load-based price keeps it predictable.
Watertown is not downtown Boston, but access still takes know-how, and we have it. Around Watertown Square and along Mount Auburn Street, parking is tight and traffic is constant, so we plan the timing of a pickup to grab a workable spot near your door without blocking the flow. The two- and three-family homes off the main drags often have narrow driveways and tight back staircases, which is exactly the kind of carry we handle every day without dinging your walls or railings.
On the denser East End streets, where homes sit close together and on-street parking fills up, a little coordination goes a long way, and knowing the town means we are not learning your block on the fly. For the larger single-family properties toward Belmont Hill and the Waltham line, access is usually easier, with driveways and yards we can pull close to. Either way, tell us about any tricky parking or a long carry when you book and we will come prepared with the right plan.
Being headquartered in Watertown is your biggest advantage. When you call or text, we are not dispatching a truck from across the region; we are often just minutes away, which is why same-day service is almost always realistic for a Watertown job booked in the morning. Closing on a sale near the Square, clearing a unit before a new tenant moves in, or finally tackling that basement before the weekend, we can frequently fit you in today or tomorrow with a real arrival window.
That proximity also means flexibility. If a cleanout turns out bigger than expected and needs a second load, being local makes a same-day return trip far easier than it would be for an out-of-town outfit. The short distance keeps things simple and keeps you from waiting around. Text a few photos to 617-319-4693, get an upfront price tied to the load, and in many cases we can have your Watertown space cleared the same day you reach out.
We keep as much as we can out of the landfill, and being local helps us do it well. Usable furniture, housewares, and goods from a Watertown cleanout go to donation so they stay in the community and in use rather than getting tossed. Metal items, old appliances, and electronics are routed to recyclers that handle them to Massachusetts standards, and yard and green waste from outdoor jobs is sent to be composted or mulched rather than buried.
This matters for the heavier and regulated items too. Mattresses and box springs, which Massachusetts bans from regular trash, get taken to a proper recycler, and refrigerators and freezers are handled so their refrigerant is recovered correctly. You do not need to learn Watertown's specific disposal rules, sort anything into separate piles, or make a trip to a drop-off yourself. We sort as we load and make the responsible call for every item that leaves your home.

FAQ
More often than not, yes. Watertown is our home base, so we are usually just minutes from your door, and a job booked in the morning can frequently be handled the same day. Call or text 617-319-4693 with what you have and your address near the Square, the East End, or anywhere in town, and we will give you a real arrival window rather than a vague all-day wait.
We price by how much your items fill the truck, starting at a quarter load from $149, a half load at $350, and a full load at $650. Heavy debris like concrete and dirt is priced by weight. Since we are based in Watertown, there is no travel fee here. Text a photo and we will give you a clear, upfront number before we ever arrive.
Absolutely, that is a big share of our local work. The narrow back staircases and tight driveways common in Watertown's multi-families are exactly what we are equipped for. We carry everything down by hand, protect your walls and railings, and handle apartment turnovers, basement clear-outs, and full cleanouts between tenants. Just let us know about stairs and parking when you book.
Yes, regularly. When a longtime Watertown home needs to be cleared, we work room by room with care, set aside anything the family wants to keep, and route usable items to local donation. We leave the home empty and broom-clean for a sale or the next owner. It is sensitive work, and being local lets us be flexible with timing around the family's needs.
We sort as we load. Usable furniture and goods go to local donation so they stay in the community. Metal, appliances, and electronics are recycled to Massachusetts standards, and green waste is composted or mulched. Mattresses go to a proper recycler, as state rules require. Only what cannot be reused or recycled heads to the transfer station, which keeps a real share of every load out of the landfill.
All of it. From Watertown Square and the Mount Auburn Street corridor to Coolidge Square near the Belmont line, the dense East End, the Arsenal Street area, and the single-family streets toward Belmont Hill and Waltham. Wherever you are in town, we are close by. We also serve neighboring Belmont, Newton, Cambridge, and Waltham with the same speed.
Booking is quick. Call or text 617-319-4693, send a photo or quick description, and we will give you an upfront, load-based price and a real arrival window. Since we are based right here in Watertown, we are often just minutes from the Square, the East End, or the Coolidge Square area, so same-day slots are common. We work seven days a week, including evenings, and we text when we are on the way so you are not left waiting around.
We take cash, all major cards, and mobile payments like Venmo and Zelle, due once the job is done and you are happy with the space. There is nothing to pay up front. If you need to cancel or reschedule, just call or text us with a reasonable heads-up and there is no fee. Being based in Watertown makes it easy to rebook your slot quickly, often the same day, so changing plans is rarely a hassle for either of us.
