Junk King is a privately held junk removal and recycling company with over 70 franchise territories in the United States and Canada.
Junk King was started in San Carlos, California in 2005 by childhood friends Mike Andreacchi and Brian Reardon. After Andreacchi had worked for 1-800-GOT-JUNK?, he observed first-hand how the branded junk removal business model increased the speed of growth of the franchises. He realized he could create his own junk removal business and service many different customers .
Junk King began franchising in 2010 and within a few years, expanded across the United States and also into Canada under the "Junk Works" brand. Junk King and Junk Works reuse, recycle, or donate high percentages of items collected. As of April 2017, Junk King and Junk Works combined have over 75 franchises open in the United States and Canada, including Atlanta, Boston, Cleveland, Dallas, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Antonio, and San Diego.
Junk King was named one of INC. magazine's ten most promising franchises of 2011.
Junk King recycles up to 50% of all the debris they haul.
