they did a great job for me. I was in a bind because my refrigerator died while I was out of town and it was a real mess. . They came through for me. Really recommend them for all jobs.

I didn't have as much as the estimated amount. 1/4 truck, so they offered a flat fee. I provided their info to one of my neighbors and would do so with my other neighbors as well as use their service again myself!

Our family has been using JunkMD for the past couple of years. They are consistently professional, efficient, fair, and kind. They have been an enormous help to us in our endless pursuit to declutter. Many Thanks!
