Spoke with Charlie who gave me a quote and appointment very quickly. Josh and Vicenzio arrived on time and both were knowledgeable, efficient, courteous and personable. I highly recommend Junk King.

Couldn't have gone better. Very happy with Junk King. Cameron was ontime, courteous, and very fair on price which covered labor, landfill, and hazardous waste fees. He and his crew went right to work on what needed to be done. I'm impressed. I highly recommend Junk King. They're great to work with.

The Junk King workers on the premises were punctual and polite. The issue arose when the workers accidentally (1) broke a porch window and (2) broke a bottle of syrup on the basement floor. They never mentioned the damage they caused before they left the premises. (We noticed it after they left.) In addition, they covered up the syrup spill and broken glass with a piece of plywood. I understand that accidents do happen, but any reputable company should be able to stand behind their work and offer to repair the damage at their own expense. I phoned, emailed, and texted their customer service dept, mentioning the damage and requesting that Junk King replace the glass and clean up the syrup. The customer service dept reps were polite and acknowledged receipt of my damage report and said that they would contact the local franchise owner (Todd Porter) "regarding the situation." In addition, I emailed the local franchise owner directly and sent two snail-mail letters; Mr. Porter never responded. I am very disappointed in Junk King. If they had only offered to (1) pay for the broken window replacement and (2) clean up the syrup, I would have given them a glowing review. on Angie's List. But because of the silence and lack of caring on the part of the local franchise, I am forced to give them a poor review. This is the choice that Junk King has made.

Response from Junk King Albany
On 2/21/19 Junk King provided junk removal service to the client. She did not stay at the property during the service but her husband did. After completion, the husband did not pay for services until after he did a room by room walk through of the property. The husband paid and gave the employees $100 in cash tips. Then the client gave a 9/10 review on an online review platform with the review "Worked well to get the stuff out of our house." A month later, on 3/17/19 the wife contacted Junk King stating that they left the property vacant for almost a month and just came back to notice a broken storm window. It is obvious that the house, located in the city of Albany, which was vacant for a month, suffered an attempted burglary. Perhaps while the property was vacant for a month, a neighbor's kid threw a rock at the window, or a branch hit it in a wind storm, or anything could have happened. After leaving the property for a month vacant, Junk King is not responsible for what happened after we left and most importantly AFTER the customer inspected our work. This client should contact the Albany city police and report the attempted burglary on her vacant house or contact her insurance company. Instead she has tried for months to extort money out of Junk King with the threat of a bad review, demanding more and more money. We did not break the window. Her husband inspected our work, her husband paid us, her husband gave an outrageously large tip, she first wrote us a great review, she left the urban house vacant for a month, she now wants someone to pay her without filing an insurance claim. Junk King stands behind our work and would take responsibility for any damage we cause. We endeavor to work carefully without causing any damage. But this client's claims are false. She wants someone to blame and she will probably never know the identity of a burglar for the house she left vacant in the city of Albany for a month, so she is trying to blame a company who did work in her house a month earlier.

We have a very large property (19 acres of woods), and the area immediately surrounding our house was a mess due to some logging. We had a lot of brush, branches and dead wood that needed to be removed. Junk Kings came three times and got rid of the majority of it quickly and efficiently. The weather got too cold to completely finish so I’ll be hiring them again this spring (we had a lot!!). Two men came with a big truck and completely filled it each time. They worked non-stop all day, plus they were very nice and professional. The owner Todd is also very nice and accommodating. Highly recommend them!

Richie and Durrell (sorry, I’m sure I botched the spelling) were punctual, personable and professional. I pointed out all I was hoping to have taken away and was assured that it would fit into the truck. The estimate provided fit my budget; they completed the work in about an hour, were neat, careful and checked with me periodically to make sure they had everything. I couldn’t be more pleased and relieved that accumulated possessions left by family members are GONE! Best Christmas present I could have given myself! I will definitely use Junk King again for a final clean out when I move from my home. Thank you so much!

I had the same two man crew come to my property three times to remove brush, branches, and some small logs that were unsightly and needed to go. They were wonderful: very professional, friendly and hard working. The results were great, my property looks a lot better! I would definitely hire them again.

Other than the fact that they we 1 1/2 hours late, the workers did a very good job. They tried several different ways to fit everything into one truck, although it couldn't fit. The workers did call me to tell me they would be late. The tardiness may be a scheduling issue or an information issue from the prior client , not within the control of the workers. Workers were efficient - pleased with the end result.

It went 9.5/10 well. They agreed to give an estimate before loading the truck because I was worried that I would be over a barrel if it came in high after being loaded. They quoted $390 for a half-truck. It wound up being less than a 1/2 truck, so they charged $330. The two-man crew was polite and professional. They hauled everything and swept. The price seems a bit high, but I admittedly don't know much about junk removal pricing.
Description of Work: We had the pictured haul of attic clean-out junk. Junk King came for an estimate and possible pick-up. They provided an estimate that I accepted. They hauled away said junk.
