Meet the Owner
As the owner of Junk King Tarrant County, George Berry came into it with an extensive background in operations management and customer service. He quickly learned how to best combine his expertise in both customer service and operations with junk removal and found that he was able to create a job that he loves.
When asked, Berry pointed out that, “It’s about having the right crew with the right attitude to take care of every customer’s needs. It’s about having value for those you serve.”
How the Business of Removing Junk in Tarrant County Began
Before learning of Junk King, George had sold his former home and had a large amount of “junk” now stored in his garage.
Because he didn’t know that there was a service he could call that would send a crew in a large truck to haul his stuff away in a single day, George instead spent several weekends making numerous trips to get rid of his unwanted old belongings and junk in the garage. If he had known that he could’ve simply gone online and booked an appointment, he definitely would have done so!
He soon realized, however, that there was a big market for the kind of service Junk King provides. In fact, there are more than 700,000 households in Tarrant County, not to mention the thousands of businesses – people just like George looking for help getting rid of junk before making a big move or needing to clean up.
George checked out Junk King, was impressed with what he found, and decided that he could help Tarrant County residents get rid of their junk and not waste their weekends as he once did.
And today, your junk can be removed, often on the same day, thanks to George and Junk King Tarrant County.
Junk Removal in Tarrant County is About Serving the Community
George is motivated in large part by a desire to give back to the community of Tarrant County, Texas, which has given him so much. One of the qualities that sets his business apart from similar companies is its obvious commitment to caring for people out there who “might need a little help.”
Junk King Tarrant County is committed to the principle of enabling people to have the home that they’ve always wanted by helping them remove unwanted items.
George and his team maintain a close connection with the community and local organizations help by keeping Junk King Tarrant County aware of their needs. As George puts it, there are folks out there who “can give us a call and we’ll help them out.”
One of the many ways Berry and his team help the local community is through recycling.
“We do try to recycle and repurpose,” George says. “We recycle mattresses. We recycle the metal. For example, when we get bicycles, we put them to the side, and we have this group come and pick up the bikes and they fix them up and give them to kids who can’t afford bikes.
We also do a lot of work with veterans’ organizations. Say you have a couch that you don’t need anymore. If somebody is in a difficult situation, they might need that. So, we try to repurpose. We just had a homeless guy who got his first apartment, and we had a futon couch, so he could use the couch as a bed. And we happened to have a bicycle here, so he had a place to sleep, and he got transportation from us for free.”
To provide this kind of service to the community, George and his crew consistently work to nurture the relationships that have with the people that work with them, which means always providing top-quality service to their Tarrant County customers.
“Customer service is our number one priority, and if workers can’t treat the customers right, then we don’t want them, even though they might be able to load more junk faster than anybody else.”
Customer service truly matters at Junk King Tarrant County.
What It Means to Work with the Pros of Junk Removal in Tarrant County
For owner George Berry, it means two different things,
“We’re helping people get their homes back by getting the junk out of there. And two, we’re helping out people with the furniture, the bicycles, by recycling metal, recycling boxes – things like that. We’re actually doing and making a difference since a lot of that stuff would just end up in the landfill.”
Service, efficiency, affordability, and an overriding concern for the community and the environment – these are what put the pros of junk removal in Tarrant County in a league of their own. Working with Junk King Tarrant County also means having a wide range of comprehensive junk removal services to choose from.
“We offer two different services. One is our full service, in which we send two guys out with a truck that holds 18 cubic yards. You point at what you want gone and my guys take it for you. We discuss pricing upfront so there’s no surprises. And if you don’t want to pay the price, then no harm, no foul. We just leave it with you as an estimate.
The other thing that we have is the roll-off dumpsters for when you need more time, and you want to go through different items and do it yourself. We can drop off our 12-yard, roll off dumpster and leave it there for three days and you fill it up as you have time. And we come and pick it up after the three days.”
George also points out that about half of all the customers that call on Junk King Tarrant County become repeat customers, which speaks to a high level of customer satisfaction. It also speaks to the fact that they can rely on Junk King Tarrant County for small junk removal jobs as well as large-scale cleanouts.

If you live somewhere in Tarrant County and the Fort Worth area, you already know that disposing of junk from your home can be challenging. And you’re not alone in that – homeowners and renters throughout Tarrant County periodically find themselves stuck with unwanted items they need to dispose of.
But how do you do that without driving across the county or if you can’t move it all by yourself?

