We are the junk people! We provide low cost residential and commercial junk, trash and rubbish removal services. We are similar to a dumpster rental service in terms of what we can dispose of, however we offer much more value! We are less expensive and more convenient than renting a trash container. With JUNK RATS you do not have to pay for pick up and drop off fees, no cost of disposal and add in the convenience that we do all the lifting and loading ourselves. The size or location of the item does not matter. You just point the items out to our crew, and sit back and relax.
\r\n\r\nWe guarantee we have the lowest price in the market. We send two people with a truck (if the job is too big, we send more people). There are never any hidden fees and all labor is included. No matter where your junk is, basement, first floor, second floor or back yard, we take it all. We do not charge by the house, whatever time it takes to do the job, it is on us. We do not charge by the weight, dumping fees are included.
\r\n\r\nWe take care of the environment and ensure that your junk gets recycled, donated, or disposed of responsibly whenever possible. We also offer a partner company for professional house cleaning services upon request.

Everything went just as they said it would—they were able to remove all of our items, as well as some boxes and bags of garbage. It was a VERY hot and humid day, so I made sure to have plenty of cold bottled water on hand, which they greatly appreciated. They did everything to my satisfaction. The pool table was a real job as it had to be taken apart and broken into sections, and they did that very well. They cleaned up all the debris from that job, making sure to load the truck in the best possible way to ensure they could fit the maximum amount of stuff. We packed that brand new truck FULL. Those guys worked so hard! I would highly recommend them.
