1-800-GOT-JUNK company description

We help homeowners and businesses make space for possibility. Back in 1989, Brian Scudamore founded 1-800-GOT-JUNK? in Vancouver with a single used pickup truck. We created the professional junk removal category. Across the United States, Canada, and Australia, our uniformed crews now operate approximately 150 franchise locations. We hold roughly 16 percent of the North American market because we treat junk removal as an emotional service, not just a logistical one. You feel the weight of clutter anxiety holding you back. We make junk disappear so you can focus on your next chapter. You point to the items you want gone. Our Truck Team Members provide an on-site, no-obligation quote and handle all the heavy lifting. We route usable items and recyclables to certified downstream donation and recycling partners wherever local infrastructure allows. Harvard Business School documented our standardized franchise model in a dedicated teaching case study (HBS Case 808-101). Move.org named us among the Best Junk Removal Companies of 2026. Verified customers on Google and Trustpilot consistently highlight our on-time arrival and transparent pricing. Take back your space.
