At 1-800-GOT-JUNK? we pride ourselves on making our customers’ lives easier and bringing them relief through junk removal. One of the ways we are able to execute on this promise is with the help of our truck team members, also known as TOMs. TOM stands for Top Of Mind because that's where our team wants to be.
What you can expect from our teams
Our people are what set 1-800-GOT-JUNK? apart from any other junk removal company. They are friendly and trustworthy, uniformed professionals who provide excellent customer service on every job. No job is too big or too small for our teams. Hot tub removal? Sure, we can do that. An entire office cleanout? No problem, we can do anything!
Our teams show up on-site and do all the heavy lifting for you. They’ll clear out any junk you want to get rid of, all you have to do is point! After they're done hauling the junk to the truck, they’ll even clean up the area afterward.
They act like miracle workers for some of our customers in difficult situations. One customer proclaimed, “These guys saved the day! They took what has been a tiring and anxious process and turned it into a seamless and supportive experience.” Another customer said “I love you guys. The teams always go above and beyond to help and today was no exception.” Our teams are known for exceeding expectations, like our Kelowna franchise, who helped a customer find a sentimental item that once belonged to her late father. The woman was so grateful for this act of kindness that it almost brought her to tears.
Feedback like this is what fuels our teams to give their all every day because, for us, it really is all about people. They love leaving our customers with a smile on their face and reclaimed space in their home. To see our people in action check out the video below!
