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.

LoadUp connects customers (B2C & B2B) with local service providers for junk haul-away, donation pickup, assembly, and hourly labor. Our tech-powered platform delivers real-time, upfront pricing nationwide making junk removal easy, affordable, and transparent.
We prioritize responsible disposal with donation and recycling programs. No job is too big or small, from furniture to cardboard boxes.

Over the last three decades Clean Up Australia Day has grown into the nation's largest community-based environmental event. Now one of the country’s most recognised and trusted environmental organisations, Clean Up Australia provides free resources and materials to communities, schools and youth groups all year round, supporting Australians everywhere clean up, fix up and conserve the environment. Today the focus is as much on preventing rubbish entering our environment as it is removing what has already accumulated.
We want to lead the way in collaborating with organisations who take an innovative approach to sustainability, and to celebrate business models and systems which support a circular economy.
