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. It's the Junk King way.
