SECOND TIME USING JUNKLUGGERS: We once again hired Junkluggers, and they knocked it out of the park. Super quick to get a date for pickup, the owner even showed up to help, and the team were in and out quickly. I highly recommend them! FIRST TIME USING JUNKLUGGERS: JunkLuggers did a great job!

We contacted the company with a list of stuff to be moved and removed. I sent them the information and they came out and did everything we asked them to do. They were on time prompt and the vest service for moving and removing stuff and the price was very reasonable.

I utilize Camo Crew for my business. They provide a much needed service at my client homes. I choose Camo Crew because they are professional, friendly and neat. I also like that they make sure donations make it to partners like Habitat for Humanity. Camo has managed everything from simple sofa removals to jobs requiring full PPE.

How we grade

Satisfaction (54%) — Recency-weighted star average (2-year half-life), shrunk toward the category mean by review volume; the company’s own lifetime average as the prior; absolute: 4.0★ = 0, 5★ = 100.

Reliability (24%) — How rarely jobs go badly: share of 1–2★ reviews — 60% the last 24 months (or the 20 newest if fewer), 40% all-time; 0% = 100, 15%+ = 0; the category percentile can only raise it.

Craft & service (penalty, up to −10) — Google review highlights: Quality, Professionalism, Responsiveness, Punctuality — how rarely reviewers flag them as a negative, per review since highlights began; 0% = 100, 5%+ = 0. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in — clean highlights are the norm, not a bonus.

Value (14%) — Customers’ own price verdicts (Great / Reasonable vs Overpriced) and Value highlights; 65% absolute (all “reasonable” ≈ 80, “great” = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.

Momentum (penalty, up to −10) — Penalises only a real slide: last-12-month average below lifetime (−0.5★ = 0). Still 4.8★+ over the last year, or steady/improving = 100. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in.

Replies to reviews (7%) — How often the owner publicly replies to reviews under 5★ (1–4★). Needs 3+ such reviews, otherwise not counted; 65% absolute (80%+ replied = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.
