Junk Removal in Dorchester, Ontario
Dorchester is about 20 minutes east of London and sits right beside the 401, which makes it one of the easier runs we do. Junk removal there is priced exactly as it is in the city: a flat $49.99 for a single item, or $175 to $700 depending on how much of our 20-yard trailer the job fills. Dorchester is a commuter village with mature lots and deep garages, so most jobs here come in bigger than people expect.

What We Haul Out of Dorchester
Mature lots, deep garages and full basements. These are the loads Thames Centre actually calls us for.
Basement Clear-Outs
Dorchester lots are mature and the houses have had one family in them for a long time. Basements here rarely turn out to be quarter-trailer jobs.
Detached Garage & Workshop Clear-Outs
Deeper garages than a city lot allows, often with a workbench and forty years of offcuts behind it.
Furniture & Mattresses
Sectionals, bed frames and box springs carried up from a basement or down from a second floor.
Appliances & Chest Freezers
Fridges, freezers, washers and dryers unhooked at the appliance and taken for metal recycling.
Hot Tubs & Above-Ground Pools
Drained, cut down where they stand and hauled with the skirting, steps and surrounding deck.
Deck & Shed Demolition
Torn down and taken in the same visit. Mature back gardens here often have a shed that has outlived its roof.
Estate & Downsizing Clear-Outs
A long-held family home emptied room by room, with anything you flag set aside before we start.
Yard Waste & Brush
Windfall from the big trees, hedge cuttings and the brush pile at the back fence.
Emptying a House Somebody Lived In
A lot of Dorchester work is a downsize or an estate: one family, one house, a long time. That job has its own rules.
Nothing goes without a yes
Anything you flag is set aside before the room is touched. If we find something that looks like it matters and nobody is there to ask, it comes out to the driveway rather than into the trailer.
You get the number first
A whole Dorchester house is usually a full 20-yard trailer at $700, sometimes two loads for a larger property with a workshop. We say which before we start, not after the first trailer is full.
At your pace, not ours
Some families want it done in a morning. Others want a room at a time over a fortnight. Both are fine, and the price does not change because it took three visits.
You do not have to be there
With gate or lockbox access we can do the whole thing and send photos of the cleared rooms afterwards, with payment by e-transfer. Common for families handling a Dorchester property from another city.
Frequently Asked Questions
What people in London ask us most about this service. Anything not covered here, call or text and ask.
How much does junk removal cost in Dorchester, Ontario?
Junk removal in Dorchester costs a flat $49.99 for a single item up to 50 lbs, or between $175 and $700 for a larger job depending on how much of the 20-yard trailer it fills: $175 for a quarter, $350 for a half, $525 for three quarters and $700 for a full load. Those are the same numbers LOW Price charges in London, with no travel surcharge for the 20 minute run east. We price by volume rather than by weight or by the hour, so a basement full of heavy junk costs the same as a basement full of boxes. Text a photo to (519) 615-2377 and you get an exact figure back rather than an estimate to worry about. For a sense of scale in Dorchester: a single room or a garage bay is usually a quarter to a half trailer, a full basement is commonly a three-quarter load, and a whole house being emptied for a sale or a downsize is a full trailer and occasionally two. We give you the load count before anything is carried out, not after the first trailer is full.
Can you do same-day junk removal in Dorchester?
Often, yes. Dorchester is about 20 minutes east of our London base with the 401 doing most of the driving, which makes it one of the more reliable same-day towns on our list. We work 7 AM to 9 PM seven days a week, so evening and weekend pickups are possible as well. The honest limit is the existing schedule rather than the distance: ring at 8 AM and the odds are good, ring at 6 PM on a Saturday and they are not. Call or text (519) 615-2377 and we will tell you immediately what we can commit to instead of pencilling in a window we might miss.
Do you charge a travel fee to come to Dorchester?
No. Dorchester is charged exactly what a London address is charged: $49.99 for a single item and $175, $350, $525 or $700 by trailer fraction. There is no travel line, no fuel surcharge and no rural minimum load. The drive is built into how the pricing works rather than added at the bottom of the quote, and at roughly 20 minutes on the 401 there would be very little to add anyway. What distance does affect is scheduling rather than cost, and Dorchester is close enough that it schedules much like a job inside the city. Call (519) 615-2377 for a firm number.
Why do Dorchester basements come in bigger than expected?
Because the housing stock is mature and the lots are generous. A lot of Dorchester homes have had the same family in them for decades, with a full basement and a detached garage or workshop to fill, and neither gets emptied when the kids leave. The practical result is that a basement someone describes on the phone as a quarter trailer very often turns out to be a half or three quarters once we are actually carrying things up the stairs. That is not a problem, it just means a photo is worth sending so the quote is right first time. Send a couple of angles to (519) 615-2377 and we will price the real volume.
Do you cover Nilestown, Putnam and the rest of Thames Centre?
Yes. When LOW Price is running to Dorchester we cover the surrounding Thames Centre communities on the same terms, including Nilestown, Putnam and the concession roads between them. Thorndale, a little further north, has its own page. Rural properties, outbuildings and long laneways are all routine, and rural clear-outs tend to be full-trailer jobs at $700 rather than small pickups. If you are on a sideroad rather than a village street, mention the laneway and how firm the ground is when you call, because a loaded 20-yard trailer needs somewhere solid to sit. Call (519) 615-2377 with the address.
Will you take a hot tub or above-ground pool from a Dorchester garden?
Yes, and mature Dorchester back gardens throw up plenty of both. The crew drains the tub or pool, cuts it down where it sits so it can be carried out in pieces by hand rather than dragged across the lawn, and takes the skirting, steps, liner and any surrounding decking in the same load. Most hot tub removals price as a half trailer at $350, or three quarters at $525 when a deck comes out too. Leftover chemicals are the one thing we are not licensed to carry, so set those aside for a household hazardous waste depot. Text a photo of the tub and the route to your driveway to (519) 615-2377.
