We hired Junk Relief to haul away a large, heavy, wood desk and some other stuff. The crew communicated their ETA so we knew when to expect them. Romario and his partner were friendly, efficient and respectful of our property. The price was fair, and we will definitely consider Junk Relief for our next haul away job. read more

After a horrible experience trying to get 1-800-GOT-JUNK to come out and haul away a baby grand piano from a 3rd floor walk-up (long story... see my other review), I finally found Junk Relief. They were polite, gave me a true & accurate quote over the phone after I sent them a photo. They showed up when they said they would, sent four guys to take it apart and down the stairway. They were polite, professional and reasonably priced. What more could you ask? I'll use them again. read more

Had a dead refrigerator located in my basement that needed removal. Quick response to request, next day service, excellent communication regarding pick up time, workers removed doors and away it went at a fair price. I would definitely use them again. read more

I had a small haulaway of large furniture items: they were very clear in their estimate (was a bit less on the day of because I ended up not needing them to take three pieces) and they scheduled easily, communicated clearly, arrived exactly on time, were very friendly and professional, and were in and out in a super efficient way! My thanks to Jose and the team! Considering the estimate I bet they'd be even more cost-effective for a big junk removal rather than a small one, and I'll keep them in mind for the future for sure! read more

The Junk Relief team led by Raca was courteous, careful and thorough. They arrived on time and completed the job efficiently. Would recommend. read more

I had a great experience with Junk Relief. After contacting them, they had an opening for me the next day. They were reasonably priced, and the movers were very efficient. I highly recommend them. I will be using Junk Relief in the future. read more

Junk Relief was fantastic. They were very responsive, and straightforward in all the communication. Their quote was accurate and they showed up exactly when they said they would. The two men who did the work were very professional and did a great job. I would definitely use them again if I needed junk removal. We had about 25 years worth of accumulated junk in a garage, and they made quick work of it. read more

I just had to get rid of one thing and Junk Relief really came through for me. Scheduling was handled via their website and email, which was convenient for me. I also liked being able to text them to confirm. The movers were helpful and I would not hesitate to use their service again. read more

Good Afternoon. These guys were the BEST. I did just a general google search. The response rate was none like I have ever experienced. In less than 24 hours they were able to satisfy all things I need done. I intend on using them for all my future needs! SUPERB SERVICE!!!! If I could give more than 5 stars I would. The two Men worked really fast. In a blink of an eye they started and were done. read more

Although there were some provider initiated rescheduling delays, the service was excellent and the quality of work outstanding. This was the best value of all the requested quotes as well. read more

I noticed all 5-star ratings. Now I know why. Excellent in all categories! I called for an estimate on Tuesday for a clean out. There was a crew there on Wednesday morning. Two guys who did a terrific job very respectful of the property. Asked questions about anything they weren't sure of. No dumpsters no mess. This company is truly professional. read more

I needed a couch removed because I'm moving and don't want to take it with. I contacted several junk removal companies and highest quote was $175 and the most affordable was Junk Relief at $95!!! The time slot was 11 to 1 and they arrived about 11:15. They were both very neat, pleasant and knowledgeable in moving couch out the door. I will use them again and will post on my facebook. read more

Wow, what a great find! My basement and garage were a mess with old furniture, metal, boards, and more. I reached out to Junk Relief the evening before. They responded almost instantly with a quote (I sent pictures), and they arrived by 12:30 p.m. the next day. They were extremely professional and even swept the garage when they were done. I will definitely use Junk Relief again when it's time! read more

Easy to book, fast and efficient service, and a great price. I had requested junk pickup/disposal for an old couch (that was a bit busted) and a decade old mattress that was not going to my new apartment. The email responses were nearly instantaneous. We might as well have been on the phone because their responses were that fast. I had gone with them because the reviews about speed, price, and friendliness. The reviews were right. Day of: they were great. I added two items to the haul. They didn't flinch. They were friendly, efficient, and the price was right. I wouldn't hesitate to call them in the future for items that I can't sell or recycle. read more

My tenant died and was a hoarder. You could not walk in. I was stunned and did not know what to do. Of course I called 1 800 Got Junk and their quote scared me. I saw Junk Relief on Yelp. I called, they came, they did the job. Jesse and Jose were wonderful. I actually used them twice. Thank you for getting g me out of a mess. read more

Requested a price quote and now I have texts and calls coming in from multiple places all morning.

