Kitchen table removal in Levittown, PA, with a single chair thrown in, usually lands on the minimum charge at Longship Junk Removal of Levittown: one-eighth of a truck load, $150. Our crew carries the table out, so the lifting isn’t on you. The price is confirmed before anything moves.
What to know
The smallest job we price is one-eighth of a load, and it costs $150.
That price follows the space your items take on the truck, not a head count of furniture.
You don’t need measurements. A few phone photos can do the same job.
If $150 feels like a lot for one table, there are other routes, and some are free.
Seniors and veterans get 10% off. Ask whether it applies to the minimum when you book.
What It Costs to Remove a Kitchen Table and Chair in Levittown, PA
A round kitchen table and one chair is a two-item job, and it sits at the bottom of our price list. Here is how that floor works and why it exists.
The $150 Minimum Explained
We price by load size. The smallest slice we sell is one-eighth of a truck, which is $150, and a table plus a chair is the kind of job that fits inside it. Fewer items don’t push the number lower, because the truck still has to roll, the crew still has to show up, and the load still has to be hauled and sorted.
A recent caller asked about exactly this job and hung up after hearing the figure. Fair enough. Nobody had told her what the $150 covered, so we’re doing that here.
Our rule is simple. You get one upfront price before we load anything, and that quote is the most you pay.
Does the Table’s Weight Change the Price?
On that call, the quote was tied to how much truck space the job takes. It wasn’t tied to pounds. A solid oak table and a lighter one of the same size are treated alike for that reason. If weight is a worry, ask us when you book and we’ll confirm how your specific piece is priced.
A heavy table is a reason to hire help. It isn’t a reason to expect a bigger bill.
What “One-Eighth of a Load” Actually Looks Like
It’s a small slice of the truck, a corner of the bed rather than a full stack. One round table and one chair is a typical fit.
We won’t give you cubic yards or square feet here, because we’d rather measure your actual pile than guess from a chart. What we can say is that the crew judges the space when they quote, and that judgment is what sets the price. Small extras may share the same slice. Big ones may not.
Why Table Size Matters (and Why We Ask for Dimensions)
A round table takes up more space than people expect, because the tabletop’s diameter is what eats the room. That’s why our first question is about size. It’s not a trick, and it’s how the job gets priced fairly.
Can’t find a tape measure, or can’t lift the thing to flip it over? Skip the measuring. Send a few photos, or call us at (267) 609-9327 and describe it. A free quote from photos works for small jobs too.
Before you call for a quote
How to Make a Minimum-Priced Pickup Worth It
If you’re paying the minimum anyway, look around the house first. Small items may fit in the same one-eighth slice, so the trip does more than clear one table.
An extra chair or a stool
A small bookshelf or end table
A mattress or box spring (we handle mattress and box-spring disposal as its own item)
A box of old electronics such as a TV, monitor, or printer, since e-waste can’t go in curbside trash in PA
How much fits is the crew’s call at quote time. Mention everything you’re considering when you ask for the price, because an add-on mentioned after loading starts a new conversation. Tell us up front, and the number we quote is the number you pay.
Other Options If $150 Feels High for One Table
It might be. If the table is in decent shape and you have a few weeks, other routes can cost less. They also cost more effort, and that’s the trade-off.

One firm opinion: don’t try to move a heavy table alone down stairs. Backs and banisters both lose.
What Happens on Pickup Day
You point at the table and the chair. Our uniformed, background-checked crew carries both out, from a kitchen, a basement, or a third floor, and you don’t lift a thing.
We lay down floor and doorway protection first. When the truck is loaded, we sweep up.
Levittown houses, whether Ranchers, Levittowners, or Colonials, were built compact, and tight doorways and short turns come with the territory. Tell us about those when you quote and we’ll plan for them.
As for where the furniture goes, we donate what’s usable and recycle the rest. We don’t issue donation receipts.
When a Table and Chair Turn Into a Bigger Job
Sometimes the table is just the first thing. A full dining set, a garage shelf, or a basement’s worth of old furniture moves the job up in load fractions, and the price moves with it. We’ll lay out the exact figure before we start, and it stays the maximum you pay.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to remove one kitchen table and one chair?
The minimum charge is $150, which covers up to one-eighth of a truck load. A table and a chair typically fit inside that. The final price is confirmed before we start loading, and it won’t go up afterward.
What does “one-eighth of a load” mean?
It’s one-eighth of the truck’s capacity, a small corner of the bed. A round kitchen table and a chair is a typical example. The crew judges the space at quote time, so your exact fit is confirmed before the price is set.
Do I need to know my table’s dimensions to get a price?
No. Measurements are helpful, but a description (round, roughly how wide, wood or glass) plus a couple of photos usually works for a quote. We’d rather see it than guess.
Does a heavier table cost more to remove?
The quote we gave was set by the space your items take on the truck, not by their weight. Heavy pieces are exactly what the crew is there to carry. If it’s unusually dense, mention it when you book.
Can I add more items without paying more?
Possibly. Small extras like another chair may fit within the same one-eighth slice, depending on their size. The crew decides at quote time, so list everything you want gone before the price is locked.
Is there a discount for seniors or veterans?
Yes, we offer 10% off for seniors and veterans. Ask whether it applies to the $150 minimum when you call, and we’ll confirm the exact price before loading begins.
What happens to the table after you take it?
We donate usable furniture and recycle what’s left. We don’t offer donation receipts, and we don’t promise a particular destination for any one piece.
Can you take the table from a basement or upstairs room?
Yes. The crew carries items out from any floor or room, with floor and doorway protection in place. Let us know about stairs and narrow turns when you ask for the quote.
