Junk King of Marin

Wow, outstanding service and best price in the area! After we moved in November we used 1800 Junk and a debris box from Marin Sanitary and I wish we had gone to Junk Kings first. I booked my appointment online and the gentlemen that showed up were polite and professional.
Do not waste your time going anywhere else!

Junk-​King did a great job today. They called ahead, gave me a price over the phone based on a picture, and showed up on time. They even took some additional items at a great rate. I was surprised at how affordable it was. They were super friendly too. I will definitely recommend and use them again.

I was very impressed by Matt and his crew going above and beyond the call of duty to help us out on a challenging and messy job. Despite getting stuck in the mud a few days prior they made it their mission to get the job done and do it right. I respect these guys and their dedication to professionalism and hard work.

Jeff and Jeremy are really great guys. We did not have a lot of junk to haul away but they gave us a great price. Junk King is fast, efficient and «The Brothers» are helpful and charming. :)

I have used Junk King twice and was pleased both times. This time they dismantled a horrid old metal shed (about 8′ x 10′) and took it away along with a lot of other awful junk. The crew was friendly, quick, and professional. I would use them again and recommend them to anyone who needs junk removed.

I was really impressed with Junk King today! They were on time, courteous and really reasonable. we had so much accumulated junk and they had a bit of a hike getting it to their truck but they did so efficiently. would whole heartedly recommend them for your junk removal needs…

We just relocated up to Petaluma, CA and needed to say «by-​by» to a bunch of moving boxes, a Mattress, 2 tables etc… We called around 11 AM. They arrived that SAME day just several hours later… Joe & Sergio were very professional, kind & speedy! We’ll definitely request their services again soon!

I had an extraordinarily impressive experience today with Junk King… and after witnessing what these guys today are capable of, I really wouldn’t ever consider using a different Junk Removal Service in the bay area again.
Joe originally came out with one other guy to do initial estimates. Jacob came back later that day to do a 2^nd analysis (this was a really hard job). Jacob seemed to lead the team on removal day, and the other guys were Joe, Justin and Sergio. Everyone did GREAT.
The job I needed them for was far larger than what I can imagine is normal. If I had to guess, it was probably one of the heaviest jobs they have had. We had about 18,000 pounds of scrap metal that needed clearing, with three separate antique printing presses that weighed about 4,000 pounds each. The machinery was all deep inside of an old building, without a proper loading dock or means of access for the exit.
After receiving bids from multiple companies, Junk King’s prices were right in line with everyone else. They came in higher than some companies, lower than others, but they are LICENSED and INSURED for $ 2,000,000 and were very professional with their attitudes, appearance, and the quality of their trucks. It was a no brainer choosing them over their competitors.
They rented a fork lift to get the gear out, and it was an extremely difficult job. They came with two separate trucks. They literally had millimeters of room to get through on some tight squeezes carrying enormous lynotype printing presses from the early 1900’s… but they did it — without destroying my building, and without injuring anyone in the process. I was biting my finger nails the whole way through, as this was a SERIOUSLY risky job… but they totally pulled it off — and they did it far faster than I anticipated that they could.
They showed up on time, were friendly, and did a great job. Clearly, this is the Junk Removal and Hauling company that you want to use.

I highly recommend this company to take care of your junk removal needs! The young men they send are very polite and professional. They take care in treating your property the «junk» is sitting on, isn’t mistreated. They work very hard and are quick about it. I gave them coffee water & a snack, along with a well deserved tip! I definitely will keep them as my sole means of junk removal! Thanks guys for a job well done!!!

(This morning) The two guys who came get a zero. The company gets a zero. The website says it removes soils, sod, landscaping debris. We had landscaped our front yard. We had maybe a yard-​and-​a-​half of broken concrete. Two guys loaded in 15 minutes. They wanted $ 300. I offered $ 150. They took it. What about the dirt?
The two guys said they didn’t do dirt. Their supervisor, whom they called, told me «we don’t take dirt. It’s very difficult to get rid of.» Tried to sell me on my dirt pile was 7 yards. Nope. It’s just under 4 yards.
Yet when we placed the order on Sunday, we told them what we had. «No problem» they told my wife.
End result: concrete gone. About 4 cubic yards of front yard dirt still here.
Spent the rest of the day waiting for a call back to explain why website says they’ll remove dirt, but the local supervisor said they don’t dirt.
(4:30) The owner of the Petaluma office just called. More excuses. More explanations. He admits they completely mishandled us. Said they lose money hauling dirt. I said they need to change their website. They said they would tear up my check from this morning. Told us we should have been given the name and number of another company who would take the dirt.
Why are these two guys working for you? Owner says they need them as they are understaffed. Interesting answer. Wrong answer.
I’m also calling the BBB. And posting on Facebook. And anywhere else I can find.
Junk Kings? I’d say Ripoff Kings.

