Hi I’m Eduardo Torres and I am your local owner and operator of the 1-800-GOT-JUNK? franchise servicing South East Florida. I started my junk removal business in 2003 and since then we have done all kinds of junk removal from the heart of Miami to Coral Gables, Aventura, Pinecrest, Weston, Miramar and more. Remodelers, contractors, real estate agents, property managers, estate attorneys and many others have used our junk hauling service in Miami to clean out debris, office furniture, and just about any other junk one can imagine. Our 1-800-GOT-JUNK? team even handled a thirty truck load job for a national property manager on one day’s notice!
Residential customers also rely on our Miami junk hauling services. Just because there has been significant growth in the commercial sector doesn’t mean that we don’t do garage clean outs every day. It’s a big part of the business and it will continue to be so. Residential jobs also afford our team an upside that commercial business usually doesn’t—residential customers get rid of furniture and other household goods that can oftentimes be taken to charities. We’ve taken truckloads of perfectly usable furniture to charities like Women in Distress and Non-Violence Project USA.
We’ve also used our 1-800-GOT-JUNK? trucks to assist organizations like the Red Cross and AmeriCorps help hurricane victims rebuild their homes. We’ve provided junk hauling crews and removed truckloads of junk so these homes could be rebuilt. It’s definitely a "feel good" thing.
We’ve been fortunate to receive a lot of local press. In November 2004, almost a year after launching my junk removal operation in Miami, we were profiled in the weekly Business Monday Magazine and we generated enough interest to appear in other Miami area media, including the Miami Herald newspaper, The Sun-Sentinel and even a profile in Univision’s "Control" national TV program.
The office is located just off the never-ending traffic center of Miami, The Golden Glades Interchange. This is literally the highway nerve center of all of Miami-County. It is the crossroads for Interstate 95, The Florida Turnpike, Northwest 167th Street, and the the highway Miami locals love to hate, State Road 826, known here as The Palmetto. Being so close to the Golden Glades gives us convenient access to every main highway in Miami Dade and we can be anywhere in our territory within 45 minutes. It also makes it relatively easy for people to come visit us.

Address:
My name is Jeff "Happy Day" Pasternack and I own 1-800-GOT-JUNK?'s junk hauling operations in Palm Beach County. After a horrible experience with a junk removal company in the area, I opened up 1-800-GOT-JUNK? in March of 2005 with the notion that my high-touch brand of customer service would be welcomed by the community. Within a week of opening, we did a project for the City of Boca Raton where we removed six truckloads of junk from a house on Palmetto Park Road in Boca Raton. It was also hard to imagine that just a few months earlier, I had been happily toiling away as a technology consultant and as a columnist. My column, The Techno Peasant Review, was published monthly for six years in The Medical Bulletin and other magazines, such as Chiropractic Economics, Association Trends and Executive Update, ran selected pieces.
I belong to the Florida Assisted Living Affiliation (FALA), BNI, The Chambers of Commerce for West Palm Beach, Boynton Beach, Boca Raton and West Boca Raton. Our trash hauling crew work with quite a few charities in Palm Beach County, most notably Aid to Victims of Domestic Abuse (AVDA). We've helped do trash removals for many great clients, including Mizner Park, Mizner Court, Phillips Point, Gables Property Management, Classic Residences by Hyatt, Sunrise Assisted Living, Asset Specialists, Applefield Waxman and so many others.
In 2005 my 1-800-GOT-JUNK? franchise finished in the top 3 system-wide for customer service and in 2006 we finished #1. I think this reflects our relentless dedication to providing Boca Raton and Delray Beach homeowners and businesses the best customer service possible. We mercilessly regale our customers with the phrases “happy day” and "your convenience is my pleasure" to convey how serious we take customer service and I think that message is being received. Our goal is to leave nothing but smiles in our junk-free wake and based on the community's response, I think we're accomplishing that.
Our Boca Raton office is located just behind the Office Depot near Glades Road and Dixie Highway. Our West Palm Beach field office is located on Okeechobee Rd by the iHop, just east of Palm Beach Lakes Blvd.

Hello, my name is Aaron Fuller and I am the local 1-800-GOT-JUNK? franchise partner servicing cities including Fort Lauderdale, Sunrise, Tamarac, Dania, Davie, Plantation to Palm Beach Gardens, Palm Beach, Singer Island, Lake Part, Jupiter, Riviera Beach and many more! I own both the Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach Gardens 1-800-GOT-JUNK? franchises and I have been offering an easy junk removal solution for over three years. Before entering the wonderful world of junk, I owned Out To Lunch, a local restaurant located on US HWY 1. Before that I held several chef positions at The Breakers Hotel in Palm Beach. After starting my junk removal franchise in Ft. Lauderdale in October of 2005, the area was struck by a very destructive hurricane. Within weeks my crew and I had the pleasure of helping many residents and commercial clients clean up after the storm and get back to their normal lives. Since the storm, we have performed junk removals ranging from a 25 truckload job in Tamarac, a single couch in Ft. Lauderdale, yard waste clean up in Singer Island to an entire condo clean out at Old Port Cove in North Palm Beach. We’ve also done over 20 foreclosures in Loxahatchee, Jupiter and Palm Beach Gardens for several different real estate agents.
