How we helped
We provided the same junk removal service to Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, as we would to our customers! We removed junk from inside their homes and hauled the items to the appropriate recycling and donation centers.
Across the six episodes we were involved in, approximately 30 Truck Team Members hauled away over 200 trucks full of junk, completely free of charge! We’d like to give a special shout-out to our six franchises involved: Greater LA, LA Metro, LA County, Burbank, Riverside, and Encino, who put in over 1,200 hours of work!
The Head of Construction for Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, David Bohler, is appreciative of the work 1-800-GOT-JUNK? did on the show, stating that, “Our ‘Extreme’ homes require extreme flexibility and creativity. 1-800-GOT-JUNK? provided trucks to move around the job site at all hours as well as providing extra hands. They provided a solution for a unique situation, cutting down on loading time and making it easy for our crew to get the homes built!”
The team at Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is extremely grateful for how 1-800-GOT-JUNK? went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly.

I want to give a shout-out and HUGE THANK YOU to the team at 1-800-GOT-JUNK? for all their help on the new season of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. They went the extra mile with a smile, showed up on time, every time and were there for us through some very challenging builds. We wouldn’t have had the success we did without them.

Frequently asked questions
1-800-GOT-JUNK? is more affordable than you may think. Our junk removal prices are all-inclusive, which means you get:
- Professional, uniformed and insured crew members
- Junk removal from anywhere on the premises
- Loading, lifting and sorting
- Recycling, donating and disposing of items
- Transfer station tariffs and fees
- Gas and travel
We charge by the amount of space your items take up in the truck. We think it’s more fair to you to price by volume instead of the length of time it takes us to lift and load. The best part is we’re cheaper in bulk: the more stuff you have, the more value you get!
For materials with a heavy cubic weight, like dirt, concrete, and gravel, pricing is based on the total volume the material takes up in the truck, up to a maximum of one foot in height for a full truck.
