What customers said about moving-related junk removal
College Hunks Hauling Junk did a great job. The crew was friendly and professional, and they were thorough from start to finish — nothing was rushed or overlooked. I’d recommend them without hesitation

So far we have used Gentle Giant twice, once for a local move and for a long distance move from PA to VA. Each time we had a seamless experience, I highly recommend them. They also offer storage units at a good price.
Garrett, Brice, Marlon were absolutely excellent today. We had a horrible experience with another local mover over the weekend who left us high and dry.

The two angels are literally angels! They did a fantastic job. They were very communicative and efficient. Even in the hot sun they moved everything quickly but as safely as possible and they did a great job wrapping my tv on the spot. Thank you both! I’d absolutely use them again.
Received a quote quickly, service was professional and efficient. Would use again for any junk removal
