“Coordinating the rental of a dumpster and hiring someone to do the hauling AND finding a suitable place even to put a dumpster for a week was frankly overwhelming.”
Anna Parkes

1-800-Got-Junk? makes this process simple, they will take away almost anything – from old furniture and appliances to yard waste and renovation debris – including many things that the local garbage company won’t typically accept. They schedule at the client’s convenience, call 15-30 minutes before arrival, give a clear estimate before beginning the job and sweep up when they are done. They even do all the loading – the client doesn’t even need to get it to the curb. And if that isn’t enough, 1-800-Got-Junk? is environmentally responsible – up to 60% of the junk removed is recycled or reused and they also donate to local non-profit organizations.
“Social responsibility and contributing to the community is a very important core value of the CSP™ organization and partnering with socially responsible firms like 1-800-GOT-JUNK? is part of our corporate “pay it forward” philosophy.” says CSP™ founder Christine Rae.
Many sellers know an uncluttered home with plenty of storage space will appeal to the widest buying audience. Therefore the perfect time to downsize, purge and generally clean-up is before the first open house. What needs to go and what needs to stay is part of the professional expertise CSPs bring to the table. This partnership between the CSP™ organization and 1-800-Got-Junk? promises to make this process even more painless for CSP graduates’ clients.
