I’ve used College HUNKS for at least 3 junk removals now. I will continue to use them despite there being cheaper options out there. Their organization and attention to detail are worth it! Landen and Jalin were my team today and they were great! Super fast, careful and communicative!

Can't say enough good things about Zane & Mike, they were awesome. Professional, personable and very good at what they do. No stopping or standing around, they get it done!

Westerville College Hunks Zane and Jordan did an amazing job with my move. They were very professional, arrived on time and had good communication throughout the process. They were able to accommodate having a couch go to a separate address, and all items were moved carefully and arrived without any damage. Definitely the easiest move ever!
