Meet the King of Junk Removal in Portland
Jason Edge, the owner of Junk King Portland, started his journey with Junk King in 2016 but says that the passion for recycling came much earlier. Jason drove with his mother for 10 miles from their rural Pennsylvania home whenever a big enough load was ready for dropoff at the local recycling center.
Jason remains passionate about recycling to this day, except that when he recycles, he prefers a big red truck!
Junk Removal In Portland is About Serving A Community Through Environmental Stewardship
Jason knew that he ultimately wanted to move to Portland, and he deliberated over finding a business that matched his values. There are plenty of business opportunities in the Portland Metro area, of course, but Jason wouldn’t stop until he found a company, not a huge company either, that shared his values and put the customer first. He found that in Junk King. When Jason talked to the CEO of Junk King, Michael Andreaccchi, he left impressed with Junk King’s dedication to customer service.
Delivering great customer service means providing exceptional value for local customers. ‘We have a great group of guys who have been with me since the beginning’ Jason explains. ‘We don’t have a lot of turnover because we just have fun’. While no two jobs are exactly the same, there’s an enthusiasm about the work at Junk King Portland and a commitment to really listening to the customer and finding out what each job needs: ‘there’s no company in the metro area that even comes close to what we provide when it comes to customer service’.
Blending a dedication to unparalleled customer service and environmental stewardship were crucial for Jason. Jason explains it like this: ‘The commitment to recycling and taking care of people’ were top priorities. ‘That’s really what it comes down to’. Recycling, repurposing, and donating wherever possible and providing the maximum value for Portland Metro area residents is what keeps Jason motivated. ‘There are so many people that just need strong guys with a truck’ to haul stuff away, at the end of the day’.
What It Means To Work With The Pros of Junk Removal in Portland
Jason and his team have the time, resources, and equipment to haul away bulky furniture, appliances, refrigerators, hot tubs and other kinds of residential junk in addition to the full range of commercial junk. Owner of Junk King Jason Edge sums it all up:
‘We pride ourselves on customer service and going above and beyond customer expectations.
Every job is important to us and it shows in the responses we receive every day.’

- Mattresses

Commercial Junk Removal in Portland, OR
Junk King owner Jason Edge does a lot of B2B work: ‘We work with everybody from apartment complexes as their preferred vendor to storage facilities, property managers, and various big buildings downtown.’ Some of these buildings are pretty expensive, so they have insurance requirements, and business owners need to know the job will be done correctly the first time.
Junk King Portland’s professionals are insured and committed to excellence.
Jason is also sensitive to the needs of businesses and realizes that ‘time is money’ in that a job that isn’t completed on time and efficiently can hurt a business’s bottom line. ‘If you can’t rent that apartment in a couple of days [because of junk piled up somewhere], you’re losing money’, Jason says. Clients move on, renters move out, and businesses need their junk removed as old technology is replaced by newer technology. That’s why Junk King Portland can help with the following:
- Office Furniture
- Commercial Equipment
- Commercial scrap metal
- Property Management Cleanout
- Storage Facility Cleanouts
- Foreclosure Cleanouts
- Construction debris
- And much more!
Junk King Portland Partners with Area Business Leaders
The important thing to bear in mind is that keeping a junk removal job ‘in house’ may not save you money. Why’s that? Because your employee’s time is actually an expense, and often a liability is everyone is not fully insured, as junk removal professionals are. When doing the jobs enumerated above ‘in house’, there are additional problems of finding a large enough truck and locating the right facility for disposal.
Junk King is committed to environmental stewardship and has the manpower and knowledge to get things done right the first time. Owner Jason Edge has forged relationships with local vendors, charities, and recycling centers so he knows ahead of time where, for instance, construction debris can be potentially recycled and where appliances might be donated.
Partnering With Portland Businesses in “Going Green”
In a typical haul, Junk King will recycle upwards of two-thirds of all items taken. Scrap metal recycling is becoming a business unto itself as iron, copper, aluminum, brass, and steel can often be put back into use; beams and wires can also find a second or third use elsewhere. Plumbing fixtures made of metal can also prove helpful for other manufacturers, and keeping these items out of landfills is always good.
How does a commercial junk removal company reuse, recycle, and repurpose?
- The crew start by separating out regular junk from recyclable materials as we load the trucks.
- Take it back to the warehouse and let the pro’s go to work—they know how to process metals, textiles, appliances, and old furniture so that it can be broken down in the most environmentally responsible way or even find a new home.
- Junk King Portland closely partners with recycling centers and many local charities to ensure the longest life for still-usable items, keeping items out of landfills.
If you need commercial junk removal, call 1-888-888-5865 (JUNK) or book online and save $20. (If you go the online route, check out the online pricing tool.) You can also text a picture to 1-737-888-5865. Once your appointment is established, a driver will call 15 minutes before the big red truck arrives at your property or workplace.