That means that not only can we come to your home and haul away broken-down appliances, unwanted furniture, old bicycles, broken toys, and other household junk, but we take just about everything and anything you need to dispose of (except for hazardous waste.)
And what kinds of things, you ask?
Few people like moving furniture. And fewer still relish the thought of trying to load it into the back of a truck or onto a trailer. But if you need to dispose of old furniture, you can’t just leave it on the curb. So, if you don’t want to – or can’t – haul it away yourself, what do you do?
Call Junk King Tarrant County for your old furniture removal. We’ll take items such as:
- Couches
- Sofas
- Mattresses
- Chairs
- Desks
- Tables
- Bookcases
- Armoires
- And more!
For example, when you buy new furniture or a new bed and mattress it’s not always easy to get rid of your old mattress. And if you’re wondering if it can be put out with your household trash, the answer is ‘no.’ Fortunately, Junk King Tarrant County can take old mattresses and other bulky waste.
Have you ever had to remove and install a new dryer or, worse, a new washing machine? The excitement and joy of having a new appliance quickly fades when you’re hefting it into place in your laundry room! And removing and disposing of old appliances is no better.
And getting rid of bulky appliances can often mean renting a vehicle for the job and then finding the nearest landfill. You run the risk of damaging your vehicle in the process or risk injuring yourself by trying to lift something like a refrigerator.
Fortunately, the expert teams at Junk King Tarrant County can quickly and easily haul off all your old appliances including:
- Window air conditioners
- Dishwashers
- Water heaters
- Refrigerators
- Large freezers
- Stoves and ovens
- Microwaves
- Washing machines and dryers
- Other appliances
Junk King Tarrant County has the right equipment and experience to get the job done right. And because almost all household appliances are made from aluminum, steel, glass, and plastics, this means that they can be recycled by the experienced cleanup professionals at Junk King.
Electronic waste, or e-waste, is any electrical or electronic equipment that’s been discarded. This includes working and broken items that are thrown in the garbage. Often, if the item stops working, it will be thrown away. However, e-waste is particularly dangerous when dumped into landfills due to toxic chemicals that naturally leach from the metals inside when buried.
So, what can you do with the old electronic and digital devices, tools, and gadgets piling up in your home?
Just give us a call and we can take care of your e-waste, and recycle a majority of it. Junk King Tarrant County e-waste removal includes:
- Computers
- Monitors
- Printers
- Copy Machines
- Shredders
- Televisions
- All types of e-waste
Yard waste is sometimes known as biological or organic waste because it is made up of plant material as is often compostable. If you find yourself with unmanageable piles of yard waste that you have no way to dispose of properly, just call us.
Yard waste removal at Junk King Tarrant County can include:
- Glass clippings
- Shrubs
- Bushes
- Wood chips
- Branches
- Firewood
- Lumber
- Sod
- Soil
- Old planters
- And More
Not all yard waste is made up of materials that were once growing in your yard, however. Another type of yard waste that Junk King Tarrant County takes includes various ‘non-organic’ items, such as:
- Shingles
- Corrugated iron
- Windows
- Frames
- Plasterboard
- Fencing
- Sheds
- Gnomes & Yard Art

Whether it’s the result of an estate cleanup, a foreclosure cleanout, or simply cleaning out a storage rental unit, the amount of junk and rubbish you may need to get rid of can be overwhelming. Residential cleanouts can be required for a variety of reasons such as a family member passing away or moving to a new home.
However, sometimes the need is for cleaning out an excessive accumulation of, well, everything!
Hoarding can be a problem for people for several reasons. Sometimes it is simply the result of habitually holding on to everything and this eventually results in a home that is so crowded with junk that it is hard to live with. For others it is a more serious issue. Either way, the results can be unhealthy and even dangerous.
Fortunately, the team at Junk King Tarrant County has what it takes to handle all types of residential and property cleanouts.
Commercial Junk Removal
If you’re working in a business setting and have needed to get rid of old office desks or an unwanted credenza, you know the annoyance and frustration of learning that your company’s commercial waste management company won’t take them.
Although many waste management providers will arrange for a special pick up, this usually means paying additional fees and having to make an appointment for the pickup. While this may be fine for a one-off cleanup need, if you have large commercial junk removal needs frequently, this arrangement isn’t practical.
What you need is a better way to get it done.
Unfortunately, for most commercial junk disposal, there are really only two options for getting rid of your large junk or debris items:
- You can try to do it with your own staff, or
- You hire someone else to do it for you
Yes, you may not want to pay to have it done, but the fact is that “doing it yourself” may not result in savings. That’s because using your employee’s time for the job still costs you money.
And it can take quite a bit of time.
Each trip requires you or your employees to haul out the debris and junk, load it onto a truck or van, and then take it to a suitable facility for disposal. Then you have to unload it and eventually return to your workplace.
In fact, your actual cost is doubled since time spent loading, hauling, and dumping is time taken away from doing the work you or your employees are supposed to be doing. In other words, every “dump run” results in a loss of productivity that costs you money.
The good news is that Junk King Tarrant County specializes in providing efficient and cost-effective commercial junk removal services.