You may have seen our junk removal crews wearing blue wigs and waving on the corner of Broward and US HWY 1, at Military Trail and Northlake Blvd in Palm Beach Gardens, or you may have seen our junk removal convoy traveling to and from jobs on PGA Blvd. We have seven junk removal trucks traveling to and from jobs in your community to help our customers get rid of their junk.
We currently donate almost 30% of our junk to local charities like Faith Farm Ministries, The Good Will on Broward Blvd or The Salvation Army. We also recycle approximately 20% of the items we pick up at Delta Recycling center located just south of HWY 595 on State Road 7.
The feedback from customers in the local communities has been fantastic. As long as people have junk, I am hoping to be the one to come help them get their space back.
Our Fort Lauderdale office is located on 441 just north of Commercial Blvd and south of Atlantic Blvd one mile west of the Florida turnpike and 3 miles west of I-95.
Our Palm Beach Gardens office is located in West Palm Beach at the corner of Okeechobee blvd and Jog road just one mile west of the Florida turnpike and 4 miles west of interstate 95. If coming south from Jupiter, Palm Beach Gardens, North Palm Beach or Lake Park take I-95 and exit at Okeechobee Blvd (one exit after Palm Beach Lakes Blvd).

Address:
Hi, my name is Guy Vallagi and I’ve owned my local Coral Springs 1-800-GOT-JUNK? franchise since August of 2005. We done all kinds of junk removals from Fort Lauderdale, Coral Springs, Parkland, Margate, Coconut Creek, Pompano just to name a few places! Prior to owing my junk removal business I was the managing partner for Romanos Macaroni Grill for 11 years. I grew up in the restaurant business but I was ready for a change. I wanted to own my own business and spend more time with my family. 1-800-GOT-JUNK? was the perfect solution!
You have probably seen my junk hauling crew on Commercial Blvd east of Dixie wearing blue wigs doing some kind of dance on top of our junk trucks. Or perhaps they were on University and Atlantic Blvd close to the Coral Square Mall promoting our junk hauling service. We are very environmentally friendly, recycling almost 70% of what we pick up. For example, we recycle all metal, and bulk amount of paper goods. All our construction material is separated at the local dump and we donate all the furniture that is reusable to the local churches such as Calvary Chapel and the Humane Society. The reason I love this business is because every trash removal is different. We never know what we have to do or how clean or dirty the job is going to be.
Junk pick-up:
"I wanted to personally thank you for a job well done. Your team did a great job on the house clean up. All the junk removal was completed in one day, plus they left everything neat and clean. I can honestly say that your junk hauling crew is first class."-- Kirk, Owner
"I would like to compliment Aaron and James on the wonderful job they did at my parents' condo. Your junk removal service was fantastic. From the first phone call to the completion of the junk removal itself, I could not have been more impressed with 1-800-GOT-JUNK?"-- Bonnie, West Palm Beach, Oct. 2007
"To everyone and everybody who is contemplating using Jeff and 1-800-GOT-JUNK?'s trash hauling services, I am here to tell you it is the BEST service I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. I downsize seniors from their present homes into independent or assisted living communities, and sometimes even when they have passed away I am called in to help the family. One of the functions of my job is to dispose of unwanted junk that is of no value. Needless to say this can be a difficult task to do. But, Jeff and his junk removal crew are wonderful! They are there on time, they do the job with the utmost of respect for the client, and they are professional, careful not to damage any property that is left behind. And best of all they really do everything they say they are going to do. There has never been an instance when I have been disappointed in their performance. There are not enough words to express how terrific 1-800-GOT-JUNK? and Jeff Pasternack's junk removal services are."-- Lisa, Vice President of Finance & Adminstration
"I would highly recommend 1-800-GOT-JUNK? to anyone who is doing a construction project. Very clean and professional. They provide the debris removal crew and the truck to pick up the construction trash. No more renting a truck and paying guys to load it and dump it. The price was about the same. Now, there's no more hassle and we can move on with the more important stuff, like finishing the project."-- Tom, Project Manager
"The junk removal crew was on time and very friendly. They made the job look easy."-- Irene, Pompano, Feb. 2008
"We were closing 4 floors worth of office space in West Palm Beach. 1-800-GOT-JUNK? did almost 20 truckloads in just a few days. They were fast and professional and it made my job much easier."-- Nancy, Facilities Manager
"Our first experience with 1-800-GOT-JUNK? was a great one! It was on a condo demolition job where we needed certificates of insurance delivered on the day of the site clean up. Jeff delivered within hours of our request and he and his team of junk haulers have been star performers for us ever since. 1-800-GOT-JUNK? removed our construction waste safely and efficiently, which instilled confidence in us and allowed us to focus on our business instead. We will continue to call Jeff and his junk removal crew whenever we've got junk!"-- Debbie, Vice President
