For most people, it’s hard to get started on organizing your own home without any guidance. We understand that deciding where to start can be paralyzing, but keep in mind that clutter can cost you your time, space, energy, mental and physical health. That is why we didn’t think twice when we had the exciting opportunity to collaborate with expert organizer, Megan Golightly, founder of Go Simplified. Megan is known for integrating her psychology background into her organization methods, and stresses the importance of a decluttered house as it can lead to a decluttered mind. Keep reading to learn more about Megan’s experience working with 1-800-GOT-JUNK? to help her clients reclaim their space.

How to let go of clutter weighing you down

Go Simplified has worked with thousands of clients and helped them "go more lightly" in their homes, and our expertise is making all that extra “weight” disappear. So when Megan brought us this recent decluttering project, the Junk Removal experts from our Calgary Franchise were happy to help give them the gift of space.

A key part of Megan’s organization process is not just deciding what you want to get rid of, but actually getting it out of the house as soon as possible. This is why Megan love’s working with 1-800-GOT-JUNK?, as our teams can even offer same day service and handle all the heavy lifting, making junk removal as easy as possible. For this clients’ service, the team removed piles of scrap wood and metal from the garage and a mattress from a second floor bedroom!

Often when decluttering, a lot of time is spent sorting what you are getting rid of into piles, such as what can be recycled or donated. Something Megan loves about 1-800-GOT-JUNK? is that we handle that for you! Our teams recycle and donate whenever possible, helping keep items out of the landfill.

Frequently asked questions

How does 1-800-GOT-JUNK? charge for junk removal?

We price based on how much space your items take up in the back of our truck, broken down into ⅛, ¼, ½, ¾ of a truckload, all the way up to a full truckload. Our trucks hold the equivalent of seven pickup trucks.

Our prices vary based on location and there is a minimum charge for our teams to remove your items, which is different in each location, based on a number of factors, including local disposal and recycling fees.

We offer single item pricing for certain items such as mattresses or TVs, sometimes this will be less than our minimum charge.

For materials that have a heavy cubic weight like dirt, concrete, and gravel, pricing is based on the total volume that the material takes up in the truck, up to a maximum of one foot in height for a full truck.

Watch us load up a truck to see how our standard pricing works!

Do you provide recurrent, bulk-service pricing discounts?

If you need service weekly, monthly, or quarterly, we offer bulk pricing discounts. This gives you better value compared to common alternatives, such as dumpsters or less professional junk removal services.

When should I expect you to arrive?

On the day of your appointment with us, our friendly, uniformed truck team members will give you a call or text 25-30 mins before we arrive to let you know we’re on our way.
