      BEYOND F$&@ING AMAZING! These guys are professional, on time and super friendly! I took advantage of their Jan special and had my very large sectional removed. Not only was my sectional heavy as hell, my unit is located in a unique entry way but these guys handled it like a breeze! I HIGHLY recommend them for you residential household junk removal. We will also use them for our commercial junk haul. Keep up the excellent work guys!

      This is the huge, worn out sectional that they removed.

      Absolutely the best in the business!!! I can't say enough great things about Nick and Sean!!!

      Today we were preparing for a move and these guys helped haul tons of stuff we couldn't take on our move cross country. From random stuff we found in our storage unit, to just tons of old/unwanted furniture, household junk, landscaping waste like heavy pavers, and we even were able to clean out what was left in our fridge and freezer! They even hauled heavy furniture down multiple flights of stairs with ease.

      We would not have been ready for our move without this team - they were truly lifesavers today and kept us on schedule.

      I've used other junk services in other cities and never had such an incredible experience - and was always paying higher rates too. From the quick response for booking and affordable and fair price quotes, to the timely arrival and communication, and fast and friendly service, these guys are the best in the business!!!

      Very good company for picking up junk. On time and quick. Cleaned up well, definitely a great company.

      Here's the thing, you want a good hauling company. If you're like me, you absolutely refuse to use 1-800-gotjunk because of those insulting commercials. Those commercials are so awful, they are essentially getting business for other companies.

      This is a good choice. Very professional. We will use them again for sure.

      I had a haul away project for my commercial building on Piedmont Avenue. I called a few places I found on Yelp and some of them were not very responsive. I called Junkcat and sent them photos of the areas and items that needed to be hauled away. They were very quick to respond with estimated pricing and they also could come the same day or the next day. The next day their team came and efficiently moved all the items and discovered even more items and rubbish to remove. The job ended up being a lot larger than what I sent by photos and they fairly made an adjustment to the fees. Overall great work and they were very good about communicating to me about the other things they discovered that needed to be removed. Very happy with Junkcat. I will definitely give them more business in the future. 5 stars!!

      What went well?! EVERYTHING! I had a bunch of crap at my house that needed to go away. These people came lickety split! Theyare the best. I'll be hiring them again in another month to do another sweep. They are respectful and downright fun! Did I mention their prices are great, too?! Thank you, Junkcat!

      I had a garage full of large construction debris, old doors, odds and ends that tenants have left throughout the years. Messaged Nick and sent some photos, and they were able to squeeze me in the same afternoon! Wow, Nick and his helper went above and beyond- even sweeping up all the debris and the loading area when they were done. I can tell that they are super honest and good people. Considering how much the dump charges, these guys are also a great deal. Hire them, and you'll have no regrets.

      Not sure if I've posted a review before but I'm going to do it again if I did. There is no other business that I will use! So honest, likable, prompt and reasonable!

      After several days 2 days of searching for a hauling company to clear my deceased husbands storage on 4/30, I was lucky enough to stumble upon Junkcat! The Yves and Sean arrived on time, actually early, and got straight to work. I felt horrible after they started because it it became clear that I underestimated the job and they needed to clear a little more than we expected. The storage was completely clear within one hour. Nick and his crew were amazing. It was very emotional for me to clear this storage, the ease of working with Junkcat made things a little bit easer. Fair prices, with professional service and a human touch. Junkcat for the win!

      Second time using Junkcat, they were fast and efficient. They caught a floor scuff that I didn't and offered to make it right, appreciate the integrity (floor's fine.) Very reasonable rate; moved a huge sleeper sofa and some other stuff, they probably had it wrapped up in 20 minutes. Highly recommend the service.
