Junk haulers charge a few hundred bucks to remove a pinball machine. Disposal fees pile on top of that. Meanwhile, that “junk” in your basement is probably worth real money to us. We remove it for free and hand you cash before we leave.

Most people assume the only way to get rid of an old pinball machine is to pay someone to haul it off. That's because most removal services treat every large item the same way. We don't.
If you're dealing with an unwanted pinball machine, you're not alone. These are the most common situations we get called for.
A parent or family member left behind a pinball machine and now it's sitting in a house you're trying to clean out. You don't play pinball, you don't want to store it, and the last thing you want is to pay someone to take it away. We'll come grab it and cut you a check for your trouble.
The machine was your ex's. You're keeping the house, they got the car, and this 280-pound reminder is still in your basement. We take it away and you never have to think about it again.
Moving to a smaller place and the new house doesn't have room. Call us before the movers.
Big purge, big project, and the pinball machine is the one thing you have no idea what to do with.
You're a landlord. Previous tenant left a pinball machine behind when they moved out. We'll clear it out so you can get the unit rent-ready without eating the disposal cost.
Your real estate agent wants the house decluttered before listing. Staging photos don't look great with a dusty old pinball machine in the finished basement, and you don't want to move it to the new place either. We'll handle it cleanly and leave the space empty and ready to show. No scuff marks. No delays in your listing timeline.
You bought a project machine thinking you'd fix it up yourself. Now it's been in the garage for two years, half-disassembled, and your spouse has had enough. We'll take the whole thing, parts included, and pay for it. Even partial machines have value.
Removal is simple. Four steps from the phone call to the moment your basement has one less thing in it.
Send us a couple of pictures of the machine. Front, back, sides. Whatever you can manage. If it has a model name or title on it, even better. Stairs and the removal path help us plan ahead too.
Based on the photos, we tell you what we can pay. No obligation, no sales pressure. If the machine is in rough shape, we're still interested. Non-working machines still have real value in parts and cabinets.
Pick a day and time that works for you. Weekdays, weekends, evenings. We travel across Long Island, NY, NJ, CT, and PA. Local removals usually get scheduled within the week.
We bring the truck, dolly, blankets, and straps. Cash or check in your hand before the machine leaves the house. You don't lift a thing. Removal is completely free.
People ask this on every call. If junk haulers charge for removal, how can we offer it for free? Here's the honest answer.
The questions people ask most when they're ready to get a pinball machine out of their house.
Removal is free. Local and regional pickups across Long Island, NY, NJ, CT, and PA don't cost you a thing. For extended distance, we quote any fee upfront before we come out. No surprise charges at your door, ever.
We still want it. Broken machines, missing parts, water damage, cigarette-smoked basements, the whole deal. Condition affects the offer, but it rarely takes us from paying you to charging you. See our Non-Working Machines page for more.
Local removals on Long Island usually get scheduled within a few days. Regional jobs in NY, NJ, and CT get scheduled within a week. If you have a hard deadline like a closing date or an estate timeline, tell us upfront and we'll work around it.
No. A lot of our callers don't. Send photos and we'll tell you what you've got. Model names and manufacturers are usually printed on the backglass or the side of the cabinet. We'll identify it for you either way.
We do this constantly. Stair-climber dollies, corner protectors, and blanket wraps handle the tight turns. Your walls stay intact. For the full equipment breakdown, see our Pickup Service page.
Pinball is our main focus, but we handle arcade cabinets on a case-by-case basis. Call and tell us what you've got. If we can take it, we will. If we can't, we'll usually know someone who can.
If you'd rather skip the offer and just have it gone, we can do that too. But almost every machine is worth something. Most people are surprised when we tell them what theirs is worth. Let us give you a number before you say no.
Multiple machines are easier for us, not harder. One trip, one truck, one payment. If you're handling an estate or a collection, our Estate Buyouts page covers that process in detail.
