East Passyunk
The Avenue is one of the best restaurant strips in the country, wrapped in blocks of tight two-story brick rows. When a kitchen closes or remodels, or a rowhome finally clears its basement, we haul it out at one flat photo-quoted price — coolers and fixtures off the Avenue, furniture and boxes out of the rows. One-way streets and no driveways are our problem, not yours. No PA sales tax on the service.
Restaurant row and the rows behind it
East Passyunk runs on two rhythms. There's the Avenue — the diagonal restaurant corridor of Passyunk Square, packed with BYOBs, bars, cafés, and shops, where turnover is a fact of life: a concept closes, a new operator moves in, a kitchen gets gutted and rebuilt. And there's the residential grid around it — trendy young owners and renters in tight two-story brick rowhomes with narrow stairs and no driveways. We're set up for both, and both come down to the same flat, photo-quoted promise: you show us the space, we give you one number, and we carry it out.
On the commercial side that means restaurant and bar clear-outs — reach-in coolers, prep tables, booths, shelving, and fixtures pulled fast so the next operator can start, often scheduled off-hours so we're not in the way of service. On the residential side it's the everyday South Philly work: a basement or whole-home cleanout, a move-out, an old couch and mattress that won't fit down the stairs without a crew. One flat number covers the labor, the truck, the drive, and disposal — no hourly meter, no day-of surprises, and no PA sales tax, since hauling is a non-taxable service here.
What we clear on East Passyunk
- Restaurant & bar FF&E — coolers, freezers, prep stations, booths, chairs, hoods, and signage on a closing or remodel deadline.
- Small-business & retail turnover — full shop clear-outs along the Avenue and the side streets.
- Rowhouse basement cleanouts — narrow-stair carry-outs from the two-story Passyunk Square homes, up and out the front.

- Single heavy items — a sectional, a fridge, a washer/dryer, or a bar's worth of stools in one flat-priced trip.

Can the city handle a restaurant clear-out?
No — and this is the gap East Passyunk operators run into. The city's curbside bulk program is residential-only: two items on a home's trash day, or a 311 appliance appointment for houses of six units or fewer. A business gets none of that; the city directs commercial properties to use a private hauler. So a restaurant emptying a kitchen of coolers, prep tables, and booths has no municipal option at all — and even a homeowner clearing a full basement isn't going to do it two items a week up their own stairs.
We're the private hauler that fills both gaps: same-day, inside the building, as many items as it takes, one flat price. For the Avenue we schedule around service; for the rows we carry it up and out and you're done in an afternoon.
East Passyunk access, handled
- One-way streets & the diagonal grid — we position the truck, keep the carry short, and stay out of the block's way.
- Narrow rowhouse stairs, no driveway — everything comes out the front; no stairs or no-driveway surcharge.
- Off-hours for the Avenue — early-morning or between-service clear-outs so we're not fighting a lunch or dinner crowd.
- Donation + recycling routing — Goodwill, Habitat ReStore, and St. Vincent de Paul for usable pieces; metal, refrigeration, and e-waste recycled.
When East Passyunk calls us
It's the restaurateur handing back the keys or gutting for a new concept, the landlord turning over an apartment above the shops, the young couple who bought a rowhome and inherited the last owner's basement, and the longtime family finally clearing the cellar before a sale. Whatever the space, it's one set of photos, one flat number, and a crew that carries it out — restaurant or rowhouse, same honest price.
What East Passyunk customers say
"Closed our BYOB on the Avenue and had two days to empty the kitchen — coolers, prep tables, the whole bar. They came in early, flat price off photos, cleared it before the new tenant's build-out. Total pros."
"Bought a rowhome off Passyunk Square and the basement was full of the last owner's stuff. Narrow stairs, no driveway, one-way street — none of it slowed them down. Carried it all up and out, one flat number."
"Just needed a sectional and an old fridge gone from my row on Tasker. Priced it from a photo, showed up next day, in and out. No tax, no surprises. Easy call."