I was getting some work done in my basement and needed a couch to be removed. I called Junk Relief on a Sat morning and they were available to come the same day just a few hours later. The representative on the phone was very friendly and professional. The guys that showed up to remove the couch did a great job! They had to dismantle the couch as it was too big to come through the staircase. It took them about 45 min from start to finish and they were on their way. Their prices are very reasonable as compared to others. If you're in need of such services, don't bother looking elsewhere and give Junk Relief a call! I would highly recommend them! read more

Highly recommend! Quick response, competitive quote and fast turnaround! The guys came on time; were professional & friendly and were FAST (I had a work call meeting and was able to make it bc the guys were so efficient) read more

Incredibly fast response and service time. Efficient and worth the cost. We recently moved and had to order a bunch of new things. As a result we ended up with a room FULL of boxes and packing materials. JUNK Relief was able to come out the day after I messaged them on Yelp and cleared out the junk room in about 10 minutes total. Very happy with the service, will be using them again in the future! read more

Very happy we decided to go with Junk Relief. We received instant quotes and was able to lock in same day service. Communication was excellent and the team was very professional and punctual. Jessie and Mario were great to work with - kept the mood light while staying busy. Highly recommended! read more

Good experience. They were on time, thorough, and worked hard to get my from my basement and up some difficult stairs. Junk removal is surprisingly expensive, but I believe the cost was competitive especially since we added some things on when they got here. We will call them again if needed, for sure. read more

Received a text that they had arrived at my address at 11:45 (I was told via phone and text that I would receive a 30 minute reminder when they were on their way / what their ETA was as their time frame was a total of 4 hours of when they would possibly be coming -- this takes a huge chunk out of my day as it is). As I did not receive the reminder I was not home, so I rush home and call their number to speak with someone who went by a fake name and claimed that they would wait the 13 minutes it took me to get to my home. When I got home, their truck was not there to do the service. This individual over the phone assured me that the truck was there and I assured him that I was not blind and I would know if their giant box truck was here and was quite frustrated that I dropped everything and rushed home because I received a text with no warning that they were at my residence, as I had made them aware that I would need an hour reminder prior to their ETA if possible to prepare for their arrival given the four hour time span they provided (no specific appointment time). When they arrived, they had no manners nor regards for my residence nor things, even though I was having them come for "junk relief" as they literally threw my quite large couch off the railing of my second story apartment into the yard. They did say that they would be disassembling things free of charge however they did not do any of this, they simply took things assembled in order to move things along (for their schedule) as I had received a voicemail while I was on the phone with said person who claimed to be a manager (was not) who stated they were stuck at another job and would not be arriving until two hours after I received the text that they had "arrived" & was insisted they were there when A) this was not a manager but an employee that came into my residence and also took my Apple Watch in which I had to retrieve back on my own after he texted my number and B) was overall lied to and could not recommend this place any less. I can throw my own couch off a railing if I want to, there is no value in dealing with this awful hassle. The locations listed on their website are not accurate either. Go with literally anyone else! read more

Thank you , Thank You, Thank You Service was fast, friendly and affordable. Got rid of my 2 piece Sectional from a 2nd floor walkup in minutes.... I also super appreciate the guys coming in masked as well... ;-) read more

Could not be more pleased! Received immediate response from Sara via the messaging tool. Scheduling was super efficient and I had no question as too what I would have to pay for the service.

After moving into our new house, we finally upgraded to a new couch but we stupidly didn't have a plan for what to do with the old couch! My husband wanted to donate it but we had a housewarming party planned and I didn't have time to wait for someone to pick it up. I contacted Junk Relief via text and they quickly responded with a quote and a time--next day! I received a text when they were 30 minutes away and then a call when they were in the driveway. The team was fast and friendly and best of all--no more couch! If we ever have a need to haul away more stuff, I will definitely use Junk Relief again. read more

They did such an amazing job. We had some odds n' ends left over after we moved, and in my garage there were plenty of huge but empty boxes and a few furniture items that were worse for the wear. It was easy to get a quote from them, schedule a pickup time, and everything else. They arrived 15 minutes into the 3 hour window after notifying me about a half an hour in advance, as they said they would. Once they got here, they were professional and insanely efficient! In under 15 minutes, they cleared away many heavy items. In all, I paid under $200, which is the lowest figure I found. Check them out! They deserve your business. EDIT: Forgot to add...they swept up any dust or debris afterward, and it showed me that they take care of every detail. So nice to see for a neat freak like myself. read more

I called Junk Relief on Friday afternoon and these guys were here ready to go within 1 hour . They were professional , fair and honest. They helped me to get rid of a lot of heavy and light items after winter cleaning . Highly recommended service . They left the space clean. Overall excellent experience and I for sure will be calling them in the future. Overal cost was competitive as well so FIVE STARS for Joe and his team. read more

