Serving Every Quadrant: A Guide to Our Cedar Rapids Neighborhoods
Cedar Rapids is a city of distinct character, from the historic charm of Wellington Heights to the rapid expansion out by the Eastern Iowa Airport. At Around Town Junk Removal, we don’t just drive through these neighborhoods; we work in them every day. We understand the specific challenges of clearing out a narrow attic in a turn-of-the-century home versus hauling construction debris from a new build in the suburbs.
We provide full-service junk removal across the entire metro area. Below is a detailed look at the neighborhoods, districts, and communities we serve, and the types of projects we frequently handle in each.
Welcome
Northeast Cedar Rapids (NE Side)
The NE side is a blend of bustling commercial districts and quiet, established family neighborhoods. Our trucks are often spotted near Collins Road and First Avenue.
- Bowman Woods: Technically straddling the line between Cedar Rapids and Marion, this is a prime area for us. We frequently help homeowners here with garage cleanouts and upgrading furniture.
- Noelridge Park & Golf Course Area: In these established neighborhoods, we often assist with yard waste removal and clearing out older sheds that have seen better days.
- Kenwood Park: Known for its beautiful, older architecture. We specialize in navigating the tighter driveways here to help with renovation debris and basement cleanouts.
- Council Street Corridor: With the mix of apartments and single-family homes, we do a lot of mattress disposal and move-out junk removal in this area.

Southeast Cedar Rapids (SE Side)
Rich in history and diversity, the SE side ranges from downtown urban living to the quiet streets near Mount Vernon Road.
- Wellington Heights: One of the city’s most historic treasures. We work with many property owners here who are restoring these classic homes, hauling away lath and plaster, old carpeting, and remodeling debris.
- Bever Park Area: This leafy, scenic neighborhood is full of “forever homes.” We often help long-time residents with downsizing and estate cleanouts, treating every item with respect.
- Oakhill Jackson & NewBo (New Bohemia): As this area revitalizes, we are on the ground helping clear out commercial spaces and residential lofts. We handle appliance removal for the older homes and packaging removal for the new condos.
- Rompot (The SE Quadrant Edge): A quiet residential pocket where we frequently pick up old hot tubs and broken swing sets.
Northwest Cedar Rapids (NW Side)
From the riverfront to the bluffs, the NW side offers some of the best views and strongest communities in the city.
- Time Check: A neighborhood defined by resilience. We are proud to serve residents here with general household junk removal and storm debris cleanup.
- Stoney Point: A popular suburban area with larger lots. We are often called here for large item pickup, such as sectional sofas, treadmills, and riding lawn mowers that no longer run.
- Ellis Park / Harbor Area: Whether it’s clearing out a boathouse or decluttering a garage near the golf course, we help keep this recreational hub clean.
- Cherry Hill: We service the homes surrounding the aquatic center and park, often helping families clear out clutter to make room for new renovations.
Southwest Cedar Rapids (SW Side)
The fastest-growing part of town, stretching from the historic Czech Village out to the open spaces of the Prairie school district.
- Czech Village: We help business owners and residents in this tourist-friendly district keep their properties clear of debris and unwanted items.
- Cedar Hills: A classic mid-century neighborhood. We do a lot of basement cleanouts here, helping residents get rid of decades of accumulated items.

- Fay Clark Park Area: Serving the residential streets west of Edgewood Road, handling everything from e-waste recycling to furniture donation drop-offs.

Kevin and Jay really make yard waste removal easy and fast. They respond quickly whenever we call on them. We’re in a part of Cedar Rapids that makes it a chore to go the dump and they’re a useful and professional alternative to us hauling junk ourselves. Highly recommend.

I called a few companies prior to Around Town and everyone was extremely expensive, long wait time or just couldn’t get anyone to answer. When I called Around Town Junk Removal, I got an answer right away with a reasonable response and quick pick up. The guys were very professional and quick to load up our extremely heavy cast iron tub we needed gone! Without a doubt if we have a heavy load needing to go, they will be first on our list to call!!

Junk Removal Cedar Rapids Neighborhoods – Frequently Asked Questions
Whether you are located near Kirkwood Community College, right next to Lindale Mall, or tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac in Stoney Point, Around Town Junk Removal is ready to help.
- Scheduling is fast and simple. You can book online in minutes or call/text our team to set up a time that fits your day.
- When you book, we'll confirm the service window, inventory the items to be removed, and estimate the volume to determine the right truck size.
- We offer same-day (if scheduled before noon) or next-day slots in Cedar Rapids and surrounding areas, with flexible times to minimize disruption.
- Our pricing is straightforward and upfront, based on the volume of junk and the type of items, plus any special handling if needed (heavy items, appliances, or electronics).
- You’ll typically see a transparent price range after a quick in-ride bin estimate or a brief photo assessment, with no surprise fees after the job.
- We offer all-inclusive, guaranteed quotes before we start, and we only bill for the actual volume removed.
- What affects price:
- Item type (bulk junk vs. heavy items like appliances or furniture)
- Space required in our truck (cubic yards or load size)
- Accessibility (stairs, long walk, gated entrances)
- Clear the area: Move items to a central, accessible spot if possible (garage, driveway, or main room) to speed up the crew’s work.
- Separate items if helpful: Put like items together (couches, mattresses, electronics) to simplify sorting and disposal.
- Yard and access: Ensure the path to the removal area is clear; note any stairs, tight corners, or elevator limitations in advance.
- Measurements and photos: If you’re unsure about volume, take a quick photo or note the number of items to help us size the truck.
- Prepare for the crew: If you need us to disconnect appliances, please provide any necessary power or plumbing access details or arrange for an on-site technician.
- What we handle:
- Plain junk, old furniture, appliances, electronics, cardboard, and renovation debris. We also manage proper disposal or donation drop-off as appropriate.
