What customers say

“Excellent service from veteran junk removal. Consistent follow-up by phone, text and email throughout the process. Very fair pricing for large pieces of furniture and all. Keith was extremely nice and considerate.”

Debra Mezigian
Furniture Removal

“These guys are great. Offered next day removal. Excellent communication. Picked up truckload of construction debris in less than an hour, brought tools to cut larger pieces to fit in their truck, and the left space spotless. Very reasonable pricing. Would definitely use again!”

Christine Hergren
Construction Debris Removal

“This company is top-notch! We hired them to take all the stuff out of my Mother-in-laws house. They emailed a confirmation, they called 30 minutes before arriving and showed up on time. They knew what they were doing. They were personable and professional.”

Marla Poirier
Estate Cleanouts

“They called when they were in the way so we knew they headed to us, arrived on time, and got to work super quick. Have already booked them again for another job, and will continue to in the future anytime we need something hauled away.”

Kristin Reyer

“Just finished a house and garage clean out with Keith and Travis from Veterans Junk Removal. A+ for every step of the process, from my initial phone call to the loaded truck driving away. Hard working, friendly, polite, the team and company met all promises stated on the website. Highly recommend.”

How Veteran Junk Removal works

From a single item pickup to a full property cleanout, here is how the job goes from the first phone call to a swept-clean space.

Step 1

Request a Quote

Call, text a photo, or book online. Say what the load is, where it sits, and whether anything like a hot tub or appliance still needs disconnecting, so it goes into the quote.

Step 2

Schedule a Pickup

Choose a two-hour arrival window: 9 to 11, 11 to 1, 1 to 3, or 3 to 5, and bookings close at 5pm. Same-day and next-day pickups are often available when the schedule allows.

Step 3

We Do the Heavy Lifting

The crew looks at the load and the access, confirms one total, and waits for your approval. Then they carry everything out from wherever it sits and load the truck.

Step 4

Responsible Disposal

We donate and recycle whenever possible, where local facilities accept the items. Whatever can't be reused is disposed of properly, and disposal is already part of your total.

See more FAQs
How much does junk removal cost in Metro Detroit?
Pricing is based on how much of our 18-cubic-yard truck your load fills, from a single item up to a full truck. The crew looks at the load and the access, confirms one total on site, and nothing is loaded until you approve it. Labor and disposal are included in that total.
Can I get a quote from a photo?
Yes. Text a photo of the pile and the crew can size the job before the visit. The photo sets expectations; the total itself is confirmed in person once the crew sees the load and the access, and nothing is loaded until you approve it.
Can you come today?
Same-day and next-day pickups are often available when the schedule allows. Call to see what today's route has open, or book online and pick a two-hour arrival window: 9 to 11, 11 to 1, 1 to 3, or 3 to 5. The crew works seven days a week, 8am to 8pm, across Metro Detroit and Ann Arbor.
Do I need to move everything to the curb first?
No. The crew carries items out from wherever they sit: the basement, the attic, an upstairs bedroom, or the back of the garage. Stairs and tight doorways are covered in the total the crew confirms on site, before anything is loaded, so there is nothing to haul out ahead of time.
Is Veteran Junk Removal licensed and insured?
Yes. Veteran Junk Removal is licensed and insured. It is a veteran-owned business based in Taylor, MI, owned by Eric and Holly Bardallis and serving Metro Detroit and Ann Arbor since 2020. The crew does not take on structural demolition or pull permits, so check with your local building department if a deck, shed, or remodel project needs one.
Do you offer any discounts?
Yes. Veterans, first responders, seniors, nurses and healthcare workers, and teachers get a discount. Mention it when you book so it's applied to the total the crew confirms on site. The discount comes off that single total, which already includes the labor and the disposal, and you approve the final number before anything is loaded.