Since COVID-19 introduced itself to part of our lives, I have been paying more attention on cleanliness and "cluster-ness" of my my own home. There were items that took up too much space and just didn't need to be here anymore. When I was doing budget-planning, I was curious to see how much a junk removal service would charge for removing a 3-piece sectional faux leather sofa that was shedding uncontrollably and a long white metal rail that fell off the wall years ago. I sent a Yelp message with written descriptions and pictures to a different junk removal company initially. However, the message was also forwarded to four (4) other companies with good rating. "Junk Relief" was the first company to get back to me with a quote and work detail. I thought the quote was reasonable and asked more questions in regard of this project. Although other companies eventually got back to me by the end of business day, I praised for prompt responses from "Junk Removal" and proceeded with the scheduling. Scheduling was quite easy. It was done through Yelp messaging and no phone calls required! On the day of removal, two (2) young men showed up during the time interval we agreed on, with masks on, and were ready to go. I missed their calls a couple of times because I was napping, but that was my fault (oops)! I showed them where the items were and they got to work right away. The process took about twenty (20) minutes. They guys didn't leave any mess. When it came to paying for the service, there was no bad surprise: the price they quoted was the price I paid for. I also received an invoice in the e-mail in a pdf file after the credit card was charged. I would say everything appeared to be legit. I definitely recommend "Junk Relief" to give yourself some relief on having one less unnecessary item in your crib! Communication was fast and clear. It was way simple than I imagined to be. I will be going through my storage room and call "Junk Relief" again for future projects. read more

I have used Junk Relief three times, and each and every time they exceed my expectations. Today I had a very large, very stubborn and nasty shed (that was only useful to the mice that nested in it ) that was connected to my house removed by Junk Relief. I cannot speak highly enough about their professionalism, respect, humor and hard work. The shed was an absolute beast to take down, but they did it and they did it in a timely manner and held on to their sense of humor through the whole thing. Junk Relief will always be my go-to whenever I need large projects like this done. They are worth every penny and I recommend them to friends and family members regularly. They are, without a doubt, a first class company. read more

I fell into a nasty 'stay at home' rut during lockdown and decided to do some major downsizing. It felt like a super daunting amount of stuff so I decided to hire professionals to help me out. There are a number of junk removal services in Chicago but Joe at Junk Relief got back to me almost immediately (literally within about 2 minutes) and gave me a super reasonable quote (This type of job is priced by the amount of space it takes up in a truck). The next day, they texted me about 15 minutes into the time window Joe and I had discussed, letting me know they were on their way. The whole job took no more than 20 minutes, and that's with my super slow elevator. I was so impressed by their quick work and felt totally in control of my apartment again. Almost forgot-- they wore masks the whole time! Very important to give a shoutout to all the places still taking COVID-19 seriously! I'll be shocked if I spend my money on something better in 2021. Truly! Hire these guys if you need anything removed from your living space! read more

These guys are the best! On time, friendly and price was very reasonable! 100% would recommend.

These guys are affordable and fast! We had flooding and were in need of help! They were there the next day. We arranged most of it by text. So easy! The guys were super nice. read more

Thomas and jonathon were prompt, quick, and efficient at removing a queen bed and a few dressers. Thanks for hauling our stuff!

These guys were great. Should have called them long ago to get rid of the pool table we haven't used since we lived here! I called on Tuesday, and they came out on Wednesday - and the pool table in our basement was disassembled and removed in under an hour. Johnathan and Thomas were super professional and friendly. AND there were no hidden charges. The quote was final. It was well worth it. My husband claims he could have done it himself - but I know better! read more

Sofa removal - service on 7/15/24. I am very happy with the service - Very nice workers -very professional -good prize (just as estimated).Will use them again in the future.Highly recommend. read more

I had Junk Relief come out to do about 700 sq ft of carpet removal today and they did an incredible job! The carpet removal itself was very quick, and then the three of us tag teamed to remove the tack strips and staples. The whole job was finished in just over an hour, with cleaning and vacuuming as well. I'm very happy with the work these guys did and how efficient we were able to get everything out to the truck. They charge very little for labor which was a nice plus, since I was planning to do all the carpet cutting and removal myself. Several other companies quoted me over $100 more just to do the haul away and no labor. This is the only company I'll continue to work with as I renovate my home. Thanks again for your help today! Best, Charlie read more

Q and Ramiro were fast, nice and the transaction was super easy. Will you use them again.

I had to have a bed removed from my property. The men were very professional and personable. Instead of saying to the dispatcher that it's hard to find a parking space. I instead told the dispatcher that they would have a place to park. I made sure that the item they were picking up was secure so no problem carrying it. You have to remember, there are other people using this service not just you. So make sure everything runs smoothly. It makes their job easier to do. The texts were very efficient in letting me know when exactly they were arriving. They are very reasonable! I will be recommending Junk Relief to others. read more

First time used. I got a quote within 24 hours of request. Services were available same week (even a next day option!) I received notification the crew was en route with an accurate arrival time. Crew was great! Friendly, productive, and professional. Will definitely use them again if need arises for such services. read more
