Junk removal in Huntsville, Ontario
Ravens Ridge Junk Removal is a South River business that provides junk removal in Huntsville, Ontario. Huntsville has curbside collection, but it is for bags: one clear bag a week in summer, tags for anything over that, and no large items at the curb at all. A couch, a mattress or a garage full of old gear means a trip to the Stisted Transfer Station and a fee per piece. Or you text a photo, get a quote, and Ravens Ridge loads it and takes it away.

How much does junk removal cost in Huntsville?
Ravens Ridge Junk Removal quotes every Huntsville job from your photos, with a firm price for small items and a quote confirmed on site for bigger jobs. Four things decide it.
What it is
Furniture, mattresses and patio sets are bulky but easy. Old docks, wet lumber and scrap metal are heavy and take more handling.
How it comes out
A walk-out garage on a flat lot is simple. A basement, a third-floor condo on Main Street, or a lake lot with a long path down to the water all make the carry longer, which changes the price.
The drive from South River
Huntsville is straight down Highway 11. Travel is shown as its own line on the quote, so you see it before you book.
Photograph everything at once, including the shed and the corner of the garage. One quote for the lot is better value than two visits.
How the quote works
Small items that a photo shows clearly get a firm price. For anything bigger, your photos give a detailed quote, and the final price is confirmed on site before anything is loaded. Pricing is by how much there is and what makes it harder to move, never by the hour. Travel is shown as its own line on the quote, so you see it before you book.
These change the price, so put them in your message or your photos:
- Upper floors, basements and stairs
- A long carry, for example 200 feet from the parking spot to the door
- Heavy material, such as concrete, soil, shingles or wet lumber
- The photos must show everything. A pile that is deeper than it looks is priced as what it is
If there is more on site than the photos showed, the extra is priced before it is loaded. If you would rather not go ahead, Ravens Ridge leaves and you owe nothing.
Junk removal vs Huntsville curbside and the Stisted Transfer Station: which is best?
In Huntsville, the District of Muskoka collects bags at the curb. Everything else goes to the transfer station.
| Ravens Ridge junk removal | Curbside collection | Stisted Transfer Station yourself | |

| What it takes | Furniture, mattresses, whole rooms and outbuildings | Clear bags of household garbage only. No large items or appliances | Most things, charged by the piece or by weight |

| Lifting and hauling | Done for you | You carry the bags to the curb | Your vehicle, your lifting |
| Cost | A quote from your photos, travel as its own line | One bag a week in summer. Tags are $8 a bag over that | Mattress $30, furniture $34 a piece, fridge or freezer $28, $15 minimum |
| Best for | Anything too big, too heavy or too much for the car | Kitchen garbage | A car load, if you have the time and the vehicle |
How waste works in Huntsville
The District of Muskoka collects garbage at the curb in Huntsville. Garbage has to be in clear bags, with a limit of one bag a week in summer or two bags every second week in winter for homes with green bin service. Extra bags need a tag at $8 each, or five for $35, up to ten bags on a collection day. The District says plainly that it does not collect large items or appliances at the curb.
Furniture, mattresses and appliances go to the Stisted Transfer Station at 178 Stisted Landfill Road, Huntsville. No card or pass is needed. In summer it opens seven days a week, and in winter it closes on Sundays. The 2026 fee guide charges $30 for a mattress or box spring, $34 for a piece of furniture at a site without a scale, $28 for a fridge, freezer or air conditioner, and $255 a tonne for general waste, with a $15 minimum on any chargeable load.
Huntsville had a population of 21,147 in the 2021 Census. It is the western gateway to Algonquin Provincial Park, with Fairy Lake, Lake Vernon and Mary Lake inside the town limits.
