Junk King was founded from a garage in 2005 by two friends in San Carlos, CA. The idea was simple, offer great customer service and recycle more than the other guys. Today, Junk King is the #1 Rated Junk Removal Service in North America, with nearly 60 franchises in 22 states and Canada. We continue to do things the old-fashioned way, one customer at a time. We offer fair, up-front pricing, call you 15 - 30 minutes ahead of every job, and sweep up after ourselves. Junk King is proud to be North America’s greenest junk removal service. We pioneered recycling based junk removal in 2005 and have been going greener ever since. We sort each and every job for metals, e-waste, paper, household goods, textiles, furniture and appliances, in our recycling warehouses. But “going green” also means we donate, repurpose, and reuse everything from clothing, toys, baby cribs and strollers to office furniture and supplies. We run many of our trucks run on biodiesel, a domestically produced fuel made from more environmentally safe non-petroleum, renewable resources. Junk King is committed to continuing to lead the way to help keep our planet clean, green and beautiful for the generations to come.Our two man crew and big red truck will clear junk from anywhere on your property, give the area a thorough sweep-up, and then take it all away to be reused or recycled.We take all types of non-hazardous junk and bulky waste, from furniture to mattresses to electrical appliances to garden refuse, DIY and builder's debris. For health and safety reasons, we cannot remove certain hazardous items (for example, asbestos and biological waste).
