Junk Smiths came through for us over Thanksgiving weekend with same day service, and I couldn’t be more impressed. I communicated with Catherine, who was friendly, quick to respond, and made the whole process easy. She dispatched Steve and Mike, and they were extremely professional and efficient.Their service was so good that we called them again today for a second haul and Jacob arrived within a few hours. Once again, they got everything done without any hassle. It’s great to work with a team you can rely on.Highly recommend Junk Smiths for anyone who needs quick, dependable, and professional junk removal!
