Ready to get your space back? Tell us what you’ve got, and we’ll handle the rest.
How This Works (It’s Easier Than You Think)
We don’t need a novel. Just tell us what’s junky, and we’ll take it from there. Once you fill out this form, your request goes directly to the Area Owner who handles your region — no call centers, no confusion. You’ll hear from us fast (usually within minutes) via text or call with any questions and your estimate.
Here’s the simple process: You tell us what needs to go, we give you an honest price upfront, we show up when promised, and we haul it all away while you watch your space transform back into something you actually want to use.
No surprises. No hidden fees. No “oops, that’ll cost extra” moments after we’ve already loaded your stuff.

What You Can Request Help With
Essentially, if it’s taking up space and you’d like it removed, we can probably assist. We’ve hauled everything from hot tubs that somehow ended up on third-floor decks to collections of 47 coffee makers from a single office. (Every department apparently had its own.)
Real Local Crews. No Outsourcing. No Nonsense.
All MrJunk® locations are run by real, local owners, not subcontractors or strangers with trucks. When you request a pickup, you’re getting the A-team: Uniformed, background-checked crew members who show up ready to work, with the right gear, muscle, and manners.
We don’t just toss your stuff in a truck and drive away, either. We protect your property during removal, clean up after ourselves, and handle everything with the same care we’d want for our own homes and businesses.
Who’s Going to Reach Out to You?
The person who follows up is the same person who runs your area. No customer service reps reading from scripts, you’re talking directly to the owners:
- Dax (Columbia/Central Missouri) — The original MrJunk® founder who’s been doing this since 2005
- Chris (Lake Ozark & Jefferson City) — Dax’s friend for 25+ years, who brings the same standards to the lake country
- Trevor (Alton, St. Charles, St. Louis) — Started as a crew member, now runs the Illinois/St. Louis operation
These guys actually answer their phones, know the business inside and out, and genuinely care about helping people get their spaces back.

Want to Know What We Take?
We’ve hauled everything from dusty 1980s workout equipment to full garages of mysterious boxed chaos, from pianos that required engineering degrees to remove, to hot air balloon baskets that came with house purchases (true story).
But if you want the complete list of what we take (and what we don’t), check out our Items We Take page.
Some of our most popular pickups:
- Furniture that’s seen better decades
- Appliances that have given up the ghost
- Electronics from the era when phones had cords
- Hot tubs and exercise equipment
- Construction debris and yard waste
- Entire estate cleanouts

Family-Owned Junk Removal Experts
Fast & Easy Junk Removal
We’re not just the oldest locally-owned junk removal company in Mid-Missouri, we’re the most trusted. Recommended by neighbors who’ve watched us transform their most overwhelming spaces into clean, organized environments they can’t wait to use again.
Licensed, Insured, & Locally Trusted
We’re the original MrJunk®, not a franchise, not some fly-by-night operation. Dax started this company in Columbia back in 2005, and we’ve been building our reputation one satisfied customer at a time ever since. When you call us, you’re getting the team that’s been perfecting junk removal across Missouri and Illinois for over two decades.
Keeping Missouri & Illinois Cleaner & Greener
We don’t just haul your stuff away and call it a day. After 20+ years in this business, we’ve built partnerships with local charities throughout Missouri and Illinois because we know that one person’s junk is often another family’s treasure. Here’s what actually happens to your stuff: We donate what we can to local organizations, recycle electronics and metals properly, and dispose of the rest responsibly at licensed facilities. Because keeping our communities clean isn’t just good business, it’s what we do!
We’re strong, but we’re not hazmat specialists. Items like lead paint, asbestos, medical waste, chemicals, and other hazardous materials need specialized disposal through certified facilities. We also skip anything with active pest infestations, live electrical connections still wired into your house, and materials that require special permits we don’t carry. But here’s the thing – if we can’t take it, we’ll point you toward the right disposal solution. Most communities have hazardous waste collection events, and we know the proper facilities to recommend.
