Our Local Operators
Junk Removal - Detroit
Tom Todoroff
Territory: Junk Removal - Detroit
Address:
Hi, I'm Tom Todoroff and I'm the owner operator of the Detroit area franchise of 1-800-GOT-JUNK?. We remove unwanted items from all around town, including Farmington Hills, Novi, Plymouth, Northville, Canton, Livonia, Royal Oak, Southfield and Detroit, just to name some of the areas we service.
After a 30 year career in the sound and communications industry in the Detroit Metropolitan area, my brother George and I decided to diversify. Wow, did we diversify! I have adopted the junk removal and recycling business as my new career. I have enjoyed the challenge of providing great customer service in the junk removal industry - one that is not known for professionalism.
I have gotten to know the Detroit communities through various community events and by joining some local associations including the Plymouth Chamber of Commerce, the Farmington Hills Chamber of Commerce and the Royal Oak Chamber of Commerce. While I knew going in to the junk removal business that recycling would be a part of this venture, I hadn't realized that the future of junk removal lies in recycling and diversion from landfills. We recycle metals, papers, cardboard and other items at places like SOCCRA in Royal Oak Michigan. E-waste (electronic waste) sometimes goes to Classic Computer Recovery on Ford Rd. in Garden City, MI. Batteries and lamps with mercury go to places like Battery Solutions Inc. on Michigan Ave. in Wayne, MI. It is a nice feeling to know that we are doing our part to help the environment.
At work and at home I was always somewhat of a pack-rat and now I see that I'm not alone. We remove items from homes and businesses that just take up space and keep homeowners from enjoying the space they have and businesses from being as productive as possible. Our 1-800-GOT-JUNK? team of junk removers can be seen around town in our shiny blue junk hauling trucks or even at a busy intersection wearing blue wigs and waving to potential customers.
The Detroit franchise is located in Farmington Hills, MI. We are west of Orchard Lake Rd., east of Farmington Rd., south of Twelve(12) Mile Rd., north of I-696 freeway. We are one mile north of the Orchard Ridge Campus of Oakland Community College (OCC) and five miles east of Twelve Oaks Mall. For easy access, we are four miles east of the I-275, I-96, I-696, M-5 interchange.

Junk Removal - Anchor Bay
Steve & Giovanna Briggs
Territory: Junk Removal - Anchor Bay
Address:
Hi! We are Steve and Giovanna Briggs, your local 1-800-GOT-JUNK? owners and operators. We offer our junk removal service to the greater Lake Orion, Clarkston and Oxford areas. You can see our 1-800-GOT-JUNK? trucks parked at our office on 1620 Lapeer Rd between Waldon and Clarkston in Lake Orion. It's across from the Beaumont Medical Building and next to Chicago Brothers Pizza. We are members of the Clarkston Chamber of Commerce and are always looking for new ways to help the community and participate in community events. You may have seen us in the Clarkston Labor Day Parade and you can look for us in the March of Dimes Walk at Metro Beach! We frequently donate items we pick up to Salvation Army and Grace Centers for Hope. Prior to owning a 1-800-GOT-JUNK? franchise, Giovanna worked full-time for eight years at TCF Bank in Rochester Hills, and Steve worked full-time for 12 years at the Palace of Auburn Hills. 1-800-GOT-JUNK? is the coolest franchise to own and work for. We see some crazy things and get pretty dirty at times! One memorable garbage hauling job was when we cleaned out an elderly woman's river bed because she was worried the branches and debris that had collected were going to cause a flood in her basement!

Junk Removal - Macomb County
Tim & Deb Jones
Territory: Junk Removal - Macomb County
Address:
Hi, we are Tim and Deb Jones and we opened our 1-800-GOT-JUNK? junk removal service in Macomb County and the Grosse Pointe communities in September 2006. After successful careers in the advertising agency business, we wanted to start an entrepreneurial venture. When 1-800-GOT-JUNK? was profiled in the New York Times Small Business section in May 2006 we were intrigued. We researched 1-800-GOT-JUNK? and the more we learned about the company, culture and business model, we knew we found the right business.
You may have seen our 1-800-GOT-JUNK? trucks parked in Sterling Heights at Henriksen Golf Range on Van Dyke (also our office location) or at the BP Station on Vernier Road and I-94. We make frequent appearances, waving and wearing our blue wigs, along Hall Road in Sterling Heights, Shelby and Utica. If you live in any of the Grosse Pointe communities, you'll see our ads on grocery carts at Kroger stores. Those of you frequenting the new MJR Cinemas at Partridge Creek will be able to view our in-theater ad on the big screen!
The best part of junk hauling is donating all the usable items we pick up. All donations are either new or gently-used items. We take clothing and toys to the Salvation Army, and home and office furniture, appliances, kitchen wares, light fixtures and rugs to Habitat for Humanity. We also donate all the old cell phones we pick up, then they're refurbished and used by local women's shelters. We are proud of our affiliation with COTS (Coalition on Temporary Shelter) in Detroit. Our 1-800-GOT-JUNK? franchise is donating the trucks and time necessary to pickup all donations for the COTS Clean Sweep.
Recycling is a priority for our franchise. Old appliances, electrical cords, motors, metal, paper, books, cardboard and batteries are recycled (www.go-glr.com). The donating and recycling we do is very important. It's a tremendous opportunity for others to benefit from having these items available to them.
Our office is located on Van Dyke Avenue half a mile south of Hall Road at Henriksen's Golf Range.

