This is the fifth time we've used them. We were having our patio pressure-washed, and we decided we didn't want the old, rusty barbeque and the old, moldy patio furniture anymore, as well as a few other odds and ends it was time to get rid of. So, we gave them a call, they showed up on time, got right to work, and got everything we'd identified in one load. What's more, the price for a full trailer was comparable to what we paid last time we used them, three years ago. How many things can you say that about? read more

These guys are the best! We decided on a whim to clear out our side yard of all the lava rock and dirt. Did some research and found G.I. Junk Removal and gave them a call. They send out two guys to do a free estimate for us within an hour of contacting them! Not only did it end up costing us less than other companies, they were able to get to it the same day. We didn't have to sort through the rock or anything. They came in with all the tools necessary and had the area cleared in 2 hours. Both guys were really nice and down to earth. The timing, pricing, work ethic, and job quality were better than I expected. This is absolutely a company I'd support and we'll be hiring them again for the rest of the yard come spring. read more

After showing up an hour late to an appointment made Days prior, they then told me they didn't have the capability to take a full load from me because they were running late. They then proceeded to tell me that if they took a half load today and a half load another day that they would then have to charge me $300 more. So they wanted to charge $300 more because they showed up unprepared to do a job I had called and requested to be done. As a veteran myself 10 out of 10 would not use this company ever read more

The boys from GI Junk Removal Arrived right when promised, were very professional, very pleasant and performed their job quickly and efficiently. And had a great smile on their faces while they worked. I have used the other service and will definitely recommend the GI Junk from now on to family and friends and anyone else who has need for their services. Again, 5 Star Service from initial contact to completion of service . Thanks guys and thanks G.I. Junk Removal read more

We had a wooden stained deck removed and hauled away along with few other items- Husband did extensive search online and got quotes and chose to go with them. Great guys- professional and communicative. We had a good experience and definitely will use their services again for future needs. read more

The best. We've had them come by twice within a month. Super dependable, and flexible when we found other things to haul. We love that this company supports veterans and is inclusive. They were super gracious each visit. We'll put them top of our list every time. read more

Very nice fellas, I very much liked them as people- however they damaged my floor, passage way through my kitchen and front door entry removing my fridge. They did not plan around preventing damage nor did they factor the cost to repair these items for me into the price. I asked about the damage and they just shrugged it off. So unfortunately they get an honest review about the way they left my home. I still think they should have business but they need to consider the entirety of the job and not leaving a place worse off than they found it! read more

I use GI Junk once a year to clear out the year's accumulated junk and cardboard....they are always punctual. polite and wonderful to work with! Please support our veterans!! Thanks this year to Kayley and Kevin, I appreciate you!! read more

Quick response on a early weekend morning. Transparent price schedule available online. Professional and very capable team made quick work of removing our items while taking care not to damage the home. No question i would highly recommend them and I would not hesitate to hire them again, read more

It pains me to say, but I couldn't have been more disappointed with this company. After it was clear the driver couldn't maneuver the truck without blocking access to the whole building, something people moving into and out of my building do all the time, I had to cancel. That was yesterday. Today I got a call from a manager telling me that my deposit was non-refundable. Really hoping this Mickey Mouse operation gets its act together. read more

So impressed with the service! I've used various hauling companies, all good but, GI Junk is the best. I was also impressed by the care they take packing the stuff that is reusable. I've used them twice so far and will probably hire again this summer. read more

What a great group! When we were talking over the phone about what to remove I was given options and recommendations and assured the team would assess what I needed removed and give me a fair price if it was different than expected. Diannah & Corey arrived on time and ready to dive in. There was some serious hard lifting involved but they never once complained. Friendly, fast, affordable, and great people! I will save the card and call them next time I need some help. read more

They worked their magic again. Huge pile of junk cluttering garage and yard, one visit to their site. Three days later presto-changing, the stuff was gone fifteen minutes after three strong hard-working guys arrived. I hope to make this an annual thing. No excuse to let useless, broken stuff accumulate read more

I observed a unit of GI Junk Removal illegally dumping trash in West Salem at the end of Patterson St NW on November 24th, 2021 a bit after 2:00 PM. This is completely unacceptable, unprofessional, and environmentally unfriendly. I was appalled when I saw two men in action of dumping unwanted trash from their truck bed and trailer. This is supposed to be a junk removal business, not a junk dumping business. I know I will never use this business after seeing this! read more

The Facts - You Judge: Last month I hired GI Junk Removal to remove a houseful of furniture and personal belongings along with the contents of my garage and backyard since I had sold my home. After a personal walk-through, the owner, Matthew Calhoun, had provided a written estimate of $4,570 to cover 5 trailers + 6 hrs. for labor. After their 1st day of work, the price was increased to $6,700. Yes, some furniture & belongings were added, but 5 large furniture items were removed. So I agreed to the $6,700 for 8 trailers + 6 hrs/labor in order to finish the job. The FINAL PRICE, however, ended up being $9,375, which covered 6 additional trailers + labor + $400 for a hazardous waste charge. How does the price go from 5 trailers to 12 trailers? Even after the work started and all items were surveyed in the house, the estimate went from 8 trailers to 12 trailers. I was notified of the 1st price increase but not the 2nd until my sister called on my behalf and was informed by Matthew of the increase. BUYER BEWARE! read more

