A great service that was efficient, painless and friendly. Dirrick and Mike got the job done quickly and when my awkwardly long couch seemed to be stuck in my doorway, they managed to get it out with not a scratch to be seen. Highly recommend!

We used Junk King to haul away some broken furniture . They came same day and were done in 37 minutes. Tim and Mike were great. I know it seems expensive, but the convenience, of it is worth all the hassle.

Had a very good experience with Junk King! They were on time and did an excellent job at cleaning out the 2 rooms that were a hoarder rooms. I was so embarrassed by what was left behind by someone else and they were non judgemental as I was emotional about it. I will definitely use them again and recommend them to…