Customer Testimonials
"When I called 1-800-GOT-JUNK? the service I received was so much better than I expected. I needed some furniture and old appliances removed from my basement. They came the very same day and all I had to do was sit back and watch them do their thing. Fast, friendly, and efficient. They informed me that the furniture would be donated to someone who could use it and that the appliances would be recycled. I will not hesitate to use you again and I have already told all my friends about the service."-- Ellie, Commerce Twp., Feb. 2008
"What a service. We needed to move out of our existing location by the end of the week, so we scheduled a junk removal company for Thursday. Thursday came and went and no one showed up. We called the company and there was no answer. We had to be out by the end of business Friday. One of our employees mentioned that he had seen some junk removal guys in blue wigs at Michigan Ave. and Telegraph Rd. and thought the name was 1-800-GOT-JUNK?. We called Friday morning and you know the rest! Not only did you provide same day service, your employees did it professionally and with a smile. We were looking at losing our rental deposit and you saved the day. Let me assure you that you have tremendous employees and you provide a great service. Thank you."-- George, President
C.S.D., Inc.
Dearborn, Nov. 2007
"'Knock your socks off' customer service is the only way to describe the folks who took care of me yesterday. I've been serving the public for 23 years and I've seen the worst, from retailing to contracting, and I just don't expect this kind of service. Kind, professional, friendly, quick, and they pointed out a few items I had forgotten. I couldn't afford a full truck, so we worked on the items that I knew my city would not pick up. Please, please give the team a raise and treat them well. They are gems - you don't see this kind of professionalism in the service industry anymore. I have about 40 1-800-GOT-JUNK? magnets and I'm passing them out to everyone I know. Keep up the outstanding service!"-- Linnea, Ferndale, Aug. 2007
"I can't adequately express how grateful we are to you and your team for helping us 'recapture' our basement. Your staff was on-time, extremely courteous and very efficient, and to top it all off you even swept the floors when you were done. Thank you, thank you, thank you!"-- LouAnne, Grosse Pointe Park, July 2007
"I am writing to let you know that I think that you have an excellent staff of young people at your 1-800-GOT-JUNK? office at 27620 Farmington Road. I am a nurse that works in the office next to them. Every time I go by or come into the office I am greeted with a smile. I am always extended a warm welcome and information about the company. I recently asked them if they had a dolly I could borrow to move a small refrigerator down the hall. The young man I approached told me that he would have a dolly the next day. When I arrived at work, I was informed that the young man actually delivered the refrigerator down the hall, as promised. If I had a company, I would hire all these people. They appear dedicated, friendly, enjoy their work, and are an asset to the whole industry with their pleasantry. I just feel you should know how special they are."-- Suzanne, Farmington Hills, March 2007
"Quickest I've ever seen. So great, we had so much stuff we didn't know what to do with. You were also reasonable. I've already recommended you to everybody I know eagerly awaiting to do a basement cleanout."-- Roy, Grosse Pointe Park, Nov. 2007
"The whole experience from start to finish was very pleasant. From the call center agent who booked my job to the 1-800-GOT-JUNK? truck pulling out of my driveway. When they called me to tell me what time they would be at my house, they actually asked me if I wanted them to bring me something to drink! That's service!"-- Jessica, Clarkston, Jan. 2008
"The truck team was on time, looked great and did a fantastic job! The service industry is lacking in customer service and they could take a lesson from 1-800-GOT-JUNK?"-- Ken, Lake Orion, Feb. 2008
"Amazing service, all went truly great. Giovanna and the truck team crew went above and beyond! Excellent job!"-- Char, Mt. Clemens, March 2008
"They did a fantastic job! I can actually park in my garage now!"-- Amber, Clarkston, March 2008
"Wow, what a great service ... same day, dependable and you cleaned up!"-- Vice President, Divisonal Manager
Best Bank
"They did a great job, well worth it. The price was fair and when I went back to the house everything was great ... fabulous job!"-- Joe, Macomb, June 2007

Featured On AM 1270 WXYT
1-800-GOT-JUNK? loves to help people and businesses solve their junk removal and recycling problems. Our biggest challenge is to get the word out about our junk hauling services. It was a great pleasure for our junk disposal services to be featured on Adam Helfman's Hire It Done program on AM 1270 WXYT in Detroit. Adam specializes in guiding people to the home improvement solution that is right for them. Not only was it a great opportunity to let people know about our junk hauling service, but it was a chance to help people find solutions to things like prepping their homes for sale or their remodeling efforts. We can help you with your garage cleanouts and remove clutter from your home!

Another sister, Chris, works full-time as Assistant Operations Manager. Brother-in-law, Bob (Carol's husband), and nephew, Kevin (Chris' son), work weekends on the junk hauling trucks. Did you get all that?!
Find Us Next To Henriksen's Golf Range!
Our Macomb County franchise office is located at a driving range, Suites on the Green is the name outside of the building.