The crews from GI Junk Removal were excellent! I had a LARGE eye sore of a shed and a dilapidated deck that needed to be torn down and hauled away. The men and women who came were punctual, professional, did a very thorough job and were friendly to boot! It was very reasonably priced and every single one of them had the respectable work ethic that comes with military service. I will absolutely use them again and highly recommend them. read more

G.I. Junk Removal does a phenomenal job. Not only were they able to come out 2 hours earlier than expected, but they were very efficient and finished the job quickly. I would highly recommend hiring them to remove your junk. When (I'd say if, but let's be real) we accumulate more, we will hire them again for sure. Great job! This is a combo review. I've now used them twice and am so impressed! They will be the first call anytime we need junk removed. read more

I have used this company twice since I have moved into my house, both times they have been extremely quick with communication, a fair quote, and quick removal of the items. The day of the removal they always send me a message letting me know their ETA so I know exactly when to expect them. read more

GI Junk clearly demonstrated that the nice sounding values on their website just aren't valid when tested and you are much better off finding one of the multitude of other junk removal services. We needed an estate cleared after the passing of a loved one prior to a home sale and worked directly with the owner to estimate the job with multiple conversations clarifying what GI Junk would and wouldn't do and scheduling the service. The final bill was MORE THAN 2X the original estimate with the GI Junk team telling us they'd walk off the job if we didn't pay. An updated estimate 50% more than the original was provided which we agreed to since we only had days until closing on the property and didn't have time to schedule a different company. When they finished the final bill was 50% higher again. This didn't include some extra items found during the process that they said they didn't have time to remove because they had other jobs and just left at the house. All of this despite hours of work removing items from the house that were in the original estimate to try to LOWER the bill. We had multiple conversations directly with the owner to clarify the situation, explain our experience, and offer them a chance to amicably resolve the disconnect and they refused just saying essentially "even though we don't really understand how it was so much that's what the bill said so you have to pay". Evaluating their value statements of Integrity (we are protecting our bottom line and not standing by our estimate or even what we think the job should have cost), Respect (we're walking off the job if you don't pay), Exceptional Service (here's the bill, it's not what we told you but write the check and despite trying to work this with us directly, go ahead and leave negative reviews if you have to but we aren't fixing this), Mission First (the next job is more important than finishing this job), and Compassionate Approach (too bad for you about you being in the middle of grieving and that you're out thousands of dollars but we'll tell customers we've tried to fix our process after you) they missed on every level and showed those are just words on a webpage that filters out bad reviews. read more

Absolutely wonderful service with amazing employees! I called for a quote, with an actual quote (no hidden fees, no prodding for all the financial parts-- the real deal) returned to me fast! They were able to pickup sooner than I anticipated, were prompt, and gave us updates on their arrival. I am SO pleased with GI Junk Removal-- I would highly recommend! read more

They were able to come out the same day I called, arrived on time, and were professional and easy to work with throughout. Communication was great from beginning to end. The price was fair as well. GI Junk made our lives easier! read more

Great job by GI Junk removing twelve yards of dirt from my backyard. They were fairly priced, prompt, courteous and communicated well.

They kept in contact with us about when they would arrive. They came early. They were very courteous & thoughtful. They even brought in & unwrapped our new sofa. We will definitely call them again. I'm glad I found them on Yelp. read more

I called J Dog because of the previous reviews I'd read on Yelp. I described what I needed removed and Matt quoted a price. We scheduled a time for pick up and in the interim I added to my pile. Two days before the scheduled pick up day I received a reminder text from Matt. The morning of our scheduled day, I received a text notifying me that they were on their way. They arrived exactly at the appointed time. Tony and another gentleman (I did not get his name) worked diligently loading my stuff to the trailer. The amount charged was a bit higher than was quoted (because of what I added), but the price was fair and reasonable. What a relief! I will not hesitate hiring J-Dog again. read more

They did a fast and efficient job tearing down and removing an old garden shed, and left no trace.

To say that Matt and his team are outstanding is a huge understatement. I hired him for a HUGE project, one that involved cleaning out a house after many years of junk accumulation. The project was so large that any company could have completely taken advantage of the situation and overcharged me, so I really wanted to find someone I could trust. When I saw that they were Veterans, I thought that was a perfect place to start. They did not disappoint, and even exceeded my expectations, coming well under their initial quote. It took Matt and his team almost three days to complete, yet he was always positive, smiling and joking, and none of them ever complained. Its refreshing to see a company built on character and integrity, and I will ONLY use them for future projects. read more

Did a great job, they were on time, very professional and affordable. I had quotes from other companies that were $100-$200 more. Proud to support veteran owned. read more

Sure was impressed with JDog's service. Showed up on the schedule minute. Loaded everything quickly and charged less than the estimate (how often does that happen?!). The estimate was way below that of others I contacted. Matthew, the owner of this franchise, is a military Vet, and it seems so is his crew, with one in Nat'l Guard. Great guys! read more