I called around and selected Junk King for their good pricing and ability to come within a few days. The woman who answers their phone was very professional. Once they arrived, two very nice gentleman (I wish I had written their names down) were able to take away my old dryer lickety split. They were very professional and friendly. The fact that this company uses biodiesel — like I do — was an added plus. We are now loyal customers and know we will be calling them anytime we need to get rid of large items.

Great experience with Matt and crew, and they were done within 15 minutes of arrival. Exceptionally priced, and a pleasure to work with!

I had demolished an old chicken coop and had a huge pile of old boards full of nails plus rusted chicken wire. Art and Jake arrived earlier than scheduled (how often does THAT happen!) and had the debris loaded in about an hour. They did a great job!
Also, the communication with Matt was easy and hassle-​free. They were good to their word about everything. A pleasure to work with them.

Moving to another state and needed to get rid of several substantial items. Reserved a time slot online (thank you for not making me talk to a person) and was able to get a pretty accurate estimate just based on their truck tool on their website. Very happy that they showed up on time, the rates were quite reasonable (half of what a friend paid another company for about the same load). Highly recommend!

Great friendly service. Polite people that really care. Sharp!

These guys are awesome. Period. I scheduled a pick up of yard waste (huge pile) and misc. other junk. They arrived on time, were very friendly and got the job done in a very short amount of time. What I love is that these guys work hard to recycle /​re-​use and the service is very affordable. Most importantly, my wife is happy for cleaning up.
Thanks Junk-​King! I don’t think I will ever visit the dump again!

A former tenant contracted with Junk King to remove a huge mess she had left on my property. They said that it would be a 2-​day job and scheduled it for last Monday and Tuesday. Three workers arrived close enough to the appointed time. I was hopeful, but noticed that they had no safety equipment beyond light vinyl gloves, even though the task at hand was to dismantle a whole manufactured home and get it into dumpsters.
On that first day, one of the workers’ wives arrived with 2 young girls and a bunch of small dogs. They visited for a significant period during which no one on the crew appeared to focused on the job. They left around 3 PM. The trailer was partially dismantled. The driveway was full of shards of glass. The wind was up, so loose insulation was blowing all over.
By the next morning, my property and that of my neighbors was full of that stuff. The lead worker, who again showed up without any protective gear beyond gloves, informed me that it was too windy, so the crew would leave at noon and come back «some other time to finish.» He explained that he had other jobs to bid.
I told him this was not an acceptable plan. He said tough. Then I got angry and called the main company. A very nice receptionist went back and forth with her boss and they got the local franchise to stay on the job. The the franchise owner called me and started yelling at me. I yelled back. They left the yard covered with shards of broken glass and carefully placed an old tire they had been paid to remove under a pile of planter trays.
When I called the main office again about their finishing the job or paying me to, they blew me off. This whole company stinks. I don’t know if my status as a senior woman was a factor, but it certainly felt like it. This is not acceptable behavior for any company. Do NOT give them your business unless you want you property trashed and your time wasted. My next stop is OSHA. These folks pose a danger to themselves and others.

Texted Junk King based on the positive Unilocal reviews.
They exceeded expectations.
Easy to set up an appointment. They were on time. Brought the necessary tools to get the job done.
Plus they are friendly and efficient. I think the price for the job they did was fair and they left the job site clean.
I would recommend them to anyone who needs hauling/​trash removal. I am sure we will call on them again.

I called Junk King yesterday for an estimate, and today Jacob and Art came over, saw the furniture that needed to be moved, estimated the same fair price quoted by phone and even offered a better price. After I agreed, they quickly and efficiently hauled an entire living room set in under ten minutes. If that’s not efficiency at its best, I don’t know what is. It’s so rare to have a perfect service experience, but this was definitely one of them. Thank you, Junk King for running a great company.

Matt V was prompt and courteous. Gave a good estimate & was serviced quickly. The haulers called when they were on their way. All payment options were a
Convenience (I didn’t have to go to cash machine!) Will definitely use again in the near future!
