Before his career in the Denver junk removal industry, Paul was a general manager in the steel business. Paul knew at some point that he wanted to go into business for himself. After researching various businesses, he chose Junk King. Instilling the values and commitment to community service that Paul based his business on to his daughter and her husband, long-time Junk King general manager, David Donovan. David and Melissa moved into the ownership position as King and Queen of Junk King Denver in 2021. Paul started his junk removal service business in October of 2011. He immediately saw opportunities to grow the business. Another goal for him was to develop young people starting out in the work world. As he grew his staff, he developed a mentoring and training program that concentrated on customer service. It’s a win-win for Junk King and the communities around Denver. He realized that he had accomplished that goal when he started receiving reviews that said his staff are friendly and professional. David states, “When my employees make clients happy, they are doing their job. We just made their lives easier. They called us and their clutter is gone.” Clients really appreciate Paul and his employees, especially property owners and managers.
