Junk removal

We needed to quickly de-clutter a home we inherited to get it ready for renovations and eventually to move in. It involved heavy items like appliances and bulky furniture that were too much for my husband and I to handle on our own. Getting them to the curbside for the regular garbage pick-ups was not an option. Plus you can only put out so much each garbage day and only every two weeks. For us time was of the essence.
Booking online was convenient and the truck arrival was punctual. Two young men came to the rescue, assessed our job on site, gave us our cost list dependant on how big a truckload we would need and promptly started loading. They say they will do the removal for you, for example, emptying cupboards. I chose to have some of it already designated in areas just to be sure I remembered everything I wanted them to take although I did leave some of the higher cupboards for them. It doesn't hurt to re-check what you think are already empty compartments because I did forget to get them to take some pots and pans that I forgot to tell them about. Not a big deal considering how much they did take and also not their fault.
The online booking asks you to estimate how long you think your job will take. Do not worry about this if you think you are not sure. I thought I was way off on my estimate of 1.5 hours but they worked so efficiently I was amazed at how much they were able to accomplish in that time. When I mentioned to them the time choosing question I was asked on line they told me not to be too concerned about it as it is used more as a general guideline. They book their jobs with this in mind.
We're now close to moving in to our newly renovated home at which point we will now have to deal with selling our existing home. Something tells me I will be calling to arrange for another clear-out in the near future. And yes I will be gladly calling 1-800-GET JUNK again.

remove heavy junk from a property we were selling.

I've used them twice for the same property. The first time I called it was urgent to get the stuff removed that day. I called a student junk removal service who assured me they could do it and when the guys showed up they refused to do it that day. 1-800-GOT-JUNK sent a truck that day and the men removed it all (atruck load) in record time without complaint.

The second time they came out the truck was staffed by 2 slighter than average men. They did a good job but could not remove a steel fence post with a big hunk of concrete on it because it was too heavy for them. Maybe they should match the slighter guys with with bulkier guy. I described that it was an old chain link fence, posts 7 concrete. I will still use 1-800-GOT-JUNK again.
Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
If you've got especially heavy stuff make it extra clear to them so they send hefty guys.

removal and disposal of furniture

I had furniture including a sofa bed, table and cabinet to be removed and disposed of. 1 800 GOT JUNK was easy to book,and provided a reasonable 2 hour service window. The two men who came to remove the furniture were pleasant and courteous, and removed the furniture quickly.

I would use them again. I would recommend them.

Junk Removal

I had a terrible basement flood that ruined furniture, carpet, books, even drywall. It was a mess. 1-800-GOT-JUNK took everything away without complaint. I wouldn't have touched the stuff with a 10 foot pole, but these guys worked so quickly I couldn't believe it. The service was amazing, and easily worth what I paid. I recommend them to anyone.

Help clean out a house -- we're moving!

Moving 7x in 8 years keeps the household pretty lean, but this time we had 10 years of roots to dig through, with 2 kids +toys, +2 other amalgamated households, +files from a closed business and just stuff from our general pack-rat tendencies, as is human nature. Why pay movers to pack it, ship it, unpack it and watch it gather dust for another 10 years? Like who hasn't done that?

With the folks at 'Got Junk', we just pile our crap in a corner or at least identify it around the house -- they carry it out, throw it on their truck, haul it away and come back if you've got more and do it all over again until it's history. They're uniformed, courteous, helpful, patient, respectful, and extremely useful . . . and the price is fair. They respect the environment, will recycle and take their job seriously. Absolutely, no doubt, use them!

Leftovers from Garage Sale

I was downsizing from a 3 bedroom house to a small flat and had a garage sale. The leftovers were a problem, however, my son recommended 1-800-Got-Junk. These people are very professional - uniforms, good trucks. They are efficient, arrived on time, very polite, however, I thought it was expensive. If I had the the luxury of more time, I would have donated everything instead of having it go to landfill.

Hello Lin,
Thank you for using 1-800-GOT-JUNK? We do make every effort possible to donate and recycle what we remove from client’s homes and/or businesses. Often wer recycle and donate up to 60% of what we remove.There is a very good chance that much of what we removed did in fact get donated to various charities -- Goodwill and Salvation Army to name a few. Please consider using us again and please mention to our Truck Teams that you would like items diverted from land fill if possible.
Thank you David St. James – david.stjames@1800gotjunk.com

Junk Removal

After more than four months of home renovating our garage was filled with old plaster, lath, bathroom fixtures, concrete, etc. I had planned to dispose of this by myself but ran out of time and energy. I got quotes from similar companies and 1-800-got-junk was by far the most economical. They were courteous, on time and fast. Never thought I would use this kind of service but I am converted now. I fully recommend them.

Removal of miscellaneous junk

We arranged for Got Junk to remove some of our junk by using their website. It went so smoothly. They even called the day of our appt to see if we wanted them to come a bit earlier, which we did. No waiting around at all. Service was prompt and extremely friendly.

Removed junk from our garage and back yard

1 800 Got Junk showed up on time. They asked where the "Junk" was, loaded it themselves and before they left doubled checked to see if we forgot anything. We didn't lift a finger except to point at what had to go. Very polite and personable staff.

Clearing out contents from shed

I had a whole shed full of household and personal contents that I never used but kept around just so I could move them from one house to the next for several years. It finally got to the point where I decided it was time to let go of it all, so I called 1-800-Got-Junk and they took care of everything in a professional, speedy and cost-effect way. It worked out so well, I tore down the old shed and built a new one. I would use them again anytime and have already recommended them to several friends. Thanks guys.
