How to Book Junk Removal Near Me: A Step-by-Step Guide for Colorado Homeowners
If you're looking around your home and wondering how you're ever going to get rid of that old mattress, broken fridge, or the mountain of boxes in your garage, you’re not alone. Junk piles up fast, and when it’s time to clear it out, most people hop online and search for “junk removal near me.”
But then what? Do you need a dumpster? Who do you call? How do you get a quote?
If you're in Boulder, Louisville, Lafayette, Superior, or nearby, this guide walks you through exactly how to book junk removal the easy way - with real people who care, not a faceless national chain.
Let’s break it down.
Step 1 – Know What You Need Removed
Before reaching out, take stock of what you want to get rid of. You don’t need to measure it or list every item, but a general idea helps.
Most junk removal services (including us!) take:
- Furniture (couches, mattresses, desks)
- Appliances (refrigerators, dishwashers, washers/dryers)
- Yard waste (branches, sod, leaves)
- Electronics (TVs, monitors, computers)
- Trash, debris, boxes, and general junk
Tip: Snapping a few pictures on your phone makes the quoting process way faster—more on that below.
Step 2 – Find a Local Junk Removal Company (Not a Chain)
Sure, you could call one of those big-name companies with flashy national ads, but you’ll likely end up talking to a call center and paying inflated rates.
When you go local, like with Colorado Junk Runners, you:
- Get to speak directly with Tom, the owner
- Support a locally owned business, not a franchise
- Get better, more flexible pricing
- Work with a team that actually cares
And yes, you can text photos of your junk directly to Tom for a quick, no-obligation quote:
Text your photos to 303-885-2294
Step 3 – Request a Quote
Once you know what you want removed, just send over:
- A few pictures
- Your city (so we can estimate travel time)
- A rough timeline (same day? this weekend?)
We’ll respond quickly with pricing and availability.
No forms. No hold times. No robot voice telling you your wait is 47 minutes.
Just a real person giving you a real price.
Step 4 – Choose a Pickup Time
We offer:
- Same-day and next-day availability (as long as our kid doesn't have a sporting event or the Broncos aren't playing - kidding, kind of)
- Weekend pickups
- Flexible windows
We serve homeowners, renters, property managers, and small businesses across:
Boulder, Louisville, Lafayette, Superior, Broomfield, Longmont, Arvada, Erie, and more
Step 5 – Sit Back and Let Us Handle the Heavy Lifting
You don’t need to lift a finger - we’ll do all the loading and heavy lifting. But if you're the kind of person who likes to prep ahead...
We offer a discount if your items are piled near the curb or driveway!
It saves us time, and we’re happy to pass that savings on to you.
Whether we pick it up from your garage, backyard, or curb, we’ll:
- Load it quickly
- Haul it away responsibly
- Sweep up when we’re done
Either way, you get clutter gone—fast.
