Specialties

Junk Eco provides junk removal services to Minneapolis and surrounding suburbs. We do the hard work lifting items out of homes and businesses, so customers can avoid the hassle! Our aim is to avoid landfills by recycling or donating as much junk as possible. We take items such as appliances, furniture, clothing, tools, sports equipment, construction materials and more. We are proud to be a local small business to the Twin Cities, not a franchise.

History

Established in 2010.

Junk Eco was started in 2010 with the mission to give customers the liberating feeling of being free from clutter. Our aim is to avoid landfills and donate as much junk as we possibly can. The main benefits of this approach include being environmentally-​friendly with discarded items, as well as providing needed furniture, clothing and household items to the underprivileged. Since 2010 hundreds of jobs have been done, and many tons of items recycled or donated. The company has stayed small and local to the Twin Cities throughout our 3 years of business.

Meet the Manager

Scott P.

Manager

Scott helped to found Junk Eco in 2010. He has worked in junk removal for over 8 years, and performed well over 2,000 removal jobs. His most memorable job was when he led the team who cleared out an old school in Minneapolis — a whopping 15 truckload job that was completed in under a week. Here are some more Scott facts:

His favorite item hauled away? A foosball table. It was eventually donated but while we had it, it was fun!

Scott’s least favorite item hauled away? A piano from a basement.

His greatest junk removal moment? Riding a couch, on a furniture moving dolly, down a driveway. (Do not attempt at home). Scott insists that he and the couch were unharmed in the epic ride. «It was more like guided coasting — and completely safe. Carrying junk is usually hard work, but when gravity helps out, it can be a nice break,» Scott said.
