JUNKED: Powered By Veterans at a glance

Customers consistently highlight punctuality, efficient service, and fair pricing for debris removal and office cleanouts. The company is noted for clear communication, quick scheduling, and professional crews who often arrive early. One recurring criticism involves a significant price increase after the initial driveway estimate, which one reviewer described as bait and switch tactics.
