Victoria & Southern Vancouver Island

A different approach to
junk removal.

A little less clutter. A lot more room.

We remove unwanted household and business items with an emphasis on reuse.

Send photos so we can confirm what we can take. When a load includes approved garbage or dump-bound items, Priority & Project Pickup can include dump-fee protection. Quotes and bookings are completed by email.

How it works

Start with
a few photos.

Every pickup begins with a photo review so we can confirm the items, capacity, access, and right service level. Text or call with a quick question; use email when you are ready for a quote or booking.

01

Email your request

Send photos, your pickup address, access details, and preferred date. Email is required for all bookings.

02

We review the job

We confirm what we can take, recommend the right service level, and provide a clear quote.

03

Confirm by email

Once the details and timing work for you, your pickup is confirmed through email.

04

We handle the pickup

We collect the approved items. Contactless customers can receive a completion photo.

What we pick up

Approved items.
Clear limits.

Whenever practical, usable items are kept in circulation instead of being treated as waste. Every request is reviewed by photo before booking.

We can often take

  • Packed boxes and household goods
  • Clothing, shoes, books, and media
  • Kitchenware, décor, lamps, and artwork
  • Toys, small accessories, and storage containers
  • Small working electronics
  • Compact, one-person furniture

Unsure about an item?

Due to our current vehicle capacity, some items may be declined based on their size or weight. Send us a few photos and we’ll let you know before booking.

Close to home

Serving Victoria and Southern Vancouver Island.

We provide selective smaller-load pickup and removal across the region. Our SUV can often reach tight driveways, underground parking, condos, apartments, and storage facilities more easily than a large truck. Travel, timing, access, and job size are reviewed before we confirm a quote.

01

Local pickups

Victoria-area requests are prioritized around route and availability.

02

Access planning

Share parking, stairs, elevator, gate, and building details in advance.

03

Multiple trips

Approved larger volumes may fit the Priority & Project service.
