Your Local Ottawa Junk Removal Specialists!
How many old computers do you have lying around your home or office? Go ahead, add them up. What about old TVs that might not even turn on anymore? Old fax machines, cell phones, monitors? Maybe even an antique VCR? What can you do with them? You know you shouldn't throw them out, because electronics contain heavy metals and other hazardous materials that are a danger to the environment. So what can you do?
We have an answer. We're 1-800-GOT-JUNK?, and we are your Ottawa electronics removal solution. We're here in your neighborhood to help you with electronics recycling and all your other junk removal problems.
Electronics recycling can be tough because it comes with so many environmental rules, and for good reason. If an old computer or even a cellphone gets dumped in a landfill, it puts the local groundwater at risk, since dangerous chemicals like lead, mercury and cadmium can leach into it. At 1-800-GOT-JUNK?, we go out of our way to recycle all your electronics correctly. We know all the regulations, and we are responsible to meet them all. We know how to recycle each separate piece of equipment you have, and we're committed to keeping them out of landfills whenever possible.
To that end, we sort through your electronics to pull out any items that local nonprofits or schools here in Ottawa might find useful. We donate items for refurbishment whenever possible, and we take care of all those hazardous materials. After all, we've been providing trusted junk removal since 1989, and we recycled before it was cool.
Ottawa Electronics Removal & Recycling
We make it easy. All you have to do is give us a call at 1-800-GOT-JUNK? We come at a time that's convenient for you — and we show up on time, even giving you a call 15 to 30 minutes out. Our crews drive clean trucks, they wear tidy uniforms, and they always have a smile on their faces.
Then you show us what we're up against. We'll give you a firm quote on the spot. No hidden charges. No last-minute add-ons. What you agree to pay is what you pay.
Next, we get to work. Just point, and junk disappears. Sometimes we can even take your electronics junk away on a same-day basis. Whether you want to get rid of that old printer that doesn't connect to any of your current computers or that gigantic tube TV that some relative foisted off on you, we'll take it all away. And we even sweep up after ourselves when we're done. We also take any kinds of scrap metal!
Just Point & Junk Disappears!
We know you have other clutter around your home or office besides just e-waste, and we can help you with that, too. Are you moving? Once you've cleared your old location and you're stunned at the volume of junk left behind, we can clear it out for you. Are you remodeling? Ask us to handle the construction debris so you don't have to have a dumpster on the street. Are you selling a home or renting an apartment? We'll help you get it ready for showing, clearing all the junk that former residents or tenants left behind.
We'll sort your junk for recycling, put it all in bags and make it disappear. You don't have to lift a finger (or strain your back). All you have to do is call us.
From Cumberland North to Kanata, from Aylmer to the airport, we're your neighbors here on Ottawa, happy to help you take care of electronics recycling and removal, as well as reducing clutter and handling all your other junk removal needs. We want to save you time, money and hassle. Do you want the pleasure of saying "Goodbye, Junk. Hello, Relief"? Then give us a call at 1-800-GOT-JUNK? to get your free, no-obligation quote today.

Getting Our Kids to Remove Junk
Two 13 year old boys spent the day "on the job" as part of a "Take Your Child to Work Day". This meant our crew had two extra junk removers. Joshua, the franchise owners' son, and his friend Alexander, spent the day sweeping floors, picking up and loading junk and household garbage, and doing door-hangers. They finished the day with a wave alongside six junk pickup trucks.
Camping With Ottawa Boy Scouts
Being good boy scouts! It's always fun and energizing to give back to the community. Our 1-800-GOT-JUNK? team of junk removers were at camp with a group of local boy scouts. We helped them understand the benefits of assisting others in the community. It was a great weekend with the boys!
Thanks for the Love! Actual customer reviews (typos and all ;)
