The quantity
A lone recliner from a house off Bowes Street is a small load. A waterfront cottage being emptied before a sale is a large one, and may take more than one trip.

How much does junk removal cost in Parry Sound?
Ravens Ridge Junk Removal prices each Parry Sound job from your photos, with travel shown as its own line. Four things shape it.
The items themselves
Furniture, mattresses and heavy household goods are the pieces that weekly collection leaves behind, and they are the slowest to move safely.
How it comes out
A ground-floor door onto a driveway is straightforward. Stairs up from Georgian Bay, a long path, or a cottage with limited road access all make the carry longer, which changes the price.
The length of the trip
Parry Sound is one of the longer trips Ravens Ridge makes. The quote shows that travel as its own line.
Because of the distance, it makes sense to send everything in one go. Photograph every item and every room you want cleared.
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 the Parry Sound transfer station: which is best?
The Town of Parry Sound gives each household a little help with large items once a year. Beyond that, it is up to you.
| Ravens Ridge junk removal | Using the transfer station yourself | |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly garbage | Not what Ravens Ridge is for | Two free bags at the curb, and up to four more with $5 tags |
| Large items | Carried out of the house and loaded | Your vehicle, to 57 MacFarlane Street |
| How often | Whenever you book | One free transfer station coupon per household each year |
| Lifting | Done for you | Yours, at both ends |
| Best for | Several large items, whole rooms and cottage clear-outs | One tagged item a year, if you can move it |
What the town collects, and what it leaves to you
The Town of Parry Sound provides weekly curbside pick-up of garbage. A single home is allowed two free bags, plus up to four more bags with prepaid tags at $5 each. There is no curbside program for bulky items. Those go to the town transfer station at 57 MacFarlane Street, and every resident receives one free transfer station coupon a year for items that need tags. Check the town's site for the transfer station's current hours and fees before you go.
Neighbouring McDougall runs its own transfer station at 8 Municipal Drive, for McDougall residents only. Its posted hours show it closed on Wednesday and Thursday, and its fee page sets a minimum charge of $9.00 on loads under 46 kg.
One free coupon covers one problem item. It does not cover a basement, and it does nothing about getting a sleeper sofa up the stairs and into a vehicle that can carry it.
Town of Parry Sound and Municipality of McDougall details checked against their websites on September 21, 2026. Highway 124 details from the Ontario Highway 124 article on Wikipedia. Rules and fees change, so confirm with your municipality.
