What customers said about dumpster rental
I've used Junk King twice now and both times we're excellent experiences. Would definitely use them again in the future. All the employees are professional and responsive.
Donjae W was a very good help , on time straight to business very nice , would like to use him again when I book another removal
I met Ed, David and Gerald during the three days that we had their dumpster and they are the nicest, friendliest and most professional gentlemen you could ever meet. Also, using their service was really easy and stress free! I'll be booking their services again very soon. I highly recommend the JUNK KING!
Excellent customer service provided by Gerald. He called prior to arriving (drop off and pick up).
Amazing service. Called for a same day rental dumpster. Was professional and friendly service will use again when I sell my home.
These guys were awesome! Helped clean out clothes, junk that we didn’t need and quick too! reasonable price.