"I wanted to thank you, your fellow franchise partners, and your junk removal crew for the incredible work you did yesterday. As you saw, Ms. Smith was overjoyed with the cleanup, and now we will be able to ask the city to drop or reduce her hefty fine. You were all unfailingly positive, polite and upbeat, and it was a pleasure working with you on this matter."-- Shane, Attorney
"I tell every guy I know in the business about 1-800-GOT-JUNK?. They really do a great job of junk removal. Over the years they have always kept the same great standard in customer service. Some companies work great when they are starting out, but these guys have really kept the same high quality of service all along. I would know, I use them all the time."-- Gonzalo, Owner
"1-800-GOT-JUNK?'s junk hauling crew really adapted to the way we needed to work. I also really appreciated that when things didn't go perfectly, they called me first. They didn't wait for me to call. They proactively made adjustments without my having to complain. It was a huge job and they did it with very little advance notice."-- Paula, Risk Manager
"We called several companies to come do estimates. Two showed up, but 1-800-GOT-JUNK? was the only one who got there on time as promised. The manager was very professional. It was a very big job and we had a deadline. I kept asking if they were sure the junk removal would be completed by Friday and they convinced me that they could. It took them three days but they finished on schedule as promised."-- Jamie
"I had to call personally to let you know what a great job your junk hauling team did. At first I was surprised that the junk removers were two women, but they did a really, really amazing job. We were clearing out a very nice penthouse and they were so careful to not damage anything or to get anything dirty. They really did a complete job of cleaning when they were done. To top it all off, they were so, so nice to talk to. What a completely pleasant experience. It's nothing compared to what I expected."-- Vivian, Owner
"I have used your trash removal several times and you have been great. I appreciate you guys always being on time and offering my clients and I fair prices."-- Karen, Real Estate Agency
"I have had problems in the past removing junk like crates and other things from the port. Since I have found you guys, my life has been so much easier. I call and you come and haul the junk away. Thanks, 1-800-GOT-JUNK?!"-- John, Fort Lauderdale, Nov. 2007
"I just wanted to write to you guys to let you know what a great experience I had with your trash removal services. Once the junk removal crew was here, David was extremely patient as I went through all my items. The service was great and I will tell everyone about it. "-- Luenell, Fort Lauderdale, Oct. 2007
"Thanks for the great trash hauling service. I had to close on my house last Friday and my friends never came to get rid of the leftover items that had to be gone before closing. I called at 2pm and you guys were there by 3pm, hauling away all the junk and cleaned up. I would not have been able to close on time if you guys were not there to help."-- James, Plantation, Aug. 2007
"I love your junk hauling service and will be calling you back again very soon."-- Scott, Property Manager
"You guys made this project go as fast as it has and helped us finish the home on schedule. Thanks."-- Tony, Project Manager
Working with the city of Boca Raton, we removed six truckloads of junk that was stored at a house six blocks from city hall. We remove large quantities of rotting food and all sorts of disgusting things. Watch the video on YouTube!
Michael Stolar, a Boynton Beach resident, had 1-800-GOT-JUNK? come out to do a property clean up of his mother's home after six months of effort. He was shocked when 1-800-GOT-JUNK? found an old coffee can filled with jewelry. "I couldn't ask for better people to come do this job," Stolar said.
Joyce Smith of West Palm Beach had her home devastated by hurricanes and the city was fining her $50 a day. 1-800-GOT-JUNK? cleared out three truckloads of debris at no charge. "Oh, this is so good, my grandchildren can play in my yard again."
Miami franchise owner, Eduardo Torres, received a phone call from the Miami Dade chapter of the American Red Cross. They were looking for someone who would volunteer help to remove "some household items" from a house whose roof had been damaged by one of the hurricanes. It was a community project and they were looking for help from a number of companies. We quickly agreed to help out. In hindsight it wasn't surprising that the original estimate of about a half a truck became four full trucks of debris and two days of work, but we were happy to do it. What was pleasantly surprising was that we were recognized by The Red Cross and AmeriCorps as one the two principal contributors to this community effort. At the work completion ceremony, in the presence of Miami-Dade's mayor, Carlos Alvarez, we were one of two companies that received plaques in recognition of our efforts and contributions towards the site clean up.
We believe in helping out the community and one of the ways we do that is by participating with local radio stations in their community efforts. Whether it's blood drives by The Coast 97.3 FM or food drives by Big 105.9 FM, we have given free junk removal services and incentives for people to donate blood and/or food. The winner of the last food drive by 105.9 FM received a full truck of junk removal for free. Obviously they were extremely pleased.
Our community efforts extend to sponsoring local sports teams for kids. The past year we sponsored a Weston AYSO youth soccer team. They were kind enough to give us a plaque as a token of their gratitude.
