Need Junk?


An article in todays paper spotlighted a national Co. that deals in junk (old stuff). The # is 1-800-GOT-JUNK. Who knows what they have? I haven't called them due to the holidays but I'm all over them Tuesday.

Re: Need Junk?


Yeah, they have the 1800 GOT JUNK guys around here too. They come and pick up your demolition and remodeling debris mainly. I guess they'd clean up your attic or garage too if you wanted them to. Guys use their service mostly when they don't have room for a construction dumpster. They can just pile things up on a tarp in the yard or on the porch for the GOT JUNK guys.

Yeah, - - no problem, - - you just have your helper hold the crown molding slightly above eye level in the room, - - then you just shut one eye and aim that saw towards the corner. Once the customers see the look in that 'one eye' and the way it's so concentrated on the saw and the issues at hand - - they rarely complain!!

I've used both 1-877-GARBAGE and 1-800-GOT-JUNK and they're both pretty comparable.
